Amazon.co.uk Review
Over their long career Swedish power-pop duo Roxette (Marie Fredriksson and Per Gessle) have had more hit records than they can probably remember. This compilation, put together to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the duo's involvement with music, is an assiduous and timely reminder of their prestigious legacy. This compilation presents their greatest achievements to date, covering their significant releases from 1986 to 2006. Fans get a good long look at the band's output, from 80s hits like "It Must Have Been Love", "Dressed For Success" or "Listen To Your Heart", through 90s singles "The Look", "Dangerous", "Joyride", and "Run To You", and right up to recent examples of the group's extraordinary pop prowess, such as "Sleeping In My Car" and "The Centre Of The Heart". The set even contains recent singles "One Wish" and "Reveal". If this doesn't provide a salve for your Roxette itch, nothing will. --Danny McKenna

ROXETTE BOXSET!
Great album.If you like nostalgic cheese.This is for you.Every track is a winner.If only they had called it Roxette Boxset for comedy value.Come on Emi..over to you! Sid,Burton.

For Old time's sake
I'm not a big fan of Roxette, as a matter of fact, the only song I like is "The Look" - I remember when it was released it was all over the country. I really didn't like any of their other songs, but people made them big, radio stations, TVs, I guess they hade a good marketing manager. As implied in the subject, I bought this one for old time's sake. In a nutshell, It's not a very good Greatest Hits album ...

Roxette - rekindled my hope for romance
On a recent trip to Crete I discovered a bar that played non stop 80's classics. The highlight of the evening was when the tightly clad and bushy moustached DJ powered into some Roxette classics. At this moment I looked across the bar and saw the man of my dreams. He strolled over to me and purchased me some Ouze. After several beverages his lack of teeth and hair and our 50 year age gap did not seam important. Saidly this holiday romance could not last - but i will always have that night of passion to remember as long as i have this CD to play to remind me.
