Per Gessle
Per Håkan Gessle (Swedish pronunciation: [pɛːr ˈɡɛs.ˈlɛ]; born 12 January 1959) is a Swedish pop singer-songwriter, guitarist, and harmonicist. He is the lead singer of the Swedish pop group Gyllene Tider and formed Roxette with Marie Fredriksson (Gessle being the chief songwriter in both bands). With Fredriksson's illness in 2002, he went back to recording solo albums, reformed Gyllene Tider in 2004 and became a successful artist in his native Sweden, selling multi-platinum albums.
Music career
Early work
Per Gessle was a founding member of Gyllene Tider, in 1976. They quickly became a popular group in Sweden, but after their fourth album, The Heartland Café (1984), sold poorly compared to their previous albums, the group disbanded. Gessle wrote. "We decided to put Gyllene Tider to rest... until further notice."
In 1982, Gessle released his first solo album, Per Gessle and after Gyllene Tider split-up his second album, Scener, quickly appeared in 1985.
Roxette
Gessle and Marie Fredriksson had been friends for a few years before they came together as Roxette in 1986. After the success of their first hit "Neverending Love", which was written by Gessle, they quickly recorded Pearls of Passion using material which was originally intended for Per's third solo album.

Historier Vi Kan
by: Per Gessle(English: Stories We Could Tell)
Words by Per Gessle, Music by John Sebastian
Published by Warner/Chappell Music Scandinavia AB
Talar till mej själv igen / och undrar / Varför gör man det man gör? /
Reser runt på samma väg / i samma spår som för / Åh historier vi kan /
Om allting togs ifrån en / och försvann / så kan jag fortfarande se
henne / på ett hotellrum någonstans / lyssna på historier vi kan
Hitta en gitarr / med sliten kropp och hals / med många år bakom sej /
för inga pengar alls / och sprickorna i lacken / och jacken i dess
band / berättar dom historier den kan
Åh historier den kan / om alla sånger / som den har fött fram / Jag
önskar att vi satt / på ett hotellrum någonstans / och lyssna på
historier den kan
Så om du är på turné / och spelar varje kväll / och tiden far iväg så
fort / och du undrar för dej själv / varför du inte tar ett tåg / och
hoppar av nånstans / så svara med historier du kan
Åh historier du kan / Innan du och jag / skiljs från varann / jag
önskar att vi satt / på ett hotellrum någonstans / och lyssna på
