@@tomkat_Kansas probably but Paul hated his times with ace on the farewell tour. Ace was always drunk. Wasted, behaving like a diva. Unable to learn any new songs.
I still think this is the only proper version of Beth ever recorded and done justice by the band. The time passes by and I'm more and more convinced of this view.
It's amazing what they did with '2000 man' and 'Beth' in these Unplugged renditions. Makes you wonder what would've come out from the original 4 with such a chemistry but... oh well, there goes 27 years past this. Much like Van Halen at almost the same time in the 90's
Peter May be better than Eric Singer and Eric Carr, but Eric Carr was the best drummer of all and Peter was the worst. I’ve been a kiss fan since day one and I know everything about them. That’s just my opinion and I thought I’d stated. If y’all have a different one plz don’t start beef with me. I just am trying to share my thoughts :).
Actually... I prefer Eric Carr over Peter Criss. Bruce Kulick over Ace. But I'm biased, that was their lineup when I started to listen to them. So probably biased from here to eternity😅
Peter Criss and his beautiful voice. One of the best Beth renditions, probably in their entire history. We need to see them one last time with Peter and Ace. The tour to end all tours. I love KISS.
When Peter Criss sings "Cause Me And The Boys Will Be Playing All Night" and the crowd erupts, you can literally see dollar signs pop up on Gene's eyes as he realizes the Reunion tour will be a hit!
I am impressed with the voice of peter. Tears…😢I'm Japanese, I don't really understand the meaning of English, but I was moved.I love original members❤
I’ll try to explain it easy. The song is about a rockstar who’s wife calls him while he’s at a concert. It’s talking about the broken relationship because his job takes him away from her. He keeps telling her he’ll be home soon, but at the end he tells her he isn’t coming home that night. It’s a very sad and emotional song
Oh man 🤣🤣🤣 I cry so much lission to this he's so happy :( it sucks to even hear this somtimes B's he's old dude reliving the past and it's sad bc it's so real....
@@tommccallan8802 that was my take on it as well. almost as if the extra cheers confirmed what the fans had wanted all along at that point. a reunion of the original lineup.
@@gophersnorman202 the smile is genuine, as if he realizes that the fans are happiest with the original group, and that the thing he built is the strongest, most beloved, and the most historically significant with this quartet and this quartet only
I have been a long time fan of kiss. But this song will always be my favorite but ace my god I love your acoustic guitar on this it makes this song so much better
My second daughter was named after the song Beth and she passed away three years ago I still love her very much and this is her so I hope you enjoyed as much as I do
Paul might rip Peter justified or not, but you can’t deny Beth. It shot KISS to superstardom. This was a great rendition. I saw KISS three times. Just the original group.
This performance is incredible! I cry every time. My heart still hurts for Peter to this day. You can tell he is right where he wanted to be all this time and I wish he could have been. Much love to you Paul!
Thanks to Paul for putting this up i do like Peters Drumming I Was Made for Loving You it gets played alot but they got so many Songs in their history along with crazy Kiss merchandise is insane but a classy cool Rock Band can do it and to marvel over it
@@kevinbadger8030 Their biggest hit was written by Peter and all my favorite Kiss songs were written by Ace or Peter, so I disagree with you. They did not get as many songs because Gene and Paul were insecure control freaks. Paul was so jealous of Peters' voice and Ace's guitar playing and knew they were the most popular members that he pushed his goofy songs out there and always I was not too fond of his fruity songs the most.
@@erics9754 No. ace was just lazy and Peter couldn’t write. It was obvious with Peter because he barely got credit for any songs and what songs he did get, he had a co-writer. Plus, listen to the original version of Beth. It’s obvious that Ezrin wrote most of the song we all know and love. Paul and Gene weren’t control freaks in songwriting. They wanted the other two to contribute, but most of the time, they either didn’t contribute or what they contributed wasn’t very good. It’s no accident that Peter’s career outside of Kiss was a total flop. Ace was moderately successful, but boy it’s easy to see why he wasn’t much bigger beyond that.
LISTENING TO THIS TODAY, BRINGS A TEAR TO MY EYE, LAMENTING DAYS GONE BY, WHEN THE WORLD WAS RIGHT, LISTENING TO KISS ALL NIGHT... NOTHING LAST'S FOREVER, SURE KISS WILL, PAUL, GENE, PETER, AND ACE, WILL CONTINUE TO GIVE US A THRILL. MISSING YOU GUY'S SO MUCH, THE SONGS, THE MUSIC, THE LAUGHTER, AND JOY, THE DAYS OF MY YOUTH LISTENING TO YOU BOYS. WISHING U ALL THE BEST, WITH A HUG, AND A KISS! : ) xo
I love how Peter sings I listened to that song when I was a little girl and I still melt every time I hear it .. God Bless You as well Peter ❤️..thank you for bringing out that beautiful voice and your lovely personality
Beth I hear you calling But I can't come home right now Cause me and the boys are playing But we just can't find the sound Just a few more hours And I'll be right home to you I think I hear them calling Oh Beth what can I do Beth what can I do You say you feel so empty That our house just ain't our home I'm always somewhere else And you're always there alone Just a few more hours And I'll be right home to you I think I hear them calling Oh Beth what can I do Beth what can I do Beth I know you're lonely And I hope you'll be alright 'Cause me and the boys will be playing all night
I appreciate the goof who screamed "THIS IS KISS" in such a vindictive manner after Paul said "this is the sensitive stuff." Like he was as hyped to hear Beth as he was listening to Strutter for the first time
Ace will always be one of the best because even though he couldn’t read music and had no formal training it, he could just “feel it”. That’s what made him great.
I really love this soo much it still makes me cry I remember when my big brother sang it I really do miss you so much brother Chris it's still hard that you're gone I really feel soo lost without you I know that Iwill see you again in heaven rip
This version just became my favorite!! Authentic talent, love, and musicality from their hearts and God given magic! Thanks so much Kiss...Ace,Gene, Paul and Peter.....almost biblical🙂
When they all get along, they r a version of the greatest band. If there were no egos or booze problems, the magic would have bled onto every album. I saw the OGs live, in make up.
I've seen KISS 18 times in my life and wish I was there for this. Best version of the song ever 🤘🤘 so thankful I got to live out my childhood dream of seeing the original 4 when the reunion tour came around. Peter and Ace have always been my favorite 🤘🤘
The fact that these guys ALWAYS honor and recognize and mention all of the AMAZING dudes that have been part of Kiss over the decades is a huge sign of true class in these gentlemen!!! Kiss is forever!!!

There's no denying the powerful chemistry of the original four KISS members.
great chemistry and everyone has something special to contribute to the band. Too bad they can´t stand each other :D
Musical talent was never out of Ace's problem. I saw him play in October, he still has it.
Well Paul Stanley would disagree with you ^^ in his autobiography : he speaks poorly about Peter and ace. How nightmarish was the reunion tour
No, him and Gene Ace was born with natural talents. He was just a f up in many other ways
@@tomkat_Kansas probably but Paul hated his times with ace on the farewell tour. Ace was always drunk. Wasted, behaving like a diva. Unable to learn any new songs.
You can tell Peter loved this.
Yes. I think they all loved it. I think this is the best video of "Beth"
Everyone loved it except for Paul.
Peter was so damn happy!!
@@afterburner2869 it was their only #1 hit, so he should love it.
@@suewalsh1883 actually Beth only reached #7.
There should be more comments about how perfect that solo was from Ace. Wow.
Ace ripped that solo. He was and will always be massively underrated. Try solo'ing on an acoustic. It's not easy at all.
Look closely and you can see the rest of the guys smiling at it
That’s always been my favourite part of this video. Just perfect
Indeed, it was!!!!
I was just thinking about how awesome it sounded! Divine!!!
It's Peter's voice that makes this a killer song.
I still think this is the only proper version of Beth ever recorded and done justice by the band. The time passes by and I'm more and more convinced of this view.
AMEN. They nailed it...
If only they got along....
I think I agree
Yeah ..I do love this version way more than the original
It's amazing what they did with '2000 man' and 'Beth' in these Unplugged renditions.
Makes you wonder what would've come out from the original 4 with such a chemistry but... oh well, there goes 27 years past this.
Much like Van Halen at almost the same time in the 90's
There is only one Catman and that's Peter Criss.
And only one SPACE ACE FREHLEY
Amen
Couldn’t agree more!!!
Miauuuuuuuuuu !!! Miauuuuuuuuuuu !!! Miauuuuuuuuuuuuuu !!! Salud y Vida Pa'lante !!! Cheers and Life On !!!

His last time on stage.
"THIS IS KISS"
-Some guy in the audience
👍
The original KISS!
YESSS
EPIC!!!!
He's right you know?
@JBags72 And what do you think is the one with Vinnie (Ankh) and Eric Caravello (Fox)?
This is historic. A core piece in KISS's history, not just this song, but MTV Unplugged. KISS is best with Ace Paul Peter Gene, period.
Historic is the perfect word to describe it.
@@VioletJoy Not Gean but as he can be replaced any time not to mention he's a peace of s

Look at Gene's expressions....he knows the chemistry between thisec4 are unmatched.

The original lineup slays everything
Because it contain raw emotion

0:58 How he sings "Find" always gives me chills. His voice is SO GOOOD
Ace's solo! 💕
Epic
Brilliant...as usual with Kiss
Both legends!!! Peter Criss and Ace shined like a mother fucker as always!!!
Beautiful as always..Peter and Ace will forever be in KISS until the end of time..
Who played the piano in Beth original record was Ace ?
@@jorgedelacadena4963 bob ezrin (producer of the album destroyer),i hope that helped.
agreed the band has never been the same without them......
I love the way Ace plays his acoustic guitar on this one
An amazing acoustic solo, ace is the best
Ace can play
He definitely was the best and made their songs stand out.
drunkly?
@@IAmKillEveryone Wtf are you talking about j@ck@$$?

My heart goes out to you on the passing of your daughter Beth..the perfect memorial song for your daughter.. 😩😩😩😩.
Thank you
I'm sorry. Fuck, that sounds stupid. Three kids of my own. Please stay safe.
Peter had the best voice of all the band members by far. Shame he didn't get more songs.
I wonder if a guitar version like this would've hit as big as the original when it came out. This sounds so good!
So cool that Paul put this up. The ending where Peter and Gene were hugging and Gene was giving him an attaboy was very touching.
Beautiful song!
Paul might rip Peter justified or not, but you can’t deny Beth. It shot KISS to superstardom. This was a great rendition. I saw KISS three times. Just the original group.
Amen Brother!!
How ironic that BETH is Kiss highest ranking song ever
One moment in time this Kiss concert will last forever and never be forgotten.
You can tell that Peter was really happy and so full of hope and optimism at this point in his life
love how ace is so nice to immediatelly have to say peter criss, and ofc paul stanley, copies to feel like the good guy too
This performance is incredible! I cry every time. My heart still hurts for Peter to this day. You can tell he is right where he wanted to be all this time and I wish he could have been. Much love to you Paul!
Thanks to Paul for putting this up i do like Peters Drumming I Was Made for Loving You it gets played alot but they got so many Songs in their history along with crazy Kiss merchandise is insane but a classy cool Rock Band can do it and to marvel over it

My Favorite KISS Song!
That was precious, what a dear man.
Peter is legend for me... He have perfect voice...
Def one of the top 10 moments in all 4 of their careers
Another note in the book of history. Peter sounds amazing!
Beth I hear you calling
But I can't come home right now
Cause me and the boys are playing
But we just can't find the sound
Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them calling
Oh Beth what can I do
Beth what can I do
You say you feel so empty
That our house just ain't our home
I'm always somewhere else
And you're always there alone
Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them calling
Oh Beth what can I do
Beth what can I do
Beth I know you're lonely
And I hope you'll be alright
'Cause me and the boys will be playing all night
I can appreciate this but if anyone needs the lyrics to this iconic song something is wrong.
Gee thanks! Nobody knew the lyrics until you put them up. Thanks for clarifying
One of the greatest performances caught on film ever
Sure it was.
I appreciate the goof who screamed "THIS IS KISS" in such a vindictive manner after Paul said "this is the sensitive stuff." Like he was as hyped to hear Beth as he was listening to Strutter for the first time
This is my favorite song by KISS .
I love Peters raspy voice
One of the most beautiful songs. His voice is amazing.
I liked this back when it first came out.
I still like it
after all these years.
To hear it unplugged that's another level.
👍😑
I still like this song after all these years.
I like it unplugged to.
The best moment. What a voice, what a solo, fine bass lines....
This is a KISS. it's too beautiful to imagine, either too beautiful to believe.
This is the best Kiss has ever sounded live.
NO IT'S NOT!
@@frankbolander2239Oh YES it Is! 😊
Love this unplugged version! Peter's voice is great and Ace's solo was beautiful!!
Ace may not be the most technically gifted guitarist KISS ever produced but I love that solo
Ace can shred. Find some old live vids of them in their prime. If Ace wasn't drunk, he was ripping on guitar.
Ace is definitely one of the greatest guitar players. Especially over 40+ years playing. If not longer
Ace will always be one of the best because even though he couldn’t read music and had no formal training it, he could just “feel it”. That’s what made him great.
Most of his solos are songs within the songs. That cant be said about many guitarists.
I loved this. An amazing group of guys. Forever, KISS!
Man..just randomly decided to give this a first time listen- :: goosebumps ::
This was pretty frickin damn good, executed perfectly. Beautiful.
Love his voice😍
Always liked this ballad by KISS , never realized Peter Criss sang it.
Great performance 👌. And Gawd Damn ACE!
Showing everyone who the real musician in the band is 🎸 🤘🙌!!!!!
This is as it should be all together, they are KISS.
This is so good, the deeper level of friendship and chemistry playing. Great job
To the guy saying "this is kiss!" YES IT IS!!!
This is the greatest moment in the band's history
For all the bashing they have all done on each other, you can see the way Peter hugs each member, especially Gene that they had a true brotherly bond
The magic those guys had was something special .
I never realized how talented Kiss were until I really listened to there music and studied their riffs
I really love this soo much it still makes me cry I remember when my big brother sang it I really do miss you so much brother Chris it's still hard that you're gone I really feel soo lost without you I know that Iwill see you again in heaven rip
I get chills everytime I see the moment KISS got back together ❤
Maravillosa interpretación Peter, Ace con su solo de 🎸 y el beso fraternal que les dió.
Me encantó 😍💖💋
