I Just Wanna (Kiss song)

"I Just Wanna" is a song by the American rock band Kiss from their 1992 studio album Revenge. It was also released as the album's promotional single.

Background and writing
"I Just Wanna" is the 11th track on the Kiss 1992 studio album Revenge.

The song was written by Paul Stanley and Vinnie Vincent. The latter also co-wrote two other songs on the album.

Music video
The music video was directed by Paul Rachman, Rachman was also the director of two more videos from Revenge: "Unholy" and "Domino".

He recounted in an interview with Songfacts: "We had to do "I Just Wanna" while the band was on tour. We only had one day with them in London while they were touring, so I had to come up with an idea we could do in one day. It was a Paul Stanley song, and it was pop-y. The previous song ["Unholy"] was really, really dark — it was a dark void kind of atmosphere — so I went in the opposite direction. And that video was accomplishable to shoot in one day on a stage in London."

Composition
In the chorus Stanley repeats "I just wanna f..." a couple of times until he finally completes the phrase "I just wanna forget you".
