Critical reception

[edit]

Bryan Buss fromAllMusic described the song as "A/C-leaning".[3] Bill Coleman fromBillboard stated that this "undeniably infectious popper will no doubt keep the super-hot duo in heavy pop radio rotation well into the winter."[4] Pan-European magazineMusic & Media viewed the song as "another melodic, radio-friendly effort", that's "already doing well in the US."[5]

Music video

[edit]

The accompanyingmusic video for "Dangerous" was filmed during Roxette's concert atBorgholm Castle inÖland, Sweden, in July 1989. It is a mix of rehearsal and live performance footage from that show, and was directed by Doug Freel.[6]
