Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars ....and that 4th Star is for "Entering Your Heart" alone!!!.......2004-12-14

Overall, if you're a Roxette fan, this is a good CD. It doesn't go anywhere they haven't been before - it is, actually, a step backwards from "Have a Nice Day" in terms of musical experimentation. "Real Sugar" and "The Centre of the Heart..." are standouts among the 12 tracks contained on the standard release...BUT [bonus track] "Entering the Heart" steals the show!!! I can't believe this was left off of the North American release - it raises goosebumps the way that "Fading Like a Flower" did the first time I heard it.

4 out of 5 stars A great album.......2001-06-25

Roxette's 'Room Service' is a great album. I highly recommend it to any die hard Roxette fan or to anyone who appreciates good music. Their uptempo songs are brilliantly done, and the ballads are wonderfully melodic. Out of all the tracks on the album, there is only one that I didn't instantly fall in love with, although it is growing on me. Overall, an excellent effort. Roxette keeps on rockin'!!!

4 out of 5 stars "Room service, please...".......2001-05-11

The Scandinavian powerpop duo is back in 2001 offerring...well, Room Service (pun intended!).

12 tracks of what the fans ordered. 12 tracks of unmistakable Roxette pop. 12 tracks that will once again stand the test of time.

Room Service, unlike the 1999 release Have a Nice Day, is more guitar orientated, one of the prerequisites of the fans. No wonder tracks like "Real Sugar" (the album opener and 2nd single), Looking for Jane, It takes you no time to get here (a definite Dawson's Creek soundtrack choice for the future), Jefferson and Fool are PACKED with the guitar production and sound that has been a trademark of theirs since the 80's.

The 1st single, "The Centre of the Heart (Is a suburb to the brain)" gives the impression of a dance orientated album, which is not the case. Some songs do include the right kind of thumping which all good dance tracks are made of, but with a twist: here we have the guitars bleeding as well. "Make my head go pop" will definitely sit right up there with club and radio classics like Madonna's "Ray of Light" and Alice DJ's "Better off Alone", mixing guitars with pop with drumloops. Awesome.

The ballads on the album are extraordinary! "Milk, toast and honey" has already been snatched up as the theme music for a Brazillian soap opera. A song that can be named in the same sentence as "It must have been love", "Listen to you heart" and "Wish I could fly".

Anyone for some Room Service?
