My leathers fit tight around me
My whip is always beside me
You want the same thing every day
I'll show you love a different way
With my sweet pain
My love will drive you insane

Kiss, surely the 2nd most over-rated band in the "classic rock" genre, after Queen?Quote:

Totally agree here. Becuase they were were Yanks, they were hyped to the heavens and made it big, but they are and were pretty shiteQuote:

The Sweat were far better , and knew how to rock and roll ,outside of there pop hits they were very goodQuote:

They outsold led zeppelin and the beatles in their prime and were the biggest draw in live music on the american circuit between 76 and 79

Multi million dollar selling band
That's kiss, not the sweet
Written some absolute belters;
Love Gun. (Superb machine gun drum and guitar intro)
I Was Made For Lovin’ You. (A truly classic disco/rock tune. Up there with “I Feel Love” for me in the disco stakes)
Detroit Rock City. (What an intro, what a bass line)
And their cover of the ‘Stones “2000 Man” is absolutely fantastic. I love the MTV acoustic version.
They made some total duds too. Loads of them. But at their best they are awesome.
Seen them live a few times and they are a top turn who put on a tremendous show. Saw them in Brooklyn in the summer in what was supposed to be their “final ever” tour. Thought it would be their last show in NYC til they announced dates all the way into late 2020 just after I bought tickets.
As the local sat next to me said, “this is the fifteenth time I’ve come to see their last ever tour”
Feckin' 'ell, those lyrics! :yikes:Quote:

But in their prime 76 to 79 they were unbeatable
Dressed to kill, destroyer , love gun , great albums
And live they were staggering , now they are just a parody
Bit close to the edge to be fairQuote:
