Ride on Time is the fifth studio album by Japanese singer-songwriterTatsuro Yamashita, released in September 1980.
Ride on Time is most known for its title track. It was used in the television commercial for Maxellaudio cassette starring Yamashita, and released as a single in May 1980. The song became his first charting single, peaking at number three on the Japanese Oricon chart with sales of 417,000 copies. In 2003, the song was featured on the television drama Good Luck!! starring Takuya Kimura, and entered the top 20 on the chart again.
The album was released after the title track became a hit, and gained commercial success subsequently. It topped the Japanese albums chart for a week in October 1980, selling more than 220,000 units while it was entering the chart.
After the album came out, the song 'My Sugar Babe' (ode to the band he formerly fronted) was issued as a single. It was featured as a theme song for the television drama Keishi-K starring and directed by Shintaro Katsu and aired on NTV in Autumn 1980. Yamashita composed the entire background music used on the unsuccessful TV series. At the time of reissue in 2002, an extract of them (instrumental version of 'My Sugar Babe') was additionally included as one of the bonus tracks.
