The Worst Song On Every KISS Studio Album
Vložit

- Although I’m a huge KISS fan, I can also say that not every song from them is a priceless gem. In fact, some tracks are just plain filler, if not worse. So, in this video, I’ll go through one track from each of their 20 studio albums, give out a little background info on the songs, and tell you why they’re the runts of the litter. You wanted the worst, you got the worst!

I’m sure you have your own list of worst KISS tracks for each album. Definitely let me know which ones you come up with, as well as anything else relevant, in the comments below.
Absolutely disagree with FLAMING YOUTH from Destroyer. GREAT SONG!
@@randallbenton4481 Yes ! Actually I consider "Destroyer" the best of the "early " KISS albums. My very first KISS concert was in Chicago for the Destroyer tour. Ahhh, high school memories ! My ears rang for 3 days !
To me, those first 6 albums were classic KISS.
Personally I believe the big hit is several times their worst song on their album. Lick it up..naahhh, Tears are falling..naahh, I was made.., Shandi...
FLAMING YOUTH and not Great Expectations? you're high, dude!
“Let Me Go, Rock ‘n’ Roll” kicks major ass on “Alive!” (1975); absolutely dig the longer guitar solo at the end…
I'm sorry but "Let Me Go Rock and Roll" is one of their absolute best all time songs. It brings down the house every time they play it live!
Nah, it SUCKS!!!
Then why is it not featured on a y live work?
One of my favorite songs
Yeah I agree about this song. It's not the worst on that album. I'd probably go with "All The Way" because all of the other songs are solid. Even "Mainline."
@@RobertWilkinsonJKekMaloy It IS, it closes out the "Alive" second disc. They played a an absolutely EPIC version.
Man, we have different tastes in KISS songs!
I agree with your comment 💯% . I was just thinking the same thing.
Let Me Go Rock And Roll is one of the best songs on Hotter Than Hell. Also, Hotter Than Hell is a perfect album.
I agree this guy doesn't know to much about music
Facts. He legit ranks it as the worst cuz of one ”bad lyric” like bruh? How tf is Flaming Youth worse than Great Expectations? Also maybe Paul meant that young people was fired up and about young people and teens who are kiss fans setting the world on fire with their energy. Even if it didn’t so fucking what if it’s about gay people? A band can sing about whatever they want?
Let Me Go Rock N’ Roll is an absolute banger? So what if it had that old timey sound a band isn’t necesarily suppoused to follow the current format. Hell, thereare bands today who still make glam metal type music even if it’s not popural.
And saying that Ace is a better bass player than Gene. Just cuz it’s complicated dosen’t mean it’s good. And just cuz it’s simple dosen’t mean it’s bad.
I totally agree. He lost me when he picked that one.
I probably would have picked Mainline
@@elvis5138 I personally feel like Beth is the worst song on Destroyer .. I've grown to hate this song, it is so overplayed .. second worst, Do You Love Me, same reason.
Dirty living is the best song on Dynasty. And ace's solo is smokin
I agree, also love Ace's guitar on this.
Dirty living and Hard Times are the ones that save this album. Hes obviously never heard Dynasty. Charisma? Xray eyes?
worst song on Dynasty is I was made for loving you.
Same, I feel like Dynasty gets a lot of unwarranted hate just because of the disco tinges. That's a far better song than "I was made for loving you"
Every song by Ace on Dynasty is great
Naked City, Under The Rose and Two Timer are all great. Also Odyssey is great too.
Naked City and Under The Rose are my favourite songs on those albums
"Absolutely nothing to do with the track"...I can clearly hear Gene's backing vocals on Getaway.
Same album, different song (and vocal) - - you can hear Ace singing background on Rock Bottom
Ace DOES drop down to sound like gene. Watched him do it live just a few months ago at Miller Auditorium. That SpaceMan is the Only Space Man.
3:02 Kissin’ Time was recorded (reluctantly for a promotional campaign and as you said Casablanca released it as a single and added the single to their already released debut album against their wishes.
KISS reluctantly agreed to record the lyrically updated version of Bobby Rydell's 1959 hit (for Bobby Rydell) Kissin' Time using it in a series of local radio kissing contests designed to boost sales of the album. Apparently they recorded it within 30 minutes… not a bad cover, I personally kinda like it.
I like it, too
I think it's an absolute rocker . Aces best guitar solo as far as I'm concerned!!
Okay….the Hotter than hell track “Let me go rock and roll” was a great song way back when that album came out! If you ever saw them do it live in concert it’s such a high energy song!!!
If it was high energy, why is it not on Alive?
Uhh. It is on Kiss Alive bro..
@@RobertWilkinsonJKekMaloybro you smokin' something? Musta passed out before the album ended.
I cannot pick a song from Unmasked as my least favorite. I don’t know why but I absolutely love this album and every song on it. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I can’t say anything good about anything on both Sonic Boom and Monster. I first saw KISS on the Crazy Nights tour and that album, to me, is like Unmasked. I absolutely love it and I can’t pick a least favorite song on it. The rest of your picks I agree with.
I’m with you. I LOVE Unmasked. Two of my top five KISS songs come from it with Talk to Me being my favorite KISS song.
For me Unmasked is my favorite Kiss album too! I love how much Ace contributed along with Anton Fig playing drums. The production is kinda thin unfortunately with the guitars sounding like they're playing through a 5 watt Fender Champ.
I'm from Vancouver Island Canada and my Grandparents used to winter in Palm Springs and before they came back they would ask if I wanted anything. I asked for this album on cassette. I remember it had a beige case which was odd, the cassette itself was white and the clear plastic screen on one side was missing. But in 1987 for me this album was almost perfect.
As a drummer and bass player, Torpedo Girl was the holy grail to be able to play for me and my friends in our early teens. But as this guy mentions, the lyrics are beyond cheezy but I was too busy trying to learn how to play the hi-hat with my left foot on the up beat while playing a kind of syncopated thing with the snare and toms.
Shandi is a very good song that in my eyes gets glazed over by many critics for whatever reason. Talk to Me and She's So European were great too. Is that you is even a song I crave to hear every now and again.
I too love Unmasked, but I'm going to have to go with Torpedo Girl as my least favorite .. as much as I love Ace, it's just a silly song.
Unmasked is definitely the worst Kiss album ever way too polished way too pop
I love Unmasked, too. Not every song, but Torpedo Girl is one of my faves. And I gave up on Kiss after Lick It Up. A few songs here and there are ok, but not much into the bulk of it.
Dressed to Kill is proof that it is better to put out a short album than a long album full of fillers. Every song is razor sharp.
Meanwhile Hot In The Shade should have been called Hot Garbage ! 🤮
I always want a KISS tour in the DTK suits
@@MrManflyhonestly if they whittled it down to 9 or 10 tracks it would’ve been so much more palatable. Still not amazing but definitely better than the hour long mess we got. I use this on playlists
1. Rise to It
2. Prisoner of Love
3. Hide Your Heart
4. Forever
5. Cadillac Dreams
6. King of Hearts
7. You Love Me to Hate You
8. Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell
9. Boomerang
Still not amazing but it’s far more streamlined
def one of my fave albums
Yes: Dressed is a tight, punchy record (with poor audio engineering).
I respectfully Disagree with you on Flaming Youth and Then she kissed me.
Fr
Hot In The Shade needs a remaster/remix badly.
70% agreed, getaway is cool, dirty living is cool, let me go is awesome, remember that kiss is only about having fun, not necessarily Pink Floyd lyrics but instead you can feel the power
We only differ in two choices: On "Hotter Than Hell" it should be "Mainline" ("Mainline... baby, give it to me one time"). On "Animalize" it is definitely "Burn, Bitch, Burn" ("Oh babe, I wanna put my log in your fireplace"). "Burn, Bitch, Burn" isn't just the worst KISS song on that album, it is their worst, period. Maybe the worst song in rock. Ever.
spot on!
Love Mainline, the worst song on Hotter Than Hell is the title track to me.
I'm a KISS fan since 1974! Like any other band, KISS has certainly produced some stinkers!!
Let me go rock n roll is a GREAT SONG...My favorite actually... especially live
Love the content...but I gotta disagree about Ace playing bass better than Gene did. Dude is a severely UNDERrated bass player. Seriously go back and listen to many of the bass lines on the first 6 albums in particular. Great stuff!!
I agree, 100%. Gene never gets enough credit for his bass playing, his bass lines are what made so many of those 70s bangers. Interesting lines that differ to the guitar parts, and really add some drive to the songs. Very underrated bass player 🤘🏻
I think you were pretty easy going on these selections, and especially for The Elder...and I also sing along with laughter every damn time. Nice one, once again mate!
Bass line on Dirty Livin' (Dynasty) was awesome
Great bass line. Great guitar work, great vocals, great lyrics. WTH this guy thinking?
Such an underrated song. It could be a huge hit if some pop star covered it.
It's interesting to see how different KISS fans' picks for best or worst tracks are. Some of my all time favorite KISS songs are precisely on your list, hahaha: I do love Kissin' Time, Getaway, Flaming Youth, Then She Kissed Me, Dirty Livin', Torpedo Girl, Odyssey and We Are One. My favorite KISS studio albums, in order, are: 1. Destroyer (I love Great Expectations too!), 2. Love Gun, 3. Unmasked, 4. Dynasty, 5. KISS. I go for song catchiness rather than heaviness and don't really mind lyrics that much when it comes to KISS, so that's why.
Nice to find another Unmasked fan
People don’t like Flaming Youth?
So glad I own an OG version of the debut. I never even heard the offender until around 10 years ago.
I love Getaway....love it!
Let Me Go Rock And Roll is awesome on the Kiss Alive album.
Haven't started watching the video yet but I love that this exists. Once I became a teenager back in 05-07 and started getting into music for the first time, I fell down the KISS rabbithole since they were my Dad's favourite band. I ripped a lot of the Kissology audio and uploaded it as bootlegs on Guitars 101. Fun times.
The back catalog of KISS is a sort of boomer rock purgatory; what happens when very wealthy people have very bad song ideas yet can afford infinite studio time to ensure that these are packaged and sold as commercial products on a yearly basis.
There is no set pattern to this chaos but it generally alternates between Gene the narcissistic sex pest, and Stanley Eisen being a more articulate and nuanced sex pest. There is a difference I promise and KISS fans will know what I'm talking about.
The result is KISS' library being split effectively in two; there are songs the band was proud to play live (even if for a single tour, common with them) and are worth listening to over and over again, and the other half - close to ten whole album's worth - of the worst, most soulless and contrived boomer rock imaginable. Their work ethic is admirable for the sole reason that they wrote and sold as many brutal, soul-crushingly bad songs shoehorned onto good or otherwise great albums, as other bands have written total in their entire discography. This is probably why I love them so much. Their good songs are great, but their bad songs are completely unhinged and insane, and there are so goddamn many of them covering all possible rock subgenres.
And KISS kept doing it, consistently until 2012, culminating in an entire album worth of forgettable music - their magnum opus. Monster is quintessential KISS. It's so bad I won't listen to it or pretend it exists, just as the band, in live shows, pretends half their discography doesn't exist either. Very meta!
There are three songs that highlight this: Rockin' in the USA (Alive II), Fits Like a Glove, and Bang Bang You. Even on their most commercially successful albums, the band is creatively bankrupt and borderline retarded. Gene's penis is a snake. Paul's penis, however, is a cannonball! This is the nuance I was talking about. Germany was really neat. Truly we are in the presence of legends.
Anyways the worst song off HITS is Read My Body.
About the only thing I agreed with here was And Then She Kissed Me and Odyssey. Flaming Youth is my favorite track on Destroyer.
Mine too. I would personally pick Beth or Great Expectations
When I was about 10 years old my father, genuinely interested in what music I was getting into, sat down for a listen of some songs from Dressed to Kill with me. "Getaway" completely made him burst out laughing at "got no dough." He kept on laughing and going "I gotta get away" and "got no dough." It was a pretty magical moment.
In fact i do like their cover of and then she kissed me, the song i really dont like on love gun is tomorrow and tonight.
“We are One” isn’t good, but “I finally found my way” is a top 10 all time worst kiss song.
Shows you how different kiss fans are I love the song We Are One
@@billycain9890
me too, I love We Are One.. and I still agree I Finally Found My Way was fcking hot garbage (coming from someone who always enjoyed Peter in his prime- even own his mid 90s solo album that almost no one remembers)
I stopped buying KISS albums, yes albums, after Love Gun. Not because I didn’t like them anymore, just kinda outgrew them for awhile.
“Let me go rock n roll” was an awesome RnR “throwback “ that I always turned up on the stereo !
100% agree! Had all albums up to love gun. After that album, just out grew them I guess.
I'm not gonna lie, you had me in hysterics when you recited some of the lyrics. Especially See You In Your Dreams... Your expression was priceless 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, great video and great content! I just subscribed. Take good care.
There's a few Kiss albums that don't have a bad song at all in my opinion that's the debut Kiss album dress to kill creatures of the night and revenge and also rock and roll over
I loved dirty living. Guess I am strange. Lol
Been a fan since 75’…a real fan takes the good with the bad and doesn’t trash their work. 200+ songs that we know of for sure and about 10 or so are lackluster…I am sure they can live with that. I enjoyed the post but disagree on about half of the songs, especially “Let Me Go Rock n Roll” and “Flaming Youth”, I agree the chorus in Flaming Youth needed something but it was still a great song.
I absolutely love Kissin' Time. They really sing their asses off on that one.
1. Kissin time
2. Let me go
3. Two timer
4. Sweet pain
5. See you in your dreams
6. Almost human
7. Dirty livin
8. Torpedo girl
9. Odyssey
10. Danger
11. Gimme more
12. Murder in high heels
13. Any way you slice it
14. Bang bang you
15. Boomerang
16. Paralyzed
Matt, very informative and I probably agree with you on most selections. I came in right around the same time as you, more towards Lick It Up, right before the make-up came off. Would like to be friends with you on Facebook, if you're there. I also definitely need to know where you got that shirt!
Great video, however I love "torpedo girl"😊
Great vid! Loved this! Big Kiss fan.. 😎🤘
Flaming Youth, My Way and I Walk Alone are amazing songs.
This was a well done video, and even though I love most songs you’ve picked, I agree.
Let me go rock and roll is one of my all time favorite songs because I appreciate it for what it is. A pure rock and roll song to jam and solo on. I just love that.
I’m not a fan of flaming youth, but I would say great expectations is one of the few kiss songs I just can’t get behind.
Dirty livin is another one of my favorites. The bassline is one of my favorites, but I was a fan of the disco era stuff.
~Torpedo girl has a fantastic bassline, I agree.
Spit is just a crazy song. The musicality of it is really really cool and rocky to me.
I would like to point out that carnival has some heartfelt stuff on it like you said, including childhoods end and I will be there.
I would personally take raise your glasses or I’ve finally found my way to be worse. We are one is corny but I do love it.
Monster and sonic boom suffer a lot because of gene in my opinion. I understand that’s his character but could there not be 100 sexual innuendoes per song?
-I am a huge fan of Tommy, despite his tracks being subpar, he’s technical and by the books. I like that.
All this is just my opinion of course and o do thought this was a well thought out list. Apologies for the long comment.
The one lyric that Gene got right on Animalize was "Girls love money, Like bees to honey" lonely is the hunter was one of his better ones,lol
Man, pretty much every Gene song on Animalize and Asylum are turds of an extreme magnitude lyrically. I swear, on Animalize, he fit as many cliches in there as humanly possible. Burn Bitch Burn is a big offender too. You could have picked any Gene song on those albums and been on the money. You hit the nail on the head as far as Gene phoning it in.
Good video! I love Saint and Sinner, it may be my current favorite on Creatures. I agree with most of your choices, though.
from hotter than hell : strange ways, rarer: baby driver, from love gun :Hooligan", Dynasty:"Dirty Livin' ", unmasked :"Easy as It Seems",the elder:escape from the island, from lick : Fits Like a Glove", animalize : Lonely Is the Hunter",Asylum: Radar for Love", crazy nights: "Thief in the Night", hit shade : "Read My Body", revenge :"Spit",carnival :"In the Mirror", p circus :"I Finally Found My Way", ( we are one is awesome ),sonic boom :Russian Roulette", monster :"Back to the Stone Age"
For me, the worst song on Psycho Circus is hands down You Wanted The Best. Definitely not one of Gene's better outings
Kiss - Black Diamond
Hotter Than Hell - Let Me Go, Rock ‘n’ Roll
Dressed to Kill - Getaway
Destroyer - Great Expectations
Rock ‘n’ Roll Over - Baby Driver
Love Gun - Then She Kissed Me
Dynasty - X-Ray Eyes
Unmasked - You’re All That I Want
Elder - Mr Blackwell
Creatures - Rock ‘n’ Roll Hell
Lick it Up - A Million To One
Animalize - Burn Bitch Burn
Asylum - Secretly Cruel
Crazy Nights - When Your Walls Come Down
Hot in the Shade - boomerang
Revenge - Domino (Unplugged version much better)
Psycho Circus - I Finally Found My Way
Sonic Boom - Say Yeah
Monster - Freak
Also none of these are based on the lyrics, if you started analysing Kiss lyrics most songs would make the list.
Ace’s solo on ‘Kissin Time’ is superb. ‘Ladies in Waitin’ is the blandest 70s KISS imo. My favourite tracks on Dynasty and Unmasked are your least favourite. 😂 Each to their own. Thanks anyway.
Really interesting and original video. It is funny how we (Kiss fans) are on the same team, but get along with different characters. (Songs) I disagree with almost every choise you made, but found it interesting to hear your motivation. I only can not speak for Sonic Boom and Monster, because I have heard both albums once and every single song sucks big time to me. The only two Kiss albums I never bought. But that could also be because I feel like the energy plug was pulled out of the band a few years after the reunion. It is all auto-pilot ever since, live and on those two albums. Anyway…interesting video.
1. Black Diamond (love this live)
2. Got to Choose
3. Love her all I can
4. Beth (never liked that)
5. Mr. Speed
6. Then she kissed me (like it)

You did some extra credit worthy work on this one, Matt. Agreed with the list with the exception of one choice, but it’s not my list; it’s yours and I respect that entirely. But being a good sport. Uh, All Night makes me shake my head. Asylum I feel is gravely underrated. But to each their own!! 😊
Asylum and Dynasty are two kiss albums are underrated.
I cringe when I hear a kiss fan that got into them first time in the 80s and totally don’t get the 70s.
Just curious where you got your pictures disc frames from.
Amazon, but it was years ago.
Bob Halligan Jr wrote "some heads are gonna roll" by Judas Priest. That elevates him above all the styles and songs you named here.
Whenever I watch CZcams videos where people give opinions I always take those opinions with a grain of salt, but I do like this guy and his sense of humor. I also love the fact that he's doing his very best Casey Kasem impersonation.

Great reviews - nice tshirt! Merry KISSmas!
Matt, I've been a Kiss fan since '76. I think you're spot on across the board. That said, while there are some good songs on Dynasty.. Dirty Livin' grew on me over the years. The demo was tougher, rougher, grittier (not just lyrically). And to be honest, the fact that it stands so far out from the rest of the tracks, well isn't that the point? Dynasty ultimately failed (from a perspective point of view) simply because Paul wanted to dive into disco and capitalize off that trend.. albeit his timing was horrible bc disco soared years earlier and died out by 1979 year end. For better or worse, I feel Dirty Livin' as a demo was more rock, less disco. Just didn't cut it on a disco album so they altered the time signature to create a disco track. Again, I see your POV. Definitely agree with you on the end result.

I agree with Kissin Time,See You In Your Dreams,Than She Kissed Me,Odyssey,Lonely Is the Hunter,Trial By Fire,My Way, and We Are One.
On COTN, I actually like Saint and Sinner. The song I couldn’t, and still can’t stand to this day is I Still Love You. He put absolutely no effort into that chorus.

Take me down below
not only does Gene sing "baby" a lot on Let me go rock n roll...but his bass guitar is saying it throughout the whole song. "babeh babeh babeh" is his part on the guitar.
Let me go Rock and Roll is an absolute banger. It’s a perfect party song, and is hands down one of their best live songs.
I love 'my way' and think 'bang bang you' is the worst from that LP, but each to his own.
I use to not like Let Me Go Rock 'n Roll until I realized that Peter has many great drum fills throughout.
Torpedo Girl is vastly underrated.
I think that’s the fastest song KISS does. Under 3 minutes ?
It's great on Kiss Alive.
Until I got a copy of ALIVE! and read the songwriting credits I had always assumed Let Me Go Rock n Roll was a cover of a Chuck Berry tune or something like that.
I totally diagree on Flaming Youth, Getaway, Dirty Livin, Torpedo Girl, And On The 8th Day, Trial By Fire.
I agree almost in every case, tho many albums have more than two really bad tunes, but... "MY WAY" is far from being the worst tune on Crazy Nights.
It is actually one of the best four tunes and shows a fantastic vocal performance by Paul.
"No, no, no" and "Bang, bang you" are really horrendous.
dude....Saint and Sinner is maybe the best song on COTN
Eric's drumming is awesome on S&S.
True, but then again, the worst song on Creatures Of The Night is like being the most gifted kid on the short bus.
I LOVE SaS, the melodic guitar parts and Gene's voice when he cries out in various ways sounds so visceral and wicked and beautiful.
Let Me Go Rock and Roll is great and Get Away is cool too. The Destroyer and Rock and Roll Over quotes I agree with. On Love Gun I never liked Christine Sixteen because I thought it was so corny when he talks in the middle of the song. Like a do wop song from 1962.
Kissing time is one of my favorites
Most of these songs I love. Let me Go Rock n' Roll. Getaway. And Then She Kissed Me. Dirty Livin. We Are One.
I was with you until the early 80s. I Love It Loud is the worst on Creatures.I’m Alive is worse than Trial By Fire. Bang Bang You is worse than. My Way.HITS is easier to say what is a good song, but Read My Body is the worst. And I’ve always loved Torpedo Girl.
REALLY interesting and informative/occasionally funny. Denmarks 3. rd biggest KISS-FAN!
I happened to LOVE "Out of this World". Anyway - more power to U and Tommy T... ;) ....and also that song on Asylum - which was the second CD I ever got (after Tina T - What´s Love Got to....). Mid 80´s.
Stay Heavy - Simon
PS: Oh yeah - Let me go R n R is actually ALSO a KISS favourite of mine.... Nice melodical drums....
I never hated Kissin' Time. It always mystified me when everybody said they hated it, including the band themselves.
What is the name of the Ozzy disc there?
Mr. Crowley Live.
I got into KISS in 1974. My favorite KISS albums are the 1970s KISS to Creatures of the Night 1982,

Music From The Elder was supposed to be a soundtrack to a movie The Elder that was never made, so that was why it was more like a Broadway musical album then a rock album, also I think the song You Wanted the Best was the worst track on Psycho Circus, ad I actually really like Saint and Sinner from Creatures of the Night

I can get on board with most of this list. But I'd take Mainline over Let Me Go Rock n Roll and Great Expectations over Flaming Youth.
I like your t-shirt. Where can I buy it? Thank you
It was a limited edition from KISS Online. Might be sold out at this point.
15:12 ELVIS PRESLEY recorded a song named exactly that, with the word "cry" changed to "die"
I pretty much agree, except for Dirty Living. I really like that song.
Agree with most, but off base on Dynasty. "Dirty Livin'" is good. I think the worst song is "Charisma".
How am I 3 years younger than you but a Kiss fan 11 years longer? Where were you man?😂
Totally agree on Tommy Thayer's songs in last two albums. His are the worst. Also I do agree on Loney is the Hunter. That's not a song, that's a puke !
Save your love and Hard Times are my favorite songs on Dynasty.
I am late to this thread... but, being a HUGE Kiss fan, I know almost every song by heart. And I agree with most of this... and I am impressed with the thought that went into this video. But, I still like most of the songs mentioned here.... Including "Then She Kissed Me". :)
Also... "My Way" is in my top ten Kiss songs. It is so uplifting
