Edel America (EAR) and Roxette Recordings have entered into an agreement with EMI Sweden whereby EMI companies worldwide will have the opportunity to release the unique, U.S. version of the greatest hits compilation, "Don't Bore Us, Get To The Chorus."

Many EMI operating companies – including obviously EMI Sweden – have decided to release this compilation, with some of them doing so as early as this Monday, October 9th.

As TDR readers already know, one of the "new" tracks on the album is the single "Wish I Could Fly". The song was a pretty big hit in Europe and has found a warm welcome in the States from both radio and press. It continues to slowly gain airplay on U.S. radio stations, with the current promo tour expected to spike that – at least a little bit. Ryan Urcia, a spokesperson at EAR, told TDR that the label "really appreciates fans calling the stations right now to request the song."
