Kiss - Strutter (Live On Letterman/2012)

[@alicewhitelhpw7517]

Yeah because he's guaranteed to get paid regardless 😂

[@toddvandell85]

"Unfazed" is the word you needed. Not "unphased". And Paul's voice sure sounded pretty fazed, even nearly 8 years ago in this older video. Hard for him to hit those notes anymore. He's not growing younger, so. Yeah, he got paid, and he still can dance like he always did. But the hips can be replaced. The vocal cords? Not so much.

Reconheço e admiro muito a história e a contribuição que Peter Cris e Eric Car tiveram na banda, porém, Eric Singer sem sombras de dúvidas é um baterista sensacional. Sempre fazendo o simples ficar difícil, embora ele persista em deixar o groove das músicas com a mesma escrita e do modo tradicional como as versão de studio gravadas pelo Peter, ele consegue por seu felling e técnica apurada nas músicas e, por incrível que pareça pra mim soa como sempre estivesse ouvindo pela primeira vez. Black Diamond, Detroit Rock City e I Was Made For Lovin' You ganham uma nova roupagem na mão do Eric quando são tocadas oa vivo. Sem sombra de dúvidas o Eric Singer é o melhor baterista da banda!

Uma das mais poderosas vozes do rock and roll está se esgotando, da mesma forma que aconteceu com Plant, Coverdale, entre tantos outros heróis que deram suas vidas para nos fazer sonhar e cantar juntos as suas canções. A idade chega pra todos e assim é a vida. One of the most powerful voices in rock and roll is running out, just like Plant, Coverdale, among so many other heroes who gave their lives to make us dream and sing their songs together. Age comes to everyone and so is life.

[@alteregos8949]

It’s a shame that the age is showing in his vocal chords. He’s been one of the top best sounding singers in the Rock N Roll genre for decades. I’m sure it’s killing him to lose that edge but as everything in life it all comes to an end. I’ve gotta give he and Gene credit for being in their 60’s and still rockin. Always were a favorite since the 70’s and my grandchildren will know and love them as I have over the years too. Rock wouldn’t be Rock without Kiss.

Nice Note at 0:21 Paul. Hey, it happens. Honestly, you can't expect a guy's voice, who's in his 60's, after singing tens of thousands of shows to be great. It's actually amazing they have lasted all this time. Wish it could have been with ACE too, and maybe Peter too if he could still play, but he was losing and lost his chops long ago.

And paul wont get replaced, unlike the rest of the members who got replaced he and gene started the band and paul is an absolute legend

[@Karinapugliese28]

Paul and Eric, carry the vocals. To many that don't know, Paul was born with only one ear working. A short Time ago he went through a surgical implant at the House Clinic that has given him electronic hearing in his other ear. When playing live it is still difficult for him adjusting to the two different sounds he is hearing in each of his ears. This is not his voice gone bad. Its his brain adapting to the differences in the ears. I think it demands applause!.

[@Metal_Horror]

Eh, no. Obviously his voice is cracking. He tries to get audience participation for that long, higher note that he *knows* is going to screw up the performance, but it's the worst possible audience to do that; this audience is here to see Letterman, so most people in attendance probably don't even know the song. That's interesting about his ear, though.

[@Laidtorest69]

What the heck happened here?? If he knew he sounded so bad why did he even schedule this? This is embarrassing

[@AlphaMachina]

He was 60 years old here. Give him a break. It's only embarrassing to you, because obviously he's doing it despite his issues, and just wants to put on a show for people who love their music. You have to understand that this was scheduled way in advance, and even when you're 20 years old, shit happens last minute, and you could lose your voice and still have to go out there and rock out with your codpiece out. They're lucky to still be alive in this business, much less still fucking rocking like that.

[@diningroomfish5470]

Paul and gene are 2 Jewish men, who will die on stage because it makes them money, kiss in the 70's and 80's kiss, was awesome i saw them 20 years ago, they were good, singing is very big part of the show, you can't do it no more, yet you still go out on stage, i feel bad for Paul

[@upstateSCairsofter]

I think it’s because they did a lot of touring from 2010-2012 and this was on the tail end. He was just strained, couple that with his age. I’ve been to two of their end of the road concerts and they were awesome but I do believe Paul uses backing tracks on some songs. Truthfully it’s unfortunate but I’d rather have that and still see him having fun on stage rather than cringing and realizing that one of my favorite rock stars has lost his voice. I love KISS still!

[@kilgoretrout3966]

Danny Miller Thy had their chance to go out on top with the "Farewell Tour". Yet again, addiction set in......Paul and Gene are addicted to attention. They live in a deluded state of self-absorbtion. i personally think Gene would stop now. Don't kid yourselves, Gene gets more interviews and camera time, but Mr. Eisen is in charge of KISS. Gene had remarked that he would play with the originals at the HOF....next day-Press Release from Paul, saying no dice. Why someone would embarrass theirself and their legacy with this fod is beyond me. i sing pretty well, but i still feel the stomach flutters, eve after 30 yrs. IF my voice was like that, i'd never step in front of a paying crowd, i'd find a new hobby.
