Listening to "The Look" and I am actually tearing up, it's so good and so evocative of the way the world sounded for half a second

have just learned that It Must Have Been Love is in fact a Christmas song, originally titled "It Must Have Been Love (Christmas for the Broken Hearted)" and was written at the behest of their record label to "come up with an intelligent Christmas single"
was a big hit in Sweden and then three years later the producers of "Pretty Woman" asked them for a contribution to the soundtrack, so they replaced the only instance of the word "Christmas" with "winter" and robert's your father's brother, massive international hit
love old school record biz stories like this, with clueless producers/investors just throwing money and promo energy at people hoping for "a hit" whatever that means anymore
anyways great song, will add the original to the holidays playlist in a few months
