EMI Chrysalis has opened their new website. On their Roxette page you can find a link to “Anyone” sound clip which appeared the be the whole song in streaming Real Audio format. There’s also a rather good biography text on Roxette:

Roxette formed in middle of the 1980s. They have sold 38 million albums and 15 million singles around the world had four number one singles in the USA and two world tours between 1991 and 1995. The album ’Baladas en Espanol’ sold a million albums in Spain, Argentina and Brazil.

 

Roxette are Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson two voices, two hard working and determined talents, united by a stubborn vision to reach out with their own warm and melodic brand of pop music.

 

1999 saw the release of a new album ’Have A Nice Day’, the first in five years, but the band are certain they still have something to offer to the pop world. ’People are dying for songs with good melodies,’ says Marie, ’And Roxette has always been rooted in the melodic tradition.’ The self-confessed control freaks produced the album with Clarence Öfwerman and Michael Ilbert an unusual step which led to a lot of tension. ’There’s never been so much fighting during a Roxette recording,’ says Per, ’But then we’ve never made such a good album either’.

If you don’t want to go to the site, below is a direct link to the sound file.
