This is why we call Marie the Queen of hearts, because her voice enters in all hearts leaving and touching each one them in a unique way. we will miss her for ever!

[@cswong71]

Marie has a knack putting emotions across different songs. She can do sexy, sassy, bold, melancholia, playful, wistful among many other things....And I like that she doesn't over-sing even when she is belting out fast tempo songs, unlike singers today where they tend to that with all the unnecessary runs and ad-libs....

[@CrueHead18]

No music like this anymore. It's so good.

[@ge_mig_nat_som_kanns]

”Is that a swedish thing?” - without understanding if you mean the scenery, the fika, the decorating or the porch I would say Yes. All this is very swedish.

[@rafaelvelloso568]

Another classic in Marie's sublime voice, beautiful. But don't forget to add "Call Of The Wild" and "From One Heart To Another" from the 1986 "Pearls Of Passion" album, "Things Will Never Be The Same" which has a fantastic ballad, "Silver Blue" , " The Rain " , among other wonders that you should explore from the duo, I'm sure you'll love it.

[@freddyhill8632]

I use to play this song on Sunday mornings. It was such a spiritual calming experience. Like taking in cool fresh air with no stress. RIP Marie

[@paulstiffle8443]

Thankyou for reviewing another Roxette song!! 😊 Love your reviews Anton!! Pleeeaassee do ‘Wish I could fly’ 🙏 My fav Roxette song of all time!!!

When they recorded "Room Service" Roxette was about to split. The day Marie had to sing M&T&H, she took a taxi to the studio and asked the driver to wait for her. She sang it, and immediately left the studio back home. By the way, the video was shoot in the Stockholm Archipelago.

[@pumadog]

The taxi story actually happened when she recorded some add-lips, not the main vocals. She didn’t get along with the co-producer of the album. Roxette planned to take a break after 2002, after the RS and NOTP tours and Hits compilation. That’s more than 2 years after the RS recordings.

[@tapanim6576]

Thank you for another Roxette reaction. Roxette is amazing and I can't wait for more Roxette reactions. Looking forward to reactions to Roxette songs/videos "Anyone", "How Do You Do?", "Salvation", "You Don't Understand Me" and "Wish I Could Fly".

[@MrMusic77]

Yeah You Don't Understand Me needs a reaction. It's a great song and video

[@theprofessor9980]

I really like the orchestration they liked to use in every song, every song they did was like to feel like a "heaven's sensation" if we're talking about ballads, this one is another example of that. Some other wonderful ballads you didn't analize are "anyone", "salvation" and if if we're talking about Marie solo album, i think another great one is "Sparvöga" altought it's in swedish language -

[@georgegeorgiev3946]

Please react to "I wish I could fly". The song is amazing and it was Marie's favorite Roxette song.

[@brejnhardt]

I have always wanted her coat... I love this song..

[@elizabethbodi5952]

This one is the most sweetest song of roxette. Sweden in summer and the fab lyrics go right to the heart. Thanks for this reaction 😍

[@BASSER81]

This song always brings about serenity. It’s like what you said peaceful. A Sunday morning, feeling content, not being in the rat race of life. The simplicity of milk, toast, honey, coffee. Slow morning news pass me by. It all leans to a feeling of relaxing and being free of the stresses of life.

[@manueleduardoestebantorrej8707]

Please react to "you don't understand me" it's an amazing son.

[@ninab9969]

I love how this song's only aim is to be cute and friendly and relaxing. Something very healing about it.

[@javierlb7826]

When you feel collapsed, listen to this song and all your chakras will be on point haha. The landscapes and atmosphere in this MV are amazing. you can react to Anyone and Salvation two great songs...Thx Anton

[@roxerforlife3663]

Love your reactions to these Song from Roxette 💖 Anton, I also love your frankness about your feelings/wants, it's very moving. It's weird but I've never had that desire to be "something" or "someone". Growing up I was very shut off, not aware of anything, friends would leave me and I never understood why😢 My mother called me useless, thick and stupid and that I would never be anything🤷 For Many years I felt angry, confused, hurt. Why wasn't I "normal"? 😢 But now, and I can't really explain this well, I feel that I'm flowing through my life and something/one is gently leading. 🤔 Yes the past still hurts, it has shaped me, has affected me, but I am me 😊

[@christinepeterson7391]

One of my favorite Roxette songs.

[@fernandosantamaria5852]

I use this video when I try a new TV or home cinema. Mari beside the see with this colorful coat is incredibly beautiful. One of my favourite songs. You should listen, She doesn't live here anymore, a great and powerful song. Bye.

[@roxerforlife3663]

Just viewed a clip about the making of "Anyone" video. Marie was asked if she preferred to sing or be an actress. Marie replied, when she was younger she was torn between singing and acting, Singing was more in her heart. I can see the acting side of her when she sings and that totally shines through, making which ever song come alive, especially when it's performed Live.💖

[@roxerforlife3663]

A great song from Marie's Solo work is "Dar Du Andas" /"Where you love lies" She recorded it in Swedish and English for a Film. It is a beautiful song, It's a song i would like to be played at my wedding, or (without sounding morbid) played at my funeral 💖💖

[@BadMoonandStars]

Hey Anton, Marie's autobiography is being released in English next year. It's on Amazon UK for pre-order, so maybe US too? I ❤ this song.

[@brejnhardt]

Per Gessle told that he had the lyrics in his head for about six months, before writing it, and Marie struggled in the studio recording it. Trying to find the "magic" in the lyrics.. But she loved it..

[@andreascavino1408]

Hi Anton! I LOVE watching you while you comment on my biggest love Roxette and Marie especially!!! Your feelings about their music are so true and I agree to almost everything you thing about music, lyrics, videos etc. It's great that finally a young guy like you can appreciate the power and level of this fantastic duo

[@roxer30]

Hey, your're living behind the best Roxette álbum HAVE A NICE DAY and the best song WISH I COULD FLY for reaction.

[@roxer30]

Thanks for the song reaction. Hugs from Chile

[@augen_stern000]

I find you are a great guy and I mean it... Thanks for all your Roxette Video Reactions, I like them a lot and hope for more 😉🙋🏼❤️

[@kentswahn8989]

Another phenomenal analysis, keep'em coming. Another suggestion is Anyone where the pure and powerful emotion in Marie's voice is so profound.

[@halmstad08]

Nice! Can u also react to " A thing about you " from Roxette ? Please ?

[@rob9994]

Excellent song!! Love it a lot.

[@fabiennewellinger1278]

yea new roxette video. Love this song too. Its soo easy going. I love her coat ;) she was wearing the coat also on concerts .Wish i could fly, speak to me, the rain or Anyone are also very nice for a reaction. so hope there is soon a new video:) can't wait;)

[@Ottuln]

Mmmmmm! One of my favorite chill songs to listen to. Absolutely loved this song for decades!

[@claudiorafael8974]

Anton gracias por tus reacciones a Roxette!!! Espléndido

[@acttony]

Thanks for reacting to my request! as you said it other songs bring too much love drama, this is an easy, relaxed song, that makes you feel good about the love you found. Like "you found it now enjoy it" sort of thing... and by the way, the remix of this song is very good as well

[@333mystic]

The remix is incredible given the song title :)

[@Dany-vy5wn]

their best album! i can't believe you are covering that song. so happy. thanks!!!

[@marox79]

Marie’s memoirs will be published in English for the first time next year. In case you want to get to know who she was.

[@TheMrlovegoodtimes]

I hade forgot this song. It brings back the time when life was simpler. Thank you for that!

[@roxerforlife3663]

Wasn't sure on this song when it came out until I saw the video, it then made complete sense to me💖 Love Marie's coat in this video, always wished I'd find it in a shop🙄

[@eugeniamendez1894]

Me too. I love the coat.

[@jesicadpsc]

I also used to love her coat, until Marie commented it was real fur and I am against animal cruelty,I don't even eat meat.

[@tiafielding]

I think this song was released pretty close (within a year or two I think) to when she was diagnosed with the brain tumor that started her cancer journey that finally took her in 2019 after something like 17 years.

[@riaanbehr7976]

You're right. During the Room service tour, Marie got hit by a guitar during a concert, and that's where things went downhill. A while after that she ended up in hospital and she had to record her vocals for Opportunity nox while she was in bed 😔 she will always be my queen of music 👑❤️

[@sosayweall2509]

They put out a hits compilation jist before her diagnosis a thing about you was the last video she made before the diagnosis

[@sosayweall2509]

And no she didnt get hit by a guitar she had a bain tumor my friend

[@riaanbehr7976]

@@sosayweall2509 I know that buddy. She got hit by the guitar in 2001 during the Room service tour and got diagnosed the year after when The ballad hits was released. She had to do her backing vocals for Opportunity nox in a hospital bed. They couldn't do a proper music video and that's why the video was animated. What do you think of the new Pop up dynamo album? I miss the voice of Marie but in some parts it actually sounds like her when the 2 females sing

[@ppsthlm]

Wow, you really open up about yourself in this video. You seem incredible!! Thanks for sharing. An eye opener. As for Marie and her performances, her voice tells so many stories,just though emotions. She doesn’t need words, just the emotion is what makes her the very best singer the world has ever seen. Incredible song and thanks for your interpretation of it.

[@carlhallden2807]

Love to see your reaction on the centre of the heart! Especially the golf scene in the end lmao! Also from room service and a super cool song 👌

[@BobbyDazzler440]

Beautiful, melodic and pleasantly haunting.

[@DulIllah]

This song is my most favourite of Roxette. I miss you Marie

[@markdavidson9100]

Room Service took a few listens but now I love it, Is shorter than their previous albums, and on tour, only performed the three singles and a Marie composition ‘little girl’ live from it

[@davidjjanderson1981]

Great reaction Anton, please react to The Rain from the Roxette album Tourism ✌️

[@cristianwaraltte3351]

Hello Anton! This is my 5th time I repeat that you HAVE TO react to "Wish I Could Fly", taken from Have A Nice Day" album, 1999. It's number 1 in my TOP 10 Roxette songs. Thanks for this reaction to M&T&H.

[@celine4evauk]

Anton I know you'll find that kind of bliss, that happiness, that validity. I'm 44, still trying to do the same. It won't take you til my age lol - you've started to "sort" it years before me! And I hope when you do, one morning you'll listen to this song again and just say "Yes, this is it" I wish you all the happiness in the world, from ambitions, work, relationships, kids, and healing yourself and the world x

[@hassanukong1045]

Hey Anton.. aaron here from Malaysia.. THANX AGAIN.. for reacting another roxette song.. WISH I COULD FLY.. that’s the roxette song u should react next 😍

[@matnar99]

Hi Bro, im soooo happy to hear you making a Room Service song cause is one of the best roxette albums ever, hope you can do more songs. Then, thanks for the MTAH song review, perfect as always. Im learning so much about roxette music world hearing you, and the passion and love you bring is amazing, thanks bro❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@marox79]

I went to the Room Service record signing session in Madrid. Since my dad and sister came with me I was lucky enough to get 3 records signed by them both. I brought them some wine from home too, lol. It was my first time -and last-. A few months later I saw them live for the first time. I will treasure those memories.

[@MrMusic77]

sad video to watch. Marie looked so sexy in the Room Service videos (Centre Of The Heart, Real Sugar & M&T&H. and few years later everything changed. Her voice was amazing and just looked amazing

[@cruiser4550]

Another great reaction 😍 What next? "Stars" maybe 👍

[@gebus5633]

Listen to your heart was written about a coming divorce of a friend of Per's. I kind of feel there was a lot of melancholy and darkness in Marie, below the surface. Judging by the music she wrote herself. I remember her saying that the one song Per wrote that she felt she could have written herself was 'you don't understand me'. I know you perhaps won't ever listen to the Swedish songs she wrote, but they tend to be darker and more melancholic than what Roxette was doing. Great songs, but just so different. And I know she had hopeful songs too, but melancholy is what I get from them.

[@gaborbalogh6001]

Per wrote all the musics and lyrics. The only song Marie wrote was "see me".

[@gebus5633]

@@gaborbalogh6001 I think Marie wrote the music for Watercolours In The Rain as well. She just wasn't so comfortable expressing herself in English when it came to writing songs. At least at that time.

[@gaborbalogh6001]

@@gebus5633 You were right. I looked it up. I don't remember her being listed on the album at the time, I think, except on a few tracks as MP co-writer. Anyway, ROXETTE was formed so that with Marie's wonderful voice and Per's talent as a music writer, they would become world stars! And they were!

[@gebus5633]

@@gaborbalogh6001 I just had to check now, so I went back to my records, and got my 1991 Joyride CD, and it is there. Pretty small print next to the name of the track in the leaflet, but it is there. I don't remember ever reading it there though, I have a recollection I heard about it in a documentary about the making of Joyride, or something like that. But I do agree, Per and Marie were an amazing musical match! And I'm glad it's the music I've grown up with.

[@maximiliano13torres]

Beautiful song .. 😊

my partner hated i loved random Swedish music.... he still now fakes roxette music by saying... "three curtains vinal flooring custard soup abba looks so ikea so harsh now!.. he thinks all Swedish music is random words lol

[@martinodendaal1703]

With Room Service Roxette took the "rox" out of Roxette. The album, in my opinion, was a mess. Bad demo-like songs and weak, meaningless lyrics. Milk And Toast And Honey was a MASSIVE hit here in South Africa. Radio played it to the point where you actually got sick of it. Beautiful vocals from Marie, but the whole album I skip. It lacks passion.

[@jesicadpsc]

I think you are right. And this must be because Marie had very little participation on this album. She just went to the studio to sing, because Per and the new producer didn't pay attention to her opinions, she said so in her biography... She was the rock part on Roxette and Per is the pop and techno part.

[@martinodendaal1703]

@@jesicadpsc I think Roxette sold their souls to the Devil with the Have A Nice Day album already....trading their guitars and rock sound for stupid Techno shit. With Room Service they totally lost track as to where they should go. If I were Marie I'd quit Roxette too

[@jesicadpsc]

@@martinodendaal1703 She wanted to quit Roxette, but in September 2002,as you must know, she almost died. Then it came years of treatment, and all the bad memories left in the past... After her illness, many said that she wanted to see her public, she was willing to talk, take pictures, etc with her fans and only with Roxette she could travel(as she did)all over the world to meet her audience.

[@pumadog]

@@martinodendaal1703 I think they got a good portion of guitars back with Jefferson, Fool, Real Sugar and so on. Last album with Jonas. I like the album, only 2 skip songs for me: Make my head go pop and Bringing me Down to my Knees.

[@roxerforlife3663]

Room Service is the only album that hasn't grown on me much. But I love all of the songs on it, but something is missing. Not sure that the running order of the tracks is quite right, maybe that's why it feels odd to me 🤔🙄 Charm School and Good Karma, the last 2 albums, are Totally Brilliant. Plus when you add in everything Marie went through from 2002, then those albums are Amazing💖💖

[@Krille1987]

you forgot name Per, that he is 50% of Roxette. Bad, really bad.

[@antonreacts]

Truly despicable
