"Sleeping in My Car", written by Per Gessle, was the first single taken from Roxette's 1994 album Crash! Boom! Bang!. It reached No. 1 in Sweden, No. 14 on the U.K. Singles Chart and No. 50 on the Billboard Hot 100.

When Roxette did a concert in Beijing, China in 1995, they were asked to change the suggestive lyrics of the song. "We agreed, but didn't change them in the end," says Per Gessle. [1]
