Roxette – Dangerous (US 12″)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1989

“Dangerous” is a song by Swedish pop duo Roxette. Written by Per Gessle, the song was released as the fourth and final single from their second studio album, Look Sharp! (1988). Gessle penned it just before Roxette’s first tour in 1987. Released in May 1989, it was the group’s third top-10 single on the US Billboard Hot 100, reaching number two. It also entered the top 10 in Australia, Canada, and six European countries. The music video was recorded in the ruins of Borgholm Castle. In the UK and Ireland, “Dangerous” was released as a double A-side with “Listen to Your Heart”.

The accompanying music video for “Dangerous” was filmed during Roxette’s concert at Borgholm Castle in Öland, Sweden, in July 1989. It is a mix of rehearsal and live performance footage from that show and was directed by Doug Freel.
