Hi
I can’t seem to find any details of South African releases of the new material. Has anyone seen/heard anything?
Thanks!

The only shop I could find that mentions the release is Take 2. They expect it by 23 October. http://www.take2.co.za/product.php?id=2082411
I also heard a rumour that Look & Listen will have the GH and the imported RoxBox by the end of the month. But don’t quote me on that...
I’ll just save myself the trouble and money and import them directly.

Yeah but only in a digital format and that’s just not the same!

WOW! Finally some SA fans!!! I think i’ll just give it a while and see wether it’ll be released here, otherwise just order it over the internet! Die stupid radio stasies speel net dieselfde ou goed oor en oor, en nooit iets NUUTS van Roxette nie!!!

@Han: Yeah, just a rumour. Sadly, I don’t talk to my usual source of info as often as I used to, so now I have to get the information elsewhere. ;)
BTW: Are you gonna do a bulk import for us again, or should I just browse on over to Skivhugget on my own?
@Conrad: Like purplemedusa said, the standard “Hits” will be released here. L&L will import the others. So, if you don’t mind waiting (or paying through your arse), you’d probably be able to get the RoxBox from there. I do suggest importing it though. It’ll definitely be cheaper.

Guys guys guys, I ordered SOAP digipack from Bengans.se last year. Got it 3 days after release date. Not bad, and the price was the same as a standard cd in SA.
They have the RoxBox listed again (and they are also once again the “official supplier” on roxette.se)
459 SEK (freight 55) - not bad at all! And as you should know its roughly the same amount in ZAR.
Order here:

Cheers cheers

@conradnel...
ek stem 10000% saam met jou met die stasies wat 24000 keer n dag dieselfde goed oor en oor speel - and yet, no new roxette songs.

Hey Radio, this was discussed before but EMI is basically only releasing the standard compilation here and there’ll be some imports of the RoxBox and *maybe* the limited edition of the hits compilation. No single will be available- but that’s no suprise!
