Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Joyride is the third studio album by Swedish pop duo Roxette, and one of the last gasps of superproduced 80's soft rock in the United States. As of its April 1991 release, Joyride was state of the art pop-rock, stuffed to the brim with bells, whistles, and Rickenbackers in an ultimately successful multi-tracked bid for chart-topping glory. The title track and the Power Ballad "Fading Like A Flower" rushed the Billboard top 5, representing the pair's last major US hits before trends shifted out from underneath them, relegating them to a European Widget Series for the remainder of the decade. | |

You Fool! | |
Joyride (Music) / int_16365fa0 | comment |
You Fool!: A rare romantic example - Gessle's girlfriend sent him a note beginning "Hello, you fool, I love you!". The line recurs throughout the title track and stands as possibly the most coherent thing there. | |

Power Ballad | |
Joyride (Music) / int_2100e8c2 | comment |
Power Ballad: Wouldn't be a Roxette album otherwise. "Fading Like A Flower" and "Spending My Time" both qualify. | |

Bookends | |
Joyride (Music) / int_5313c266 | comment |
Book-Ends: In a likely Shout-Out to Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, the album begins with a carnival barker encouraging listeners to "join the joyride" and ends with the same speaker directing everyone to the exits. | |

Rearrange the Song | |
Joyride (Music) / int_b24ce4b2 | comment |
Rearrange the Song/Re-release the Song: "Soul Deep" was a single from the band's first album, Pearls of Passion and appears here with (relatively) updated production and an emphasis on guitars over synthesizers. | |
