Mi trovo alle prese con la mia prima recensione… Ciò che mi spinge è una gran voglia di esternare la mia passione per la musica e soprattutto confrontarmi con chi è di certo più esperto di me… Ho letto parecchie recensioni con i vari commenti, che molte volte si tramutano in infuocate discussioni a suon di parolacce, ciò mi ha un po’ spaventata, ma devo dire che anche i più accesi dibattiti dimostrano che si fa sul serio, nel senso che qui il livello di cultura musicale è veramente altissimo… Comunque, curiosando per il sito mi sono accorta che ci sono pochi album dei Kiss e ciò mi ha colpito molto, al punto che ho deciso di recensirne uno io!!! Dopo questo preambolo è bene che sappiate che non sono una grandissima esperta, la mia conoscenza musicale non è sicuramente ampia, non conosco a memoria nomi di tutti gli artisti nè degli strumenti o delle tecniche, ma di certo ciò che mi guida è la musica in sé… quello che provo dentro. Forse, molte volte chi esagera nell’ imparare nozioni o ad ostentare una cultura pedantesca, si allontana un po’ da ciò che inizialmente l’ha condotto nel mondo della musica, e cioè quel piacere, quel gusto, quella sensazione che ti trasporta e ti spinge lontano, in un altro mondo, ti fa fantasticare su un posto migliore, più sereno, più giusto… E così mi sento io, in particolare con i Kiss, che ho conosciuto da poco, grazie al mio ex-ragazzo.
Quando li sento non penso veramente a niente, non penso più ai problemi che mi assillano, né a quanto questo mondo è ingiusto e schifoso, mi viene solo voglia di cantare a squarciagola e di seguire il ritmo delle loro canzoni… Sono dei grandi e “Hotter Than Hell” è a mio parere veramente ben riuscito!!! A parte “Goin’ Blind” , la ballatona della situazione, sono tutte fantastiche, come “Let Me Go, Rock ‘ N Roll” , oppure come “Got To Choose” ; ma come queste due succitate, il giudizio vele per tutte!!! Quello che apprezzo tanto è il loro stile musicale, puro rock ‘n roll, pulito, quasi rudimentale, niente virtuosismi, niente cazzate, niente esagerazioni (escluso il loro look, eh eh), appunto puro rock n’ roll, voglia di divertirsi, di prendere le cose così con semplicità e tanto amore per la musica, il linguaggio universale che avvicina tutti…
Bene, ho terminato, rileggendola mi sono accorta che è una non-recensione, perché ho parlato di tutto meno che dell’album, ma purtroppo notizie tecniche non ve le posso dare (per quelle spero mi aiuterete voi)… Diciamo che baso la bellezza di un album su dati empirici più che tecnici, sia giusto, sia sbagliato, non lo so… Mi raccomando, non siate troppo crudeli con i commenti, abbiate pietà, sono appena alla prima recensione!!!

Baby, you know I heard the neighbours say
Baby, you might be leavin' me today
Oh yeah, mmm, someone's come along and shared your time
Don't care, no I don't, no
But you can't be his and still be mine, so
Ooh, got to choose who's your baby
Ooh, got to choose
Sometimes, oh sometimes, I know you need a change of pace
Oh yeah, but I ain't gonna run no race
Baby, you've got to tell me yes or no
Alright, alright, come on and tell me
Tell me if you're gonna go, come on
Ooh, got to choose who's your baby

She'll always be there trying to grab a hold
She thought she knew me, but she didn't know
That I was sad and wanted her to go
Parasite lady
Parasite eyes

No need to cry

And I know how it's to be, yeah
Little lady, can't you see
You're so young and so much different than I

04 Hotter Than Hell (03:30)
Come on
She looked good
She looked hotter than hell
All dressed in satins and lace
I looked at her and it was just too clear
I had to get on the case
I said "Lady, oh lady, can I take you home
There's just so much we could do
I'll take you all around the whole wide world
Before the evening is through"
Hot, hot, hotter than hell
You know she's gonna leave you well done
Hot, hot, hotter than hell
Burn you like the midday sun
I asked her why she couldn't make up her mind
She said "You don't understand
I'd love to go, but there's something you should know"
She showed me her wedding band
Hot, hot, hotter than hell
You know she's gonna leave you well done
Hot, hot, hotter than hell
She'll burn you like the midday sun
Hot, hot, hotter than hell
You know she's gonna leave you well done
Hot, hot, hotter than hell
She'll burn you like the midday sun

And I'm tryin' baby, tryin' not to stare
Ooh, 'cause everybody else is here

09 Comin' Home (02:38)
It's been a month or two since I was sleepin' with you
I'm comin' home again
I've been to east and west, but baby I like best
The road that leads to you
Oh girl, it seems the whole wide world seems to say
Hotels that all look the same
Just seem to drive me insane
But I can't get away
Until I receive a call that tells me that will be all
And then I hop a plane
It's true, I'm not sure if you knew
I'm comin' home to you
Oh girl, it seems the whole wide world seems to say
Hotels that all look the same
Just seem to drive me insane
But I can't get away
Until I receive a call that tells me that will be all
And then I hop a plane
It's true, I'm not sure if you knew
I'm comin' home to you
I'm comin' home to you
I'm comin' home to you
I'm comin' home, baby
10 Strange Ways (03:18)
Well, it's a strange way
The way you look at me
And it's a hard time
Time you been givin' me
Come on and open up
Open up to me
So you can realize
That I could set you free
Strange ways, twisted days
Strange ways, twisted days
Well, it's a strange place
That you've been livin' in
And it's a strange line
You've been deliverin'
I think I like it
But I'm not really sure
Don't wanna to fight it
Just wanna feel some more
Strange ways, twisted days
Strange ways, twisted days
Strange ways, twisted days
Strange ways, twisted days
