I must admit I'm not a kiss fan, but I have a lot of respect for Gene, he defiantly has built an empire from nothing. He is either really lucky or really smart, and I don't believe in luck, I believe in hard work. So you have to give the guy his due.
Gene is an incredibly intelligent dude. People don't like him because he's blunt and straightforward. I think he could make a post-kiss career out of just getting up there and talking and people would pay.
This is probably the most casual and natural interview I’ve ever seen with Gene! He’s still very much Gene Simmons, but he doesn’t seem as scripted or like he’s just giving the same sales pitch that he usually does. He seems genuine for once and not like a robot. 😂
Love you gene should run for president as you have a great work ethic.and you do great interviews can answer questions from people and speak from the heart ❤️
Why do the protected need to be protected form the unprotected by forcing the unprotected to use the protection that didn't protect the protected in the first place?
Nothing to do with being rich except maybe the smart one. It's like this young one, whatever or whoever you are, I am, we are prisoners in these bodies until we die. So smart people realize that being forced to physically suffer for years basically ends your life as you know it. 75%, or more, of the time in your days and freedom in-your-head-to enjoy whatever you enjoy in life will be replaced by pain, drugs for relief, doctor visits, struggles with depression frequent trips to the emergency room, etc etc etc. And this happens to a lot of people, 10s of millions in the USA alone. Smart people, thru their evolved sense of empathy, realize that avoiding things that will ruin your life is amoung the most important of life skills. Obviously if your passion is for skydiving off mountains you free climbed, you may still do dumb things as a calculated risk since nothinh else in life matters. But most people take these dumb risks everyday for no real benefit except beating some stranger to the next red light. Catching covid is a dumb thing because not being able to breath normal for months, or the rest of your life, would really suck. Apparently there are a lot more stupid people in the world than many of us assumed prior to the pandemic.... people so stupid they haven't figured out their shallow ego requires a healthy physical body.
Iv watched a bunch of Gene simmons more recent interviews and that bracelet he wears damn it's noisy. He has changed not bragging as much lately. I love Kiss own a bunch of Kiss stuff as I get older I starting to wonder why it was so important to me lol.
You are right Necromonger. Unfortunately these narcissists are the all about the establishment. Notice how he's gasping for air from wearing the mask. He should be used to masks by now
I used to think that Gene Simmons was an asshole. After watching this video I find it shocking that I agreed with everything he said and have changed my mind, although I still think he is arrogant. BTW, Sophie has the most beautiful voice and should be a major star!
at least he admits hes not a great musician and what he does is show business rather than music and thats what people consume mostly, images and brands
How long has gene Simmons been on O2. ? His on demand O2 has been puffing away during the interview. and of course his hand movements along with his facial, especially his mouth, is right out of the medical adverts. Way to go Mr. SIMMONS,. Way to go.?
He recently had covid and is prolly dealing with long covid. Even though he had a mild case it has no correlation to the severity of the damage done to his body. I had a super mild case in the summer of 2020 and it still feels like I’m not exhaling all my breath so it feels weird when I inhale.
Quit while your ahead? Really - great interview and he has a lot of wisdom - especially about unqualified rock stars but that comment about quitting is a bit delusional in my humble opinion
He may sound like an asshole, and he admits he is one (one of.his albums is named.Asshole). But Mr. Simmons makes a lot of sense. For all his successful antics.onstage, he sounds.like a concerned uncle. Rock.on,.Gene.
1988 until today? Well there was a band called Nirvana, they sold a couple records... and how about Sublime, every white reggae/stoner band owes its sound to them. It gets harder after the early 90s fosho tho
Actually, he doesn’t have a clue. And lies about drugs never doing them. I watched him smoke hashish or marijuana on stage Phoenix, Arizona veteran Memorial Colosseum 78 or 79 he was on my side of the stage hitting on my girlfriend of course. His roadie came up some steps on the left side of the stage, handed him a brass chamber pipe, and he proceeded to hit that pipe and blow the smoke straight up in the air and he smiled. His arrogance overwhelms him.
Gene is programmed for a shorter interview where his soundbytes have more impact. Starting with mediocre questions, he goes off to a speech related to a nonexistent question. Like in politics
He was wrong like a lot of smart people were. The problem is that you and him believed everything the mainstream media told you. They're still misleading you on the facts of COVID. Once you stop watching mainstream news and start seeking out the many trusted and vetted independent news outlets, you'll start to learn that you've been duped by the mainstream outlets. Democracy Now, The Hill's "Rising" are a couple examples of non-biased news and political info
I really like that the interviewer lets Gene talk unlike many hosts who think that the guest's opinion and experience are worth less than theirs

He’s actually legit talented !

Gene is the best no matter what people say , he got serious wisdom about life , most other rockers are plain idiots
Haha except on covid where he turned into a deceived lefty doosh 😂 He supports the troops though, i’ll only give him that…
" Even the pope poops everyday" 🤣
Although I dont agree with everything hes say, but Genes got some solid wisdom.
Really? I guess it was wise to talk about sleeping with over 5000 women and degrading them and treating them like whores including his now wife.
Love you gene should run for president as you have a great work ethic.and you do great interviews can answer questions from people and speak from the heart ❤️
Naaah he should be Secretary of State.
Gene is totally brill.
You're right Gene love yourself that is what the bible says too have self confidence love you Gene and Shannon you had a great mother Gene
What?! Lol… the Bible doesn’t push the far lefty loser nonsense. WAKE UP!
I'm so distracted by his breathing. No one else hears that?
Yes, it’s so obvious. And the nose sniffling. I wonder if he has a cold or allergies.
Why do the protected need to be protected form the unprotected by forcing the unprotected to use the protection that didn't protect the protected in the first place?
More lefty loser nonsense. Gene listened to all of the wrong people…not so genius
Rich people are so scared of COVID. It must be amazing to be rich.
Nothing to do with being rich except maybe the smart one.

Gene isn't stupid.....he knows how to follow a "script".
.....his throat's dry an awful lot🤘💊
It sounds like he has a sinus infection. Trust me, he’s not on drugs
@@Ladywolf2263 I think you missed the point, LadyWolf. Gene isn't stupid 💊
But he was a stupid lefty doosh on covid lol
I have constant sinus infection 🤧 I can relate

Thanks Gene.
You have a very real perspective. Keep growing.
Nothing like being an "anti-establishment" rocker and sucking up to the government.
U r where you’re at, eating off whatever necro..& he’s at a place where u will never get to...
@@vicshrily And I care why?
You are right Necromonger. Unfortunately these narcissists are the all about the establishment. Notice how he's gasping for air from wearing the mask. He should be used to masks by now
Right! Rock N' Roll is supposed to be about rebellion & doing exactly the opposite that the establishment wants!
Agreed...
I used to think that Gene Simmons was an asshole. After watching this video I find it shocking that I agreed with everything he said and have changed my mind, although I still think he is arrogant. BTW, Sophie has the most beautiful voice and should be a major star!
Gene's an asshole for pushing the Covid spike vax & PC narrative. He's not stupid enough to believe what he's saying but he'll do anything for payola.
I think ABBA and KISS were the only Pop/Rockgroups who spent and invested their money wisely
ABBA is timeless.
He is absolutely correct when it comes to the demise of the music industry. File sharing, mp3s, streaming and now A.I. Killed music.
Gene interview awesome 😍
Awesome Interview
Why is it that he sounds like he is using O2 to breathe?
I think his nose is stuffed up.
the nose snorts are bizarre!!
unsettling to listen to. Hat and shades in a studio don't help.
gonna pull the plug on thisl, totally love that u r u........yay....
at least he admits hes not a great musician and what he does is show business rather than music and thats what people consume mostly, images and brands
Just remember, this is Paul Stanley’s band. No Paul, no Kiss.
Non PC gene is my favorite gene

Died of covid19 or died while having covid? There is a difference.

He was in a relationship with Cher so just say her name
Mr Cher, jew|sh gay-religion
Gene has been tricked lol…. I hope he APOLOGIZES to all of his followers!!!
Gene for VP....
Can you imagine? 😂😂😂

GENE SIMMONS IS THE AMERICAN DREAM
Holy Sh*t, he spews the same BS for 45 years.... its like a broken record.
I could do his interviews for him, practically verbatim. He DOES spew the same nonsense over and over.
Gene is the Man........$400 million 💰
1988 until today? Well there was a band called Nirvana, they sold a couple records... and how about Sublime, every white reggae/stoner band owes its sound to them. It gets harder after the early 90s fosho tho
Always enjoyed Gene, but that the cellphone industry / big players took out the record business, is pretty clear to me. But maybe he knows ?
He should run for a political office!! He is an inspiration.
Hell no, he sounds like a n@zi, the way he degraded people who chose not to have the shot.. That was a real shitty thing to say
He sounds like he has a cold
Yes miss simone stan gaga
Arrogance is so unattractive.
What the heck is Gene talking about half the time¿??? LOL
Gene?????those are the ones that back u up bud...Like i walk me....? hello...u 4 4 yeah....thank you....l
wannah listen to your daughter, that's beautiful sound...

Now he cares about health. Hilar' What about STDs in the 80's bub.
..& I betcha u did or do? lol

What does he care. Hes had herpes for decades. Peter Criss writes about him getting a massive breakout during the reunion tour.

..when gene Simmons falls asleep sittin' up on a plane, his long tongue hangs out and he drools all over his Belly.🤷
