Roxette

Returning to action after a decade-long hiatus, Roxette don’t skip a beat on 2011’s Charm School. Roxette were never in the thick of things, never setting the pace, but they did reflect their times during their 1988-1991 peak…

Roxette's 2011 comeback album, Charm School, was so successful – it hit number one in both Germany and Switzerland and was awarded gold certification in several countries and platinum status in Germany – that the band didn't wait too long before recording a new album.

The album, which was officially released on 23 November 2005, is a double CD album packed with deeply personal and highly inventive music according to Gessle…

Per Gessle always was the most interesting part of Roxette. While that band did produce some of the catchiest mainstream pop music of the late '80s and early '90s, they often fell back upon weak, overly slick production and on their more Top 40 pop-oriented side, paying less attention to Gessle's excellent rockers…

The Change is the sixth album by Swedish pop singer and songwriter Marie Fredriksson, and her solo debut in English. Written and recorded during two years of medication and darkness after the removal of a brain tumour in September 2002…
