36!! I'm addicted to tropes:
37* CommonTime: "Wake Me Up" and "Hey Brother" use this time signature.
38* EpicRocking:
39** "Dear Boy" is almost 8 minutes long (at 7:59), making it one of his longest tracks that isn't a remix.
40** The same goes for the last two additional tracks in the album's Bonus Edition, "Canyons" (7:29) and "EDOM" (8:15).
41* FaceOnTheCover: The cover is a silhouette of Bergling with the album's title written in front of it.
42* OdeToYouth: "Wake Me Up!": "''...Wish that I could stay forever this young, not afraid to close my eyes.''"
43* OutlawCouple: A lesbian couple in the music video for "Addicted To You" are partners in crime. They even make out while they're in the middle of robbing a bank.
44* SpecialGuest: All the songs besides "Heart Upon My Sleeve" (which is an instrumental) have other people singing them, such as Aloe Blacc ("Wake Me Up") and Dan Tyminski ("Hey Brother").
45* TakingYouWithMe: In the music video for "Addicted To You", after the cops take down one of the bank robbers, the other one uses her explosive device to exact revenge on the cops.
46* ThickerThanWater: The phrase gets paraphrased in "Hey Brother".
47-->Hey sister, know the water's sweet but blood is thicker.
48----
49-->''Oh, dear boy, I wanna follow you\
50You're a wild boy, I am a wild girl too\
51Oh, dear boy, it's so hollow without you\
52In a world with everything, but it won't do\
53Oh, dear boy, I wanna follow you\
54You're a wild boy, I am a wild girl too\
55Oh, dear boy, so shallow in the blue\
56It's a time for everything and I call you''
