I love how Paul talks about the music from an emotional impact and fan connection standpoint and Gene, predictably, loves the ticket sales and packed stadiums 😂 Paul's hitting you in the heart and Gene's hitting you in the wallet.
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 NO it hasn't. I've seen many an interview where Paul goes on and on, while Gene politely sits there listening and nodding in agreement with Paul.
If it was the O.G four, i would agree. Even though Eric(the midget) and Tommy have been in those positions for a loooong time, you'll always have your Kiss fans shitting on them lol. Ace!!
During that late 70’s era a lot of rock bands did rock-disco songs: Rod Stewart “‘Da Ya Think I’m Sexy?” (1979), Queen “Another One Bites the Dust” (1979), The Rolling Stones “Miss You (1978), and even Pink Floyd’s “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2” (1979).
“I Was Made For Loving You” is such a beautiful song 🥹💗. I think it’s badass that that they weren’t afraid then and definitely not now, to show a different side to them. That’s what makes them so awesome 🤟🏽
@@JoyofBooking Perhaps because it's the main one that is only ever played on radio stations around the world. If they bothered to play other songs by KISS, those other songs would attract a lot more YT views too.
Back when I was in primary school, aged about 9 or 10, I used to have swimming lessons in the morning and every time we were having lessons, there was another instructor directly across from us doing water aerobics with a class full of elderly women. It just so happened that this song would always be blaring through the cassette player that they were using. So, every time I hear "I Was Made For Loving You" by Kiss, that's where my mind always goes. LMAO! I wonder what Gene & Paul would have to say about that! LOL!
@@vcvortex6356 May not be "amazing" to you. But to millions of other people around the world, it means so many different positive things. And that's why that song is still being talked about and played on radio stations all over the world almost 45 years later. That is certainly amazing, indeed, whether you care to acknowledge it or not.
@@metalslayer777 What Desmond Child did? He brought the popular sound, disco or whatever in Paul's song. And when Desmond left, the producer Vini Poncia (re)arranged the chorus.
I saw them in 1990 in the Bay Area when there were young, roving packs of rabid thrash metal fans looking for fans of glam rock to beat up. But when we went to see KISS, all of us were headbanging to that song and having a ball. All enmity with fans of Poison temporarily suspended….
Well, in the beginning hard rock fans hated that song, but Kiss became a legendary band and was able to get away with playing Disco music or whatever they wanted.
That whole damn dynasty album had THE FUCKIN SOUND!! To me it set ALL FUTURE STANDARDS FOR DIGITAL RECORDING. whoever engineered this album made it sound so up clean n pure.
Well said, my friend. Exactly on. Easily in my top 3 KISS records. ... Especially the Ace songs..."Hard Times", so fkn good! And Peters "Dirty Living", those are some true Kiss Klassics in my book!
Five billion KISS FANS CAN'T BE WRONG! We are nothing but Biblical Locusts. WE ARE NOT WORTHY!🤣 Sometimes, a song is so powerful and meaningful, able to bring back memories, that the fans just go bananas. 🍌 So... let's DO DO DO it up. KISS RULES (My PEECHEE says so). Let's give it up for THE HOTTEST BAND IN THE WORLD....KISS. KISS ARMY KNIGHT OVER AND OUT 🛡️
KISS in the 70's was so legit and legendary. What the music might have lacked was made up with the great show!! Now it's just an empty shell of it's former self and a laughing stock. It's the original four I want to see and when Peter and Ace left it was over forever. Check out their appearance on Midnight Special in the mid 70's...no comparison to any other lineup
And? So? At least he acknowledges his fans and he doesn't deny his love of money. Why else do so many other bands still keep playing after so many decades? They all love money too, it keeps them in the lifestyles they've become accustomed to.
*Are you kidding Gene, My favorite part of that song is the Doo, doo. doo. da, doo. doo. da. doo. doo, you wanted the hottest songwriter in the band You got the hottest writer in the world, Paul Stanley well and Desmond Child and Poncia too !! Although I love the song A world without hero's!!! written by Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Lou Reed and Bob Ezrin*
Gene can complain but that song has one of the catchiest bass lines
That he didn’t play lol
...and that cathy bassline were performed by Paul Stanley...
You want Bass? Red Hot Chili Peppers & Band-Maid.
@@joewas2225 nah thanks, i'll stick with the God of Thunder and Rock'n'Roll
Indeed
"What's the first line?"
"Tonight"
"Oooohhhh, that's good"
😂😂
What’s my line?
“Do do do dodo do do dooo dooo.”
I’m outta here.
Imagine Gene singing “do do do” with his low voice. With Paul joining in, it could have been a dowop song.
“oKAy that rocks ;)” kills me
I love how Paul talks about the music from an emotional impact and fan connection standpoint and Gene, predictably, loves the ticket sales and packed stadiums 😂 Paul's hitting you in the heart and Gene's hitting you in the wallet.
I think he’s eased up a bit. He seems to be having more fun the last few years haha.
Gene would put his grandma's underwear in the albums if he knew it would sell more records :D
That combo is how Kiss has survived for 75 years and will be around for 100 more
Gene's greedy but he's honest about it, and actually tries to sell GOOD products.
so he is greedy but works for it.
*Well money talks as they say! and mine usually says...and I quote ''bye ''bye'' ! :)P*
I love how Howard asks Paul a question and Gene wants to tell a story.
that has always been the case

At least Gene isn’t a shill for Russia
Dont get me wrong, i love gene, just not as much as he loves himself thats all
That is a truly inspired insight - LMAO!
Just goes to show that a catchy song is a catchy song, regardless of genre.
A song is a song is a song
My favourite Kiss song for personal reasons. An ex introduced me to Kiss with this one. It became “ our song”, along with Sure Know Something.
Charisma for breakup.
I'm not a kiss fan at all but it's pretty cool to see them all together still doing there thing
If it was the O.G four, i would agree. Even though Eric(the midget) and Tommy have been in those positions for a loooong time, you'll always have your Kiss fans shitting on them lol. Ace!!
They aren't "all together" it's Gene and Paul and 2 hired hands.
@@RyanConnell5150 for 20+ years. 2 reliable musicians.

Um… excuse you?
All together? The last time Ace and Peter were in the band was almost 25 years ago… haha
"I Was Made For Loving You" by KISS is a great combination of Rock & Disco!
Yes, you had to be there at that time.

@@foodog777, when those artists recorded Disco songs, some of their fans called them "sell-outs!"
Paul wrote, he doesn't want to apologize for this song 👍

We metalheads can bash and ramble our heads at each other but when Kiss comes on? It’s a fuckin’ PARTY!

Saw em in Atlanta a couple years back. Still got the magic!
Perfectly goes to show gene cared about the image and Paul cared about the music
I loved this song as a kid. I was such a KISS fan as a little kid and I just saw them on their last tour. There’s just something about them.
Why am I cracking up when they go
“Dew dew dew”
i was legit laughing as well
honestly, it's a great song.... one of their best.

Amazing how when you’re wealthy and can afford the best foods and personal trainers that can happen😊
Compared to pop music of Today…do do do do do etc. Makes a lot of sense…Go Howard!!!
People on the vids hating for wearing costumes. They need to hear all interview. And research. They explain it. It's something u will remember
Paul’s expression says it all.
It's one of my absolute favorite songs from Kiss, but I find it absolutely hilarious listening to how Gene talks about it 😂😂😂

Howard asks Paul a question, Gene answers. Sums it up.
Paul and Gene have been through decades together so I'm sure this doesn't come as a surprise to Paul
He at least had the instinct to know that it's an incredible song.
Oh Please!!! 🤣

No mention of the song Shandi. Even Paul can't defend that one.
And the elder
However, that song made me Kiss fan
I still think it's one of the best songs they did. I respect Gene's opinion though not every song is for everybody.
I was a huge KISS fan...then I turned 10.
Then you reached the age you are now and decided to get on YT and share jokes suitable for 10 yr olds.
Stop hating gene lol.
Gene complaining all the way to the bank. If that's all I had to do to make millions of dollars, I would NOT be complaining.
I love it!
i love KISS is my favorite rockstar music
Paul made Kiss as big as it was. He is the Star Cild after all.

Not just KISS.
Heck, I paid the same price to see KISS last year, that I paid to see the Foo Fighters and Eminem about 12 yrs ago.

Sorry to say, but IWMFLY is one of their strongest songs. So it was disco; disco had great songs, too.

Love ya Howard, you’re the greatest interviewer period. Get back in the studio soon. It’s nice to see everyone in the same room.
he is a Marxist and I hope he leaves this world sooner than later...degenerate.

Lol i love this song 😂 🤘 🕺🏼
Maybe I'm just not that hard core rock because I love that song. LOL.
In Australia at least, they introduced it as the "do dodo dodo" song...!🤣
It's my favorite Kiss song.
Metalheads will ALWAYS bow down to Kiss
Those two really are each other's Ying and Yang
its an awesome song
awe Gene had a tender moment and referred to his fans (his source of wealth) as biblical locusts....

So?
At least he acknowledges his fans and he doesn't deny his love of money.
Why else do so many other bands still keep playing after so many decades? They all love money too, it keeps them in the lifestyles they've become accustomed to.
