• 11 KISS “Unplugged” - ...
Today on the channel, we are checking out KISS as they perform their song "I Still Love You" on MTV Unplugged in 1995! This was my first look at a performance with no makeup, and while it was different, I still enjoyed it! The vocal performance was insane and the chorus had such a great hook! I can't wait to hear more from KISS! Hope you enjoy! #reaction #kiss #kissarmy #70srock #genesimmons #classicrock #acefrehley #petercriss #paulstanley #musicreactions

Paul Stanley's voice was INCREDIBLE on this tune! What should we check out next from them?
Check out Eric Carr drum solo from crazy nights live in Japan/song is War Machine . Also Cozy Powell w/ Rainbow drum solo 1977 Someone here has it posted as best drum solo ever. Love your channel! Also recommend Queen I'm in love with my car and Somebody to love from Queen rocks Montreal '81! Roger Taylor was a wonderful player and singer!
@@jimilove7773 Thanks so much! We actually covered Somebody to Love here on the channel! You can find it on our homepage under the playlist ‘Bands • Groups’ or type it into the search bar on our homepage! Thanks so much for hanging out!
Paul Stanley was criminally underrated as a vocalist
This is Paul at peak powers. Breathtaking.
Phantom of the Opera
@@thomasbonnett4800 Пол был на пике сил в 89-92 годах,учи материал)))
One of the best rock singers of all time!
No doubt about it. Late 80’s through 90’s his voice and singing ability rivaled anyone out there.
Fuck yes
It’s really refreshing to hear someone point out the intricacies and brilliance of a kiss performance for a change. They’re underrated as musicians and songwriters.
Definitely 👍
Not a lot of people react to KISS's unplugged album, so good shows of Stanley's vocals especially this song.
Yeah it’s a shame.
Paul Stanley on vocals, Gene on bass, Bruce Kulick on guitar, Eric Singer, on drums.
Eric Carr, who died in 1991, played the drums and bass for the studio version thats on Creatures Of The Night
just a little fact...eric carr died the same day freddie mercury died nov 24 1991
Wow! So sad 😞
@@jamgee4402 Nov. 24 , but yes they both died on the same day.
Fun fact about Paul Stanley:
In 1999, Stanley starred in a Toronto production of The Phantom of the Opera,[32] in which he played the role of the Phantom. He appeared in the musical from May 25 to August 1, and again that year from September 30 to October 31, 1999, closing the show's ten-year run in Toronto.
-wikipedia
Because of this epic vocal, Paul's vocal on the Animalize '84 version often gets overlooked. But that one s crazy good too.
They took off the make up in 1983.Ace Frehley & Peter Criss left to have solo careers in '80 & '82. It was this Unplugged that got them to put the make up back on & do a reunion tour in 1996."Psycho Circus" was KISS album w' original members."Nothin' To Lose" is a great live version on this Unplugged.All members of the band came out & did a few songs Eric Singer on drums.Bruce Kulick on guitar
To say Ace & Peter left to have solo careers is a nice way ofputting it. One was a complete boat anchor by the end of 1979 and was let go. The other, Ace, could barely function by the end of 1982, let alone be in a band.
Doesn’t take away from their importance and success to the band in the first 5-6 years, but if it was keep them in the band at any cost, the band ends by 1982.
@@garrypeak4277 I had to shorten my comment, because CZcams wont let me go into great detail.3 sentences is about the limit before they erase it completely.I know others like yours can go further
Paul stanley rules
This is the best Paul's voice was at its peak. While the band had changed several times by this point, they was tighter and so experienced and seasoned. This is the line up of Eric Singer on drums and Bruce Kulick on guitar. This is one year before the reunion tour when Ace and Peter returned for a full Make-Up tour. IMO best tour they ever had. I will once again ask for you to react to something live from reunion tour Live, Rock and Roll All Nite or Detroit Rock City. Once again at their peaks musically and all their vocals was absolutely perfect.
Eric Singer the one playing drums on this song came after Eric Carr: Singer played for Black Sabbath / Badlands / The Brian May Band and of course KISS. My favorite drummer for KISS has always been Carr. RIP Eric Carr. He passed away when I was in High School so sad.
He also played with Alice Cooper for a while.
@@howardhales6325 That's right I forgot about that, impressive resume.
Yes, RIP Eric. In those days before the internet, I didn't learn of his passing until Revenge was released (who's that blonde guy?). Of course his passing was overshadowed by that of one Freddie Mercury...
@@daKwolf Yes it was.
Fantastic lead vocals.
Ericc Singer on drums...4 years later he would put the CaT makeup for 20 years or so...Bruce Kulick lead guitar...this is Bruce final tour....KISS RULES
Kiss are one of the best! 70's KISS the best line up!
This was the first unplugged I remember seeing. After that this was first the Kiss CD I ever owned. I wish that they would have done a world tour like this but that never happened. What got me Into kiss was kiss meets the phantom of the park after that I saw this. And then they did the kiss reunion tour f**king incredible. Thanks mom for getting me a ticket to see that show and for getting me the kiss stuff I wanted ❤.
The video for "Lick it Up" was their first public unveiling without makeup and was a BIGA deal. They even do the first verse showing just their feet to build up anticipation
Eric Carr, the second drummer, was the drummer for this song, and he was also the bass player for the recording of this song on the album, too.
My skin always tingles when I hear this song, that says everything about this song….❤️❤️
All KISS is good Kiss
This is when my 9 year old son fell in love with kiss 🤘✌️
One of their best songs!
My top 5 KISS tracks:
1 - Detroit Rock City
2 - I Still Love You
3 - Not For The Innocent
4 - I’ve Had Enough
5 - Keep Me Comin’
I want more Kiss reactions🎉 If you wanna see the originals Peter and Ace in unplugged I recommend you "Nothing to Lose" or "Rock n Roll all nite" please in this show
Thank you so much for the big props for Eric Singer. He's a complete Monster. You probably pissed off a lot of Peter Criss fans, 😂😂😂
You can’t please everyone! 🤣 Thanks for watching!
Paul was one of the best lead vocalist ever. This performance always gives me goosebumps.
Im so glad you got to hear this
Song is from Creatures 1982. Amazing album. To me their best album
KISS were more of a band without the makeup but that doesn't mean Im saying they weren't a band in makeup either . They are talented all round as musicians and as performers .
Drummer is Eric Singer! He is a long time with Kiss, also at the Farewell Tour. And he also played with Alice Cooper!!! Singer is Paul Stanley.
If your going to do a reaction on Kiss Unplugged please check out the song Nothin to Lose when all the band members from the past to the current then it went to a Flash back moment to lead into a Reunion Tour which started at Tiger Stadium in Detroit for a couple of years until the whole Psycho Circus 3D concert and then went down hill until they went to Sydney AUS for KISS ALIVE IV with the Symphony playing and Peter Criss joins them again.
One of the best on unplugged. Im not a musician but i seen how difficult it was to go from rock music and amplifiers to break it down to this. It was beyond awesome. Bruce Kulick was great.
Eric Singer on drums. Fun fact, for several years he would go on tour with KISS and then turn around and go on tour with Alice Cooper.
This is the best vocal performance by Paul Stanley... ever.
One of the best performances ever by any one
Check out the whole Unplugged show if you get the chance. Later in the set they bring Peter Criss and Ace Frehley out for the last few songs, the first official reunion of the original four since Peter left in 1980. This would lead to the Reunion Tour, and them putting the makeup back on for the first time in 13 years.
I agree with you on those Toms, love the sound of those Pearl Masters drums on clear Ambassadors.
there's a good start 8 songs to get ya pumped!!!
The lyrics! OMG❤
There was& is nothing like thd sound& energy of the original 4 guys,but KISS in any form is KISS.
Dude paul shows off showing why hes one of the best barr none
Thank you for doing the reaction for this song. It was great seeing your reaction to it. I just sent in a donation for another KISS reaction “god of thunder” live in Detroit 1990. Hopefully we will get that one here soon. :)
Thanks Brett! Loved this one! Never seen them perform without their makeup so it was fun for me! Try to get to the other one as soon as I can. Have a few others I have to knock out first. Have a great one!
As far as "Unplugged" shows go, this is up there 👍 one of my favorites. Only 3 other shows can compete: A.I.C, Queensryche and Tesla's Five Man Acoustical Jam
This was so refreshing to see... An honest and real reaction to KISS!! Regarding your comment at 7:00... it's all the real KISS 😎
Really appreciate the kind words and thanks for swinging by the channel!
Paul is an incredible singer 🙏
This tune is off their Creatures of the Night album. 1982. Last with the makeup until they put it on again for the reunion. The album cover has Ace on it but he didn’t play on the record. Different guitar players are on it with Vinnie Vincent coming on board, playing some lead and doing some songwriting. He was on the next record, Lick it Up, their first without makeup. He was fired after that tour. Bryan Adams actually cowrites a couple tunes on Creatures. It’s known for its big heavy 80s era rock drums sound. 2 of the best 80s KISS records are arguably Creatures of the Night and Lick it Up. Creatures is a big fan favourite even for a lot of the older 70s diehards.
This is Paul Stanley at his peak vocally. If you would have seen them live in the last 10 years, Paul's Voice is just a shadow of this. But it happen to MOST singers as they age, there are exceptions to the rule, but Paul surely did.
Ace Frehley has said, and I agree, that its harder to play lead on an acoustic guitar vs an electric. I have to tip my hat to him and to Bruce Kulick on this session because they both stayed faithful to the old solos originally played on electric guitars.
I'm not sure what other Kiss stuff to recommend. Revenge was a great album, heavier than the 70s and early 80s stuff. After that was Carnival Of Souls, which went in an even darker direction than Revenge.
Other non Kiss songs:
Aerosmith: Woman Of The World
Thin Lizzy: Cowboy Song
Megadeth: The Doctor Is Calling
ZZ Top: Waiting For The Bus
Jimi Hendrix: Drifting
Grand Funk Railroad: Bad Time
Misfits: Don't Open Till Doomsday
I know I might get a lot of shit for this, but Lana Del Rey's "Ride" is a great song. The video is like a mini movie, sort of like MTV videos were back in the day.
The Unplugged night was probably the best Paul's voice ever sounded. He was amazing that night!! You should check out some other songs from that show like "Nothin' To Lose" and "Rock N Roll All Nite" with Peter and Ace joining them on stage. It was incredible and launched them into a reunion and bringing the makeup back.
Chills!
The original is from the Creatures of the Night album. That album gets overlooked but there are some fantastic songs on that album, My favorite being Saint and Sinner.
I also love the original version of this song from the Creatures album.
If you want to see a early KISS, that in my mind, was one of the first original metal songs in my opinion: Parasite from Cobo Hall in 1976. If you need the clip, contact me! I got everything from KISS from every era.
💥⚡KISS⚡💥 is so huge , yes these guys had a gimmick , with their makeup, and their pyro , live performances , but they were good songwriters if you really check it out their catalog is huge I mean it started like in 1975 to 2023 I think they did their end of the road tour which really started to try to end in 2020 but covid messed it all up , but ended up ending the 2023 👍🏼🤟🏼💪🏼💋⚡💥🇺🇸🎯💯🔥🍎
A lot of people have always crapped on the band's songwriting and abilities to play.
But they weren't ever nearly as bad as people who didn't like them, claimed that they were.
Exactly, bands don't have a career like KISS had without the music being good, if not great.
Gotta see nothing to lose from the same show! Ace and Peter come out and jam!
100,000 years 1975, making love 77 live
KISS at their prime. Yes, the original lineup was the best but this is something else and what they should have went back to in 2001.
When Paul initially wrote the song he had gone through a breakup. When this was recorded, he was just starting a divorce.
Best kiss lineup! They were so tight
You should watch the whole show. Eric Singer/drums,Bruce Kulick/ lead guitar. Later original drummer,PeterCriss& lead guitarist Ace join this show. Eventually leading to the reunion tour.
This is my favorite MTV's unplugged concert and possibly one of top 5 favorite concerts I've seen - on screen or in person. Of all the MTV's Unplugged I've seen (and I've still got a 30 on VHS) - I think KISS, Paul McCartney, and Sting (and - begrudgingly saying this - perhaps Pearl Jam) - took the event most seriously preparing versions of their songs for it, not just playing the usual only accoustic.
There were two more ballads in that concert and these are my favorite performances of "Every time I look at you" and "Going blind"
By 1982 KISS was all but dead. They were playing to half arenas and couldn't even fill that and album sales tanked. In 1983 they took off the makeup and appeared without it for the 1st time live on MTV. That restarted their career and put MTV on the map. Suddenly, both were relevant. They actually sold more records in the 80s without makeup than they did the 70s with it. The 90s came around and they were about dead again (as every rock band was because of the rise of grunge). After 92's album, Revenge (which I think is their best album), they started doing official KISS Konventions where all sorts of merch was sold, a lot of stuff from their vault was put on display and they'd play an acoustic set. Conventions had been going on for years in multiple cities and we're very successful so they figured they'd do an "official" one and make money themselves. It was very successful. Peter Criss, after not talking to Gene and Paul for over a decade, took his kid to one of them just to show how it used to be and he was a big deal at one time. He ended up on stage to sing Beth and the crowd went nuts. MTV Unplugged was pretty big at the time and they approached Gene and Paul about recording the acoustic show at the LA KISS Konvention but with Ace and Peter. They even released it on home video. That's what this song is from. Ace and Peter played a few songs with all 4 of the other guys and that's what lead to the reunion and putting the makeup back on and once again pulled KISS off of life support.
Paul. Could sing !
Epic!🙏⭐️👊
Dig your enthusiasm and your insights... LET'S GO!
Thanks for hanging out! 😁
Paul singing,Eric Singer on drums and I think Bruce Kulick
I remember something that really blew my mind concerning Paul Stanley and how pro he is. A show in Australia I think, around 1982, he played the hit song "Shandi" only him on guitar and it was so freaking good. I think that had an issue with equipment, and he filled in while the issue was corrected. I highy recommand, the video is on you tube.
Wow, this was Paul at his very best, imo!! Fantastic vocals, and the song wasn't too bad either. I never knew they did this performance. It was cool. I'd love to see more of it.
Gene and Paul were the main lead vocalists. Peter and Ace took vocals on songs sprinkled in here and there. Some of my favs are Gene's vocals. That dude is wild!
And recently I learned on another channel that there are 5-string and 6-string basses these days. Now, I learn there are acoustic basses also! What have I been doing for the past 30 years or so?
Yeah, so many different types of instruments out there! This vocal performance was insane for sure! So good!
Thank you for exploring the non KISS radio hits (they did try hard for this one to be a hit though). If you want to reach long, try something from the album "(Music from) the Elder". "The Oath", "Just a Boy", or "Dark Light". This is considered widely as their worst album. I consider it one of the best. Certainly better than "Anamalize", "Asylum", "Crazy Nights" and "Hot in the Shade" era. "Unmasked" was also deemed a non starter. Loved it.
Unplugged is great, really showcases some great songs without all the pyro
It's Paul singing, Gene on bass, Eric Singer on drums ( after Eric Carr passed away) Bruce Kulick on lead guitar
Kiss is awesome. Different eras and different members but the core members Gene and Paul has always been there. Check out the 1983-1996 era, its super great also!
Check out Eric Carr drum solo from crazy nights live in Japan/song is War Machine . Also Cozy Powell w/ Rainbow drum solo 1977 Someone here has it posted as best drum solo ever. Love your channel! Also recommend Queen I'm in love with my car and Somebody to love from rocks Montreal! Roger Taylor was a wonderful player and singer!
Eric Singer is the drummer, he wears Peter Criss make up now. Haven’t checked, but he may be kiss longest tenured drummer
That looks like Eric Singer on the drums, but I'm not 100% sure. I do believe he was with them for a while. He was a great drummer, played with a bunch of people. I kinda forgot how good this song was. Didn't take long to realise I preferred Stanley's tunes over Simmons', but this one was really out of the mold for them. And was greatly improved, like a lot of bands, by doing the Unplugged thing. What a great series that was.
Loved your reaction 😍❤️.
Really appreciate it! 😄
That's Eric Singer on Drums,he took over when Eric Carr died.
That's Bruce Kulick on the Lead Guitar. He was there for Years.
On this Unplugged performance,Peter & Ace came out & played a few songs.
Ace sang 2000 Man & Peter sang Nothin' To Lose. U should check Both of those out. Great Jams.
Found it!😂
@@loonytickreese Hey!!! Let’s goooo! 😄
This is a beautiful song by Paul Stanley. He is my man lol
It was singing songs like this one...and hitting and holding notes...is why Paul's voice was shot by the time he became a senior citizen.
That is very true.
He lasted a damn long time overall, we were just spoiled by his longevity.
@brwie When Paul Stanley still had his voice. He was the best front man in rock. I think he lost It I want to say mid 2000's. Because he from CZcams videos I've seen was doing a tour with kiss. And also another tour at the same time and his voice was lost.... he still has an amazing personality for interviews, and I could listen to him tell stories of the rock and roll his guitars anything. Truth be told, if he had not lost his voice. Kiss would still be touring.
No doubt in my mind about that.
Kiss super reunion at the end of this session
Gene played really good bad guy/terrorist in several movies and TV shows.
Really?! I didn’t know he was an actor too! He has his hands in everything! Thanks for sharing!
What a great video. God gave rock and roll to you is a great KISS anthem wroth a listen. it was the last performance Eric carr did with KISS before he passed couple weeks later
Robbin Ford played the solo on the studio version! The great blues player
So many put them down because they think they simply rely on flashy costumes and pyro to get them through, but, strip it all away, and this is what you get. You can't endure as long as they have without talent.
PASSION. ThunderRockers K I S S showed emotions deeper than the Mariana Trench, and a lust for sincerity.
Every man can relate to the honesty of this song, and the authenticity of this performance. 🤟
As a drummer you should love their album "Revenge"
Eric Singer on drums, stayed with with Kiss till the end. He put on Peter's Catman make up.
Vinnie Vincent wrote this! Vinnie was the man next to Ace!
Kiss, Nirvana and Alice In Chains are the best MTV Unplugged episodes
If you listen reeeeally close, you can hear the makeup.
🤣😂🤣
@@setonhillstudios That's what I say when people say Kiss sucks, they can't play well, they look like clowns, etc
But for you it was just for fun
@@Pamplemousse82223 🤣😂 Love it!
Try I Stole Your Love!
I know that nearly everyone refers to "Beth" when they think of a ballad from KISS.
But personally, I have always thought that "I Still Love You" (the original LP version) is the best ballad that KISS ever recorded.
I don't believe that it was ever released as a single.
However, I do feel that had it been, it very likely COULD HAVE BEEN the band's highest charting song... possibly even going to #1.
Paul singing I think Eric drumming and Bruce Kucklic and Gene
Singer
That's eric singer former drummer for alice cooper and current drummer for kiss now
.....SETON..check out 1977- I stole your love LIVE
Guitarist Bruce Kulich would go on the play live for Grand Funk Railroad after Mark Farner left. You check out Bruce's youtube channel. He's a pretty good guitarist and puts a lot of his bands stuff live on there.
Creatures of the Night is a great album! Hopefully you will check out some more songs from that album! I recommend the song Danger from that album!
Appreciate it! 🤘🏻
By the time they took the make-up off their career looked like it was over. Hardly any of the old fans cared since most of them had dropped off - But taking the make-up off got them a lot of media attention and revitalized their career gaining them a lot of new fans.
Tarzan Stanley!
The best no makeup song if Unholy for a rocker and Forever for a power ballad. God of Thunder is the best makeup song with a surprise!👀👀👀👀
If you want some KISS humor, check out GOD OF THUNDER from this same event. Maybe compare it to the plugged in version
