Hey Peeps,
Well, just when thought I knew just about everything about Roxette, this pops up today. I was looking for information on the Swedish singer Carola and found her International site at: http://carolainternational.tripod.com/
Remember the article on TDR about mid-December, about how Marie apparently refused to sing at the same event as Carola? Well, that just got me curious about her so I finally got a chance to look up some info on her. So, I’m looking through the sites list of about 80 real audio songs, and what do I see? A song called “Every Beat Of My Heart” written by E Johnson and P GESSLE! I was shocked because I had never heard of Per writing anything for her and no one had mentioned it as a response to the article on TDR. I’m assuming this is not another “P” Gessle. Listening to the song, it sounds like it really could be from Per. It sounds like something from the POP or LS era (especially POP), which makes sense because Carola released the song in 1990. So, I’m sure someone out there knows about this but I figured if I didn’t know before today, there are probably others out there in the same boat. Listen for yourself by going to the link above, then clicking on the LISTEN link at the bottom of the page. It’s song #30 in the archive.

There are approx. 75 songs Per wrote for other artists, so no wonder. :) Knew about Carola.
Can I trade this song with you? I can offer some nice Per written stuff too (you will sure find some really surprisings I bet).

@AntiMario... sorry, I don’t have a copy of that song but you can listen to it at the link above. The only “rare” Per song recorded by another artist is “The Sweet Hello, The Sad Goodbye” sung by Tomas Anders (of Modern Talking). I actually have the orignal CD so I could make a HQ MP3.
I didn’t realize that there were 75 songs out there! Could you possibly post (or e-mail me) a list?
Thanks!
@ Sweet... hey brutha! Is that 250 GBP or USD?
