However, I’m really lucky to have found an amazing voice and a brilliant performer in Lena Philipsson.’
‘I co-wrote Lena’s first major hit back in 1986 and she’s one of the brightest shining stars Sweden has ever known. I’m extremely proud she wants to join me in my trek to keep the Roxette legacy alive.’ ‘This is all about my Roxette songs, this huge bundle of music and lyrics I’ve been writing for well over three decades,’ he added.
