Considering the new album will be released next october/november, do you think is it likely the new single will get radion airplay during summer?

All in all, at least if they release another Gh compilation, please MAKE its promotion BIG, GOOD and INTELIGENT.
..ok...Am I asking too much for EMI? Perhaps yes...

Yes, if they releasing another GH, hope for big promotion. There was no promotion during Ballad Pop, but then Marie was ill. But now situation changed. It´s useless to releas album without promo.
But on the other hand, it looks very positive, Per, mrs Dimberg and Kjell works hard on Roxette celebration. Looks at the latest news. Medley, Sirius, canadian radios...

My guess is that the GH will be released in October to take full advantage of the christmas market. This being the case, the single would probably be released a couple of weeks before the album, so either in September or early October. Normally airplay would start 4-6 weeks before release, so I am guessing that the promos should be sent out to radio stations in august sometime.

I love summer but I´m yearning for the summer end. Hope that new singl will be something between Something In The System and Little Miss Sorrow with great riffs aka Opportunity Nox and Gimme Shock Treatment. Hope that second new song will be something like Wish I Could Fly. C´mon...

Think back to 1995, when DBUGTTC was released. Album out October, single out Sept, airplay sometime in August. I know times have changed, but i reckon it’s gonna be similar. NO doubt the song will get leaked out on internet before then. Still waiting for titles

I’m gonna try and not download any of the new Rox stuff until I get the CD’s. It ain’t gonna happen, but I can try!!!!

It could be appropriate to start the radio airplay before the summer falls. As long as I remember, in the recent years all artists and bands planning to release a new album in september or october start the radio airplay of the new single even in august...(I can remember last year with Texas and “Getaway”...the album wasn´t released until october, but at least in UK the radio airplay started in july, and they released the single commercially in august). Considering Europe is the main market for Roxette, an august airplay and the possibility of getting the new single in september may be fantastic. Considering the hunger of Roxette...the chance to have the new single (with the Rox-Medley on it and perhaps something more) just in september is amazing...
