About " Greatest Hits" albums:

I really dont understand all the “fans” that complain about “too many Greatest Hits albums”. I see it like this;
Rox have only relased 1 real Greatest Hits : DBUGTTC in 1995. The one from 2000 is THE SAME album, only that its the US version. You wouldent say that Ace Of Base have relased two greatest hits only because the EU version and US version have diffrent cover and slighly diffrent tracklist, huh? And then we have BEE. Well, yea its a ballad compilation. But its in spanish and different from the original versions. Sio I cant see why som many ppl here are negative about the new compilation albums that will be released.And hey, if you reallydont want it: DONT BUY IT!

I think EMI should do Roxette GH albums like what Madonna did with hers. She released one in 1990 (The Immaculate Collection) with her ’80s material, and later on release another with the songs that don’t feature on the first.

I think in this greatest hits compilation there will be included live material from the tour.
But there are in comparison to the last greatest hits album not so many new singels:
WICF
Anyone
Stars
Salvatin
TCOTH
RS
MATAH. Have I forgot one??
This is the fact, why a new greatest hits album shouldn‘t be realesed. On the other hand Per knows what to do!!
Cheers

i think that it just destroys what little credibility they have when they allow emi to constantly re-release matierail over and over...it makes it seem like they r milking the same dozen songs or so..besides is they can remaster maries catalogue where is roxette’s remastering...or a singles box set even like was sone with morrissey?

Well good idea I guess, only Pay the price doesnt fit at all I think as its never been a single.
Like you say I also think that anything new from Rox is always good and also I know that they of course dont release these GHs for us the ’hardcore fans’ but just for people who might be interested in an (updated) GH from Rox.

Pay The Price was released in Japan or China, one of the two anyway.
japeke said on June 12, 2002 20:27:
Then they now got the chance to release pay the price in europe as a single!!!!!!!
JAAP
