Bryan Adams has always advocated for more rock in the world, and this time he does so with the help of—would you believe it—John Cleese! The famous member of Monty Python lent his voice to the introduction of Kick Ass, one of 12 songs that feature in the Canadian’s fifteenth album. Parodying a preacher’s sermon, the comedian talks of an angel, dressed in boots and blue jeans, who was sent to earth to spread the good word of rock’n’roll. Humour and guitars go hand in hand on this record, perfectly capturing the tone of the album. The title track, So Happy It Hurts, is a tribute to spontaneity, whilst Never Gonna Rain conveys an almost divine sense of optimism. This release goes to show that Bryan Adams hasn’t strayed far from his status as the prince of happiness. The Run to You singer is still just as captivating too; Just Like Me, Just Like You and I’ve Been Looking For You pay testament to that. The track On the Road sees the 60-something reminisce about his lengthy career, recounting his 45 years of non-stop world tours. The word “Up” appears many times on the album, and this can only mean one thing: the pandemic hasn’t dampened Bryan Adams’ lust for life, and he’s keen to share his positivity with his listeners. ©Nicolas Magenham/Qobuz
