"Church of Your Heart" is the fifth and final single taken from Swedish pop duo Roxette's third studio album, Joyride (1991). Written by Per Gessle, the song was a top-20 hit in Canada, where it peaked at number 11, and charted throughout Europe, entering the top 40 in several countries. "I Call Your Name" – originally released as a single from their 1986 debut album Pearls of Passion – appeared as the B-side. On UK editions of the single, the song was backed by an exclusive megamix consisting of a medley of "It Must Have Been Love", "Listen to Your Heart", "The Look", "Joyride" and "Fading Like a Flower (Every Time You Leave)".

Critical reception

AllMusic editor Bryan Buss described the song as "folky" in his review of Joyride.[1] Jim Farber from Entertainment Weekly wrote that Roxette adds some "Dylanesque harmonica" into "Church of Your Heart".[2] Swedish newspaper Expressen said that the song "is the closest we come to Gyllene Tider".[3] Gavin Report commented, "A rare lead vocal from Per gives the Roxette sound a different texture but the result is the same—a hit."[4] I Dag stated that it "is Gessle from his best side. This could be Gyllene Tider 1991."[5]

Music video

The music video for "Church of Your Heart" was filmed at a church in Sydney, Australia. It was directed by Wayne Isham, who also directed the video for previous single "Spending My Time", as well as one for another song from Joyride—"(Do You Get) Excited?", which was due to be released as the album's sixth single. Its planned single release was later cancelled, however.[6]
