Have you ever wondered where your soul goes after this life? We are sinners despite any tiny sins we commit like lying, bad thoughts, or cussing. It doesn't even matter how many good deeds we do because one little sin is bad enough already. We cannot make it up to heaven on our own will. Our God, Jesus Christ, decided to come down to Earth as a SINLESS human and sacrificed His life for our sins. Then He resurrected three days later! Therefore if you believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is your Savior, you'll definitely have eternal life. Your existence is proof that God is real. Consider this: A creation like you have a Creator. Only in the Bible does it mention that God is the Creator of mankind. God is the only one who can create your body, your organs, your features, your blood, and fingerprints. That is why nobody has the same finger prints nor DNA as you. YOU ARE UNIQUE THANKS TO OUR GOD, JESUS CHRIST! Have a great day!

Without Paul Stanley, kiss would have never made it. He is the engine, with so much talent. There’s a KZbin video, where he shows his guitar collection and it’s worth watching if your into guitars

[@TheJimbo1791]

Everything about this is perfect. The riff, the lyrics (yes), the video (yes). I just don´t get it that people do not understand that KISS IS SUPPOSED TO BE CHEESY. Kiss is made of cheesy lyrics, music, videos, faceprint, toys, tons of women half-naked and men acting like they are God-like Love-Guns. Kiss is just like a perfect b- movie: it is what it is but man it is FUN and it ROCKS even the dead dance to this freaking riff ! This is why Kiss is actually a legend, a true rock and roll icon, and totally belongs to the R&R hall of fame.

[@DaveK548]

If you enjoy half a tribute band and want a full tribute band, then check out some of the Kiss cover bands now. Some of them are way better than the business which is still known as “KISS”.

[@EL-bd2yb]

When I was little I loved Vinnie's pink guitar, years later I discovered that it was the signature model of Randy Rhoads, God have him in glory for his legacy and for being the mentor of many guitarists

[@AndrewWitmer-k6i]

This was the video where Kiss first "unmasked." After years of speculation, rumors and talk of performing without the costumes, it finally happened. This video was marketed on MTV for about 2 weeks before it was first played. You know, "don't miss Kiss' new video playing here first next Saturday", or something like that. However this time, no mention of "no costume." None of us Kiss fans were expecting it. I remember me and about 10 of my friends hanging out in the basement just to see the new video, and I had MTV in stereo back then, so all my friends were at my place. Although looking at the video now, we should have known something was different when the whole first stanza of the song did not show any of them above the waist... Then the camera panned up, and what a reaction out of all of us. After years of expecting it to "happen on the next album," we were not expecting anything. Yes Kiss, you definitely surprised us! Not just with a great new song, but with a great new look! Wow, those were the days!

[@StormLaker]

I remember as a 9 year old kid seeing this on MTV, and my aunt (an OG KISS fan from the 70's) telling us it was KISS on TV, and the denial my older sister and I had momentarily because our beloved KISS had removed their makeup and were unrecognizable to us. My sister was like 13-14 at the time. Nonetheless we got used to it through the 80s and early 90's, it was a different era for the band, they jumped on the 80's bandwagon for a while.

[@gordonmills2748]

Jeez, Vinnie's "solo." It's like they told him "okay, we want you to hold back on this song. No, not that. A little more. No, more. Okay...can you play a solo that Paul can handle if you get sick one night? Do that."

[@ata5855]

I was wondering about that... it almost sounds like "lay down a second rhythm guitar part, then overdub a solo later", but the solo never happened. And VV can rip, too.

[@poom641]

Gordon that is hilarious, i ain't even gonna listen to it tho LOL !

[@manlymcstud8588]

even when you're first learning to play guitar this song isn't exactly what you'd call difficult. i think there's a more complex chord progression in 'happy birthday to you'....
