Roxette - Wish I Could Fly

[fabioluz77]

anf friday 2 march out new single "it's possible", can't wait!!!!!!!!!

[g7e7e7]

I am form northern land and this swedish serene sound gets me everytime and reminds me home and short but anticipated summers.

[g7e7e7]

This song is an epihany to all songs made by Roxette. OMG, it's a life healer.

[thegoodwash]

miss this 90's era

[vamp6767]

Wish there were more music videos of this quality. Really have to thank the director.

[236402]

really miss roxette song..

[MrRyansyah100]

Waiting for u in indonesia this year..

[MissCiklama]

cant wait they concert tonight at Sydney !!!!!

[ageense]

@MissCiklama And,how was the concert??greetings from Holland.

[MissCiklama]

@ageense no words for they concert ...simple the best !!!

[BohemianAngie]

One of the few songs that belong to my soul.

[karinama2000]

One of the best songs!!!!!!!!!!

[devilove17]

This song is amazing I love Roxette

[Danydlx123]

Fuck vevo

[Armandoplanes55]

Pretty song, like others of this musical group

[edo19964996]

AMO ESTA CANCION



[newidae1]

I listened to this again as a friend said he thought he heard roxette on the radio, but actually it was coldplay. It does sound like 'paradise'. Could Coldplay have gained permission to copy the song as both are on EMI and hope we wouldn't notice?

[MetalicB0x]

Driving the M3 conversion car home last night doing 180MPH on the free way at 3am. talk about living!!!!!! of course this song was on full volume as i crossed counties in minutes

[Meaningofthelife42]

@MetalicB0x Thank God, you're alive

[isaiafrancesco]

ebedullah

[Sukkis1]

Come on people, we wouldn't be argueing about paradises familiarity to this song if it wouldn't sound like this.

When i first heard paradise, this song came to my mind.

And btw, Roxette is waaaaaaaaaaaaay more better than Coldplay ;)

[miraclesMaker]

@Sukkis1 i really love coldplay and roxette has been my world but i can't say which is better..they are both super.

anyway, the two songs have nothing in common, a bit the sound of the bassline cheers

[Sukkis1]

@miraclesMaker I tried to be bit sarcastic, don't take me serious. But please tell me why people talk about paradise here?

[mrcelobox]

it seems to Coldplay?? for nothing!!!!!!!

[ERRORnerd]

Fuck that.. i have to use a Columbian IP to hear this song -.-

[phac1415]

Musica incrivel. Parabéns pelo post.

[marihutten]

Chords of this song : Bb F Gm C Dm G D Cm.

Chords of Paradise: Gm F Dm C  Bb.

The order in which chords are played are swapped a little so they're tonally different. But the rhythm and the hook are pretty much the same. If you overlap both they're way too similar (during the verse only). So, no, it's not plagiarism, but it's an undeniable similarity.

[marihutten]

Coldplay ripped the verse of this song. If you didn't notice buy yourself a set of ears. It's just the verse, not the whole song, so it's not enough to call it plagiarism.

[lovetoloki]

esa cancion la veia en canal 33 cuando era pequeña pero nunca ponian el nombre y rara vez lo pasaban en radio Z rock & pop hasta que un dia escuche ROXETTE .... me fascina esta canción ^^ ....

[catacombs1000]

I wish i could look as good as Marie does in this video

[LpsvL]

When you have ears you can hear that Paradise is not a copy of this song.

Both songs are very good :)

[jedker68]

Stare dobre czasy...kto dziś tak śpiewa?

[GMagnno]

Make every whisper turn into ice cream.

[maryannafan]

Well, I'm here cause coldplay's new song reminded me of this one... But I like them both :)

[ozarkalfa]

BOOBS at 3:09 and beyond.

:D

[ozarkalfa]

I'm here just because someone said it's a ripoff of Coldplay's "Paradise."

[grandeaugusto]

Paradise is a copy??I don't think that,so many other songs are copyng for others too.Its very diferent "para-para-paradise" and "Wish i could fly'.Think that!

[yeahh93bel]

@grandeaugusto it's about the backing track, not about what they sing ;)

[supervince1990to]

Bellissima!!!!! 

[timmhg]

This song is a very good sample to live a music orgasm.

[spanishblockbuster]

ROXETTE welcome to Spain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[manzanitata]

I wish I could fly to the para-para-paradise (8)

[Lanjablogg]

who made this music video?

[sorintm75]

And  i!

[michaelb3197]

Paradise in one word.

[MRcupcakecats]

0:09 NAKED!

[boscolo3rd]

Why in every Roxette ballad there's always someone half naked or some sex insinuation?

[lowrentsblock]

@boscolo3rd I believe this video is in fact the censored version. The Swedish? version has simulated sex that look real - it's on YouTube. As for the reason, you have to remember they're Swedish, and the director is Jonas Akerlund (who likes to shock).

[MuseAmore]

The first thing I thought after the first listening...the incipit is very very similar!

[w77oof]

love this song and the video is just gorgeous. i love all Jonas Akerlund's videos though :0)

[andiperim]

I wake up in a dream :))

[Acemanius]

Coldplay vs Roxette...same lyric theme on start, same stuffed animal aka Per I want you know, same Text table aka Roxette June Afternoon....Coldplay is great band, but inspiration from Roxette....to much.

[alswink]

Ummmm.....how is this a knockoff????

[NolavAvaloN]

yeah ok,, nothing like paradise.

[y3gu1t4]

Kisiera `poder volar... llegar hasta ti.... TE AMO

[MidgetmaniaRIP]

Coldplay's new song sounds nothing like this...

[geodacius]

@MidgetmaniaRIP coldplay sucks dude.



[MidgetmaniaRIP]

@geodacius That's your opinion, that's fine :) I think they're great and, this may be fact, what they do is great.

They do a LOT for disadvantaged (aids, 3rd world, etc) kids and people. They've hosted a lot of funds and such, so that's a pretty good thing :)

[Ralfslva]

@MidgetmaniaRIP I thought the same. Incredible. I miss roxette`s new songs :(

[Gooneygoogoo79]

@MidgetmaniaRIP I'm new to both of these songs and speaking as a musician I can say that Coldplay copied this one.

[BlackMilkCunt]

@MidgetmaniaRIP shit on coldplay.This is beatiful and best song!!

[MidgetmaniaRIP]

@BlackMilkCunt Grammar on English. This song is nothing like Paradise and vice versa.

[BlackMilkCunt]

@MidgetmaniaRIP i never learned english grammar.and i am not from english speaking land.

[sylvg]

ohh so i'm not the only one who thought coldplay's new song sounds like this..

[gianfrycancro70]

bellissima!

[limori84]

Igonna see them live in a week in Tel Aviv!!! OMG- can't wait!! :)

[angbella81]

Me too, can't wait!!!!

[idoandrade]

MEU DEUS QUE LINDA MUSICA BJUSSSS IVAN ANDRADE SALVADOR BRASIL

[BlackMilkCunt]

This is really beautifull song!

[1977krystof]

Dla mojej kochanej Atki ktora bardzo bardzo bardzo KOCHAM .Jestes kochana myszko

[BlackMilkCunt]

@1977krystof

Souhlasím s tím.

[mayakoma5]

this is amazig song for me.........

[DPCWOOD1970]

They dont make music like this anymore

[CoconutJoel]

Its been years since heard this, and i thought mrs and i had heard all Roxette during the time

Such a good song

[Deemjuhh12]

Coldplay would never steal anything, why would they listen to a Swedish band anyway??

[boscolo3rd]

Per looks like he's dead lying on the couch.

[boscolo3rd]

Still traying to figure the necessity of the naked couple in the scene.

In the other hand, it's the first video after the almost home made looking 'Do You Get Excited"! where Marie appears really sexy.

[IWishTodayWas2days]

Coldplay didnt steal anything...u ppl better shut up...the notes are different.

[Fillelovefotball]

@IWishTodayWas2days im with you. Coldplay didn't steal nothing :)

this is a great song though, but still..

[IWishTodayWas2days]

@Fillelovefotball yeah this is a great song by a great band and..... Coldplay didn't steal it ! :)

[CMZgt1]

just AWESOME!

[kakolukiah]

seems a lot with the new song of coldplay, paradise

[ayunkz]

roxette are LEGEND ! NUFF SAID !

[TheZippoMontefiore]

Vagina boob.

[jonstjamesnumba1]

[1979HeadScar]

The new single from Coldplay is a TOTAL RIPOFF of this wonderful song!!!!

[septeracore]

@1979HeadScar Which one?

[jondeleon1114]

@1979HeadScar The word "Total" in ADJECTIVE form is defined as "involving all aspects, elements, participants, resources, etc." As a NOUN, it means "the whole; an entirety; etc." To claim that Coldplay's song, "Paradise," is a "total ripoff," is, well, a TOTAL LIE. 1.) The structures are completely different...

[jondeleon1114]

@1979HeadScar ...2.) The chord progressions are not the same: The only chord progression similarity that might be noted is the first 2 chords of each song's intro...THAT'S IT! Roxette - [switches scales from verse (A#) to chorus (E#)... So, the roman numerals for her intro/verse's chord progression, are as follows: VI, I, II. The R.N.s for Coldplay's intro are: II, V, VI, VIII, V. ...

[supchats1]

@jondeleon1114 Erm... E#? What kind of music have *you* been taught?

[jondeleon1114]

@1979HeadScar ...Remember when I stated that Roxette's verse was in a different scale from her chorus? Well, that chorus is on the same scale as Coldplay's paradise. On that note, I would like to further compare the chord progression's of each song; i will give the benefit of the doubt to The Roxette zombies. ...

[jondeleon1114]

@1979HeadScar ...Lets presume that "I wish I could fly's" verse was on the same scale as its chorus and, therefore, on the same scale as Coldplay's "Paradise," the scale of E#. Here are the R.N.s of each song: Roxette - II, IV, V. Coldplay - II, V, VI, VIII, V. In our american numeric system: Roxette: 2, 4, 5. Coldplay: 2, 5, 6, 8, 5...

[jondeleon1114]

@1979HeadScar ...It doesn't take a rocket scientist to note that these two progressions are completely different. Roxette's intro contains only three chords while Coldplay's has 5. They both start off on the same chord but veer off in completely different directions. The melodies are completely different...

[Pinger1983]

@1979HeadScar true. i came here to listen to it for this reason.

[Jhereko]

@1979HeadScar hahaha because it has strings? what the fuck ever.

[windscard1000]

@1979HeadScar some what i can see what your saying but its not a rip off coldplay sounds better and way different the first to seconds are similar to each other.

[samentov]

@1979HeadScar  yes yes

[Lanjablogg]

@1979HeadScar name of the copy????

[ornemau5]

@1979HeadScar Yeah, I actually got here cuz I said omg the intro is soooooo like another song. Since this was one of my favorites back in '99, wasn't hard to find out. Still love them both, make more like these <3 hahah,

[originaljuls]

@1979HeadScar I agree, the intro is pretty similar!!! Unbelievable! :)

[kichukdave]

@1979HeadScar BS, coldplays is better, it sounds nothing like this at all, and it just rules, this is not even gonna stay in my head for longer then a hour.

[ponnef]

March 1999 : Wish I Could Fly hit  # 11 U.K., of their best ballads!!

[jadesadento]

[ i did like this song before i knew english ") ]

[jadesadento]

[martini926]

[jadesadento]

@martini926 its a soul type of music ,, the guys who sing it well ,, are required to have a unique voice that touches the soul ,,, etc etc , some thing like opera singers

[GothicNight21]

I know people will disagree with me on this, but IMO this is their best song.
