just heard new song,
very strong , but i think it is far to over produced. and now, 2 lead singles by per.
if i and everyone else wanted per to be roxette, then people would of bought TWATG. sounds very much part of that album. roxette is both of them not just ’his’ sound. and marie sings sleeping in my car, nothing like it lol.
i know not many people will agree but never mind.

ye true, it maybe has an edge to it. i need to hear it all i think.

I personally don’t think there is anything wrong with per having the lead on two singles. I mean, he has a very distinctive voice, Roxette isn’t just Marie, Marie is obviously not well enough to sing the full lead vocals on any song right now.
I agree, Marie has a fantasti voice too, but c’mon lets give per a go. I mean, The Look, Rox’s first major international smash is a Per song...maybe ON will do the same again.
just my humble opinion... :))

Maybe ON has an uptempo-killer sung by Marie... like Jefferson or June Afternoon, that would be great!!!

rox-kuryliw, you know Marie doesen’t sing on Opportunity Nox, so you have heard whole song. Where?
This song is so great. I’m so happy this isn’t typicall radio-friendly song. 90% of them are totally crap.

no i thought it was gonna be like sleeping in my car, thats sung by marie you see. i knew i wasnt going to be popular lol. having a bridge like jefferson or june afternoon would be really good. as i love both of them songs. simple and upbeat. :-)

being ironic i mean. i do miss marie on lead singles she has a beautiful voice. the new song is not i thought it was going to be. little disappointed.

@NinaP: They do kick ass. Per is a genious when it comes to writing these type of songs
(She Doesn’t Liive..., ON, 727)
He should use that ability more often
Opportunity Nox Rox!

you know, i hope that marie actually sings in there, and not just do the Ooooo..oo.oo.. o in the chorus. ’cause if that’s all she did, she must not be doing so well healthwise :-/

I can understand you in a way, but have to dissagree on, that this song sounds like TWATG. It just doesn’t. TWATG was not as exciting as this song and even the sound is a bit different. But I miss Marie in the Songs too.
