Description:
Don't Bore Us - Get To The Chorus is a greatest hits album by Roxette which was released all over the world (except in the U.S.A.) in the fall of 1995.
Even though there are quite a few bootleg "greatest hits" albums available, and people might think of these as official releases, this is actually the first commercial greatest hits album thet EMI has released by Roxette.
The title Don't Bore Us - Get To The Chorus was first used on the spine of the album Joyride as a sort of subtitle and during the world tour "Join The Joyride" this message was printed on the back of Per Gessle's guitar picks.
The album includes four newly recorded songs of which You Don't Understand Me, June Afternoon and She Doesn't Live Here Anymore were released as singles. The Song The Look was remixed and released as the single The Look '95 in the U.K. only, but this version of the song was not included on the album.
The songs June Afternoon and She Doesn't Live Here Anymore were recorded with most of Per Gessle's group Gyllene Tider (Göran Fritzson was the only group member missing).
Produced by Clarence Öfwerman (tracks 1-16 and 18), Per Gessle and Mickael Ilbert (track 17)
