Gene Simmons (The Demon) hates this song, performing it as well. He tells the story of when Paul was running the lyrics past him and he was into it until Paul got to the Do do do part. Gene wanted nothing to do with it. He still did anyway.
Kiss's "Sure Know Something" has a forward bass line, and an accessible sound. "I Want You" is a cool super 70s cut from Kiss, with a couple flavorful guitar solos, and great tom drum sounds
I have listened to this song a thousand times , and I never get tired of listening to it again - this is MAGIC only few songs have - you dancing while listening is THE BEST possible review !!!
Funny story: the main reason they released this song was because when they started, they were the very first act signed to a new label called Casablanca. Cut to about 5 years later, and not only is KISS one of the hottest acts in the rock world with a bunch of platinum albums, but Casablanca Records is also now the absolute Mecca for disco music in the US. Donna Summer, Cher, Village People, Lipps Inc, even legit funk acts like Parliament, they all signed to Casablanca. They used their huge disco cache to convince KISS (a pure arena rock act) to put a disco track on their next album, and it became one of their biggest-charting songs.
The way paul described it was he was fascinated by how popular disco songs were getting, even though most weren't that good. "I could write one of these in an hour". If I'm not mistaken, he said he wrote this the next day
Yes! My 2nd all-time fave rock band! Many purists diss them for doing a disco-flavored song; however, lead singer Paul Stanley was challenged that he couldn't write disco music. He wrote this song in less than an hour. Drummer Peter Criss is recognized as one of the great drummers in rock, so learning from him is a good idea. Thanks for your reaction.
From wikipedia: ""I Was Made for Lovin' You" draws heavily from the disco style that was popular in late-1970s United States. According to legend, the members of the band were in conflict with their producers, who wanted the band to shift to a more commercial sound. In response, the band argued that lucrative disco songs could be written by anyone in a short time frame. The story goes that the song's demo was completed in mere hours after the bet."
One more good reaction. If you want any suggestions of their songs to react to, here they are: "Lick it up" (Kiss without masks for the 1st time); "All Hell's breakin' loose"; "Heaven's on fire"; "I love it loud"; "Rock and Roll All Nite"; and the beautiful ballad "Forever".
This is considered to be Disco by KISS, One Disco song and Yes it becomes a HIT. But really now, It's not a bad song and I even danced to it in a disco back in the 70's, But I really like there harder music. I even saw them in concert in 1977. No whip, supposed to be Laser Beam.
The story I've heard about making this song was that Paul Stanley (who sings this one) wrote it because he was told by someone from the record label Kiss was signed with that nobody wanted to hear Kiss do a disco tune; that said, I also heard a version where Paul made the comment that disco was so simple that anybody could whip up a tune in no time flat - so he then had to back up his claim. Either way, it's a massive departure from the driving rock which the band is best noted for.
I've heard Paul say the latter. Disco is mindless dance beat music... Kiss isn't exactly the greatest at musical excellence (though they were gods on stage) so Disco should have been and was a slam dunk. I fear the hangover from it caused Unmasked and The Elder to be as awful as they were though. Hopefully Millie does more 70's Kiss, but also they were a lot of fun in the 80's and early 90's.
PLEASE check out the video for "Sure Know Something' next! It was recorded/filmed on the same day as this video was,and then go back and watch and react to more earlier 70's era live KISS performances,especially from 1976-1978 during KISS's classic glory years.
Kiss was into making money & really didn't care how they made it. They were open about it & made no apologies for it. Gene Simmons stated this in the rockumentary " Heavy, the Story of Metal" from VH1. It can be found on RUclips now in the 4 individual parts. If you like heavy metal & want to know it's history, it's a must watch!
@@johnmcinally8966 The mystery makeup, stage shows and marketing made them. When compared to the band's you mentioned They are just so so. In reality that is! I do still like a few of their heavier tunes.✌
That's not a whip you're hearing, even though it sounds like it. Peter Criss is striking his wooden drumsticks against the aluminum framework for one of the drums, and there's a microphone set up to pick up the sound.
Awesome reaction video for an awesome song. Lol, I loved your reaction to "the whips". As an Ace fan, I probably have a bias. But you were asking whose make-up you should wear. You would look awesome in Ace's. The silver. The white. The black. Great combination for face make-up. Please do a reaction video for 'Detroit Rock City' or 'I Love It Loud' (with the original lineup). Thx!
When KISS did this song they were trying to impress the peers and the critics, and actually they weren't really a band at that point, they were just four guys running a muck. It was one member thinking he knew what was best for the band. It wasn't to long afterwards that the original band seen in this video started to break up and wouldn't reunite until 1995 on MTV Unplugged.
Did you know a friend of Paul Stanley made a bet that he couldn't make a song out of this kind Disco music I guess Paul Stanley won the bet because it became a 1 number hit everywhere I still listen to this song considering the music style KISS made it work
This song is an outlier from the typical KISS songs. (Apparently they did more disco songs, but I haven't heard them yet).There were many fans who hated the song and others who loved it. I had no issues w/ it. It's a good song. Love it. Anyway, check out some classic KISS rock songs and their ballads too (I love those. Start w/ Beth). Ace Frehley was known for his unique guitars that lit up and had pyrotechnics (fire, smoke, etc.) going on while playing.
this was filmed in Las Vegas in 1959, after Simmons & Stanley Raided Zsa Zsa Gabor's closet and busbyed and berkeleyed themselves to somewhere south of needles. Ca
This was their only "Disco" Song, co-written by Paul Stanley (Starchild). Gene Simmons (the Demon) Hates this Song. The Light up Guitar and battery pack weighed over 40 lbs. (18 Kilos). For a Soft KISS Ballad, Peter Criss (the Cat) co-wrote and sang "Beth". It's still performed onstage today by whomever the Band's current drummer is. WORTH a listen. THERE'S A RUclips VIDEO Where Gene shows you how to put on the "Demon" Makeup... Using his Daughter (Sophie) as the Model!
When Kiss was signed to Casablanca Records in 1974, their label head Neil Bogart used to make bubblegum pop records on his previous label... Besides Kiss, he signed mostly funk and disco artists like Parliament Funkadelic and Donna Summer... but Kiss was his first band to break big commercially in 1975. As disco music took off in 1976/ '77... Casablanca Records became the premiere disco label and sold millions of records by the late 70's. By 1978, Kiss was going through a bit of crisis as drugs and egos were clashing between the 4 members... A Kiss movie was rather poorly received and Ace Frehley (lead guitar) and Peter Criss (drums) wanted to leave Kiss... A compromise was reached - all 4 members would record solo albums under complete creative control, and they would each be released w/ the Kiss logo... The records sold well - over half million each, but Neil Bogart pressed 1 million copies of each record to distributors... So, out of 4 million pressed, nearly 2 miillion records were returned unsold... It was a huge financial setback. In the meantime, Paul Stanley was partying in Studio 54 enjoying the disco scene... Gene Simmons was trying to get his own record label going, and dating Cher in his personal life... Ace and Peter were drowning in alcohol and addictions by that point. Finally, the 4 members decided to work on a new Kiss album in 1979... Ace Frehley demanded more songs on the record, and Peter Criss demanded that his solo album producer Vini Poncia do the album. They felt like disco was commercially huge, so that was the road to take... Ace did not like that direction and did a rocking cover of the Rolling Stones' "2000 Man"... as well as 2 of his songs. Kiss rehearsed the album 'Dynasty', but when Peter Criss came in the studio to do the drums, he couldn't play proficiently... the producer sent Criss home and had session drummer Anton Fig play on the record (Criss played on his 1 song - "Dirty livin' ") even if Peter Criss was on the cover and in music videos... Apparently, Criss played so badly on tour in '79 that he was excluded from the next Kiss disco album 'Unmasked' in 1980 (Anton Fig played all the drums on that record). Eric Carr (drums) did the 1980 tour... When Kiss went on tour in 1979, they discovered that they had become family entertainment... Kiss was now dressed in capes and colorful sequins and had alienated their hardcore rock fans. As a result, their shows were no longer selling out in the US even though Kiss were huge overseas.
In the movie Detroit Rock City a girl jokes about Kiss doing a disco song because Disco was so popular and the Kiss fans were adamant it would never happen
There was a real culture war going on between rock and disco fans at the time of this song's release. KISS took a lot of flack from their fans and their detractors for selling out to disco. This was merely the beginning of a decades long sell out/off.
Great reaction kiss has alot of great songs you should checkout world without heros, firehouse, strutter, Duce, Beth, black Diamond, hotter then hell, this is just some that came yo mind right away
Listen to The Breeders, not even on the channel just listen to them, trust me Millie, this is great advice, listen to huffer, divine hammer and cannonball, I'm sharing wisdom with you
This was meant as a joke. Paul Stanley wanted to prove how easy it is to write a disco song, so this song is an outlier for Kiss. This is one of the largest catalogs in music, so..... From seventies glam rock to eighties melodic 'hair' metal, with different guitarist and drummer, to the hybrid of the nineties and two thousands. The five no make up albums from eighty-three to ninety, plus the last make up album just before it are by far the best written, played, and produced albums.
This comment has nothing to do witk kiss. Based on your liking for Floyd's Great Gig in the Sky, I suggest that you react to Eivør's "Trodlabundin" - the version performed halfway up the side of a Norwegian fjord - and/or Falling Free - the live version from Torshavn. She's from the Faroe Isles and has a voice like nothing I've heard for years (if ever). The two songs are quite different but equally captivating/mesmerising.
You're missing a reaction to 2021 in a song by Inutilismo. You will fall in love. The guy sings, plays everything in the rock version of the best songs of the year.
In the mid-late 70's when KISS was huge, I was in Jr. High and everyone was praising them, I just could not get into them. I just could not get into all the kabuki make-up and costumes that they wore and they theatrics like Gene Simmons spitting blood. But I did like some of their songs like this one. Probably my favorite of theirs is "Beth".
Exactly.....we lived parallel lives. When my buddies went to their concert in 1976 i said nope.....the only band that all four of didnt see in our jr high and high school years, and we never would miss a show, that was our indentity.
Yes this is disco, because as i remember the story goes someone told Paul that making a disco hit was hard. so they did this song to show it wasn't that hard. THe band is rock n roll though. this is a one off.
🤣🤣😅 You are right! This is a DISCO song! --Me and all Kiss fans , thougt : "This was the way to go" I was wrong! After the "Dynasty" record , I lost interest : There were so many other bands coming up , at that time... 🙂
Yes, usually Kiss is about hard rock - not all that brutal though, like many think who only know them from their makeup 🙂 But it's always very catchy, and easy to appreciate. Their 70s makeup era is a hard rock mixture of rock'n'roll, glam and pop. Between 1983-96, they performed without makeup and became more of a hair metal band. Didn't matter much, still brilliant. Through all eras, the leaders and mainstays of the band has been Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons. Paul is the "Starchild", with the unbelievable soulful vocals and who also plays rhythm guitar. (Check out the songs from the 1987 "Crazy nights" album to find out where he peaked as a singer. The notes he hit are absolutely unbelievable.) Gene is the "demon" on bass and lead vocals on certain songs - mainly the ones he himself has written. The other two you see here are lead guitarist Ace Frehley, who was and is very popular with the fans but his time(s) in the band have been very problematic, mainly due to his alcoholism. He originally left in 1982. Drummer Peter Criss is actually not the one you hear playing drums on this song. His playing had at this poiint deteriorated horribly, due to cocaine abuse among other things, and the band secretly let Ace's friend Anton Fig play drums on all but one song in total on their two 1979-1980 albums. In 1980, Criss left more or less willingly. Both he and Ace have returned later so the band could make nostalgia money, but at this point it's very unlikely that any of them will ever play with Kiss again. Even if Kiss do not split up after their next tour, as they have announced that they will. "I was made for loving you" exists mainly because Paul Stanley loved disco dancing in the late 70s. Gene on the other hand is a purist rocker and doesn't like the song, even though it's his basslline that mainly drives it. Gene does not refuse to play it. however - he's way to smart to not play a song that he knows is popular with the fans, and this is arguably their biggest hits ever. Even if - or maybe that's just the reason - it is also hated by other fans, who like Gene are rock purists.
KISS were pretty much done at this point. The initial hysteria was over, they were cashing in at this point. None of the members liked each other, if they ever did in the first place, it was a mess.
KISS were primarily rock. This is the ONLY "disco" song they made. FYI; Gene *hates* this song. He has said so in interviews. In case you didn't know, Gene is the bass player (the demon)
Milli! I Love You!! This is a great song in its own right, but... , not representative of KISS. It was a one-off venture into Disco. To get a better feel for KISS and what they're all about, I would try **DETROIT ROCK CITY (Live)** Cheers!
If you think Paul Stanley could hit high notes, that's nothing compared to what Barry Gibb of the BeeGees could do. Listen to their song - Too Much Heaven sometime. Good review too!
If you want a good live performance to react to of them playing rock, I recommend any or all of these 3 songs they sang in 1975 on The Midnight Special: She, Deuce and Black Diamond.🎸
Gene Simmons (The Demon) hates this song, performing it as well. He tells the story of when Paul was running the lyrics past him and he was into it until Paul got to the Do do do part. Gene wanted nothing to do with it. He still did anyway.
He said he would do it with an entire building doing it
Paul wrote this to show he could write a disco song...this is off of the album Dynasty.
Kiss's "Sure Know Something" has a forward bass line, and an accessible sound. "I Want You" is a cool super 70s cut from Kiss, with a couple flavorful guitar solos, and great tom drum sounds
I have listened to this song a thousand times , and I never get tired of listening to it again - this is MAGIC only few songs have - you dancing while listening is THE BEST possible review !!!
Story has it that the lighted guitar played by Ace weighed 42 lbs ... over40 years ago ... different technology.
💯True. 🇮🇹🇧🇪🇪🇺
Yeah, nowadays they could use an OLED screen or an array of LEDS and not add any weight to the guitar at all.
42lbs equal 19kg... its crazy ....
150 light bulbs, i heard. Unconfirmed. Cannot remember where i read that
Kiss started my rock journey when I was young ..This song is awesome

Gene Simmons hated disco songs, but wrote and recorded disco songs for Kiss, like 'Charisma'... "She's so European" 😂
Yay! More please! Check out any one or preferably all of the three Midnight Special clips from 1975! THAT'S classic KISS! :)
I had to laugh as she needed 5 secs to process that love sentence "in the darknes theres so much I wanna do.." loool :D

the song with which they proved that they are not afraid of experiments or the anger of fans who hate disco! ❤superhit!
My favorite 4 bar guitar solo.
I always say that that is the best shortest guitar solo ever!!!!!
Wow, another reaction to a metal band..... Love this😊❤️
Kiss was mostly in the genre of glam rock which included some elements of disco and other types of rock music.
Love this disco era Kiss vibe...they do great rock music too.
Nobody can take away what Paul Stanley did with Kiss. He was a great singer , no matter what anyone think of Kiss. HE was a great singer!
MILLIE YOU ARE SO PRETTY
Do another 'Disco' song by KISS titled; God of Thunder ... Live - 1976 or 1977.
This is a great disco era song, KISS keeping up with the times.
Saw Kiss in 70's. Awesome
Anton Fig played the drums on this album (except "Dirty Livin'")
Be the Starchild for Halloween
なつかしいー高校生の頃思い出すよ、ポールスタンレー大好きだったなーまだ彼らはご健在なんだよねー日本でのLIVEは、行ってますよ😊😊😊😊🎸🎸🎸
Jajajaj vienbenida a Nuestra era Ahora nos llamas viejos solo por LA dead en Los 70 y 80 tanbien We Rock the world
The best rock song of all time
👍👍💯💯
Legendary group
Their one foray into disco, like Rod Stewart doing the disco song "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" Check out "I Wanna Rock and Roll All Night".
I held that lighted guitar when I worked for him
So many went n’ cut a disco song back then. Rod Stewart with “Do ya think I’m sexy” and The Stones had “Miss You” and so on
The real fun is this song was written on a bet and became a legendary hit.
Overated band no where need as good as purple,Sabbath.zepplin

you might like their 1985 song "Tears are falling" and you can see them out of make up and armor in that one.

Before Kiss ,Gene and Paul were a lounge act , they sang all sorts of music.

The Light up Guitar and battery pack weighed over 40 lbs. (18 Kilos).

This song was co-written by Desmond Child.
seen them in concert , it was epic. you need to check out the song Beth by kiss
rock disco années 80 ,la bonne époque musicale 😊😊👍👍
That whip sound is the drummer hitting the rim
Another great piece of Rock history, Gorgeous Millie
Special band no doubt, timeless!

As a teenage kid growing up in the 70's Kiss lost all remaining cred they had left after they did this one
Temazo
In the mid-late 70's when KISS was huge, I was in Jr. High and everyone was praising them, I just could not get into them.

Try another KISS song. God of Thunder. Please use the one from the album Destroyer
Kiss "Sure know something"
Yes this is disco, because as i remember the story goes someone told Paul that making a disco hit was hard. so they did this song to show it wasn't that hard. THe band is rock n roll though. this is a one off.
Me extrana que no haigas reaccinado a The Warning, estas chicas Mexicanas estan conquistadors El mundo con su talento. No te vas arrepentir
🤣🤣😅 You are right! This is a DISCO song! --Me and all Kiss fans , thougt : "This was the way to go" I was wrong! After the "Dynasty" record , I lost interest : There were so many other bands coming up , at that time... 🙂
Grande Kiss ahhh me vengooooooooo 🙊😍🔥
Yes, usually Kiss is about hard rock - not all that brutal though, like many think who only know them from their makeup 🙂 But it's always very catchy, and easy to appreciate. Their 70s makeup era is a hard rock mixture of rock'n'roll, glam and pop. Between 1983-96, they performed without makeup and became more of a hair metal band. Didn't matter much, still brilliant. Through all eras, the leaders and mainstays of the band has been Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons. Paul is the "Starchild", with the unbelievable soulful vocals and who also plays rhythm guitar. (Check out the songs from the 1987 "Crazy nights" album to find out where he peaked as a singer. The notes he hit are absolutely unbelievable.) Gene is the "demon" on bass and lead vocals on certain songs - mainly the ones he himself has written. The other two you see here are lead guitarist Ace Frehley, who was and is very popular with the fans but his time(s) in the band have been very problematic, mainly due to his alcoholism. He originally left in 1982. Drummer Peter Criss is actually not the one you hear playing drums on this song. His playing had at this poiint deteriorated horribly, due to cocaine abuse among other things, and the band secretly let Ace's friend Anton Fig play drums on all but one song in total on their two 1979-1980 albums. In 1980, Criss left more or less willingly. Both he and Ace have returned later so the band could make nostalgia money, but at this point it's very unlikely that any of them will ever play with Kiss again. Even if Kiss do not split up after their next tour, as they have announced that they will.
"I was made for loving you" exists mainly because Paul Stanley loved disco dancing in the late 70s. Gene on the other hand is a purist rocker and doesn't like the song, even though it's his basslline that mainly drives it. Gene does not refuse to play it. however - he's way to smart to not play a song that he knows is popular with the fans, and this is arguably their biggest hits ever. Even if - or maybe that's just the reason - it is also hated by other fans, who like Gene are rock purists.
KISS were pretty much done at this point. The initial hysteria was over, they were cashing in at this point. None of the members liked each other, if they ever did in the first place, it was a mess.
KISS were primarily rock. This is the ONLY "disco" song they made. FYI; Gene *hates* this song. He has said so in interviews.
In case you didn't know, Gene is the bass player (the demon)
Kiss symphony-Deuce
Millie te amo
React to kiss rock and roll all night that's what kiss really sounds like
I think if you want to paint your like one of them it should be the drummer (the cat)
Ah the bass. Not played by Gene but played by Paul Stanley. Peter Criss only played drums on one song. KISS were pretty fractured by this point.
luv ur stuff. and ur accent.. plus ur cute. :)
Milli! I Love You!! This is a great song in its own right, but... , not representative of KISS. It was a one-off venture into Disco. To get a better feel for KISS and what they're all about, I would try **DETROIT ROCK CITY (Live)** Cheers!
Paul Stanley vocal, Ace Frahley guitar and i forgotten ...😂
If you think Paul Stanley could hit high notes, that's nothing compared to what Barry Gibb of the BeeGees could do. Listen to their song - Too Much Heaven sometime. Good review too!
Hello beautiful Millie
Frog Leap Studios did a cover of this song which should be reacted to on this awesome channel.
If you want a good live performance to react to of them playing rock, I recommend any or all of these 3 songs they sang in 1975 on The Midnight Special: She, Deuce and Black Diamond.🎸
If you like whips, you need to react to "Whip It" by Devo! 🙃
Hi Millie can I suggest a band for you the jam they are a UK band from the early 80"s
Morning sunshine I met Paul and Gene ❤😮love and besitos
My brother was big fan he drew poster of kiss ❤1st place for destroyer ljs 😮❤
If you're going to paint your face then as a bass player you have to do the demon paint of Gene Simmons......would be good Halloween show
Kissco!
