Roxette

Hey, let’s celebrate! Roxette’s 25th birthday!

by


 

On July 8th, 1986 – 25 years ago – Roxette have released their very first single called “Neverending love”. It is a high time to organize some international celebration of this fact today and tomorrow..

RoxetteBlog Team highly recommends you to:

  •  change your avatar to the orginal “Neverending love” single sleeve (other sleeves and pictures from 1986 are accepted as well)
  • tag all your post with @Roxette Official on Facebook and with @TheRealRoxette on Twitter
  • post a “Neverending love” video – it is up to you to decide if you want the “moonlight&tree” version or the one with tables 🙂

 

Thanks Roxette Latinoamerica for idea and inspiration!
