About this album

Look Sharp! is the breakthrough album that turned Roxette into international pop heavyweights. Issued in 1988, it pairs Per Gessle’s hook-heavy songwriting with Marie Fredriksson’s clear, commanding vocals, balancing radio-ready synth-pop, polished rock and ballads with real emotional lift. The album’s irresistible singles, especially The Look, Dressed For Success and Listen To Your Heart, helped establish the duo far beyond Sweden and drove major chart success across Europe and the US. Glossy but sharply written, it remains one of the defining late-1980s pop records and the release that secured Roxette’s global reputation.

Genre: Pop & Rock
