STOCKHOLM - EMI Sweden confirms all the articles about Roxette's coming projects in a press release today. Roxette will release a Greatest Hits album with one or two new songs that Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson will record together this summer. "It will be really great to go into the studio with Marie again," Per lets us know from Vienna, where he's doing Son of a Plumber promotion at the moment. "It's been a fantastic journey and I'm so happy to continue it together with her."

  In addition to this Greatest Hits album there will be "The Rox Box" – a collector's item with the substantial Roxette history: the hits, previously unreleased material, et. cetera. It will consist of three CDs and a bonus DVD. "Twenty years, it feels like yesterday," Per concludes. "Time flies when you're having fun!"

  The releases are planned for October.
