Are One Wish and Reveal the only two songs that Roxette have released since Room Service?? If not, what are the titles of their other songs? And whats the Rox Meledy?? And will all these tracks be released in some way (maybe in the RoxBox) to Australia?

Here you have a more comprehensive info:
In 2002 they released “The Ballad Hits” featuring 13 classic ballads plus 2 new songs:
- A Thing About You (lead single)
- Breathe (closing track)
The enhanced maxi-single included the video-clip for “A Thing About You” too.
There was also a 2-CD special edition, including an EP with 4 extra songs:
1- The Weight Of The World (previously unreleased, also used as B-side for “A Thing About You”)
2- It Hurts (previously unreleased, outtake from “Have A Nice Day”)
3- See Me (originally released as B-side of “Salvation” single, outtake from CBB)
4- Every Day (previously unreleased, outtake from “Room Service”).
In 2003, “The Pop Hits” saw the light of day. The twin compilation featured 13 up-tempo hits and:
- Opportunity Nox (lead single)
- Little Miss Sorrow (closing track, outtake from “Have A Nice Day”).
The B-side of the single was “Fading Like A Flower”, live version recorded in Brussels during the Room Service Tour. The 3rd track in the maxi-single was “Breathe” (Demo).
There was also a 2-CD special edition for “The Pop Hits”. This time, the EP included the following bonus tracks:
1- Stupid (new version of this song, originally from “The World According To Gessle” album).
2- Makin’ Love To You (previously unreleased)
3- Better Off On Her Own (originally released as B-side of “Stars” single).
4- Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla (You Broke My Heart) [previously unreleased]
I don’t know if tracks 2, 3 and 4 are demos or not.
“The Rox-Medley” is a medley that features 6 classic Roxette tracks:
- The Look
- Joyride
- Listen To Your Heart
- Dangerous
- It Must Have Been Love
- Fading Like A Flower
It was released as a radio promo-CD only, but it will be released as the B-side of the new, “One Wish” single in late September.

You should be able to still find copies of Deluxe Editons of TPH/TBH with the bonus EP around. Otherwise, all of the EP tracks except Stupid & Making Love To You, will be on in the RoxBox which is being released in Australia - no confirmed date as yet.
For the full tracklist see http://www2.dailyroxette.com/article.php/2095
The RoxMedley - the only option would be to import the OW single.

As far as I know there were 2 singles released after RoomService. The first one was “A Thing About You” from the Ballade Hits album and after that “Opportunity Nox” which came from the Pop Hits album. Both great songs by the way!
Ater that it became quiet.. untill One Wish.
