      I totally understand about per keeping the roxette legacy alive, I have been a roxette fan since the very start of them being known in the UK and saw them in 1991 wembley with support glass tiger
      I saw them in 2011 with Darren Hayes support and I saw the last performance in 2015 at O2 being only 5 rows from the stage... Marie was a wonderful performer live and showed so much fighting spirit, with her and pelle the drummer passed away it's never ever going to be roxette as we all knew it.
      I wish all the very best but sadly this is not going to be my new roxette.

      I've also loved savage garden... Their music reminds me of roxette...Darren Hayes was totally unexpected in 2011 and only knew when in a piece of paper on a stansion in wembley it stated support Darren Hayes... It was like my 2 favourite groups in one night... Darren Hayes was brilliant and I was so lucky to be their...
      Im sort of glad and sad I attended the last UK concert In 2015 at the O2......good to see them again but she was ill but so brave to sit and sing.... Sad to see her as I remember her back in 1991 and 2011..... But glad I got to see them one last time.

    *It Hurts*
    Lyrics:
    Nobody but me
    could know the way I feel
    I'm standing on the rooftop
    And I'm crying out your name
    I'm looking for an answer
    And for somebody to blame
    'Cause even though it's over
    You linger on my mind, oh
    Hurts, oh it hurts, really hurts
    In the middle of the night
    In the light of the day
    You know that it hurts
    Oh it hurts, really hurts
    And I wish I could be stronger
    No longer afraid
    Nobody but me
    could know the way I feel
    Oh it hurts, oh it hurts
    I'm trying to forget love
    The pain I feel inside
    I'm clinging to my pillow
    And the tears I cannot hide
    I wish it could be over
    So I can start anew, oh
    Hurts, oh it hurts, really hurts
    In the middle of the night
    In the light of the day
    You know that it hurts
    Oh it hurts, really hurts
    And I wish I could be stronger
    No longer afraid
    Nobody but me
    could know the way I feel
    Oh it hurts, oh
    Not easy to remember
    And even harder to forget
    Whenever I surrender (whenever I surrender)
    Oh, you're always on my mind
    (Hurts, oh it hurts, really hurts)
    In the middle of the night
    In the light of the day
    You know that it hurts
    Oh it hurts, really hurts
    And I wish I could be stronger
    No longer afraid
    Nobody but me, could know the wаy I feel
    Oh it hurts, ooh it hurts
    I wish I could be stronger
    Oh, but it hurtѕ

    Swedish version is much better if she sang in Swedish maybe a winner. Lena is great that album in 2004 including this song was 5 star. She deserved also to represent Sweden in the late 80s. Back then was more conservative on the stage, maybe if she was the same now would win because audience would focus on the excellent song and her voice than her style and pinky appearance

    Like others have said; the Swedish version is much, much better. Translating this song is a hopeless task. There are nuances in the language and in the sound of the words that will inevitably get lost. And her performance that some think are too happy considering the subject, isn't a problem in the Swedish version because of some of these aspects. And her performance in the Swedish version also is a bit different, more equivocal so to speak. It's easier to express yourself correctly while singing in your native language. In a foreign language, the performance easily loses some of its naturalness. But still, I think they did the right thing to do it in English. Singing it in Swedish to the international audience wouldn't have made any sense.

    That may well be, but that's a completely different story. What I wrote above merely explains why this song doesn't necessarily have to be about what you call "an anal adventure". That was my point, not whether the song was good or bad.

    But she is not acting... she is not supposed to look sad, so how can her acting be bad if she's not even supposed to be doing something that you think she should? :P
    I'm not saying a winner needs to involve humor, I'm just saying that you and probably a lot of people don't understand the humor behind Lena's performance and it's hard to explain :)
