Roxette still best-selling in Brazil
Written by TheUnpairedBoy on October 20, 2003 to Sales & Charts.
Although there’s almost one year since their releases, the Roxette compilations are still selling very well in Brazil. Since two weeks ago, two big virtual shops have done discounts in various titles, and the Roxette ones became some of the most sold.
On the virtual shop “Submarino”, which is one of the biggest virtual shops in Latin America, “The Ballad Hits” is the #1 on the Pop Internacional’s category. “The Pop Hits”, “Roxette’s Greatest Hits 2000” and even “Tourism” are best selling right now too.

And we can’t forget that EMI Brazil didn’t promote the compilations so much! That’s a very good news to all brazilians fans!!
To see more details about the sales you can visit my website about Roxette (in portuguese) - roxon.org ;-)

It’s always nice to read about Brazil on TDR.
Really Roxette is very famous here. It’s a long time of success and we have a “hotblooded audience”, as Marie said once.
Marie and Per, I’m waiting for you here sson.
Best wishes.

By the way, thanks everybody who visited the Rox´on site. Peter (TheUnpairedBoy) had a real hard work doing it. I hope sooner or later we can offer an english version of it for all of you. Rox´on!

Fernandinha said on October 21, 2003 23:36:
Ihaaaaaaa, @Peter, você falou farofa??? Adoro farofa!!!
@Jaque, viva a complexidade do português e viva eles que escreveram em brasileiro ao invés de português na notícia. Tá vendo, é tão complexo que eles se atrapalharam ohohohohohhoho.

Roxette Brasil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
C´mon, we know that almost every Brasilian have already heard the beat of Roxette, ask someone here to get a proof. The Biggest problem in Brazil is that our ” EMI” doesn´t care ’bout the poor brazilian fans and never release rare itens or even singles. We are happy that the Daily Roxette announced our single-less country and you got to know that it appealed every single fan here...
Tack sa mycket!!!!!!!!!!!

Não querendo cortar a onda de ninguém... mas esse top 5 da submarino é um jogo de marketing... Se vcs tentarem uma outra banda o top 5 que aperecerá será outro completamente diferente.
Ou se entrarmos na página dos mais vendidos veremos que o roxette não está nem no top 10 INFELIZMENTE!!!
For non-portuguease spoken!
This top of submarino is a marketing action... If you try another band link the top showed is completely different... And if you try the link of best selling in the home page you cannot find roxette there!
PS. A rox’on é bem legal!!! Nice site!
Fernandinha said on October 22, 2003 22:03:
Hei Lerox why did you do that? Do you know that in Brazil people like them and they really sells very well.
Do you know...the problem here is not only EMI but some fans.
Hej people, they are really selling well on Submarino and in other stores eather.
Aff, I can’t believe in it Lerox!
Fernandinha said on October 22, 2003 22:06:
Val, a farofa é porque ela entrou aqui agitando tudo ;)
Beijos,

@lerox, a sessão de top10 geral do site é atualizada de 1 em 1 mês. os Top5 que ficam do lado (que são relacionados a cada categoria - por isso você vê várias versões) são pouco atualizados também... porém existe uma maneira de ver realmente os mais vendidos de cada categoria... Você entra na categoria que quer ver (no caso do Roxette, Pop Internacional - bandas), e coloca pra ver os cds em outra maneira de ordenação... Pois bem, aquelas posições são as dos mais vendidos, e são atualizadas todos os dias pelo que eu já vi ;)
Valeu pelo elogio ao rox’on!

I don’t know how and why my yesterday’ s comment was deleted!
So again!!!
Fico muito feliz de estar errado! Foi mal galera!
Realmente na lista Pop Internacional o roxette está arrebentando tendo até pearls of passion in 21º lugar! D+
I’m very happy because I’m wrong! Sorry people!
Actually in the Submarino’s Pop international chart Roxette is on the top with many albuns. Even Pearls of Passion is in 21 position! Great!
Apesar de achar que ninguém, a não ser os brasileiros, lê esses comentarios, me senti na obrigação de pedir desculpas nas duas línguas.
Mas eu nunca me senti tão bem por estar errado!!!
Best!
Lerox
PS. Alguém aí é do Rio de Janeiro?

Yes, here in Brazil, there are many people that like Roxette, I know Roxette last year in my school and I discovered the Best Band Of the World, and I made my friends like Roxette, too.
Every day I listened Roxette in the radio.
I spread Roxette for my city.

Bye.
