Search - Roxette :: One Wish

If only it were more

"This single, with two tracks, sounds very Roxette, even though you can hear a slight difference from the 70's Marie and today's Marie.

The other track, the Rox Medley ... is a wonderful remix of 5 of our favourite hits. And anyone who loves Roxette HAS to own this medley. I am curious if it is all new, the tempo is upbeat, and the whole arrangement is, in a word, wonderful!

There's talk of Roxette getting back together seriously. That's my ONE WISH!!! Despite Marie's health she still sounds ABFAB. She may not have the energy, and instant spontaneity to hit the road (touring!) but if the world could have another Roxette album ...

so this single fixed a fix.

"One Wish" was recorded in 2006 for Roxette's 20th anniversary. "The Rox Medley" is a b-side exclusive to the 'One Wish' CD single pressings. "It Must Have Been Love" is the "Christmas For The Broken Hearted" version, the original 1987 version, later included on the 1997 reissue/remaster of 'Pearls Of Passion'. I've always preferred the original version over the 1990 remix for 'Pretty Woman' and the worldwide single release. Likewise, "Turn To Me", the original b-side of "Christmas For The Broken Hearted", was featured as a bonus track on the 1997 reissue/remaster of 'Pearls Of Passion'. Both of these tracks are included here in brilliant newly remastered audio, and do they ever sound better than ever!!! They are quite an upgrade from the 1997 remaster! Here is your only chance to get updated remastering of these songs! The songs are not included on the 2009 remastered Roxette albums."
