I first heard this song on the Roxette 4 CD collection entitled "The Roxbox" which was released this year. I really love the 4CD collection with some real rare gems like this song. Funny that it somehow pictures for me a sort of tongue in cheek dig at Hughie Green and his Opportunity Knocks TV programme. Those game shows are totally crazy and have become even more so these days. It's nice to have a light hearted look at this modern day phenomenon and I find this song is once again another top class Roxette number that encapsulates just how crazy these ideas that these shows propound about instant stardom etc can be and how funny they appear to the detached observer!
