5.0 out of 5 stars 5 Star Hotel Room Service, June 6, 2001
By S. Foster (Moira, Co Armagh United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
God, I LOVE Roxette (see my review of Have A Nice Day), & this album only continues to solidify my conviction that Marie Fredriksson is one of the world's leading vocalists. Have A Nice Day will probably remian my fave Rox album but Room Service does give a run for money, particularly the first electro-pop Centre of The Heart which has been a mammoth Euro-hit. The next single, Real Sugar, the album's opener is an infectiously catchy rock track which works in a similar vein to HAND's amazing Crush On You. The album's true winners come in the giddy rock of Make My Head Go Pop, a superb summer song & the album's closer My World, My Love, My Life, gorgeous ballad. Any1 ever noticed how the last track on each Roxette album is invariably the best of the album??? While it does not match the haunting beauty of Beautiful Things on HAND, Marie's control & delivery are unparalleled. A CD worthy of any record collection, it proves Per & Marie's enduring consistency & talent as our generation's equivalent of ABBA (and at times are often better).

4.0 out of 5 stars Gets better with each listening!, October 17, 2001
That is, perhaps, the best thing about Per Gessel's pop- it's casual and fun, but not disposable. I love the Roxette sound- vocals that soar and soothe, sweet melodies, and hard driving, crisp guitar. There is an attention to detail in this music that is reminiscent of Queen. Many Roxette songs are fine tapestries of guitar, vocals, percussion, strings, and synth- with very thoughtful placement of aural delights. Roxette songs are never boring. I have to add a line commending Per's ability to select phenomenally good-sounding instruments. I was happy to discover with this album that Roxette hasn't lost their wonderful sound. On my first listen through I wasn't very impressed. Room Service is not as bulletproof as Crash Boom Bang! (or Joyride), but it is at least as good as Have a Nice Day, which says a lot. There are several gems on this album- Real Sugar, Center of the Heart, Milk & Toast & Honey, and Make My Head Go Pop. No Time to Get Here is a deliciously simple balad with traditional hooks, however it doesn't compare to Spending My Time, or What's She Like? from previous albums. Jefferson was a big disappointment (IMHO) because it could have been a much better song. The music is excellent, but the lyrics didn't go far enough to match, so it seemes off-balance. I bought the Japanese import version of Room Service with "Entering Your Heart", which proved to be well worth the extra money. it's at least as solid as the best songs on this album, with a very typical Roxette feel. If you are a Roxette fan, you should definitely buy this album. If only they would tour the US one more time...

4.0 out of 5 stars Back to basic, but not really..., April 18, 2001
By "primephoenix" (Oud-Beijerland, ZH Netherlands) - See all my reviews
I'm a big fan, so I bought this album as soon as it came out and was far from disappointed. Roxette went back to the kind of music they made in the late 80s and early 90s and added (quite) a bit of today's sounds. A mix of uptempo pop songs and beautiful ballads. Personal favorites: "Fool" and "My world, my love, my life". If you like Roxette and their kind of music, you'll love this album. Recommended for every RoxFan!!
