“Time goes by so quickly. It’s not that long ago we spent days and nights in my tiny apartment in Halmstad, listening to music we loved, sharing impossible dreams. And what a dream we eventually got to share!Thank you, Marie, thanks for everything. You were an outstanding musician, a master of the voice, an amazing performer. Thanks for painting my black and white songs in the most beautiful colours. You were the most wonderful friend for over 40 years. I’m proud, honoured and happy to have been able to share so much of your time, talent, warmth, generosity and sense of humour. All my love goes out to you and your family. Things will never be the same.P.”

Remember this one, anyone? /P.
Of course, It was a great comeback after so many years. Many of us, and probably you too Per, thought at some point that Roxette was over after Marie's first diagnosis. It was a comeback for Roxette, and in addition, It was a comeback for the Roxette fans too. We made so many good and cool friends during those charm school days, and we had the chance to get together with a few old ones as well. What a joy, just because a mouth harp! 😄
Yeah the favorite song of this album. But never grow up on the radio.
Great album, I love it. Way out, Speak to me and especially Dream on are my favourites. I've always liked the "power"-side of Roxette. But of course, what was the main thing with this album, was the fact that Marie was able and wanted to come back and go on. I personally prayed for her and hoped she'll get well, but like you and many others I didn't think we'll hear new Roxette music...I am so thankful I was was wrong, especially after I read her book and know how her comeback was important for her.
Very different roxette sound but I liked it too. Way out is probably my favorite from that album
I 've got it. I don't have the next.
Yes, haven't forgotten it, cool song, interesting lyrics.
Yes. It was a single. It was not easy to find singles in 2011/2012. 🎵
Many times I thought Roxette were finished... was so grateful with each album... I remember thinking 'one wish' was final.. so happy when charm school came out! I really felt Roxette kept making music for their strong fan base... and I am very appreciative! ❤
Love it! For more like this one! ; )
Obvio, en este tema dejan ver toda la versatilidad musical que siempre caracterizó a Roxette. Únicos.
always, with pleasure....
Yes I love this song and the album. The Roxette returns!
Yes cool one from Charm School 🥁🎸🎼🎼
Yes! Very very very good! 😍😍
Yes one my favs❤
Yes!! Great album. Have on very expensive vinyl 🙏 but sounds great. PS track 2 is longer on vinyl than on CD 😀😍
One of my absolute favorites.
Love it! One of my faves on Charm School ❤
Thoroughly enjoyed this album 😊
Wikipedia offers a curious insight! "The song features a distinctive introduction, performed on a mouth harp. Gessle described it as an obvious album opener, and said: "We needed a cool intro, and we had fun thinking about what [we could use]. We joked about having the sound of a cat giving birth, or a dying cat, or something stupid like that. Then someone suggested a mouth harp. It sounded really weird, so we went with that. It felt like a nice comeback for Roxette: the first sound you hear from us after ten years is a mouth harp." HAVING THE SOUND OF A CAT GIVING BIRTH, ya'll!!😂
Yes I Love this Music
Oh yeah! I remember that’s being almost ten years I was waiting for a new CD. Só I listened a snippet of each track on Amazon, I think. The chorus of this song always came to my mind since then
Bassflow remix, boom!💥
It's a great song... i like it
Yep. Both editions
Yep again. Diggin'... Must be in Norway in 1988 or 89. /P.
Cool trousers. You may laugh now but I really loved all your outfits back then. And hairstyles..😁❤
I like these oldies 😀 I wonder how it was possible to do without laughing that they were singing playback without microphone stand 😀
Oh Per, you wore the coolest clothes and had the coolest hair. Very cute! This is my favourite Rox era..... keeping finding these please?
Amazing show in Norway 🎶🎉🥰
Best RECORD ALL TIME FOR ME DRESS FOR SUCCESS🎤🎹🎻💋💄🎼
Always did like those trousers, it's great that you still have them.
Just listening to your first album, I still love the song Sleeping Single. Thank you for the music.
Geeking on the "oldies" on the weekend. I do the same thing to your stuff. Weekends, week nights, at the office....
it's actually amazing to think how awesome the song eventually came out to be despite that Marie was tired of it and mad when she did it.♥️♥️ the song suits Marie fantastically and the video shows it very well.
Per, hm, you are thinking about old times, me too... Where are you? Always and forever #polishheartsforroxette. Be safe, take care ❤️❤️❤️
My favorite song. 😍🎶🎸💖
