She Doesn't Live Here Anymore

"She Doesn't Live Here Anymore" is a song by Roxette, released as the third and final single from their greatest hits compilation Don't Bore Us, Get to the Chorus! Roxette's Greatest Hits (1995). The song had originally been written and recorded for the duo's 1994 studio album Crash! Boom! Bang! but, according to Marie Fredriksson, that version "sounded really tired", and has yet to be released. It was later re-recorded in July 1995 with members of Per Gessle's former band Gyllene Tider. It is the only song in Roxette's discography to not be produced by Clarence Öfwerman.[1] "She Doesn't Live Here Anymore" was only released in Germany, Italy and the Netherlands,[2] peaking at number 86 on the German Singles Chart.[3] The single included two remixed versions of "The Look" as b-sides. Its music video was directed by Jonas Åkerlund.[4]

gollark: But the basic-seeming stuff involves horrendous amounts of computing because of various stacked abstractions.
gollark: Anyway, thing is, most people don't actually do stuff which, well, involves a lot of raw computation on their computers much.
gollark: Still, it does not help much.
gollark: I actually just use web discord.
gollark: <@!543131534685765673> Because of various inefficiencies, having my computer sit here "idling", with just Discord open and some music playing, still requires executing probably a few billion instructions per second.
