41 replies

Not necessarily 10...just as many as you want to ;)

I´ll post mine:

1- From one heart to another
2- view from a hill
3- little girl
4- make my head go pop
5,6,7,8,9,10- hmmmpff...the rest of them belongs to the Balladas album,hehe

anyone called “FAN” couldn‘t hate a Roxette song.
Only the stupids fans could.

Sorry, but i ever hate: Church of your heart.

@Patolucas:
Please, do and say you want but no harm no one. Ok?

I don´t hate any Rox/or Rox related song.
But the song I listen least to is Reporter (not rox but PG).

@Patolucas,

You can be a true fans, yet have some spirit...

I don’t like
“A View From A Hill”
“Physical Fascination”
“Come Back (Before You Leave)”
“Vulnerable”
to name but a few

STARS
CRUSH ON YOU
MAKE MY HEAD GO POP
BRINGING ME DOWN TO MY KNEES

AND THE DRUMS IN SALVATION ARE QUITE TERRIBLE TOO.

I don’t hate any Roxsong, but the ones I don’t like that much are “View From A Hill” and “Physical Fascination”.

1. Topics like this. And especially numerous “Bla-bla” vs “Bla-blo” survivor round .... 100056!
2. Well, does it mean so much after 1? Huh...

A

Hate is not the right word in this context..it’s too strong ... this should be about the Rox songs we like less or that we listen the less for whatever reason... you can only hate a song if that song pushed on your face or killed your mother ..lol:) Just kidding ..but you know what i mean...

Anyway:
I don’t like “GoodBye To You”, “Call Of The Wild” and “From One To Another” and I personally don’t find “NeverEnding Love” such a great song..yet it was a huge single...
I also don’t listen to “View from a Hill” probably the worst song on the LS album.. for me!
From “JOYRIDE”...only “Phsyical Fascination”...i don’t like it and i don’t listen to it
From “TOURISM”....ummm the album is nice but not such a 7th wonder...yet...i don’t pay much attention to “Here Come The Weekend” at least i don’t like the way it ended up being produced....
From “CBB”....”I love The Sound Of Crashing Guitars” sometimes i listen sometime i don’t feel like it...not a special song to me anyway
From DBU...i love the 4 songs..theiy are perfect.. great memories behind them i carry with me...:)
From HAND...I used not to like “7207” . “Pay The Price”, “Cooper” and “Staring At The Ground” but now i kinda don’t mind about them at all.. it was the production and the melodies of some of these that really pissed me off back then... time heals everything lol:)
From RS...despite the excessive simplicity of the album and the song being to short...ummm... “Make My Head Go Pop” and “Jefferson” are the 2 one i don’t listen to much ...don’t mean so much to me....:P

From the TBH/TPH....i love the all....:)))) ATAY reminds me a lot of Marie we all got something about Marie if you know what i mean... simple melody but able to make me feel down and sad...while ON makes go crazy..it’s great to go on the road with this one blasting high on the car...wooooooooowwwwwww... makes u go faster and faster ..wilder and wilder...but before i have an accident i won’t nox that opportunity..eh eh

I don´t like Cry and Dangerous.
Dangerous sounds too dated and silly.
It´s amazing btw how much better POP is than Look Sharp.

You´re right,Yellowtigger.
Sorry for”stupid Fans”.But read something like this topic “most hated rox song” really hurt me.
Do and say what you want but harm no one
but this stupid “most hated rox song” hurts me.

Voices
The Heart Shaped Sea
Anyone
Salvation
The first girl on the moon

There is no hated songs. Every song has a meaning. I love every single one of them!

@ Pato: there’s no need to insult. Besides there is something called taste + having an own opinion.

I hate (=I always skip it!), just to mention some of them:
soul deep (awful awful awful!)
little girl (zzzzz)
love is all (zzzzz 2)
view from a hill
salvation
+ all baladas eeew!

@ Patolucas. Dont worry, ok? I understand to you.
Happy Summerrrrrrrrr!!!

I never liked:

Call of the Wild
View From A Hill
Half A Woman, Half A Shadow
Shadow of A Doubt
Make My Head Go Pop
Waiting For The Rain
Vulnerable
Love Is All

(and there’s a couple more but I can’t remember them all!)

I didn’t like POP that much.

To patolucas:

A real fan should also know to criticize sometimes...

What you said is such a “groupie” thing,boy....

most —> “”“”“hated”“”“” <———– Rox songs

Just to enphasize...make sure you read the topic correctly now....doh

that anyone who’s a fan comment is quite BS. Just cause ur a fan doesn’t mean u have to love EVERYTHING they prodouce. Make my head go pop, you can’t put your arms and a significant portion oif the heartleansd album are quite bad but lets not forget us FANS love them no matter what

Once again “Hate” is the wrong word here...
Let’s take this as : the songs I don’t like, I don’t listen, I find really bad or i skipp most of the time ...unless i am trully drunk and i start singing a long to them....

The only reason why i stopped being bothered with the song i liked less from the HAND was because while i am washing the dished in the house i have this album on sometimes and i realized it was not so bad at all... at least it sound cool with the volume on maximum.... the same thing for CBB (but in this case the sound is a bit better....)
I guess the only Roxette album that i trully like less is the LS album...uhhhhhmmmmmm.... doens’t really fill up my needs apart from songs like “The Look”, DFS, LTYH, HAW,HAS and the amazing “Paint” (and also Cry i like this one a lot more now)

I don’t like at all:
- Stars, it is really awful!! (Hey, I don’t want to offend anyone, but I can’t stand this rox-disco-sound)
- You can’t put your arms around what’s alredy gone
- View from a hill
- Perfect day
But we can’t forget that almost every rox song is great!!! =)

I never liked “Hootblooded”.
“You can´t put your arms..” kicks ass!

Soul deep(studio)
I call your name
View from a hill
Physical fascination
The big L
I love the sound of...
lies
Love is all(studio) I LOVE the Live version!
Pay the price
C O Y (studio) Live vers, its Perfect
Real sugar/ Jefferson/ BMDTMK

Carlos F .-.-.- Chile.-.-.-.-

hmmm only ones i can think of right now are Cry and Watercolours in the Rain.....i totally LOVE the Pearls of Passion songs...they’re the best!and oh yeah, song till katen isntn that great ;)

It’s hard to find a bad Roxette-Song. But nevertheless, there are some of them being really teribble:

1. Like Lovers do
2. Goodbye to you
3. Making Love to You
4. Turn to me (the life-version is even worse!)
5. Pay the Price (nice verse, but a terrible chorus! It just does not fit together)

For some reason I don’t really like “The Big L.” and “Joyride” that much. Heard them too often I guess :-)

It’s amazing how different we all are as far as Rox songs are concerned really!!!!!

First of all: no one can be offended if u say that u don’t like “Stars” in fact if u say u do u will be causing red faces on some old school fans... but that’s another story. I learned to love this song over the years especially because of the impact the song has had on some friends of mine and on me. I love the remixes..i have nothing against techo-fance stuff it’s only a matter of taste and respect for those who like it or not without mentiong war.
I was totally blasted with the live versions (slow and normal)...they trully rock!

I find “Turn To me” so sweet and lovely.....Marie sings this chotus like a goodess to me

The same thing happens with “Soul Deep” Marie makes the most brillant live performance with this one. Hoe can you be more than 10 minutes singing this tune and making vocal games with the crowd ...now that’s what i call a great concert! It’s when the singer and the audiece are in mutual interaccion...! I SAY TO U DO U WANNA HEAR A SONG CALLED SOUL DEEP???? he he
I didn’t find the album verions that cool but after listening to these live version it all changed...

7Twenty7
Cry
View from a hill
Physical fascination
Keep me waiting

hmm i must be a strange fan because i dont hate any song from roxette

Hmm. Some People here Say that they don’t like Power Ballads. Isn’t that Ironic, because that’s what Rox is soo Good at. How AMAZING was “It Must Have Been Love” It was Per’s Magic in it’s Purest.

Some People don’t like Dance Oriented “Stars”. Isn’t that Ironic, because Rox was always a Dance oriented Band. Yeah, they combined Rock with Dance, but let’s face it Rox was never a True Rock Band. Per used way too many Synthesizers to be considered a Rock band. There is no way that a track like “Dangerous” was a pure Rock song.

Even on “Look Sharp” there were Very Dance oriented Songs like “Shadow of a Doubt” or “Chances”. The album was a mix of Madonna with like Def Leppard or Something. It Was NEVER Metallica, not even Nirvana or whatever.

So if People here don’t like Dance or Pop element of Roxette, than why the Hell are you even listening to Rox???????????????

Each Rox Song has something to It. That special Hook, whether it’s a faster or a slower song. Even if I don’t LOVE a song, than I At Least Like It. There is no way that I Hate any of their tunes.

A lot of People didn’t like “A View from a Hill”. I thought it was a Great song.

But I did think that “Little Girl” was a rather weak song. Also “Half a Woman half a Shadow” was kind of Weak. But I definitely did not “Hate” any of these. They were just OK.

“And Make My Head go Pop” was a bit too Poppy, but it was Catchy. I just did not like the word Pop repetitions. I Guess Per has been listening to way too many A-Teens Songs when he wrote this one He He He He :-)

Voices is great! The contrabass is grandious and fits into the dark and emotion-loaded atmosphere of the song. How can you hate this one?

I don’t like CHURCH OF YOUR HEART!
