1988 single by the Cure
"Hot Hot Hot!!!" is a single by British rock band the Cure released on 8 February 1988. It is taken from their 1987 album Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me. The song reached number 45 in the UK, whereas it was more successful in Ireland where it reached number 18, and in Spain where it reached the Top 10.
History
"Hot Hot Hot!!!" was the fourth single released from the album Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me—the band`s seventh LP. In early 1988, it spent three weeks in the UK Singles Chart, peaking at number 45 on 20 February of that year.[1] In the United States, the song reached number 65 on the Billboard Hot 100, while a remix of the track by François Kevorkian charted at numbers 11 and 50 on the Dance Music/Club Play Singles and the Hot Dance Music/Maxi-Singles Sales charts, respectively.[2][3] It reached its highest chart position in Spain, peaking at number 8; the song was also a hit in Ireland, spending two weeks there and making number 18 on 18 February 1988.[4] It spent three weeks on the Dutch charts, reaching number 79 there.[5] As with many other singles, the video was directed by Tim Pope,[6] and has been described as "intentionally ridiculous".[7] Filmed in black and white, it featured the band as "dwarves" dressed in 1950s clothes.[8]
Before the song proper begins, Robert Smith can be heard singing "she may be the face I can`t forget", the first line of "She" by Charles Aznavour.
Reception
In a review of the single for NME in 1988, Steve Lamacq said that the song`s dance mix was "spuriously welcoming, but basically a tragedy of trenchfoot" and concluded, "Even I know [Smith has] better stuff hidden in that mop of his".[9] In an undated review, Stewart Mason of Allmusic described the song as the "weakest" of the singles from the album, adding that it has markedly dated and criticised both Smith`s lyrics and his vocal performance.[10]
Re-recordings and cover versions
The song appears on disc two of the live album Bestival Live 2011.[11]
