In the realm of 80s music, few bands have left an indelible mark like Roxette. Formed in Sweden in 1984, this power couple of rock music - Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson - conquered the world with their distinctive sound, infectious hooks, and heartfelt lyrics. With a career spanning over three decades, Roxette's music has stood the test of time, continuing to inspire and influence new generations of music lovers.
Roxette's journey began when Per Gessle, a seasoned musician and songwriter, teamed up with Marie Fredriksson, a talented vocalist, to create a unique sound that blended rock, pop, and folk elements. Their early work was met with moderate success in Sweden, but it wasn't until the release of their second album, "The Look," in 1988 that they gained international recognition. The album spawned several hit singles, including the iconic title track "The Look," which topped the charts in multiple countries.
The duo's impact on the music industry was significant. They were one of the first Swedish bands to achieve global success, paving the way for other Scandinavian artists. Roxette's music also played a crucial role in shaping the 80s rock landscape, influencing a range of artists from The Bangles to Coldplay.
Roxette's music is characterized by Gessle's songwriting prowess, Fredriksson's soaring vocals, and a distinctive blend of rock and pop sensibilities. Their songs often featured catchy hooks, memorable melodies, and lyrics that explored themes of love, relationships, and everyday life. Roxette's sound was both timeless and contemporary, resonating with audiences across cultures and generations.
The late 1980s and early 1990s were Roxette's heyday. Albums like "Look Sharp!" (1988), "Joyride" (1991), and "Tourism" (1992) spawned a string of hit singles, including "Listen to Your Heart," "It Must Have Been Love," and "Almost (Here in Heaven)." These songs dominated the airwaves, topping charts and selling millions of copies worldwide.
Roxette's legacy extends far beyond their impressive discography. They have inspired a range of artists, from rock bands like Foo Fighters to pop icons like Kelly Clarkson. Their music has been featured in various films, TV shows, and commercials, introducing their songs to new audiences.

Great Article … I really appreciate your article writing. But I have tried to figure out the vara hora how to put the vara hora. If you just explain that , that will be great help . I really appreciate that. I have spent hours to find but not figure out how to put it . Thanks
Himanshu, one Hora is one Hour, starts from Sunrise, first Hora lord is the lord of the same day, then Hora follows according to the increasing speed of planets.
I find your articles difficult to understand for 2 reasons.
One reason is because you use concepts only experienced astrologers would know. That maybe the audience you want, but that is also a very small market ….
The second reason is that your English is a bit non-standard.., and difficult to understand clearly … (maybe my mind is also not very flexible…)
However if you got your articles proofread (like all professional native speaker English writers do), the number of your readers would be much much more … and bring you more clients and followers …
Thanks for the free unsolicited advice which was not needed.
Thanks for promoting your services, that is not needed. If one can’t understand high-level knowledge they should learn to satisfy themselves with cheap knowledge available at other places and should not cry in front of those who give authentic and pure knowledge. People like you were reason behind loss of the real astrology.

How many languages do you speak? Instead of criticizing, should you not appreciate the effort he has put into learning your language and sharing their wealth of knowledge he has. Before suggesting to consult “”Shakespeare”” for APPROVAL, consider learning the original language by yourself. Since you’re having trouble understanding, may be it’s time to reflect on your own linguistic abilities. Why should someone have to learn your language to teach you a subject written in another language, If you’re truly interested, why not take the initiative to learn Sanskrit yourself?
Very beautiful article.
Hence there is some mistyped may be in calculation method i think.
When you are referring Pt Sita Ram jha ji in translation shloka 4,5
You wrote 2.3 ghati makes one Hora. I think it should be 2.5 ghati makes one hora.
Again in calculation You write multiply by 2 in ghatyadi ishtkakalam and divide by 5.
I think it should be multiply by 5 एंड divide by 2.
Yes, you are right there is some error in writing which have to be corrected, thanks for making me notice this, will soon update the article.
Thanks for positive response. Your article always Good. And give me always inspiration to think independently.
Hello. I checked my Hora chart and a shocking revelation about it keeps me in unrest. I have Leo Lagna in 1st house but Mars Jupiter Venus and sun are in 12th house. The first house has the other 5 planets like moon Mercury Saturn and ketu rahu. What does it mean? The wealth points are obviously down right? I’ll have to keep on working and money I’d get is 1/4th of it. Could you kindly help me by seeing if my interpretation is right or wrong?
