If Roxette would have released (Do You Get) Excited? as their 6th single from Joyride.... what would the single cover in your mind, look like??
Any ideas or suggestions?
This is for the creativity amongst you.....

Don’t you think it would be fun designing our own cover for the single?
And probably they would’ve use some caps from the video

I also thought a cap from the video - maybe that part where Marie lies on the sand with that tight white outfit with the title of the song on her chest.... or that pic from the video where Marie sits on the sand with that black outfit... Yes, with the “joyride” font.... I can make a cover, but I don’t know how to use photoshop... can make a cover in Microsoft Word... but how do I upload?
I can mail it to the ones interested....
Let’s all jump in and design our own single cover.... JUST for the fun of it.... Use your imagination.... lol

I was kinda bored this evening so i sunk my teeth into this one.. The result: http://i30.tinypic.com/2mcd6dg.jpg
Thaughts?
By the way, i used images from youtube, so the quality isn´t that great. Ergo the small size of the cover.

Nice, i would’ve chosen a new bside instead of a mix but that’s just imagination :)
On the other hand was wandering... Have they ever used any caps from a video to make a cover for a single? I honestly don’t remember but think not.

I think the Almost Unreal cover contains promo shots from the “Fingertips ’93” video as well.

To “Renegade” - WOW!!! WOW!!! - that cover you made is absolutely to die for!!! Really great. Wish I knew how to merge images into each other. I have NO idea how Photoshop works...lol
Yes, Roxette used screencaps on singles like Almost Unreal, Soul Deep and the cover of Dance Passion.... I can’t remember any other covers....lol

if I remember right, Per said that DYGE was about to be the 5th single but it was replaced by COYH (I think I read it somewhere in The Look For Roxette)
CoyRoy said on February 26, 2008 17:24:
You are right, Arnie, but I still think COYH would have been good enough to become the 6th single from Joyride anyways... LOL. In my personal opinion, I think Things Will Never Be The Same and even Small Talk would have been better choices for singles from Joyride instead of Church....
But this is getting off-topic now... lol

I really like that cover. It looks better than any single cover from Joyride era. But nothing beats the covers from HAND era, these were simply the best.

I also love the cover that renegade posted. And when I think of (Do You Get) Excited? single cover, I immediately think of the video :) And it would have been great if it was released as a single in reality. It is such a great song.

My guess is it would have been a cap from the video of Marie in the desert with the standard Roxette Joyride typography(?)
