Our Take

Ah, Roxette. The Swedish duo that brought us that infectious earworm "The Look" back in the late 80s. If you've been living under a rock and haven't heard of them, then Charm School might just be the crash course you need in their brand of pop-rock sensibilities.

Charm School opens with "Way Out", a jangly toe-tapper that sets the tone for the rest of the album. With Marie Fredriksson's powerful vocals and Per Gessle's catchy guitar riffs, it's clear that Roxette haven't lost their touch after all these years.

Tracks like "Speak to Me" and "In My Own Way" showcase the duo's ability to craft catchy melodies that will have you singing along in no time. And while some of the lyrics may veer into cheesy territory, it's all in good fun – after all, who doesn't love a bit of cheese every now and then?

But it's not all nostalgia and throwback vibes on Charm School. Tracks like "No One Makes it on Her Own" and "Dream On" show a more mature side to Roxette, with introspective lyrics and a greater focus on instrumentation.

Overall, Charm School is a solid addition to Roxette's discography. It may not reinvent the wheel, but it's a fun, easy listen that will have you bopping along from start to finish. So grab your dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and let Roxette charm their way into your heart once again.
