I did not like the first song on this CD, it simply did not grab me. Okay, that's out of the way.
I agree with the reviewer below, the Higher Order of Magnitude comments. The rest of the songs on this CD are all compositions of extraordinarily high quality. While C!B!B! is lightly attractive as pleasant back-ground ear candy in ordinary social circumstances, closer examination of the lyrics and deeper listening to the music reveal fantastic contemporary poetry and magnificent accompanying music.
This man Per Gessle is a living muse. The simplicity-yet-depth of his verbal expression -- for example, "been holding on too long - to long," which is NOT mere repetition -- is unbelievably thoughtful and subtle. That particular song, in fact, "What's She Like," conveys the impression of intense pain and regret. My first thought was that a woman with remarkable powers of expression had composed it, casting into words her feelings after being rejected by a lover... and I was startled to see that Gessle wrote that song (and then I saw that he wrote the words/music for all the others too).
Sit down with this CD, and read the words while playing the songs, and you will be captivated. Ask yourself what process brought these compositionss into being -- consider what sort of thinking creates art like this. You will realize you cannot do it yourself, you will understand that this individual has a tremendous gift.
I am not generally familiar with Roxette, much less am I friends with the band members (which would prompt artificial promotional flattery). NO, my appraisal of this work is completely honest -- I think "Crash! Boom! Bang!" constitutes an absolutely superlative set of songs, and I vigorously recommend it to anyone who appreciates true poetic/musical art. Per Gessle's composition talent is of the highest quality -- and Marie's fantastic vocals definitely bring it all to life.
This music is the best. Enjoy.
