I wasn’t a big fan but they had a lot of hits in the 90s
Often wonder if radio stations have the inside knowledge on some of these things that the end is near .. as recently I've been hearing the song joyride an abnormal amount.
As a hardcore bogan-music-only punk in the 90's, I always kind of liked Roxette. Can't explain why.
So much so that in a job where I had to compile and analyse data from Fact Set, I called the database Faxette Joyride as a tribute.
Hashtag loser.

Rene Auberjonois passed away too. I knew him as Odo in Star Trek: DS9 but he had a long career.
You never watched Boston legal?
Yes, and it was great, but DS9 was my immediate first thought.
For those who don't remember him in Mash, he was Father Mulcahy in the movie, but not in the TV series.

She died from brain cancer, so it wouldn't be a big surprise if they had some idea that the end was coming. Also, Roxette sold a lot of music, so it could just be confirmation bias.

Never apologise for liking the music that you like I reckon. Unless it’s accordions. Fuck that shit.

that Roxette chick was haaaawt
also, they wrote awesome pop hits. It's a pretty great run of tracks. I unashamedly like nearly all their most well known songs

The first savage garden hit sounds exactly like Roxette .

The term legend gets tossed about a lot, but Snell was the actual BEST of his time. Olympic golds, Commonwealth golds, world records...cos I am a geek for this stuff, I've watched his Olympic races on Youtube quite a few times. The way he just blew away the opposition on the home straight was a thing of beauty.

Not many in the conversation with Sir Peter to be NZ's GOAT.
Before my time but that vision of him putting the hammer down in the Tokyo
800m1500m awesome. John Davies always said he was sprinting as fast as he could and Snell left him in the cinder dust.Found vision:
