Animalize

Animalize is the twelfth studio album by American hard rock band Kiss. It was released in 1984 on Mercury Records.

Background

At the time of the record's issuance, Gene Simmons was pursuing a career in acting. Paul Stanley was thus primarily in charge of the album's production and direction.

Animalize marked the only appearance by lead guitarist Mark St. John, who replaced Vinnie Vincent in April 1984. St. John stated that when recording the record, he had utilized his Rockman gear, and that heavy equalization was used to take the "Boston" sound out of the recording.

St. John was forced to leave Kiss during the subsequent tour after being diagnosed with Reiter's Syndrome. By November 1984, he was out of the band, the third lead guitarist to exit the group in two years. When asked what 'Animalize' meant, Stanley said that people were starting to become more like computers and that "making music by pressing buttons" was no fun.

Reception

In a continuation of Kiss' commercial resurgence begun with Lick It Up, Animalize was certified platinum by the RIAA. It was the biggest-selling Kiss album since 1979's Dynasty. The album has apparently sold two million units, but has not been recertified for that amount.

Animalize

by: Kiss

Early morning, as she wakes from her sleep
is the day that she'll keep
Ties her hair up and her blouse buttoned tight
Gets her work done as she waits for the night
All the people, tell me what would they say
If they knew her, how she hides it away
Locked inside, there's the start of a flame
And the feelings that she never will tame
Ooh, as she's walking around like a mystery
Ooh, there's a woman that nobody sees livin' inside
Thrills in the night, far from the light
Passion taking over
Prices she pays, all through the days
No one really knows her
In the evening when she takes to the street
She goes hunting with a body in heat
And desires she's kept hidden inside
Make her tingle and she knows why she lies
Ooh, as she's walking around like a mystery
Ooh, there's a woman that nobody sees living inside
Thrills in the night, far from the light
Passion taking over
Prices she pays, all through the days
No one really knows her
Thrills in the night, far from the light
Passion taking over
Prices she pays, all through the days
No one really knows her
Ooh, yeah
See the stranger that she's pushing away
As she dresses for the start of a day
And desires she's kept hidden inside
Make her tingle, yeah she knows why she lies
Thrills in the night, far from the light
Passion taking over
Prices she pays, all through the days
No one really knows her
[(Yeah)] Thrills in the night, [(yeah)] far from the light
[(Oh)] Passion taking over
Prices she pays, all through the days
No one really knows her
Thrills in the night, far from the light
Passion taking over
Prices she pays, all through the days
No one really knows her
Thrills in the night
