Wild Child (WASP cover)

Susperia's cover of 'Wild Child' by WASP is a powerful and intense exploration of desire, rebellion, and the untamed nature of love. The song's protagonist is depicted as a force of nature, riding the winds and bringing the rain, symbolizing an unstoppable and wild spirit. This imagery sets the tone for the rest of the song, where the protagonist's love is portrayed as something fierce and uncontainable.

The lyrics delve into the theme of forbidden love and the thrill of taking what is not rightfully theirs. The protagonist is determined to take the love of someone who is already in a relationship, emphasizing their wild and rebellious nature. The lines 'No, he'll never ever touch you like I do / So look in my eyes and burn alive the truth' suggest a deep confidence in their ability to provide a more intense and genuine connection than the current partner.

The repeated refrain 'I'm a wild child, come and love me I want you / My heart's in exile I need you to touch me' highlights the protagonist's yearning for a love that matches their wild spirit. The phrase 'my heart's in exile' suggests a sense of isolation and longing, further emphasizing the intensity of their desire. The song's passionate and fiery language, such as 'burning up with fire' and 'turn the flames up higher,' reinforces the idea of love as a consuming and powerful force.

Overall, Susperia's rendition of 'Wild Child' captures the raw and untamed essence of the original song, while adding their own unique intensity and energy. The song speaks to the universal themes of desire, rebellion, and the search for a love that truly ignites the soul.
