coyboyusa, are u sure, because I thought that Rs has only sold around 700.000 copies? If it is 1,5 million is good because it;s almost as much as Have a Nice Day!!!!!!

Per said that it had sold over 1 million a while ago, so I think that 1,5 million is correct

No, over a million for certain!!!

i wouldn’t be surprised if HAND sold more than RS ’cause HAND is more commercial album ... or at least they had support from EMI UK for the 1st single ..

hand sold 4.5 million albums not 1.5 i was disappointed in the RS sales since TCOTH was the first sweden #1 in a while it should been a bigger album

By the way, RS was the 10th most sold foreign album in FINLAND in 2001. It sold more than eg Michael Jackson’s “Invincible”, Depeche Mode’s “Exciter” or REM’s “Reveal”.

@Bunny: Per said, that RS was the most commercial album they have ever made. HAND was something new roxette tried.

I also think that Have a nice day is more comercial but only refering to “Stars” which was the most comercial song on that album. The music was so “trendy” that it didn’t presented Roxette really.
But at the same time I also think that Room Service is a little bit comercial than Have a nice day because it can hear that that’s Roxette’s sound and nothing else. They went back to the roots. This is the reason that Room Service is more comercial.
