Earth, Kiss, and Fire - "I Was Made for Boogie Wonderland"

It is of course WAY more complicated than this. It always is. But its a lot like how white suburban parents hate rap. It isn’t that they hate black people, but the lack of empathy in addition to as well as coming from a lack of exposure to the culture, and they say they hate the music, which may be true and they may have good arguments for this, but it still stems from the same place as racism even if its totally unintentional.

I Was Made For Loving You is most assuredly NOT a disco tune. The Greasy Disco Bastards were just trying to steal another rock tune for their perverted, unholy uses. Boogie Wonderland? *TOTALLY* disco. Totally.

[@PoorBoyProductions660]

​@@Boppinabeit was though, Gene Simmons was dared to write a disco song after he claimed it was so easy anyone could do it and he wrote I Was Made For Loving You in, like, half an hour. Despite being a beloved part of their discography now, at the time, their fans thought they were selling out to Disco Fever when it was released and it was their least popular song at the time. They ended up rerecording it in the late eightes/early nineties and gave it more of a rock sound.

[@billjackson9702]

@@Boppinabe and yet Paul wrote in his book that after a night at Studio 54, he was of the opinion that he could easily write a 126bpm (disco) song. It's just a fact. And it worked. KISS was always about evolving and exploring ways to stay relevant to the music industry, no matter what the current state of the industry was. Just because they had an album with disco overtones doesn't mean they had become a disco band, any more than the album (Music from) The Elder meant that they were going to turn into Pink Floyd with facepaint. It was just an experiment. Granted, both albums threw curve balls to a LOT of KISS fans (myself included)....but it was just KISS being KISS. They survived, we (the fans) survived....no harm done. 😎

You made the KISS disco song into the ULTIMATE DISCO SONG!!!!!!

[@UANSTEMI]

This could be easily the greatest mix ever made. Seamless, flowless and utterly nostalgic. I was immediately transferred 44 years back in time. Great!!!

[@Bob.Roberts]

Holy Hell these two songs were made for each other.

[@MemoGrafix]

I am WOW. LOVE IT for the SEAMLESSNESS & PERFECT TIMING. Back in the 1970s I lived Upstairs from a white family, in Buffalo, NY. Me & the sons was around the same age & attended the same grade school. We had many arguments about My love of Disco, Soul, R&B, Etc. and their Love of Rock especially KISS. They tried to Clown Me for My _"Nggrr Music."_ I never clowned them. This was the one song I liked by Kiss, plus a few more. I heard them playing this song by Kiss/other Rock records daily. I wonder if they'll ever come across this BOMB ASS BLEND.

[@themarlboromandalorian]

That would have been a hell of a stage show.

[@thomtisher]

What kind of video editing wizardry is this?!?!?

[@ryansalwaysright]

The best kind. Been enjoying this man's mixup for years.

[@toddwebb7521]

Bill took his mixing board down to the crossroads at midnight and the rest is history

[@grazialombardo4455]

OMG THIS IS AWESOME!!!! I want it in my Spotify playlist to listen to it on loop😭❤️

[@markallen2984]

As usual, another flawless but eccentric McClintock mash-up.... One thing that this masterpiece finally addresses is the fact that "I Was Made for Loving You" always needed a longer guitar solo👍

[@Meyzen76]

At this point in their career, 8 seconds was all the time they would give Ace.

[@jimilove7773]

I always dug the punctuality of that Ace machine gun burst solo!

[@md6119]

@@Meyzen76 ...and it's not ace playing the solo... Ace played Guitar only in his songs on the dynasty album

[@Meyzen76]

@@md6119 Yes, you are correct. Forgot that album was a mish mash. Basically gene and paul with studio musicians. So in essence, Ace got 0 seconds on that one.

[@kimarajamison6951]

This is disco personified! Three of my childhood jams wrapped into one helluva mashup! Thank you so much!

[@5roundsrapid263]

@bubba burdle They were on Casablanca Records, a disco label. They hated doing the album, but the label had been begging them for years.

[@ADK_Project_41]

This is a masterpiece. One of the best mashups ever.

[@annaritaranalli1791]

Really and it is hard to making a mashup about two so different songs

[@josephashby3725]

Sounds so natural like it was meant to be!!!....

[@HiTekRedNek]

This was made for my wife! She loves both of these bands! Great job!!

[@ericskonberg5408]

As much as I admire Bill’s ability to mash music well its really the comedic timing of the music/video editing that has me equally, dancing, singing along/laughing so happily. Another gem. Bravo!

[@LegendoftheGalacticHero]

the whole is a masterpiece

[@DiceKinison]

if this were released as a single this week it would be #1 all summer long and the world would be a better place

[@therealanonymousartist]

This is the ultimate "good ending" for the war between Rock and Disco that existed in the 70s.

[@oz_jones]

[@FrederickObando]

It's not mash up, it's "audio-visual-song-alchemy"! And I'm absolutely here for it!

[@sapogato4518]

Another masterpiece from Bill McClintock to the world. Much appreciated.

[@lovelymilkymilky]

Man, hats off. Not just for the audio, but also the effort you put in making the visuals match up to the rhythm! Down to knie jerks and hand claps. Awesome.

[@dahawk8574]

...and for giving most of the rock solo to the disco guy.

[@lovelymilkymilky]

@@dahawk8574 hahahah, true!

[@Sdotinfinite23]

It took me a moment to realize both bands were not on the stage together.

[@SilenceManifests]

This is perfect! You know a mashup is good when you can close your eyes and not know the difference between one group and the other...

[@dreamland7661]

It would have been wonderful if they had done this crossover decades ago!!! IT WAS TOO PERFECT!!! ❤❤❤

[@doom-mantia]

I've been listening to your mashups for a while and have to appreciate how you make the mashup sound like an actual song and not just the sum of its parts. The little ad libs by Paul Stanley around 3:49 are a nice touch

[@bigdaddysshop8180]

YOU KNOW HE TAKES A LOT OF TIME ON THESE.

[@danicasteinhauser6742]

How do you not have over a million followers. All of your mashups are genius. This is a chef's kiss.

[@brentbartley6838]

No, it's a chef's KISS 👄

[@1号たか]

完璧なマッシュ・アップ！！素晴らしいの一言です！

[@christopherlove4188]

Once again Bill has shown us again that there is an unexploited genre of music called Heavy Soul. This is the right version of the Kiss song.

[@ronaldfink3605]

Awesome combination of two super bands. My wife and I love both groups and were blown away how seamlessly this music was put together. Would have paid top dollar back in the day to see this actually performed live. Great job Bill!

[@John-b6y5y]

Al McKay's and Ace Frehley's guitar solos are worth the price of admission alone. Both song came out around the same time, too!

[@thefilmschlock]

You know when a mashup is so good that all you can do is say “yes” as it continues

i'm sorry but paul stanely's vocals sound so AI generated

[@thefilmschlock]

@@Siromuse_2 Overused critique, usually used when it doesn’t sound AI at all. Similar to now.

[@Siromuse_2]

@@thefilmschlock it does tho. Compare this to the original studio recording of I was made for lovin you. You’ll notice how unnatural this one sounds

Wow this is amazing. Funk, Soul, Disco, & rock sounds so well together. The harmonies are such a vibe.

[@novacorps2468]

Just shows you how much those genres of music have in common and that they share similar roots

[@wesleyzimmerman3145]

Well, KISS DID write this song because they thought Disco was shit that anyone could write

[@seroogyw6238]

This would be a HIT right now if it was on the radio!! AWESOME VIDEO!! 🙏❤️

It's actually insane how well these songs work together.

[@SamTeLoCuenta]

I would love to hear this on the radio. A massive hit on its own right.

[@gking407]

If you played this in room filled with people who grew up with these bands I doubt a single person would recognize the mashup. This is greatness🤘🏽

[@wildwoodandonyx]

They’d definitely be dancing

[@Timberwolf69]

A few with a good internal music library (those that are able to hum/sing a song by the mentioning of it's title) with a wide enough variety to have all the featured songs in it will at least hesitate for a brief moment and raise an eyebrow while starting to dance. And enjoy this masterpiece with a broad grin on their face, acknowledging new developments with a little nod of the head.

[@PowerAndMight1984]

It blends so well together, you thought these two bands collaborated in the studio itself.
