Gimme thousand years of love

Today I bought one of the greatest bands in the world's new album "X" like at 5am this morning, since we Americans were..I guess saved the best for last? Was so jealous that it was released in Europe first and we had to patiently wait two more weeks haha but its finally here! And god, was it worth the wait. "X" IS the album of the year, I already know it...what could be better than this? I am highly impressed with these new songs and it really amazes me how The 69 Eyes are able to stay so good, and so true to they're music for so long. So I recommend that you go out and BUY THIS ALBUM. I got mine both on iTunes and CD. So here is my review of this jewel of an album:
Love Runs Away: The first song off the album that brought tears to my eyes already told me what I was in for. This song is pure Scandinavian goth n roll with very emotional lyrics.
Tonight: WILL become one of your favorites!-its definitely one of mine! Its so good!!! Jyrki sings in this song, "Gimme thousand years of love" which is very symbolic to me...and really touched me because it made me think of how I view this band's immortal music.
Black: Another favorite! This song is very sexy, dark, and romantically sad at the same time.
If You Love Me The Morning After: SUCH a great song! Another fall in love Favorite! this is the kind of song that will make you cry even more, and when I went to bed I fell asleep with the song on.
Red: The great hit single!
I Love The Darkness In You: Another Favorite! You gotta love how Jyrki sings, "So fucking dirty, um.." ( which I'm wondering did he get that from Lux Interior ;) The song is really heart-touching because its about loving the darkness in someone...preferably with blue eyes, as he hints in the lyrics.
Borderline: This song is one of THE BEST SONGS ever! It reminded me of The Rolling Stones "Angie", thats how great it is...but it also has some mixture of The Doors, and Elvis( Jyrki even says "Thank You" at the end of the song just like Elvis, its so cool).
I'm Ready: great song, the more dance-able song on the album, it reminded me of they're old stuff-its super old school 69 Eyes, if you ever heard they're early work :)
I Know What You Did Last Summer: THE BEST SONG ON THE WHOLE ALBUM THIS SONG IS THE HIT SONG THAT WILL REPLACE LOST BOYS. haha...yeah...its that good. "As the fall turns to rust, October's lust" ( best lyrics ever). This song is super Halloween, very 69 Eyes, its just GREAT!
When a Love Comes To An End: great, soft song. very deep.
Rosary Blue feat Kat Von D: two words: just beautiful.
