    Paul Stanley wrote this song, with Desmond Child and Holly Knight... not sure where all the misconceptions steam from. You may remember Desmond from I was made for loving you (a cowrite with Paul and Vini Poncia) and Holly from Love is a Battlefield (cowrite with Mike Chapman).

    Some things to note: 1. “Loser” made it into the “Alternative Polka” featured on the album “Bad Hair Day” 2. Although not a direct parody, “Traffic Jam” is inspired by Prince’s “Let’s Go Crazy” 3. “Chicken Pot Pie” has been performed live in the past.

    James as a fellow veteran I have nothing but admiration for you. Thankyou for sharing your musical talent to us mortals. Monsters is a very thought provoking song I lost my dad an ex ASM in the REME a very intelligent man served 24 years to see him alone in a care home ravaged by Parkinsons disease in the last week of his life he couldnt rest untill he was sure my mother was ok. Great respect for my farther.

    My dad passed away from cancer and this song makes me ball my eyes out every time I hear it. The music video devastates me but it’s also cathartic and healing in a way. Powerful and moving songs that come from the heart will always impact those that are going through or have been through similar experiences in life ❤❤❤
