Customer Reviews

i had to replace this
I accidently broke this album, and when I had the money, replaced it, I only have two roxette albums, but this must be the best of the lot. Its a classic in my heart.

At their best
One would be forgiven for thinking that a group which peaked ten years ago probably isn't all that good. However, when the peak is Joyride, it can easily be understood that it was a hard act to follow. While later efforts have proved almost as successful (especially 1994's Crash! Boom! Bang! and 2001's Room Service), nothing has yet managed to beat the thrashing guitars and catchy tunes of Joyride (1991). The singles are great, of course - Joyride, Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave), (Do You Get) Excited? - but it is the other tracks which really carry this classy album: Keep On Knockin' On Every Door is as compelling as they come, with Perfect Day, the album's closing track, taking your breath away as Marie reaches every note pitch perfect - no mean feat given that this song ranges across three full octaves! This is, quite simply, a masterpiece, and nothing has yet come along to beat it, whether from Roxette or any other group. If you want the early 90s in a nutshell, look no further than Roxette's Joyride.

I loved the tape so much I just had to buy the CD as well
This was the first tape I had ever brought and I loved Roxette ever since. The CD covers all types of music from the powerful 'Spendig my time' to the fast hard hitting 'Excited'. A wonderful CD catching the best of Roxette at that time. A classic CD.
