"Reveal" is a song by Swedish pop music duo Roxette, released on 10 January 2007 as the final single from the duo's fourth greatest hits compilation album, A Collection of Roxette Hits: Their 20 Greatest Songs! (2006). Gessle was reportedly unhappy with the original album version of the track, so a slightly remixed single version was created, incorporating a re-recorded middle 8. Two other remixes were also created: one by Swedish house duo The Attic,{{cite web |url=http://www.dailyroxette.com/reveal-to-be-next-single/ |title=The Daily Roxette {{!}} "Reveal" to be next single |author=Thomas Evensson |work=The Daily Roxette |date=15 December 2006 |accessdate=12 September 2017}} and another by record producer Kleerup.{{cite web |url=http://www.dailyroxette.com/reveal-tracklist-out/ |title=The Daily Roxette {{!}} "Reveal tracklist out |author=Thomas Evensson |work=The Daily Roxette |date=13 January 2007 |accessdate=12 September 2017}}
