According to Capitol Canada, this song is sung by “high-pitched” Per. So that means that they’ve either heard the song, or are just guessing it. It’s obvious that Per must do some vocals, but then again, Looking For Jane was also about a girl - so does this means there’s no Marie in this track - or could it be that perhaps she’s in there somewhere because they used the earlier version of the demo when it was registered with BMI?

Roxette singer sues newspaper
By Ananova

Roxette singer Marie Fredriksson is suing a Swedish newspaper after it claimed she was suffering from a second brain tumour.

The pop star had surgery in September last year to remove a tumour.

But in January, Swedish tabloid Expressen wrongly reported that doctors had found a second tumour.

Fredriksson’s lawyer Leif Silbersky has requested an apology on the paper’s front page and is seeking £37,000 in damages.

He said Fredriksson would donate the money to the Swedish Cancer Society.

It is thought that the paper has since apologised but has declined to make the payout, reports BBC News.

Bring back Marie’s vocals!
Opportunity Rox is missing Marie’s voice...

No, actually ON really has Marie vocals (few backing vocal, but it has!)

Want to discover them?

Listen to your CD single in a headphone but don´t let the phones plug completely tight... you´re gonna hear just some instruments of the song and only the backing vocals (not the main vocals).
You´ll be able to hear Marie´s voice clearly.

PS: sorry about my terrible english, hope everyone understand what I meant!! :P

COOL i also tried that many time for other songs... Marie’s vocals on ON sound really cool especially when harmonizing with Per’s. LOL I love the background vocals on COY and TCOTH as well... cool technique with headphones indeead...:)

Another important aspect: knowing the state of health of Marie right now, we should not expect big things from her. It would be too much seeing her singing a whole song.. remeber that recoding in a studio is a bit physical and psychological tireing thing.. so i doubt Marie would undertake such task completely. Being able to do some back vocals on ON and LHS is for me at least impressive and enjoyable

but i remeber long time ago... per was asked a question what is fav roxette song was at the moment.. an he said little miss sorrow... i really doubt he would like a song of himself singing hehe :))) also little miss sorrow was know about for sum time... so there is A VERY good chance i say marie is on lead of this song :))

Not a surprise. Marie jus wasn’t in the condition to perform vocals. All she could do is the humming in ON :-P

DaCapo21 said on March 18, 2003 18:24:

No that’s wrong if you listen more carefully she sings bits on the second verse with Per making harmonies (quite cool for me)

big-little-girl said on March 18, 2003 22:57:

It’s possible that Marie is singing the lead-vocals on LMS! Even if Marie’s maybe not in the right condition for working a whole day in the studio, it’s possible that they used an OLD finished recording and put it on the CD!? Maybe it was somewhere in some drawer like other songs berfore???

Wee’ll see/hear it on MONDAY!!!

Oh please if he does sing... Please don’t let it be like the high picth from Som I En Drom... :/

Som i en dröm was a demo, so not thought to be released... btw, the lyrics were so much better in Swedish than the stupid “So far away” :/
