FOOL

Time for another imaginary single, just one on its own this time, feeling like a Fool?

“Now you know what I look like…”

“One of those songs where you have so much fun in the studio making the demo…it was really hard to do the real recording with Roxette… It sounded different, I always felt the demo sounded better…maybe it’s just in my head…You have to kill your darlings.”
Per Gessle, TPGA, 2014

Another coulda woulda shoulda moment? Surely another standout track from ‘Room Service’ and an obvious single choice, no?

Alas, this was another we never got to hear live on stage. It would have been a perfect addition to the ‘Room Service Tour’ back in the day too. As such, not videos for this one, only the Spotify Playlist. Great to hear the demo.

This was one of those instant songs again that we’ve spoken about before. It’s delicious in its delivery, it’s punch, Per’s music and lyrics, and of course Marie’s delivery. Would have been a tip top single.
