WHO HOO... perhaps he thanked her as a friend... jeez is this not allowed!

daniel_alv said on January 9, 2004 15:44:

they always thank eachother on their albums, don’t they?

Kiwein1 said on January 9, 2004 16:17:

Marie doesn’t thank Per very often on her albums. Why should she? He doesn’t sing with her and doesn’t produce her albums or whatever..

The question is: WHY doesn’t she invite him to sing with her and why does he always think of her when he does a new album?

Sascha said on January 9, 2004 17:00:

About the Per feat. Marie/Marie feat. Per difference: it’s just because...

Marie goes solo to do something contrary to Roxette. So she doesn’t invite Per or other rox-musicians.
Per goes solo to fill the natural gaps between Roxette projects. So he works with Marie, Clarence & co.

Simple! ;-)

cskendras said on January 9, 2004 17:12:

I think that Per is a gentleman and why not thanking Marie for singing the backing vocals on Pa Promenad Genom Stan on Mazarin? For me that song is a production of both, Per and Marie. Both are involved in that song. so that might be a reason. but anyway: why not thanking a person, whom Per went with nearly 2 decades through the whole world..?

StillFar said on January 9, 2004 17:29:

I never understood why Per would ask Marie to sing on his Solo album... Roxette is a big part of their career and if one of them decides to go solo wouldn’t you want to do it all by yourself or if you really need someone else on the album (which I guess is the case with Per, considering that he’s not the most amazing singer) wouldn’t you want to work with artist you usually don’t get the chance to work with...
Why does he work with Marie on his solo album?

Max-Tob said on January 9, 2004 18:05:

I totally agree with Sascha. Totally agree. It makes sense. Which doesn’t mean - for sure - that this is the real judgement.

And I tend to take seriously MR. Gessle’s statement: “Because she’s the best” (when asked why Marie on his “Pa promenad...”) I think he likes her a lot as a singer and when he need a feminine voice he always thinks about her.

”..he also could have let Helena sing PPGS..” no thank you! :S

Kiwein1 said on January 9, 2004 18:55:

@Judith: I agree - I just wanted to say that there are ENOUGH female singers besides Marie.. :-)

roxtexanet said on January 9, 2004 18:58:

@Kiwein: Sure he could have asked Helena, but would you buy a Honda if you could afford a Ferrari? (-;

Kiwein1 said on January 9, 2004 19:01:

Ferrari, of course! I am for sure with you on that, I just wanted to find some answers to StillFar’s question: “Why does he work with Marie on his solo album?” :D

Jud (moderator) said on January 9, 2004 19:05:

kiwein: right!!!

Edit: I also think that her voice doesn’t fit Per’s songs at all...

roxtexanet said on January 9, 2004 19:13:

@Kiwein: Yeah, I’m just teasing you... I think you’re right, of all the singers that would love to be featured on one of Per’s albums, he chooses Marie over and over again. I applaud his great taste (-: (-: (-:

Do you guys really think Helena was THAT bad? I didn’t think her voice was anything special, but I hadn’t thought of her as being especially bad... maybe I need to listen to those recordings a little more closely... when my DVD arrives...

Kiwein1 said on January 9, 2004 19:17:

No, she is definitely NOT bad IMHO. I like “Mazarin” very much and enjoy her voice, if I can say so. I just think that she shouldn’t have sung the songs that were supposed to be with Marie’s voice! Otherwise, Segla, Tända, Inte tillsammans...would have been boring without ANY female voice during Gessle’s tour!

roxtexanet said on January 9, 2004 19:19:

I think Per *has* to ask Marie to feature on his solo albums... it’s tradition, she’s featured on every one of them (even the “Demos” CD)! That’s a tradition I’d like to see him keep up (-:

Per has duetted with others in the past... remember Anne Lie Ryde’s performance on “When Love’s On The Phone?”... maybe he learned his lesson from that... (-: Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard, I can’t stand it at all...

StillFar said on January 9, 2004 19:25:

come on, Marie is not the only singer who can hit keys ;)

@Jude: if you listen the the live recordings from Mazarin...I’m sorry, but poor Helena is not the only one hitting the wrong notes

roxtexanet said on January 9, 2004 19:29:

@StillFar: Actually, I tend to do just that... (-;

@Kiwein: Sorry, I’m too slow to respond, I keep missing your replies... I agree, Helena’s better than no-one at all, I think we just get used to hearing Marie’s voice in the songs and nobody can really replace her... Imagine Per singing “A Thing About You” with another female vocalist... yikes! I’m glad he didn’t attempt any live performances of that song without Marie during the promo for “TBH.”

@Judith: If you think Helena screwed up “Segla Pa Ett Moln,” you should hear Anne Lie Ryde’s version... pure torture! It’s on one of those stupid TeamToppen tapes they put out in Sweden in the eighties, where a bunch of her songs are paired with a bunch of Marie’s. How cruel to her, pairing her with MARIE FREDRIKSSON! Even if she had a good voice, it would pale against Marie’s!!

@Judith: P.S. Have you heard the Indigo Girls’ new single, “Perfect World”? http://kink.fm/news_more.php?id=310_0_2_0_M

Kiwein1 said on January 9, 2004 19:47:

Yeah, and I think that the first five postings in this topic are more than sad, since this topic has a lot of directions. It’s a pity that it seems to be not possible to share your thoughts and opinions with other people without getting flamed or asked if you are on drugs..

roxtexanet said on January 9, 2004 20:33:

@Kiwein: Agreed. I didn’t see anything wrong with the question at all, and in my opinion, responses like “Are you on drugs?” are pointless and inappropriate. How difficult is it NOT to reply to a topic you think is stupid? I manage to do it every day, it’s not that hard with a little practice...

@Judith: My pleasure! It’s brilliant, isn’t it? I think Roxette fans would appreciate some of the Indigo Girls’ harmonies, like in the second verse of this song. Album’s out Feb. 27th in North America at least...

roxtexanet said on January 9, 2004 21:15:

@Jud: Oops, I mean, Feb. 17th (one week after Melissa’s album)! Yeah, this is going to be a great year for music! Sarah Bettens’ (K’s Choice) solo album should be out this year, too... can’t wait!

LoneGunman said on January 10, 2004 04:34:

Hej

I’m late, but anyway... I think Helena sings very very very well, plus I believe her voice fits to Per’s and she made a great great great work on “Mazarin”. Hope she will be back on the next Roxette album.

Marie of course is better, but I liked to listen to Per’s songs with a different girl singing. Maybe because I was a bit tired of Marie+Per combination.

All the best
LoneGunman

Max-Tob said on January 10, 2004 10:48:

I think Helena is ok. She’s quite a strange/interesting presence on Mazarin stage! Her voice...I don’t know...it’s very straight...I don’t like either Segla pa... with her and I just don’t know what is the reason for which Per choose to sing in his Mazarin shows songs that are usually sung with Marie...But I’m sure he has a reason...

@Kewein (?): Thanx for appreciating my thread. I know is just a thread among the others, but why not being here as long as I am not on drugs?? Thanx again.

I suppose there is a tradition behind Marie singing on Per’s solo albums. It also shows the connection between them that goes - in a way - even further than Roxette international project. They sing together because they are not just co-workers at an international music project... And regarding Marie’s solo albums...I don’t really know...They are very non-Roxette stuff...they aren’t made for Per, I might say. I rember that Per said in the last chat (I think) that Marie’s album is all about “her and her Micke”... So...I don’t see how Per could feet in the picture... There’s a completely non-Per style there...Maybe he would like Marie to ask him for a collaboration, but we all know she’ll never do it.

Sparvogamarie said on January 17, 2004 01:47:

Someone already said this, but I think when Marie makes solo albums she is “escaping” from Roxette and making completely different music, but Per doesn’t feel the need to do that and like someone said before he is always making “Gessle music” whether it’s Rox, solo or GT. So Per naturally asks Marie to sing on his albums, while Marie prefers to keep her solo work separate from Rox. Also for this album it was a special occassion since it was the first time she sang since the cancer.

As for the thankyous...well it’s obvious he will thank her if she directly contributed to his album. I don’t know why Marie doesn’t thank him on her albums, it’s something only she can answer.

Max-Tob said on January 17, 2004 08:09:

I think that a few months ago there was a very long discussion here about Per not invited at Marie’s wedding...There were some pretty interesting posts there, even though no one knows for sure what happened...You should look for that topic.

Jud (moderator) said on January 17, 2004 09:21:

:S so now she is not only rude, but also jealous!

Look, they are 2 different persons and they both see things different and we are nobody to judge if she does this she is that or if he does that he is this. If Per feels Marie has to be all over and he has to thank her, good for him, if Marie doesn’t, good for her as well.

THEY know their reasons and they are fine with it (else their friendship + relationship would be over long ago) and that is the most important.

Sparvogamarie said on January 18, 2004 02:06:

Marie is a 46 year old grown woman, I do NOT think she is so small and petty that she gets jealous of Per’s success....she had her own success before Roxette ever came along and she has always done well by herself. She has said her solo music is like a break from Roxette, she wants to do something different from time to time and it’s nothing against Per....if she had a problem with Per then they would not be together anymore! I don’t see why either of them should be insulted if the other one does a solo project, Per and Marie don’t OWN each other!

Max-Tob said on January 18, 2004 09:11:

I really don’t want to say anything bad about Marie. She is the best singer in the world, and I think she knows it very well and, indeed, objectively speaking, she doesn’t need any Per around to make her sound better. Having said that, we established already that there are no objective reasons to believe that Marie, as an artist, would suffer any damages from stopping singing with Per. I’d like to believe that she would have been discovered anyway - sooner or later, with or without Roxette - a deserved interantional success. But this is not the point here. I suppose none of us doubt about P and M qualities as performers/singers/composers. We tried to judge things on a human level... There are many kinds of jelousy...Only one kind is chilidish...People of all types and of all ages are getting jelous from time to time...Or full of anger, or ready to react fulishly or unrationally and so one. Once again - I’m not saying that some of those mentioned above are applied to Marie. Not at all. BUT (it could be a BUT here) my feeling is that Roxette isn’t exactly what Marie really wanted...(I suppose I get you all mad with me now...)She doesn’t even have a complete Roxette collection at home (Per said that once). And yes, her solo albums are intended to be - more or less - some kind of “escapism” from Roxette/Per’s style. And Per knows that very well. I think this is what he was always trying to suggest by saying that the very reason for Roxette’s long life is that they allowed a certain space to breath for each other, materialized in their solo stuff. All in all, he knows that without those solo projects of Marie, she wouldn’t be able to come back over and over again to “Roxette international affaire”. She needs to do her thing, so that she can go further with a project that - of course - she didn’t dislike, but which is not exactly what she wants for herself. Things go different for Per. And I think here could be the reason for which he continues to ask Marie to sing on his solo albums: he doesn’t feel the need to completely change the scenary because he was always the main composer and a kind of (illegitimate) Rox-leader (because he is the one who knows how a song should sound and he knows exactly what kind of interpretation wants from Marie for a certain song; so, this is why he probably takes most of the decisions in the creative area).
So, Marie ignoring Per on her solo stuff and not mentioning him on different occasions when Per usually does it, may be a certain kind of showing who is the “real she”. It’s some kind of “This is me, this is how I actually see myself and that’s a totally different thing from Roxette”. I’m sure there were a lot of feelings of anger (and a little bit of revenge as well) in her “Den standiga...” when she got tired of Roxette. No one can blame her. I don’t. She is less Roxette than Per. Even him needs a more emotional and intimate artistic experience from time to time (see Mazarin results), not to mention Marie who doesn’t compose for Roxette...
She once said that she misses the old friendship with Per, before all Roxette projects got started. I understand her. Their frienship became something else in the mean time, even though there’s much respect and even a certain kind of love between them. But think about something: Per is stubborn and illiberal, he always knows what he wants and, yes, sometimes he can be too “bossy” (as someone said here about his beloved wife). And now think about Marie’s flexibility (that Per appreciates because he can work easier with her) and disponibility and her talent and so one - things that Per can “exploit” (in a good sense of the word). These things create a certain kind of relationship between them that brings Per in the (illegitimate - I said) leader’s position. Marie doesn’t want that all the time. She prefers working with her husband (even if she always said that it is not recommended working with the one you love) and probably she rules everything and makes her own decision as she likes. One can’t do that with Per. We know how he is (well, more or less).

In the end, I want to repeat that jelousy and anger and other irrational feelings are not only for children (on the contrary - they grow bigger only when people get older); and that one might find reasons for P and M thanking - not thanking to each other - at the human scale, and not at the strictly professional relationship which is only a prolongation of the human interaction.
Oh, and one more thing: we deal with a WOMAN and a MAN. We can’t pretend that this is not a reason for certain features of their relationship. They need to draw certain lines. Which is a very delicate operation (lot of stress and tension involved).
I’m truely sorry for posting such a long comment. I hope I didn’t do something wrong.
Cheers.
Max.

“I still think that Marie can involve Per with at least one of her songs and still keep it “REAL”
By excluding Per on purpose she is making it soooo obvious that is is trying to prove something that she doesn’t even need to prove to start of with.”

And? IF she feels like this, it is up to her, isn’t it? As I said, they have their reasons and that’s the way it is. There were others who influenced a LOT in Marie’s career and she hasn’t asked them to sing with her either, she even forgets to mention them in the DVD (ehem :P)) And who knows what will happen with this new album ;)

Jud (moderator) said on January 20, 2004 08:52:

Should Eva Dahlgren ask Efva Attling to sing with her every time??? (that was for you Jud!!)

>> haha and *I* didn’t say that :P

Thinking of Marie’s songs.. can’t find any where Per would fit anyway...

Jud (moderator) said on January 20, 2004 09:02:

jeez!! I was waiting for the moment that sb would involve Micke in all this and make him the one “to blame on”

So as a kind of summary: we have a rude and feeling jealous Marie and a really possesive husband that wants Marie just for himself ;)

Jud (moderator) said on January 20, 2004 09:10:

note the ;)

Anyway, I can’t think of any Marie song where Per could sing... I mean she asked Patrik to sing Det som var nu, just to imagine it with another male (=Per) but really.. can’t see Per singing in it. AND why should she ask him anyway?? I don’t see any reason for her having to ask him to sing! If she had to ask all her friends.. I think we would have a double “Marie and her friends duets” album...

That seems to be it! ;-) We finally found the answer to the question! Hehe!

To be serious: I agree with all postings that Judith did, nothing to add, thanks! :-)

Kiwein1 said on January 20, 2004 10:51:

They are old enough to decide where and how to thank their friends - it doesn’t have to be a new album, does it?
And Per doesn’t feel insulted for sure!

Sparvogamarie said on January 20, 2004 11:00:

OH yeah...Per IS thanked on the Äntligen CD...her most recent album.

Sparvogamarie said on January 20, 2004 11:31:

I’m pretty much gonna leave this thread after this because it’s degenerating and going nowhere, but will reply to this part from Max-Tob:

>But we have to admit that she didn’t pay attention >to her roxetter partner for some reasons, at >some occasions.

That can be said in reverse and may even explain why she has avoided thanking him in the past...Per has openly admitted to being a little insensitive to Marie when her children were born. He pushed her to work when she wanted time with them, and after his son was born he realised what he had done and I believe he apologised to her. In the Really Roxette documentary also, they both admit that their friendship had fallen apart a bit and they had to make an effort to rebuild it. I’ve heard a few rumours, not 100% confirmed of course, that they were really not getting along in the mid 90’s (and that was why Per was not invited to the wedding). So it’s possible Marie was angry at him during the making of her other albums...but as I said above she DID thank him on her most recent CD so it seems they have sorted things out between them.

And I’ll react using whatever words I like *g*
I’ve never even MET you before Max-Tob, why are you jumping all over me? Just because I didn’t share your opinion? Jeezzzz. So this is why the people at the runtoroxette forum said don’t come to Small Talk....I see what they were talking about.

Sparvoga out. *waves*

Kiwein1 said on January 20, 2004 12:12:

It’s a pity that this topic ends this way as it seemed a really interesting discussion so far.

Jud (moderator) said on January 20, 2004 16:28:

@_@ who are you to judge their relationship and marie’s actions and decisions? She didn’t invite Per to her wedding, well FINE, who are you to judge her for that? SHE and only SHE is the one to know why and she is free to do what she feels like and you are nobody, not to even ask her why neither to judge her and put yourself in Per’s position and how he would have felt. SHE only SHE is the one to decide about who sings in her albums and that’s all about it. AND Per is the only one to feel fine or bad about it all, you are NOBODY to judge her neither Per neither to decide if they are mature enough or how Marie should treat her relationship with Per, where are we going to end up?

One thing is to talk about what directions their music should take, another one very different is JUDGE their personal lives and them as individuals they are. You don’t own Per and Marie! If you wanna talk about other’s life and how they handle their relationships, buy the HELLO! or go to a hairdresser and I am sure you will feel at ease there! You have discussed about Marie’s and Per’s reasons to thank eachother, about WHAT KIND of person Åsa is, now Micke also takes part in it.. what will be next? Why Per and Marie never married?

Per is NOT the only friend/person that has supported her, not at all, I could mention one that has supported her since she started and even asked her to sing backing vocals in her album before she even had one on her own. But I don’t think she should ask this person to sing in her albums neither thank her everywhere O_o Besides what kind of friendship would it be if it would be based on how many times you sing in my album and you thank me in it???

Markuz said on January 20, 2004 18:50:

@erweetiran: Well, I think the problem is that you’ve got some wrong information and ideas.

You say Per and Marie are friends... well, are they?

In an interview from 1995 from the Roxette Review Marie Fredriksson said that she was kinda sorry that the frienship with Per was lost, and that they were more like business partners now.

So maybe they friendship is over and they are still together because of their work. What’s wrong with that??

Then I’ll begin.

”How could she? Use of alphabetical order! Sooo ungrateful and insensitive?! [needless to say it only looks like alphabetical order to a non scandanavian, or an idiot. However, I am an enraged, embittered rox fan, who cares more about making insane congectures about peoples private lives than actualy music. Therefore I will take a pathetically speculative argument and continue to rant like the type of lunactic neither Marie, Per, and especially not this poor dude Micke would EVER want to meet on a dark night. So, where was I?]

Ah yes. To think, its taken her all this time since the last time to acknowledge his godly presence! Unbelievable! If I was his friend I’d pay back all his greatness by doing his laundry for the next 10,00000000000 years. Hell, I’d even take out his trash! I mean, he taught her everything! everythind dammit

[then the: Whats so special about Åsa anyway part....] I mean, her first! Its no like she writes the songs! Not like they would even BE friends if it wasn’t for PER!!!!! Isn’t he the centre of the earth! In fact! I’ve got it!!! MICKE made her put Åsa first! Its all a jealous conspiracy......[and on, and on, and on.....]

There, I’ve parodied it for all of you. Now you can go and have a nice quiet evening in front of the TV. This tirade of utter pish is dedicated to the sarcasm of Vixzter.

Oh my god, what a question, if she would have done so she must admit that she and Per are married, have three kids, Pippi, Anika, and Tommi! Because the first section is for love. And i think its really great that she admit that is fallen in love with the spider moje, perhapes on the next cd she will admit that she is in love with Per and perhapes the next next album she will also be able to say that she is in love with asa an prins charles who knows, so dont push her like this!!!!

*edit*
By the way it must be a really strange marriage Marie and Per! A lot of ballons with sad clowns on it. Marie must invite Per!!!
It must be a rainig day on a bright june afternoon, while marie is spending her time with listen to her heart and Per tryin to get the look with an big bubblegum and having a joyride to the house of marie with his car, than find she doesnt live here anymore and get exited, while marie is wainting for the rain in the church of her heart thinking my heart is a support to the brain. Than Per arrives ooh you are my queen of rain. Marie says im fading like a flower everytime you enter the room becouse im totally in love with you Jefferson äh i mean Per!

Jud (moderator) said on November 1, 2004 09:41:

where? ;)

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 15:07:

I think we should aim for 200 posts!

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 15:32:

I don’t know...if we’re not careful we’re gonna get archived for talking so much rubbish!!!

Oooh I’ll share a happy story with you instead. Today I went to Mega in Stockholm to ask if I could have a promo poster of The Change. The guy said he didn’t have an extra, but maybe I’d be interested in something else. So he gave me this cool little promo folder with stuff about the album and pix of Marie! Yay! Then they started playing All You Gotta Do Is Feel in the store! Double yay! And then I went to the other Mega store, and they gave me a poster. So I had a cool day.

Do you think I’ll get flamed for bragging now? Last time I shared a cool Marie story I got called “precious” for acting like I was so great just because I dared to share something positive. Blah, they can flame away, it’s cold here in Sweden anyway :)

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 17:14:

Mmm now I’m nice and warm. Thanks OAM

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 17:24:

Hmm that’s true, it would be a very quiet place here if all the crap got archived lol.

Here’s some warm toasty flames for you ^.^.^

Jud (moderator) said on November 1, 2004 17:32:

Marie: how dare you come here and brag about what you got!?!? *getting the voodoo doll*

;)

Btw, no more ideas about Moje? I still vote for the nanny :P

Btw2, I am still pissed because E&E don’t have a preferred place in the booklet, a picture should at least have been included!

And to keep it Rox related: Marie rules!!! ;)

^^ btw3, see WHO started page 6! :P

Jud (moderator) said on November 1, 2004 18:15:

so Eva is the “male”? :P

on_a_mission said on November 1, 2004 19:00:

yokel vix! we made it to six pages. I’m also bored. And where were we? nannies, cats fish feminism...oh! and roxette somewhere in the distant past.

Hello moderators!

@judith: Ironically, tev started page 6, he’s at the top.

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Vixzter said on November 1, 2004 19:11:

spider! its a spider i tell ya! although....i read once tht marie doesnt like them....so maybe she splatted it ;)

i just made that word up btw (splatted) ;)

Vixzter said on November 1, 2004 19:18:

i want a change poster *cries*

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 19:19:

Hey Jud I just noticed the part about the voodoo doll. Huh, I won’t tell you about the time I kissed Marie’s neck. True story....embarrassing story actually but still bragworthy.

Is bragworthy a word?

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 19:21:

But did you kiss her NECK when you said it? I think not.

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 19:24:

You should. But actually it was Marie’s fault, I was kissing her cheek and she pulled my head into her neck. I was so embarrassed my face turned redder than a tomato and I couldn’t look her in the eye after that. But she had the biggest grin on her face.

That’s gotta be bragworthy, right?!!!!!!

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 19:36:

If you kissed her shoulder, then it would count. But she’d probably look at you pretty weird if you just walked up and kissed her shoulder.

Yes we’ll blame it on the orange walls....I’ve got to wonder what the “normal” people around here are thinking of this topic (if there are any). They probably think we’re kinda nuts....well hellooooo, my website is called the Marie Worship page, so right there you know I have a few screws loose to call my site something that weird. No shock to anybody if I go off the deep end, am I right?

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 19:51:

I think it’s become pretty obvious which two people had nothing to do one cold Monday evening ;)

Hey we have to keep this Rox related remember? I can’t top the neck story. Or can I?

Okay I admit it - I AM MOJE!! All this time you thought I was a spider. Yes it’s all true, after I kissed her neck she left Micke and ran away with me to get married. Efva and Eva were the flower girls and Per was a bridesmaid. He looked lovely in a pink chiffon gown with puffy sleeves.

That’s the plain truth. Goodnight everyone, from Sparvogamoje.

Sparvogamarie said on November 1, 2004 20:20:

Well I think the point that Max-Tob was trying to make is why the hell did Per bother to thank Marie on his DVD when she’s clearly an ungrateful, lazy, inconsiderate, non wedding inviting cow who couldn’t even take the time to thank him on her CDs even though he MADE her what she is today and she would obviously be homeless and living under a bridge without him.

Did I get it right?

Vixzter said on November 1, 2004 20:28:

LOL

on_a_mission said on November 1, 2004 21:37:

I’m semi listening to/reading this discussion. From my initial, lets parody the psycho rox fan post it really has gone full circle. Here’s to beer Vix/oam//

on_a_mission said on November 1, 2004 21:50:

did you register just to say that....or are you really on drugs? ;-p

zaine said on November 2, 2004 12:48:

”...and Per was a bridesmaid. He looked lovely in a pink chiffon gown with puffy sleeves”

that is the most amusing thing ever!!
I am going to keep that image in my head all day!

RoXoR said on November 2, 2004 14:33:

Page 7!!!

By the way, woudlnt it make sence to creat a site for moje

Something like this:
in memories of moje, the splatted spider eaten by Per addicted to vixzter who sings i will follow moje, follow moje where ever he may go, ever since he touched my heart....

Sparvogamarie said on November 2, 2004 17:55:

Jud said “so if kissing her neck is bragworthy.. what about her lips?”

WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL US, JUDITH??? Is there something Conny should know about?

Sparvogamarie said on November 2, 2004 18:15:

No bragworthy would not be a good word for that....I think DEAD would be more like it, after I get my hands on Jud for kissing my wife!

PS. Per’s pink chiffon bridesmaid gown is on Ebay for 1 euro. Any bidders?

Moje. (No I am NOT a spider, though Marie and I do have a pet tarantula called Ariadne)

Jud (moderator) said on November 2, 2004 18:29:

Glups! *me cancels the trip to Stockholm*

btw, did I ever tell you that Connie does NOT read these forums? ;)

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 18:36:

@jud: probably a good job she doesnt ;-)

Jud (moderator) said on November 2, 2004 18:41:

“I just received the shocking news that Judith has been having an affair with my wife and I’m flying to Austria to kick her ass”

>> I think the “has been having” isn’t the right tense
When did you say you are going back to Oz? ;)

Btw, Eva and I have a very very open relationship, which I cannot tell about Efva (who btw reads this site every day, doesn’t miss a single word here. I’d better watch out ;)

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 18:49:

dammit i wanted the shoes too!!

*calls per* give me the shoes dammit!!.....i don’t care if you are wearinging them....i bloody want them!

btw i put a bid on ebay for 1,000,0000,0000 euros so if someone wants that dress they’ll have to want it more than me (crickey thats more than i paid for that damn promo! credit card will melt this month)

;-)

Jud (moderator) said on November 2, 2004 18:52:

:O Connie has a twin!!!

Sparvogamarie said on November 2, 2004 18:56:

Jud: yes she does...who do you think is in your bed tonight?

I told you I’ll be there in a minute Connie! Is Eva here yet? The orgy can’t start without her...Marie what the HELL are you doing with that banana????? Hey don’t start without me!

Gotta go....

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 18:57:

tis ok, he promised me i cud borrow um, but i think they may be a little big ;...(

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 18:58:

200th post!

Sparvogamarie said on November 2, 2004 18:59:

Vix: since when are you and Per on shoe-swapping terms? Seems Jud and I are not the only ones with our little secrets....

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 19:01:

looking on ebay for pink dresses now....

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3263&item=8141961...

was it that one??

or...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=80914&item=593145...

that one.....must be the 2nd one....coz pers modeling it!

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 19:02:

@spar: oh we swap shoes all the time, i know about the secret vault too, mine dont fit him though.

Sparvogamarie said on November 2, 2004 19:03:

Yeah it’s the second one. Actually Per’s bidding on the first one.

Kiwein1 said on November 2, 2004 19:05:

That’s why he lost the weight - the dress needs to fit when he’s at Eva’s and Sparvoga’s wedding in march. :)

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 19:06:

i got a pair of his jeans too ( no seriously i have!....bragworthy...or sad?) we like to swap stuff, he wears my hockey skirt quite often

Sparvogamarie said on November 2, 2004 19:06:

How did you find out about that Kiwein??? It was a big secret. Yes we’re becoming Jehovah’s Witnesses because they let you have more than one wife. So soon I’ll be married to Eva, Marie AND Connie and we’ll live on a commune.

Oh and after Per becomes a woman he’ll join us.

Sparvogamarie said on November 2, 2004 19:08:

Vix: I don’t even wanna KNOW what you do with them.

I have Marie’s pillow. No, seriously I do! It smells like beer, no kidding.

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 19:15:

well....we just like to swap clothes thats all.....and shoes....but i’m not allowed to see most of his collection :...(

Vixzter said on November 2, 2004 21:54:

oh i saw that, not much kinky stuff, mostly them hip huggin’ knickers a la bridget jones ;-)

on_a_mission said on November 2, 2004 23:56:

vix....not listening to the rest of the insanity but hahahahfuckingha......if he reads this ur getting sued. big time! he better be wearing ur jeans....

Vixzter said on November 3, 2004 06:30:

if i’m getting sued then so’s everyone else ;-)

Sparvogamarie said on November 3, 2004 13:04:

LAUGHING MY GODDAMN ASS OFF AT THAT PHOTO!!!!!!

Uhhhh I think I broke a rib from laughing too much but MUHAAAHAHAHAHHAHAHHHAAAAAAA!!!!!

Jud (moderator) said on November 3, 2004 17:23:

I think I didn’t laugh like this for long *muahahhahah*

Btw Marie, you should tell Marie to finally loose weight!!!!

Vixzter said on November 3, 2004 17:34:

LOL

Vixzter said on November 3, 2004 17:35:

u could always come and play hockey with me and per!

Sparvogamarie said on November 3, 2004 18:59:

LMAO @ Vix! You should get into stand-up or something.

Jud: Yeah it’s quite disgraceful how fat my wife is. What was she thinking, getting cancer?? It just goes to prove the original point of this topic, that she is just plain selfish and thoughtless!

Connie and Eva says hi btw.

Vixzter said on November 8, 2004 20:11:

Per got dropped at the weekend btw, wasn’t in the team coz he wanted to wear pink shoes.

Vixzter said on November 9, 2004 18:08:

maybe he’s an alien ;)

Vixzter said on November 9, 2004 18:23:

possibly, might just be a new face growing and he’ll end up looking like marie ;)

Sparvogamarie said on November 9, 2004 19:36:

Ooooooooooooooooooooh if he looks like Marie then I’ll finally have the man of my dreams....a man who is just like Marie! Yay! But can we get him a personality transplant too, I don’t want to marry the worlds biggest ego!

*Sparvögamarie hides in her flame retardant spacesuit*

Jud (moderator) said on November 9, 2004 22:15:

me also thinks his face looks weird..

I wonder why such people do all these beauty operations, you only need to see the ones who already have lived with quemical stuff injected in their bodies or with such liftings for some years.. and when this stuff starts to move or look like it’s falling appart (talk about lips or whatever).. they end up looking like monsters!!! *yuk*

(not saying that Per’s doing that, I simply don’t mind, if he wants to look like a monster in some years, his problem ;))

Sparvogamarie said on November 10, 2004 18:05:

Actually he did look a little monsterish. He had that awful fake look that you get after plastic surgery. Of course I don’t know for sure that he did, but something in his face just didn’t look right at all! But he’s no alien, he spent the whole interview talking about how Mazarin is SOOOOO successful and he didn’t want to make Mazarin II with FFF because FFF is a “band” album so he made something different (um, sure you did Per!) for GT and then he talked about the time he created the Earth in 7 days. No alien could have such a high opinion of himself...!

Jud (moderator) said on November 10, 2004 19:11:

lol what look do people have after operating? :O I think I’ve never met a person who’s done plastic surgery - ts ts with what people am I making friends????

Jud (moderator) said on November 10, 2004 20:22:

LOL I DO need sleep :D

I thought you meant they have a special look from their eyes!! *blush*

Yes I know what you mean, at least judging from pictures or tv - damn, I must get friends in the upper class and experience a plastic face live! (yuk! I think I would puke if I had to kiss such an.. unreal face)

Sparvogamarie said on November 12, 2004 19:45:

This news just in - Mel Gibson is making a new movie about Per. It’s called “The Passion of the Gessle” and it’s the story of the time Per died on the cross and rose 3 days later with a new album called “The World According to the Messiah - (me of course)” featuring the hits “I want you to know (that I’m God)” and “Do you wanna worship me baby”. It’s a very powerful and moving film.

kibkalo said on November 28, 2004 13:05:

Returning to the original topic theme: on “The Change” Marie thanks Per & Asa for their friendship (among others)

Vixzter said on November 29, 2004 19:50:

LOL spar!

Sparvogamarie said on November 30, 2004 17:32:

Nearly 300 replies, not bad for a stupid topic that was only started to attack a cancer patient.
