“Let Your Heart Dance With Me” was planned for the Good Karma album the Roxette were in the midst of recording, but were sadly unable to complete due to the tragic passing of lead singer Marie Fredriksson in December last year. These songs and many more have been compiled and completed by Gessle for an upcoming box set titled, Bag of Trix – Music from the Roxette Vaults.
Gessle also sat down for an interview to discuss the collection, how it came together and he and Maries’ interminable friendship that led to a lifetime of worldwide success. Watch below.
