Roxette - Listen To Your Heart (1988) Album version - Tv - November /RE

Roxette was a Swedish pop rock duo formed in 1986 in Halmstad. They are Sweden’s second-best-selling music act after ABBA. “Listen to Your Heart“ is a song which was originally released in Sweden in September 1988 as the second single from the duo’s second studio album, Look Sharp! (1988). It was written by Per Gessle with former Gyllene Tider guitarist Mats “M.P.“ Persson. The song went on to become one of the most successful singles of 1989, reaching number one in both the United States and Canada around November 1989. The track was the first song to reach number one in the US without a commercially released 7-inch single. (Per Gessle described “Listen to Your Heart“). Its lyrics were inspired by a close friend of Gessle’s, who was in “emotional turmoil, stuck between an old relationship and a new love. A year later, I call him up in the middle of the night after a few too many glasses of champagne, saying ’Hey, you’re number one in the States.
