Hej alla!
Great tracklisting and great choice for a single out of Mazarin! Definately one of my favs from the album. This time the single will have 3 unreleased songs, very much like the “I want you to know” single, right?
1) Tycker om när du tar på mej - 3:25
Is it the album version? Here my computer says the album version is 3:29. I still think it’s gonna be the same.
2) Mannen med gitarr (demo 20 november 2002) - 3:15
Great song already recorded by the artist Monia Sjöström and included in her 2003 album “Söderns hjärtas ros”. The songs starts with a guitar playing quite the same intro of “Om du bara vill”. It’ll be interesting listening to this demo of Per, to check if this guitar was originally on the demo or became an “incredible coincidence” ;)
3) Viskar (demo 30 augusti 2002) - 3:29
Yet another remake of a song from “Scener” that joins the B-side of “På promenad genom stan”: the wondeful acoustic version of “Inte Tillsammans, Inte Isär”, without Marie Fredriksson this time. Why was Per re-recording these songs? What was he thinking of? Was it just for fun or he really intended to include some of these into “Mazarin”? Hope this remake becomes as good as “Inte ...”.
4) Kyss från en främling (demo 18 oktober 1999) - 3:03
This song was already recorded by the group “Blue Light”, as stated in “The Look for Roxette”. No further information available. When translated, the title means “Kiss from a stranger”, just like Gyllene Tider’s song from “The Heartland Café”. Maybe it’s the same song with re-written lyrics in Swedish.
It’ll be nice to know from Per himself about these details. It’ll be great if anybody attending the DVD-release could ask him to reveal these “secrets”.

WOW...*speechless* If i didn’t have tp swot i’d be partying the whole weekend to celebrate the release! Not only is it the BEST song on the whole Mazarin but also it’s packed with so many demos! :) So unbelievably great!
Thanks Gorgeous Gessle, give us the releasedate to count the days! :o) Can’t wait to see the cover either! :)

how nice! =)))) thanx a lot to everyone who made it all possible!

Well, this single seems to be great!!
But I really hope the “new” demo of “Viskar” sound so good as the original from “Scener”... cos this song is amazing... but with Marie´s voice together.
At least it´ll be finally a 4-track Per´s single, and not just 2 tracks... and from my fave song off “Mazarin”. :)

Yes. Kyss från en främling, is in english “Kiss from a stranger” and is from the beginning a Roxette song.
This is a real single! Goood Work per! Lovley!

Yes, Kyss från en främling is indeed Gyllene Tider’s Kiss From A Stranger. The lyrics are very similar.

Well, I agree with most of the people about the tracklist; wonderful choice of songs and this is finally a complete maxi-CD after some time - containing 4 tracks. I can’t wait to hear the demos! BTW, where can I get hold of Blue Light’s version of “Kyss Fran En Främling”?
Ketil said on November 22, 2003 14:15:
Very interesting tracklist.
The big question is why did Per make a new demo of Kyss från en främling (Kiss from a stranger) in 1999 and Viskar in 2002?

This is going to be a HUGE single in sweden... Mazarin is back on most-selling list in december!

Just found the TONDTPM single on CDON. The releasedate was “2049-12-31” Don´t think thats the right one. Do you? ;-)
matthias said on November 23, 2003 22:28:
I want “Om du bara Vill” to be the next single after “Tycker om när du på mej” because it’s the best song from “Mazarin”... A demo would be fun, too!
daniel_alv said on November 24, 2003 01:38:
that’s CDON’s indication of that the date is not set yet.. look at the lists and u will see that it’s listed as coming
om du bara vill is to slow... SPEGELBOLL, vilket håll du än går or födelsedag has to be no 4

Considering how EMI/Capitol operates, don’t rule it out!

När det känns som första gången du stulit en kyss från en främling…

I didn´t like the cover at all... but what does really matter is the music ;)

I’m wondering if it’s Gabriel’s handshape. The size of a five year old should fit! ;-)
