Which indeed it did. On May 1, the title track zoomed all the way up to #1 position on the Billboard Hot 100 chart – setting a record no Scandinavian group or artist has yet been able to break, helping to make “Joyride” a 11+ million seller.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe “Joyride” box set also offers a chance to hear two previously unreleased demos of songs originally released by Per’s former group Gyllene Tider, who in 1984 tried to break the international market with the album “Heartland Café”.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- In the autumn of 1989 I was going through all kinds of possible material for the new Roxette album. ”Run Run Run” and ”Another Place, Another Time” from the ”Heartland Café” album felt like quite strong contenders, so we did new and more ”Roxified” demo versions of them. ”Run Run Run” was a favourite of mine – I thought it had potential to go a long way, Per Gessle remembers.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe two songs never made it to a studio recording, however. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- Even though we were travelling the world constantly doing promotion for “Look Sharp!” as well as “It Must Have Been Love”, I managed to find time to write lots of new songs. Most of them were customized for Marie to sing, and in the end we preferred those, Per says. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOther unearthed demoes from 1990 are ”Small Talk”, ”Church Of Your Heart”, ”Physical Fascination”, ”Things Will Never Be The Same”, ”I Remember You” and not least the future single B-side ”The Sweet Hello, The Sad Goodbye” – one of the strongest songs that never made it to the album. It would however become a much loved track by Roxette fans – the “Roxers” – and recorded by many artists, among them American singer Laura Branigan. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e”Sweet Thing” is another one of the many songs written and demoed for the new album, giving the listener a more complete insight in the making of this classic pop album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease date: 26th November, 2021\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP #1 \u003cbr\u003eA\u003cbr\u003e1 Joyride \u003cbr\u003e2 Hotblooded \u003cbr\u003e3 Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave) \u003cbr\u003e4 Knockin’ On Every Door \u003cbr\u003e5 Spending My Time \u003cbr\u003e6 Watercolours In The Rain \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB\u003cbr\u003e1 The Big L. \u003cbr\u003e2 (Do You Get) Excited? \u003cbr\u003e3 Small Talk \u003cbr\u003e4 Physical Fascination \u003cbr\u003e5 Things Will Never Be The Same \u003cbr\u003e6 Perfect Day \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLP #2 \u003cbr\u003eA\u003cbr\u003e1 Soul Deep \u003cbr\u003e2 I Remember You \u003cbr\u003e3 Church Of Your Heart \u003cbr\u003e4 The Sweet Hello, The Sad Goodbye \u003cbr\u003e5 Fading Like A Flower (US single version, Humberto Gatica mix)* \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB\u003cbr\u003e1 Joyride (Us single version, Brain Malouf mix) \u003cbr\u003e2 Soul deep (Tom Lord-Alge mix) \u003cbr\u003e3 Church Of Your Heart (US adult contemporary mix)* \u003cbr\u003e4 Hotblooded (Live Sydney Dec 1991) \u003cbr\u003e5 Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave) (Live Sydney Dec 1991) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLP #3 \u003cbr\u003eA\u003cbr\u003e1 Joyride (T\u0026amp;A Demo – May 23, 1990) \u003cbr\u003e2 Hotblooded (T\u0026amp;A Demo – Jan 23, 1990)* \u003cbr\u003e3 Fading like a flower (T\u0026amp;A Demo – Aug 31, 1990) \u003cbr\u003e4 Knockin’ on every door (T\u0026amp;A Demo – Aug 15, 1989) \u003cbr\u003e5 Spending my time (T\u0026amp;A Demo – May 24, 1990) \u003cbr\u003e6 I remember you (T\u0026amp;A Demo – Apr 1, 1990) \u003cbr\u003e7 Watercolours in the rain (T\u0026amp;A Demo – Jan 24, 1990) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB\u003cbr\u003e1The Big L.
