Within hours, \"The Look\" was on the air. Within months, Roxette were number one in thirty countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat's the story you know. This book tells the ones you don't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e25 Songs. 25 Stories. goes inside the music — the studio sessions that went wrong and produced something better, the guide vocal recorded in fury that nobody dared re-record, the Christmas single that sat forgotten for two years before a Hollywood film made it immortal, the dummy lyrics that Per Gessle tried for months to replace and eventually surrendered to. Every chapter focuses on a single Roxette song: how it was written, how it was recorded, and what it cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause behind seventy-five million records and four American number-one singles were two people from a small Swedish town who were friends for forty years, made music together without ever dating or fighting or burning down what they'd built — and who were separated, in the end, by something no hit single could prevent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePer Gessle called some of these songs throwaways. Marie Fredriksson greeted others with a single syllable of scepticism. This book treats every one of them with honesty and affection — because pop music, when it's this good, deserves both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for fans of music history, pop storytelling, and the art behind the hit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT-BOOK","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":54000136683888,"sku":"979-8258664365","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/8543\/8576\/files\/ebook_1218_bdfb875b0a.jpg?v=1783518895","url":"https:\/\/antbook.store\/products\/roxette-25-songs-25-stories-behind-the-music","provider":"ANTBOOK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
