Yep, the little smile throughout the song/video told me that she really liked it. 😉 Kiss’s album“Destroyer” was the first one I ever owned. I was a five, nearly six, year old girl from the country, at the time. Still can’t believe my parents bought it for me, lol. I’ve been a fan ever since. 💁🏻♀️
My friends babysitter gave him some Kiss records, and we were loving the costumes, make up, Gene breathing fire, etc. I got Hotter Than Hell, Dynasty, and Double Platinum, for my 5th or 6th birthday, and I played them on my Mickey Mouse record player... ah, the good ol' days. 😄
There's a classic interview with KISS from 1979 you should react to. It's from 'The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder'. Trust me, it's funny af. Ace steals the show.
@@atrumphasmatis6719 if Ace's behavior pissed Paul off, he did a better job of hiding it than Gene, because I couldn't tell whether Paul was getting pissed off at Ace during that interview Gene on the other hand, it was blatantly obvious that he was getting pissed at Ace
Yes! Finally KISS 🤘as a longtime kissfreak I hope y'all love it ❤️ I was 12 years old the first time I saw them in Oakland CA at the cow palace on August 16th 1977 I was blown away 🤯 cheap trick opened for them, you should check out some of their music 🎶 like....... "Surrender" , "I want you to want me", "I'm a California man" y'all would dig it ✌️ and I'm really diggin your reactions 😎
I wonder if cheap trick did Don't Be Cruel........that was the very day Elvis died. 8/16/77. August 16 is an important date in Rock and Roll. Madonna was born. Aretha died. Elvis died. It was the middle day of Woodstock. & Kiss was at the Cow Palace. There may be other events as well. You tell me.
Love this song. One of the all-time best. Supposedly this was an embarrassment for them for years. I dunno. Anyways, it's probably the only song of theirs I really like. I did enjoy "Lick It Up". The video is so incredibly 80s in terms of how cheesy rock could go. Paul Stanley asked me a question once. Story in 3...2...1 Ok. So back in the olden times (the 90s) I lived in NYC. I wasn't rich then either. So at some point I learned how to stand outside premieres etc to see famous people. I would take bad pictures and develop them which was about $15 in total entertainment expenses. Anyhoo, one day some of the other stalker people I befriended during this time were waiting for KISS outside this one hotel. It was a big deal because it was the first time they'd put on the makeup in years. They were there for a few days. So one day Dennis Rodman came out of the same hotel in a wedding dress. This is probably somewhere on TH-cam. Anyways, At the same time this was happening Paul came out of the hotel, not in makeup, and as he was passing me, unnoticed, he asked "what's going on?" because there a lot of commotion off to the side. And I told him, "that's Dennis Rodman" and he went "Oh" and walked away. That is my great Paul Stanley story. lol
This is a Disco song, listen to the beat. Sales were down for Kiss so they sold out for this crap. Worse record ever. Thank God they snapped out of it!
As a kid, we would play Kiss in my friend's basement. Her older brothers played guitar and drums... they made me be Gene one time and ran out of makeup, so put marker on my eyes lmao My parents thought I'd been in a fight... I think the stepmonster took a couple layers of my skin off with the marker! She was a beast hahaa I was scarred slightly, but still a good time band 😉
My buddy and I used tennis rackets as guitars and would pretend for hours. I was Ace for Halloween a couple of times and won best costume at my elementary school Halloween carnival. Back around '04-'05 we went to see them in concert and I got my face painted as Ace. I was 35 at the time but felt 10 again.
@@mikestevens917 that's awesome! I'd always beg to be Ace lol but Noooo! Had to be Gene! Lol Sounds like you had every reason to win the contest! I went to a Bowie tribute show and my friends begged me not to face paint/Ziggy it up, the NERVE!🤣 I didn't use a lightning bolt, but crazy colored eye shadows, I can't believe I let them silence my art hahaa The show was amazing, Corey Glover from Living Color headlined, the guy still has it!!
Hey yall, Wow, I love this video reaction and want to thank you for bringing back the vibes! KISS is the first rock band that I discovered during the time that they were coming up ! I'm from the 70's and born in the perfect time to have experienced the music of that era in actual real - time as all the bands that yall have been reacting to. I had all the KISS vinyl collection. Dynasty was a change to me with a disco
Hey guys if you want a little insight into Kissmania, check out the movie Detroit Rock City. It's funny as hell, but it is extremely accurate to how big they really were. Great soundtrack and Kiss is actually in the movie. Love you guys and keep it up!✌
I have a reaction video. The band is Cradle Of Filth they are originally from Suffolk England in 1991, they are an extreme black metal goth band with a variety of styles, they celebrated 30 years in 2021 with their newest album Existence is Futile, Crawling King Chaos, Necromantic Fantasies and How Many Tears to Nurture a Rose are the best videos check them out you won’t be disappointed
I've seen them over a dozen times. 1992 my first time, no makeup, Revenge Tour Charleston WV, second reunion show Louisville Ky 1996, and many more until Ace left again. I have his face on my right shoulder.
PLEASE check out MORE KISS...but watch the classic more "rock' and harder edged stuff from between 1975-1978 when they were at their peak and glory! Some great shows to check out are Japan 1977,Houston 1977,Detroit 1976.
My first concert was KISS in '76, They were the #1 band '77 in the world. They put on a great show music pyrotechnics and blood from Gene Simmons(man with the long tongue)
❤❤❤46 year fan here seen with and without makeup. Longevity because no bull with drugs and crap I love them to this day. Genes brilliant and read on his upbringing.
You guys should check out "Psycho Circus" and "We Are One" by them. From the time I could walk and talk I have been a fan. Most people request the more popular ones but don't be afraid of the ones that stick out among the most requested. They always got a bad rap, not so much on the music, but judged more so from appearance. My grandma, who passed 2 years ago, wasn't a fan but if I sung a tune randomly or hummed it, I'd find her tapping her foot trying come up some sort of beat to it herself lol.
I love watching many reactors and I just realized that this is the 1st Kiss reaction that I have seen. Great choice of song also, I hope I will enjoy it! I say all this before even watching your video.
Marvel put out a comic book line with they as Super Heros with powers based on their makeup. If I had kept the ones I had they would be worth about $3000.00 each today. One issue sold, at that time (1977) for $1000. The band members each donated a pint of blood to be mixed with the ink for printing. A new car cost $5000 then.
They say back when this came out people hated it said they went disco and I guess that wasn't cool if you are a die hard rock fan.I was like 2 when this came out so by the time I got around to hearing it in the mid or late 80s I thought it was there best song because I could dance to it.
This song is polarizing among the KISS Army. Some love it and some hate it. It all depends on when you started liking the band. If you were with them from the beginning you probably view this time period as when KISS "sold out". If you were a kid in 1979 this was probably your first introduction to the band so you have an emotional attachment to this song. If you became a fan after 1979 you probably like it and think of it as another cool KISS song. It's really interesting to hear KISS fans discuss this song. Personally I love it and don't care that they went "disco". Good music is good music for my ears. Yes their concerts are awesome. I've seen them 4 times and each time was an experience.
Yeah, that one's just not true. Besides, if *that* much blood poured out of his mouth that an audience could see it, then he'd be rushed to the hospital.
Not a kiss song but lead guitarist Ace Frehley started his own band called frehleys comet and “Into the night” was definitely my favorite and I think y’all would love it, very 80s.
They had a brilliant idea, it's a stage gimmic but it worked very well for them; people don't want to see the guy next door, they want to see a space alien on stage, people want to see rock stars! Without the stage makeup they'd have been just another rock band, and their music isn't the most complex or deep, it's just rock and roll.
Now from the same album, Dynasty, check out "2000 man" which is a Rolling Stones cover, "Charisma" It's the demon singing for her on that one. I think you both will love it, and the second best song on the album " Magic touch". Some people hate that album though. It's considered the "KISS went disco" album.
If you watch any live concert performances from 1975-1978 especially,you'll see how badass KISS is/was back in the day with all the blood,fire,pyro,smoke,lights,confetti storms,hydraulic platforms,bombs and just really cool and catchy songs!...believe me, the time periods i already mentioned is when KISS was at their peak. By the time "I was made for lovin' you" came out,their popularity was starting to wane because most people hated the more poppier "disco" sound and the extravagant brightly colored outfits,whereas before 1979 their outfits were primarily black and silver.
I've seen them 5 times...every show I've been to has been more energetic than the last with younger people really getting experienced with them. I would really suggest "I still love you", and domino. Not there biggest radio hits bit def fan favorites
Explain to me what is talent? Do u go to a concert to have fun or to digest music and check if the players hit each note perfectly? Kiss has more talent than most other bands. Your just to ignorant to see it.
@@SirManfly if you are a musician you will realise that their songs are not technically great. But fun and unpretentious. Paul Stanley has a great voice.
A musician also understands that there is a difference in being a great technical player and being a great songwriter. That’s where kiss outshines even the greatest of technical players. They knew how to write GREAT songs.
Kiss- The cause for the only time I have ever been arrested. I was in college and Kiss had a reunion tour in Cleveland, Ohio 96'. We decided to go to the concert and try and buy tickets from scalpers outside Gund Arena. I bought mine from an undercover cop posing as a ticket scalper. Spent the next several hours sitting in a jail cell waiting for my girlfriend to drive up and bail me out. LOL
When Kiss started out in 1973, they wanted to adopt a 'glam' image w/ makeup & eyeliner, like the New York Dolls, David Bowie... but the original 4 guys weren't particularly attractive in that image. They admitted they saw Alice Cooper performing one night in his trademark black eyeshade makeup character... and they thought that would suit them better - if each member of Kiss came up w/ a 'character' ...That was how the original Kiss had the makeup characters. Gene Simmons (bass/vocals) had the long tongue, and his character became 'the demon'... Their first manager (the late) Bill Aucoin saw them perform and brought in more production to add to their live show... Gene would breathe fire and split fake blood during the set... Ace Frehley (lead guitar) had his guitar 'smoke' during a guitar solo and shoot bottle rockets... Peter Criss would have his drums rise above the stage... There would be bombs and pyro going off, and that was Kiss' attraction, seeing them live in concert. 'I was made for loving you' was written by Paul Stanley (vocals & guitar) inspired by the disco music in the clubs of 1978/ '79... it marked a departure for Kiss from their hard rock sound. Although it became an international hit in 1979, Kiss saw their hardcore audiences be replaced by kids and their moms on tour... Peter Criss (drums) was struggling w/ drug problems, did not play on this record (mostly) and he was not performing well either... he was fired in 1980.
I get your reference to the 'IT' clown and Gene Simmons. A great song but it wasn't met with much love when it was first released. Check out - Love Gun, Detroit Rock City, Shout it Out Loud & God Gave Rock & Rock To You 👍🤘
Yes,This is a Disco song but dont listen to the haters its still good. Life's too short to be hating on Disco music some 40+ years later. Great song! Great reaction 😁
Detroit City Rock !!! Great movie about a teen trying to get tickets to see KISS, and Gene Simmons and his fricken long tongue 👅 😜 🤟✌❤🇨🇦 by the way his stage name is the Demon. Glam rock baby the drummer has a great song called Beth try it😉 and congrats again on 100k ❤✌
Here is a band who went to the extreme with the costumes and the make up but did not cover themselves with ink. You would think that gene Simmons would have serious tattoos but he has no tattoos. The only member of the band at this time who had a tattoo was peter Chris, and it was a small drum with a lightening bolt on his right shoulder.
Shawn 'Clown' Crahan (percussionist/ backing vocalist) of Slipknot has admitted that he's a huge Kiss fan... Kiss inspired everyone from Metallica to Marilyn Manson to KoRn, Slipknot & Volbeat...
KISS was criticized for selling out to the disco market in songs like this. If you want to see them in a more recent video, check out 'Unholy", with Gene Simmons singing lead, no make up, a better guitarist in Bruce Kulick and better drummer in Eric Singer. Taking off the makeup after so many years was a gamble and their record sales did suffer. This later version of KISS is not as popular but in my opinion, they are musically better and MUCH heavier (metal). The song "Unholy' is an FU to all the critics who accused them of being satanic. Pretty funny considering they are Jewish. th-cam.com/video/kfmrX_WlM2w/w-d-xo.html
You can’t worry about the haters. Just keep on, keeping on!🙂 Love Kiss!!
For reals!
"Paul Stanley reminds me of the IT clown"....WHAT???? LOL !
That song gives me crazy energy !

The face paint got folks interested.. the good music kept folks listening.
I only went to one Kiss concert but I was three rows back from center stage. What a show.
KISS ARMY was here, greetings and KISSes!
Speaking of KISS. they were my daddy's favorite band. Check out their song: And Then She Kissed Me. Keep up the good work, y'all
That was a cover of The Crystals "And then he kissed me." The Crystals were an all female group that originally recorded the song in July 1963.
Kiss Dynasty was the first album I ever owned. I thought this was the greatest. It's weird how your taste in music changes in a lifetime.
I saw them in 2022 on their farewell tour....they were awesome!!! They put on a great show!!! Not a boring moment!
Hey guys if you want a little insight into Kissmania, check out the movie Detroit Rock City. It's funny as hell, but it is extremely accurate to how big they really were. Great soundtrack and Kiss is actually in the movie. Love you guys and keep it up!✌
To see them live in concert doing this song is amazing!
When they play this live, there are pyros that go off at the end that shakes the whole arena!

KISS-All American Man (70s)
I was 9 when Kiss appeared on the Paul Lynn Halloween Special on TV.
Bought Dressed to Kill on LP next week. STILL a fan of the original line up Kiss!
Kiss was my first concert, it was their first concert without the makeup. I was 14 and loved it 😊
I know why... her eyes and smile and looking into the camera says it all, outstanding 😍
They put on the best concerts!! Just saw them in 2019 still so entertaining.
Marvel put out a comic book line with they as Super Heros with powers based on their makeup. If I had kept the ones I had they would be worth about $3000.00 each today.

You should do "Detroit Rock City" it's a Banger, You'd surely ❤️ it!! And she'd smile big!🤘🎸🎼
Kiss's best disco song lol. It's a banger!
The bridge from Paul’s falsetto to Ace’s licks is so lit.
War Machine, God of Thunder, Rock and Roll all Nite, I love it loud, Deuce and Unholy.

I love kiss,. My oldest son played kiss day & night. Saw him live 3 times.🎸🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Kiss the OG legends
Demon(gene Simmons) my favorite still fw the whole band tho this era of kiss was a vibe
During an early concert Gene Simmons bit his tongue and blood flowed out his mouth. The crowd went wild so the band incorporated it into the act.
That's not true about gene Simmons biting his tongue, absolute bullshit.
False! His blood vomiting routine was a part of the show using fake blood that he made himself with a few grocery store ingredients.
Yeah, that one's just not true. Besides, if *that* much blood poured out of his mouth that an audience could see it, then he'd be rushed to the hospital.
Check out Allice Cooper some of his live tunes Schools Out . 18 .No Mr Nice Guy .He was doining the make before KISS
First time my ass no one on this planet ignore this tune ..
Not a kiss song but lead guitarist Ace Frehley started his own band called frehleys comet and “Into the night” was definitely my favorite and I think y’all would love it, very 80s.

More history ,more 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋!!!!!!!
Fans hated this song called it DISCO - yet, I consider it one of their best. Not a very talented band, but the best at promotion hands down -
I'm with you. This and The Elder are criminally underrated.
Not very talented? what??

I saw these live in Donington 1996. They were amazing. I was standing right under Gene Simmons when he rose above the crowd on a metal platform.
KISS ROCKS
This was the Kiss album that got me into Kiss as a kid.
Kiss- The cause for the only time I have ever been arrested. I was in college and Kiss had a reunion tour in Cleveland, Ohio 96'. We decided to go to the concert and try and buy tickets from scalpers outside Gund Arena. I bought mine from an undercover cop posing as a ticket scalper. Spent the next several hours sitting in a jail cell waiting for my girlfriend to drive up and bail me out. LOL
My first favorite band. This was done with Disco popular, so it was their foray into it.
Ace freely is a star guitar 🎸 in houl fame guitar player and have to listen his songs New York groove live great songs
Disco KISS, it was sad. A lot of band's had a Disco song. Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, Queen it was sad. Then the day came when we killed Disco.
Yeah, Kiss is their own genre; people prolly got pissed cuz Kiss was doing it first. Kiss fans are rabid.
Congrats on 100k!
Kiss like them or not remain one of the biggest and most influential bands of all time

There would be bombs and pyro going off, and that was Kiss' attraction, seeing them live in concert.
'I was made for loving you' was written by Paul Stanley (vocals & guitar) inspired by the disco music in the clubs of 1978/ '79... it marked a departure for Kiss from their hard rock sound. Although it became an international hit in 1979, Kiss saw their hardcore audiences be replaced by kids and their moms on tour... Peter Criss (drums) was struggling w/ drug problems, did not play on this record (mostly) and he was not performing well either... he was fired in 1980.
Hi guys love kiss love this song
A couple of other KISS songs you should check out are "Beth" "Strutter" " I like it Loud" "I stole your Love" and "God of Thunder"
One of the most lit short guitar solos ever!
You have no idea how huge they were in the 1970's. The biggest band ever... changed the culture
You guys should check out I wanna be sedated by Ramones
The 70's came before the 80's, chronologically speaking.
I get your reference to the 'IT' clown and Gene Simmons.
A great song but it wasn't met with much love when it was first released.
Check out - Love Gun, Detroit Rock City, Shout it Out Loud & God Gave Rock & Rock To You 👍🤘
KISS was what I grew up with as a child back in the late 70’s I even had the dolls aka 12 inch figures……my mom throwing them away was horrific!!!😢
Congrats on 100k subs!! You guys are awesome. Would love to see more Pantera reactions from you guys
I love this song!!!!
That song !
When I live in east baton rouge Louisiana I saw kiss 1977
A little more danceable than their usual harder rock style, but a BIG worldwide hit for them at the time & they still play in concert today.
Man , just keep rocking and digging it
Yes,This is a Disco song but dont listen to the haters its still good. Life's too short to be hating on Disco music some 40+ years later. Great song! Great reaction 😁
Detroit City Rock !!! Great movie about a teen trying to get tickets to see KISS, and Gene Simmons and his fricken long tongue 👅 😜 🤟✌❤🇨🇦 by the way his stage name is the Demon. Glam rock baby the drummer has a great song called Beth try it😉 and congrats again on 100k ❤✌
It was KISS' stab at the disco market. Not really representative of their music but still a great song!
Here is a band who went to the extreme with the costumes and the make up but did not cover themselves with ink. You would think that gene Simmons would have serious tattoos but he has no tattoos. The only member of the band at this time who had a tattoo was peter Chris, and it was a small drum with a lightening bolt on his right shoulder.
Actually, Paul Stanley at this time had a rose tattoo on one of his shoulders.
Shawn 'Clown' Crahan (percussionist/ backing vocalist) of Slipknot has admitted that he's a huge Kiss fan... Kiss inspired everyone from Metallica to Marilyn Manson to KoRn, Slipknot & Volbeat...
Congrats on the 100K
KISS was criticized for selling out to the disco market in songs like this. If you want to see them in a more recent video, check out 'Unholy", with Gene Simmons singing lead, no make up, a better guitarist in Bruce Kulick and better drummer in Eric Singer. Taking off the makeup after so many years was a gamble and their record sales did suffer. This later version of KISS is not as popular but in my opinion, they are musically better and MUCH heavier (metal). The song "Unholy' is an FU to all the critics who accused them of being satanic. Pretty funny considering they are Jewish. th-cam.com/video/kfmrX_WlM2w/w-d-xo.html
