“Have a nice Day” in 1999 and then “Room Service” in 2001 ....uffff they are right they deserve a small break because they have worked a lot over the last 3 years... this special GH compilation albums are really wellcomed ... because it still put news songs into both radio and our heads and also shares old songs which were never released before so it’s going to be like a journey not only through the big hits but also through Roxette’s sound evolution...we will on these special EPs songs that were recorded in diferent periods and for that reason do have a diferent sound from eachother .... that’s is so cool...This seems to be a mix between 3 things: a typical best of album, a rarities album and new songs... for that reason this 2 GH compilation is more than just something ordinary...it’s even better than many of the GH albuns of other artists being released now ....
I personally think that the ballads will hit bigger than the uptempo ones...but once again that depends on people’s taste ...for me BOTH could reach the top stop LOL:) But even if they don’t i don’t care i juts want the music and the rest ...give it to dog’s plate we will eat it ....LOL:)
Now it’s time for Marie and Per to take a break to spend more time with family and to slowly work on news song for a new studio album maybe in 2004 who knows...but it doesn’t make sence to force them to hurry up to come up with something only because this daily roxette is filled with demading fans who find hard to “go with the flow” ...CREATIVITY NEEDS TIME AND CAN NOT BE RUSHED...:)
Enjoy the new songs and these cool Compilations...
” A thing About you” and “Breath” (i love this title particullary)

I understood every compilation included 2 new songs. So these 4 new songs would become and EP. So just 4 new ones.

no... they said :”Both compilations will include two new songs and an extra EP with previously unreleased songs.”

Ferdan: hi for the second time around it’s nice to meet you here but i still see you can’t cope with any of the choises Roxette makes... yes they could have released a news album and Per admiits it but they didn’t however no one should takes this so seriously and allow Per and Marie to work on their own projects and new songs the way they feel like it...
Let’s pretend you were a musician....and a famous one would you feel confortable if you had to release a news album every single year because FANS DEMANDED IT and if you didn’t they would be angry at you....Do you think this would be normal?
It’s it easier for you as a musician to work and focus on your own music with time and effort rather than doing it because you’re forced to it and then you would release just crap...(look a t Britney Spears...what a joke)
I know that you would love to see a new album come out me too everyone in fact ...but we should not make a war out of this Compilations release story... this is only a nice way to keep Roxette music alive on us and on the radio...remember they have nes tracks to be released as singles and you will hear them on the radio soon...isn’t that also important to see their music being played today ...
Remember that the EP new songs are old ones that were never released so because of this a new album with them doen’t make much sence because the sound and production are so different from track to track ... so releasing them as EP-tracks is a cool idea....i mean no ones today is releasing things in this way Roxette are the only ones at least now...
Please don’t take this so personal.... there is something about you that makes me believe that there is still faith on music and that’s the ultimate reason why we love Roxette ...forget the crapy stuff and listen to their music always...
PEACE & LOVE (Marie said this one on a RS Tour concert last year)

3new songs on first ep + 2 songs in the first gh = 5
3new songs on the 2nd ep +2songs in the 2nd gh=5
5+5=10.... almost a complete album..... was there really a need of both gh?
