My vote is for Joyride.
It’s about the songs, not albums!!!

When I saw the name of your subject I though you were talking about The Look and Joyride the songs.
But you mean the albums?
My vote goes to Joyride, absolutely.
Fantastic songs... Spending my time, Do you get excited, Things will never be the same again... etc.
Peace!

Hello you fools i love you, come on join the joyride......lol......this album or song should win either way, not that i don’t like the look,but Joyride is more upbeat, whereas Look Sharp has more depressing lyrics!

animalkingdom is absolutely right!
The Look has always been my favourite song!

Songs: “The Look” is as good as “Joyride” :)))
Albums: “Joyride” forever! (btw the other album is called “Look Sharp!” :))

i think if i had to choose between the songs it would be “the look” but if i have to choose between the albums, it would be “joyride”!!

I think The Look is better than Joyride as a song, but as an album Joyride is much better! JOyride makes you happy!!!

Let’s not forget HAND. HAND’s another album with as many potential hit singles as The Look and Joyride. It’s a pity that their record company doesn’t execute well.

@ bunny: but this topic is not about albums and definitely not about h.a.n.d.
btw, h.a.n.d. did have as many hit singles as the look and joyride: wish i could fly and stars! :-)

Both songs r great! They both use similar chord sequences, in the key of A. Both songs are pure 80’s rockpop!!! Oh i do miss it all here in the UK!!!

Well, I don´t need to choose between The Look and Joyride because just one week ago I mixed both versions together to a medley. I used the recordings from tourism. It sounds great: You don´t even hear that there are two songs because the sound in the live versions are absolutely similar and they are both the same kind of songs...
Since last week my band “Wipe Out” is even playing a medley of The Look and Joyride!!!! I´m the leadguitarrist in the band and I´m doing backing vocals, but I will sing the part of The Look!!!! It makes sooooo much fun!!!

The Look. it is very simple song, pretty 88-89s... and made the whole world singing na na na na na na na (...) for weeks and weeks... and years.

Oh, don’t make us choose between two great albums! It just depends what mood your in.
