hi! can anyone tell me whether this rox box and the new singles will be released in south africa?

I don’t have much info, but as you know as a fellow South African, we WON”T get the single, the RoxBox will probably be imported by shops like “Look&Listen” or “Musica”. No on knows much. But you know we NEVER get Roxette singles here.

Mail me at [email protected] or....

I live in Kathu, South AFrica - Northern Cape.

Hi queenmicky! And welcome!

I’m still holding thumbs for a SA release, but like CoyRoy said, L&L will probably import it (and sell it for some ridiculous price).
If not, we’ll probably have to import it ourselves. ;)

Greetings from Jo’burg. :)

I received word from EMI South AFrica (and like I told Martin/CoyRoy) there will be a standard edition of the compilation, NO single and NO Boxset BUT Look and listen WILL be importing the Boxset.

I will ofcourse, like usual, order the singles in bulk and some of the other related material.

If you are South African and would like more info, just drop me a mail and I will add you to my newsletter group!

hey! now that is just plain unfair! why do roxette fans in other parts of the world get better attention than their south african fans? what’s ur e-mail address?

Well considering that the US gets virtually nothing, I think we are rather lucky getting the basics!

I just hope the RoxBox won’t be TOO expensive.
I guess it will be available from end of October, beginning November?

Any word on that Purps??
