Avicii provides examples of the following tropes:

Break Up Song: "Without You".
Cover Version: "Hope There's Someone" is both a cover of a Antony and the Johnsons song and a remix of Linnea Henriksson's own cover.
Days of the Week Song: In "Waiting for Love":

Monday left me broken
Tuesday I was through with hopin'
Wednesday my empty arms were open
Thursday waiting for love, waiting for love
Thank the stars it's Friday
I'm burning like a fire gone wild on Saturday
Guess I won't be coming to church on Sunday
I'll be waiting for love
Waiting for love to come around

Deal with the Devil: The subject of "Long Road to Hell":

You think you're getting away
No escape from the deal you made
You walked right into his plan
Run as fast as you think you can
Back from wherever you came
Call the devil by any name
Oh no! Now, who you do blame?
Should have listened to what I'd said
What I'd said, what I'd said, yeah!
Let me tell you it's a hard road to hell without no soul

Intercourse with You: In "Lay Me Down":

Lay me down in darkness
Tell me what you see
Love is where the heart is
Show me I'm the one, tell me I'm the one that you need

Love Is a Drug: The subject of "Addicted to You".
Neoclassical Punk Zydeco Rockabilly: True combine EDM and Country Music.
Sampling: "Levels" samples "Something's Got a Hold on Me" by Etta James.
Shout-Out:
- In "Somewhere in Stockholm":

That's me right there on the corner
Listening to Wu in my Walkman

In "Trouble":

I keep on searching for the city of gold
And I'm gonna follow this yellow brick road

In "Without You":

I'm gonna to tear this city down without you
I'm goin' Bonnie and Clyde without you

Talking in Your Sleep: In "Talk to Myself":

And some nights I talk in my sleep
I say the words I never said when you were with me

What Could Have Been: Avīci was meant to have three parts.
