Recording and promotion[edit]

Per Gessle originally planned to record two new songs for The Pop Hits.^[1] 'Opportunity Nox' was written by Gessle, and first recorded at his Tits & Ass Studios in Halmstad on 4 March 2002.^[2] Recording later took place at EMI Studios in Stockholm in October 2002, a month after vocalist Marie Fredriksson's diagnosis of a brain tumour.^[3] Due to her illness, the track features very little of Fredriksson's vocals. Her illness also affected the recording of another song intended to appear on the compilation: 'I Like It Like That', which Gessle said 'was never recorded because Marie got ill, so there was no chance to record it.' The track later appeared on Gessle's 2005 album Son of a Plumber.^[2] Instead, the compilation concludes with 'Little Miss Sorrow', a re-recording of an outtake from the duo's 1999 album Have a Nice Day.^[1] 'Opportunity Nox' was issued as the compilation's first and only single on 25 February 2003, with an animatedmusic video for the song being directed by Jonas Åkerlund and Kristoffer Diös.^[4]

Limited edition units of the compilation contained a bonus EP of three more previously unreleased recordings, along with a song which had previously been released as a b-side on their 1999 single 'Stars', 'Better Off on Her Own'. The EP also included another Have a Nice Day outtake, 'Makin' Love to You', which was recorded in January and February 1998. A further two outtakes from the sessions of their 2001 album Room Service are also featured. 'Stupid' had originally appeared as the album opener on Per Gessle's 1997 solo album The World According to Gessle, and appears on this album in a slightly re-recorded (in November 2000) form, while 'Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla (You Broke My Heart)' was recorded January 2000.^[1]

AllMusic	^[5]

Although Heather Phares from AllMusic gave the album a positive review, she wrote that 'casual fans will have their needs better-met by a Roxette collection that features their classic ballads as well'. She went on to call The Pop Hits 'an exhilarating collection of their sugar-buzz pop moments.'^[5] Tina Kindler of Laut.de said that the album contained 'earworm-like pop songs which have a high recognition factor', but lamented the absence of other singles such as 'Fingertips '93' and 'Fireworks', and was critical of the songs on the bonus disc for not 'fitting in to the overall concept. With the exception of 'Stupid', the bonus tracks are all very quiet and slow, and would have been better placed on The Ballad Hits.' She went on to say that 'because Roxette made relatively simple pop music, it wasn't 'cool' to admit to liking Roxette. But it was a completely different story behind closed doors, of course, otherwise one can hardly explain the incredible success of the two Swedes.' She summarised by saying: 'People who only briefly flirted with Roxette will be overjoyed with this album. And people who enjoy this album no longer need to feel ashamed. Honestly.'^[6]

A Collection of Roxette Hits: Their 20 Greatest Songs! is the fourth greatest hitscompilation album by Swedish pop duo Roxette, released on 18 October 2006 by Roxette Recordings and Capitol to celebrate 20 years since the release of their debut album, Pearls of Passion. It was issued in conjunction with a six-disc box set, The Rox Box/Roxette 86–06. The duo recorded 'One Wish' and 'Reveal' in June 2006, their first songs recorded as a duo since vocalist Marie Fredriksson's brain tumourdiagnosis four years earlier.

Original deluxe editions of the record featured a bonus DVD containing 18 music videos. It was a commercial success upon release, and went on to be certified gold or platinum in several territories, namely Germany, Ireland, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. In 2011, the compilation was reissued in numerous territories to coincide with dates of the duo's Charm School World Tour—this version included the Ballad & Pop Hits – The Complete Video Collection as its bonus DVD. This version was the first to appear on the Australian Album Chart, peaking within the top twenty.^[1]

Background and production[edit]

The compilation contains two new songs, 'One Wish' and 'Reveal', which were both released as singles. These were the first new tracks recorded by the duo following vocalist Marie Fredriksson's brain tumourdiagnosis in 2002. The songs were recorded and produced by Per Gessle alongside frequent collaborators Clarence Öfwerman and Christoffer Lundquist in June 2006 at The Aerosol Grey Machine in Skåne—a studio where Gessle had recorded the majority of his other work since Fredriksson's diagnosis, including his solo albums Mazarin (2003) and Son of a Plumber (2005), as well as Gyllene Tider's comeback album, Finn 5 fel! (2004). Gessle later said it was a 'big mistake to record ['One Wish' and 'Reveal'] in Skåne. Marie didn't feel comfortable there. I think she felt excluded.'^[2]

Expressen	^[5]
PopMatters	^[6]

James Christopher Monger of AllMusic incorrectly described the compilation as containing just four singles, along with twelve album tracks and two 'new cuts, and a couple of remixes', but said that the album 'dutifully sums up the hook-filled careers' of Fredriksson and Gessle, whom he called 'Swedish pop masters'. He also commented on the conjunctive release of this compilation with The Rox Box/Roxette 86–06, writing: 'Longtime fans who balked at the group's mammoth six-disc box set will find this concise and impossibly catchy compilation a whole lot easier to digest, both cerebrally and monetarily.'^[3]

Mike Schiller of PopMatters gave the album a positive review, calling it 'the best [Roxette] compilation out there for a pseudo-fan simply looking for all the radio tunes', and saying: 'The first half of this collection is full of songs that any child of the late '80s will absolutely recognize, even if the immediate recollection is met with a bit of a blush.' He also lamented the duo's drop in popularity in the United States in the late '90s, writing: 'Given the latter half of the album, [that's] kind of a shame, because the straightforward, fairly rocking 'Sleeping in My Car', and the rather lovely 'Milk and Toast and Honey' (which sounds like Dido before Dido was Dido) could have livened up the American pop landscape that had so unfortunately passed them by. Heck, even 'Stars' could have made some noise as the best 'Ray of Light' knockoff out there.'^[6] Anders Nunstedt of Swedish publication Expressen was more critical, complaining that the new songs were inferior to the unreleased tracks contained on prior compilations The Ballad Hits (2002) and The Pop Hits (2003), but said that, during their early '90s peak, Roxette 'scored an ideal radio sound and made precise pop songs in a different class than the competition'.^[5]
