Ten Worst Kiss Songs

[@Arttheclown1981]

Peter Criss solo is growing on me , love it

[@PaulaXism]

It's always the one I have seen the merit in. Musically interesting and sometimes with a touch of Zappa.. Something Kiss related I can actually listen to all the way through without feeling the need to throw something at it.. FYI I'm not a Kiss fan at all.. tired glam rock that should have been forgotten in the 70's IMHO but hey.. whatever.

[@cryptoinvestorcryptoinvest5542]

I like Peter Criss’s solo album as well. Paul’s is my favorite. Ace’s is a close second. Gene’s has some great songs on it but as an album it’s not very good.

[@tomerdahl9867]

I love “Dance All Over Your Face”. Great groove. The rest of your choices would definitely be in my bottom 20%. Before I watched this I thought “There’d better be at least three songs from ‘Hot in the Shade’.” You didn’t let me down, brother.

[@ghostpasha9076]

Hot in the Shade is just awful in a forgettable way

[@bannersvault3102]

Man, I love that video. You explain your points clearly and they make sense whether we agree or not. I've been a Kiss fan since around 1990 and I side with you on some of these. I have no problems with ''Beth 2'' (Psycho Circus was definitely trying to be Destroyer 2) and Odyssey really sounds like Paul was vocally prepping for The Phantom but I still like it. I remember hating Do you love me for a while but came around when Unplugged came out. My list would probably have Love em Leave em (don't care for it) and Love is like a slap in the face ( I think Hot in the shade would be a better album if Love is like a slap in the face, Read my body and maybe two others weren't on it.) Nice video man, I just suscribed.

[@SteelViko]

I like the editing style on this one! Super cool how you show footage of the vinyl spinning during clips of the music. That's a very nice touch.

[@SeanBlumenshine]

Thank you very much! I figured it was a fun alternative to showing footage of the band which I am now scared to do lol.

[@SteelViko]

@@SeanBlumenshine It was a great idea! I think it worked really well! Yeah, KZbin has been taking down a lot of Kiss footage lately. Gotta be careful. There is sometimes even danger in using just the music as well.

[@RobertWilkinsonJKekMaloy]

@@SeanBlumenshine when reporting the news, no one should fear repercussions of their subject.

[@JeffMcCormack777]

I'm one of those that really like The Elder, but admittedly, not a great Kiss album in comparison to their catalog, but I dig the album in general looking past what we "expect" from Kiss. I think I may make a similar video to this, it would be interesting to try to really pick ten least favorites on purpose. I don't think I have ever taken a real critical look at stuff, I just sit back and enjoy them usually.

[@codacreator6162]

Agree. And I think taking any of the tracks out of context diminishes the track. Leave Music from the Elder out of the lineup, and I might be inclined to agree with the list.

[@turnsufficient4971]

The Elder is the Destroyer album - Part II on steroids. Great Expectations and Beth were loaded with orchestral sounds etc... The Elder has a speed metal song "The Oath" -- heavy heavy haunted song "Under the Rose" -- a super awesome, typical Ace Frehley song "Dark Light" --- and on and on --- you're assessment is way off.

[@turnsufficient4971]

The Elder album is phenomenal - KISS blew it by putting out two crappy disco albums in a row and lost lots of fans. They make an album of phenomenally structured and written music and it b ombs, bc they lost so many fans - most didn't give it a chance. It was the last KISS I ever bought, bc they hit their music pinnacle and they couldn't top The Elder - and haven't surpassed it yet.

[@the_manmachine]

I think "Mr.Blackwell" is the worst KISS song ever ....

[@JeffMcCormack777]

@@the_manmachine or reminds me of something that would fit on Gene's solo album

[@DaP84]

Love theese kinda things! Made that Spotify playlist years ago, called "Kiss - least good". I'll post my version before watching. Mine has following songs (and many Kiss fans will think I'm crazy with certain entries): "Love Theme From Kiss", "Love 'Em And Leave 'Em", "Any Way You Want It", "Dark Light", "Mr. Blackwell", "Down On Your Knees", "No No No", "Bang Bang You", "Little Caesar", "Boomerang", "When Lightning Strikes" and "Outta This World"

[@hopparezimi4155]

Oh NO, NO, NO man!!! Youve chosen MY FAVORITE SONGS!!! No No No isnt that but I DO LOVE "Down On Your Knees", and "Any Way You Want It"! By the way "Any Way You Want It" is one of great songs by Dave Clark Five and I think that is just a joke-cover even though they lliked or hated the original its pretty cool. But "Down On Your Knees" is my personal top hit song from my childhood, so please take it back as soon as its possible! Thx. Sean I agree with you. Youre right there are some worse KIϟϟ songs. I LOVE Elder...and Odyssey's my favorite...but I heared many ppl dont think so.

[@DaP84]

@@hopparezimi4155 😁Ooops lol. Okay, Anyway You want It has a bunch of charm actually, and is quite catchy. Depends on my mood. Down On You Knees always pure trash though haha. I also love Music from the Elder for the most part, Odyssey is magical! So is Under the Rose and I'm Just A Boy to name a few

[@aaronshoaf4644]

Definitely wouldn’t have No, No, No, Little Caesar, or Outta This World as top 10 worst KISS songs.

[@OptimisticCynic715]

I remember liking "Rip and Destroy" from Phantom.

[@CathyLahn]

Excellent list. I'm an original 1970s KISS fan, so your list pleases me greatly. For me, there's just no use for anything past 1983. And I could easily make this a Top 20 or 30. But this "Top 10 Worst" is right on the button. I don't think I would have, even, a Top 3 for the great 70s KISS. Nice job, Sean. Marc ⚡

[@turnsufficient4971]

Oddessy is phenomenal as was the Elder album - the songs were incredible. The Elder is like Destroyer II on steroids. "Once upon, not yet, only know some day - countless stars we met - we met along the way..."

[@maikcolinnait4641]

Oddyssey, the greatest KISS song ever!!! ( And Paul voice is amazing!)

[@annielanham-vn2ov]

I just discovered, bout 20 min ago...Odyssey is a cover! Look it up...I remember when this album came out...I DID NOT KNOW THIS

[@maikcolinnait4641]

@rockarchiveschannel9390 Pauls version of Oddysey yes, blows away the original, and Pauls voice is main on it. Pauls could sing opera lyric in strong way, he´s a master.

[@JJSS-vg1qs]

I can't believe there are people that LOVE The Elder? Seriously? 😂

[@turnsufficient4971]

[@ZE4MC]

Great video- pretty much agree with you not only on the songs but your take on Kiss in general. Huge Kiss fan- but depth of lyrics is hit and miss and they would be cancelled if they made some of these today.

[@nville8795]

Fantastic video. I really enjoyed it. I'm glad I stumbled across your channel, I'm now subscribed.

[@Goddzi]

Hi, Sean! It appears you’re correct about the YT algorithm in relation to “negativity” lol Interesting video. I’m a sizeable KISS fan so figured I would chime in with my thoughts on some of your choices… I actually like Murder in High Heels and Dance All Over Your Face. But I have the opinion that The Elder would’ve made more sense if Manowar had recorded it 🤘🏻 (I admit though, I have only ever listened to that album once. Ever! I couldn’t bring myself to do it a second time) Anyway, as I said, interesting video. You got a new sub. Can’t wait to see what else you have done/will do next 👍🏻

[@whosoever9198]

The way you feel about the Peter Criss solo, I feel about The Elder.

[@rticle15]

I can agree with every song on this list. I remember having Animalize, Lick it Up, and Asylum on cassette and having to fast forward through those songs. And that demo of Love's a Deadly Weapon is so much better than the album version.

[@mattskustomkreations]

Paul was trying to sing in a tragic style. The results were….tragic.

[@fakenews3911]

I only listen to kiss albums from 1973 to 1983.The rest i gave away.

[@shandonsahm3343]

Yep 👍

[@FortressofShred]

Likewise, I only care about the stuff with Ace

[@sueminter5152]

That would be 1974 to 1984.

[@conorbutler4808]

You missed out on some good albums and songs by kiss after '83

[@jdenney79]

I would agree, with REVENGE being the only exception.

[@olivertoeknuckleiii2093]

The Peter Criss songs were actually my favorite KISS songs. “Hooligan,” “Hard luck woman” and “Baby Driver” are hard rock classics!

[@falconater68]

I never looked into it but I always felt Hooligan was written by Gene or Paul for Peter, insulting in that light if you listen.

[@SicillianmanDon]

Hooligan is a great song, why his solo album surprised me, he seemed to sing the edgier songs and then he made an album of blah lol

[@Eddie-uf6bs]

Peter has a good voice

[@DaP84]

He was refering to solo album material of Criss

[@derralle5705]

​@@falconater68wow, now that would have been mean. So I looked it up and was relieved it was really written by Criss and Penridge

[@nealwoolrich7431]

Great video Sean. From the 70s I'd add Love Theme From Kiss, Kissin Time, Then She Kissed Me. Their super fast songs were usually misses - I'd add No, No, No to that list.

[@richgrasby5294]

Totally agree with each and every one of these you mentioned

[@robertweaver5285]

Hi Sean! Another really good list. I am one of those people that could not stand the majority of the albums that were released in the '80s. Quite a dry spell. In my opinion, if you took all of the hits from the '80s and created one album, it would have really rocked! It's hard to really tell which album I hated the most, Hot in the Shade, Asylum, or Crazy Nights. I do remember liking Animalize, but I guess I'm going to have to blow the dust off of those CDs and re-listen to them with your take due to your video and see where my judging in 2023 opinion comes in at.

[@kingfisher-theemptinessout3582]

I love this video. Mainly because I only agree with you on two or three songs. Some are even favourites to me. But when I hear your motivation I’m like ‘Yeah, I hear you. I even agree with you on some points.’ I would have added other songs. Probably the whole Sonic Boom and Monster albums too. The only Kiss albums I never bought. I love the eighties Kiss, but they definitely were kings in putting fillers in the albums too. But the really great songs stand out. Cool video!

[@macdaddybender]

I was a teen in the late 80s, so my first album was actually Smashes, Thrashes & Hits. Bar Music From The Elder, I owned all the KISS albums up until Hot In The Shade. Although the golden era ended after Unmasked for me. So, long story short, I agree with you because those early albums are just the best

[@Awesomemusic19]

Entertaining because of how articulate and well thought out your opinions are. Also, I agree with basically all these pics. You got a new sub 🤙

[@SeanBlumenshine]

Glad you enjoyed! Thank you so much!

[@thomasfield398]

Dude!!!! Odyssey is one of my very favorite kiss songs! Sure it’s not rock and roll or hard edge so much but what an amazing song. A masterpiece in my opinion. The elder itself with the exception of Mr Blackwell and escape from the island is an absolute masterpiece. But with Bob Ezrin at the helm, what else would one expect anyway?

[@eaaivazian]

Hell, no! I love MR. BLACKWELL. It's got one of my favorite Ace solos ever. :)

[@endeaver7954]

SO...this guy picks odyssey? over just a boy??? what?

[@Dave-Rough-Diamond-Dunn]

I, and Mr Blackwell were the most 'KISS' songs of the whole album!

[@eaaivazian]

@@Dave-Rough-Diamond-Dunn Yup. I especially like MR. BLACKWELL. I think it was an older composition that he re-tooled for THE ELDER. It's got such a dirty, funky riff. It's both got a classic Kiss riff and also feels very unique. With different lyrics (non-conceptual), it would have fit well on earlier albums or even CREATURES quite well.

[@eaaivazian]

@@endeaver7954 Indeed. I'm not saying ODYSSEY is the greatest Kiss song ever...but it's a lot better than JUST A BOY, which is really cheesy. ODYSSEY has its cheesy moments (Paul is a little too melodramatic in his vocal performance) but it has a nice arrangement and really nice chords. The piano work is excellent.

[@michaelpayne8000]

The 70s is where KISS rocked, I've always loved Destroyer the best, then Love Gun and then Alive and Alive 2 followed by Rock and Roll Over, Dressed To Kill and then Dynasty ..🎸😁👍🤘

"Filler songs", but some of them is still memorable and still unique even today. "Love's a Deadly Weapon"..Always liked this one. It's kind of the only "Power Metal'ish" song Kiss ever made.

Spot on w/ Boomerang... I also love that you got in those two horrific ballads about a year apart in 97 and 98... I tend to like a lot of the 80's KISS - so the fact that I would have some other songs would be just based on opinion alone... But I love Odyssey... I like many of the other songs - Murder in High Heels, etc... What did you miss??? I Will Be There from COS??? There are a few other turds... But I did like your video and your research shows... Burn Bitch Burn doesn't get a mention??? I happen to dig that riff a LOT...

[@menippean1]

Great video. Choices are well explained and the arguments well informed.

[@AQMusic10]

Great list. There’s definitely some clunkers in the catalog. I’ll be honest, there’s some songs that I secretly like, but I might be embarrassed if someone catches me listening to them. I sent you an email with a question and I would appreciate if you could respond if you have the time. Keep up the great work..

[@soulbrother5435]

Kinda ironic. In 70s KISS critics called them style over substance band, but they became like that only after they took make up off. The Kulick line up had looks, could deliver amazing live show but songs just werent there. The only no make up era album that I like is probably Revenge

[@DrTomoculus]

I bailed on KISS after Unmasked. When the only thing left for credibility with them was soon leaving with Ace Frehley. I was around 12/13. 1. Simmons had been dialing it in since at least 1975's Dressed To Kill. You can't beat what he contributes to KISS and Hotter Than Hell. In fact, if Hotter Than Hell had been recorded and mixed like Dressed To Kill OR KISS, I'd consider it the best album they ever put out. Everyone's contributing gold, Simmons, Stanley and Frehley are all giving good to great songs on Hotter Than Hell. There's no dropoff. Then you get to Dressed To Kill. This is where Paul Stanley has to pick up the slack when Simmons or Frehley don't have material that's beyond "Filler." And unfortunately Paul Stanley writes a lot of filler. "Love Her All I Can" is gold. "Rock Bottom" is great. Everything else he wrote on the album, is just kinda eh. But Simmons, beyond "She", isn't writing anything worthy of "Deuce" or "Watchin' You" here. And Frehley's "Getaway" is probably the Frehley song that rarely gets mentioned. The Criss vocal is great (he should have been their main singer) and the solo kicks ass, but the song is no Parasite, or Cold Gin, or Rocket Ride. Simmons started dialing it in on Dressed To Kill. On Destroyer he sets out to prove he's "more than just a tongue" (which he tried to prove again on his solo album. I personally call him a "sleazy genius". There's a guy there that has a lot of songwriting talent beyond his "image." But ... he can't escape that image.) Everything after Destroyer, is Gene just raking in the spoils (but they did work seriously hard to get where they wanted to go). Sometimes you'll get an Almost Human. Or a Christine Sixteen. Or a Calling Dr. Love. Maybe even Love 'Em and Leave 'Em. But the rest is just ... yeah. Dialed in. 2. Since I bailed in 1980, a lot of these albums I haven't heard. Not even "I Love It Loud" made me go back to them. But I did pick up, just out of curiousity, Animalize and Asylum. I thought "Heaven's On Fire" was alright. "Get All You Can Take" was kinda cool. "Tears Are Falling" was ok too, but there were just bands that were doing stuff like it, that were better. But I'm glad your list seemed almost entirely made up of post Ace Frehley KISS. I never bought The Elder, and I've listened to it. I won't be buying The Elder.

Love your dry sense of humour Sean and your review style. I agree with every rating you've given except Odyssey.

[@AzRoadRunner78]

I can agree with you on songs like Odyssey, I Finally Found My Way, Read My Body, and Murder In High Heels. I do love Boomerang (I can agree about the production tho) and Gimme More. Nothing Can Keep Me From You was a good song tho definitely had no place on the DRC soundtrack but it’d have been a good Box Set new track. I even like Love’s A Deadly Weapon tho not my favorite on Asylum (I admit I do prefer it over Uh! All Night). I admit I used to hate Cadillac Dreams, but I actually really like it now. I don’t have a top 10 least favorite KISS songs, but if I did, it would include most of the songs on Monster, Great Expectations, Then She Kissed Me, Torpedo Girl, Just A Boy (and Odyssey), Lonely Is The Hunter, Bang Bang You, Good Girl Gone Bad, Let’s Put The X In Sex, and We Are One. I was never a big fan of All Hell’s Breaking Loose. I know it’s kinda an 80s fan favorite, but it always annoyed me except for the chorus, especially because I thought A Million To One would have made a much stronger single/video.

[@theonlyjamiebourgeois9703]

Forever, Let's put the x in sex, and most everything after Animalize. Genes material on Animalize was pretty terrible though. I LOVE the 'lick it up' album but I kind of agree with "Gimme More". From classic KISS I'd have to say 'She', and 'Cold Gin' are both just plodding and really booooring. Similar for 'Firehouse'. I could live without hearing those three songs again. I LOVE 'Dance all over your face'. It's probably kind of a terrible song, but it was part of my first kiss experience as lick it up with my first album. I love that stupid song!

I never take the lyrics too seriously in any Kiss song, and turned up loud it kind of gives me a Love it Loud feeling. The other 9 are songs I skip when playing an album.... Well, maybe with the exception of The Odyssey. I rarely play the Elder, but usually play it straight through when I do. My worst Kiss songs overall is anything Paul sings in his high, almost falsetto voice, which from the early 80s to present is a pretty high percentage.

[@DF-ee8vt]

I can't disagree, especially since all of these songs come from the era after I lost interest in KISS. I would add "Tomorrow and Tonight", an obvious attempt to re-create the magic of "Rock and Roll All Nite".

It’s nice you didn’t go on a Peter and Ace bashing like a lot of over loyal fans do. TBF I used to like Kiss when I was a teenager where their basic and immature sexually charged lyrics were fun but 30 yrs later and all the politics, bitching, 23 year long farewell tour and backing track fiasco I have very little time for them. The fact that Gene and Paul rarely grew as musicians or writers shows that they are more interested in money over anything else.

Sean, I totally agree with you. After 1983 I couldn't get into Kiss.

[@MarkwMars]

Loved the video! A really respectfull review and opinion, i agree with all of them, personaly i really like the asylum album and animalize cuz i like energetic songs. But you really have good points on why not liking it. My opinion is that the only album from the 80s that is REALLY good is creatures of the night! Eric Carr drums are so sick in all of the albums, guess he was the only thing saving Kiss through the 80s

[@jeffrykopis5468]

I liked Lick it Up, Animalize, and Asylum when they first came out. Crazy Nights was just ok. I hated Hot in the Shade. But all of them had TOO much jangly guitar, and no bottom end. Paul's opening songs were always over the top, bombastic, frenetic, but had no GROOVE. Vinnie, Mark, and Bruce all had that Yngwie Disease, just puking out billions of notes, none of them catchy or memorable.

[@pg1171]

Thanks for posting! I was a KISS fan for years, until Peter and Ace left, then stayed through everything until Hot In The Shade. That was my breaking point. Until Psycho Circus. That was the only KISS music that I actually bought. Pleasently surprised by it. Not a fan of Gene or Paul. KISS just isn't KISS without the original members, no matter how good the replacements are. Thanks again for posting! Peace! And have a great day! Now...what are your 10 BEST KISS songs? First time on your channel....Keep up the great work!

[@DaP84]

10 best is a way harder mission

[@SeanBlumenshine]

Dude for sure. I would genuinely have a hard time with that.

[@SeanBlumenshine]

My favorite is God Gave Rock and Roll to You. Shout it out Loud would probably be top ten. I'd have to think about it for a while.

[@JIMJAMSC]

Fan since 77. Only 10 is tough but 5 would be Detroit Rock City,Rock and Roll all Night, Love Gun, Dr Love and both Kiss Alive 1 and two.

[@wayne1167]

I would have added : Tomorrow and Tonight. And then she kissed me. Great Expectations Hooligan I Still Love You X Ray Eyes Magic Touch Mainline All The Way Let Me Know

[@jimhendershot9757]

Spot on; I am a KISS fan from their early days when Rock and Roll was something you did all night (and party every day).

[@scottlucas9551]

Dude. Impressive. In order to list the "worst" Kiss songs implies you listened to ALL of their songs. I couldn't even imagine what damage that did. Remarkable endurance!

[@RobertWilkinsonJKekMaloy]

I have listened to them all. He is pretty spot on

[@richardlawson6787]

Every band....even the mighty Beatles...released some trash...you see...bands are under pressure to put out an album whether they have anything or not...so they have to throw in some filler songs...

[@themindseyecmh]

Cool list.... the two songs on your list that would also appear on mine is Nothing Can Keep Me From You, and I Finally Found My Way My other least favorite KISS songs, in no order Kissin' Time Great Expectations Easy As It Seems I Still Love You (It just drags for me) Good Girl Gone Bad Spit Dreamin' Eat Your Heart Out

[@alstrickland7520]

Unmasked album was atrocious

[@fmbbeachbum8163]

Simple answer, every song without Peter & Ace

[@bannersvault3102]

I just downloaded Apple Music and was working on Kiss playlists (I'd say mostly complete albums that I take songs out of) and came back to give some hate to Bang Bang You. 😂

[@ExtremePainGames]

I'm at the Odyssey part of the video. My guy this is a huge fricking insult. 🤣🤣

[@mkp3824]

I don't know a lot of the non-makeup songs that weren't popular enough to get played in concert. Except for "Animalize." I had that one. But "Crazy Nights," "Lick it up," "Hot in the Shade," etc, never had the album. So, I mostly stick to the old stuff and the live albums. (Alive III is underrated. One of my favorites). So, even though they're my favorite band, I've never heard these songs on this list. (I'm up to number 5, now).

[@jfrsnjhnsn]

Lick it Up is worth having just for Fits Like a Glove.

[@edwardschneider7385]

My Top 10 Worst KISS Songs (updated) 10. Beth 9. Rock 'N' Roll Hell 8. You Love Me To Hate You 7. My Way 6. Goin' Blind 5. Kissin Time 4. Then She Kissed Me 3. Torpedo Girl 2. A World Without Heroes 1. God Gave Rock 'N' Roll To You II

[@torarauland7145]

KISS was on top in the 70`s and early 80` they come back with Revenge and MTV Unplugged. Kiss was my first Heavy Metal band and then in the 80`s all bands was coming up fast. Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, DIO, Ozzy Ozbourne, Motorhead, AC/DC osv. But Kiss albums from the 80`s was not so goog as before. But i still plays my Kiss albums and DVD`s. I`m a big ACE FREHLEY fan. I was 8 years old when ACE solo album come out in 1978. And i liked them all albums from the early days.Stay Metal.

[@joevargo3323]

I listen to Odyssey every night before I go to sleep.

[@Tigerwolf291]

Can't argue with this list. Around that time when the makeup came off I felt that was a huge mistake and distanced myself from the group a bit although they had some good songs during the no makeup era for sure.

[@karl-unoisaksson4000]

Whe share the #1 at least🙂 Gimme more is soooo far from Kiss, but straight up my alley at the time, listening to Accept, Anvil and Maiden... So I actually REVERSE that song and place it Top-20... Odessey... Booh or Yaa...? Personally? I listen to the album in whole every once in a while... Ok, Budd, It's not a Kiss song... So I agree, eventhough It's a great song/album!!! Whatever - I totally LOVE that people like you share your thoughts about the greatest band ever 🥂🙏 Love from Sweden 💖

[@Stewozz98]

I agree. 80's Kiss is essentially garbage. Thought it then and my whole attitude since has not wavered. Unlike ZZtop who openly admitted they changed their original sound to sell records and make money Kiss (Stanley/Simmons) believe what they were doing was what we all wanted. Personally it wasn't until 1992's Revenge was released that I and I believe the true diehard Kiss Army Vets got back on board with what our Painted Warriors were trying to sell. No one ever said being a KISS fan was going to be easy. They most certainly live up to that.

[@tysonwilliams4467]

Im grateful you didn't include any tracks from the first six albums. Granted there are some filler tracks here and there but i find them more tolerable than the ones here.

[@sunintheroom]

.."easy as it seems" and "escape from the island"..fillers.. :)

[@Bop7324]

I couldn’t narrow it down to just ten. Basically everything from 1983 to present day with the exception of Rock n Roll Hell.

[@roberthaizlip4057]

There was a love story in Detroit rock city movie so a ballad totally made sense on the soundtrack..
