Kiss - "Forever"

[Mister Freeze]

Love the video. This was a great moment for them. Is this the most sentimental Kiss ever got?

[HueyRamone]

Ha ha, you just admitted you like Michael Bolton sappy chick bullshit.

[Mister Freeze]

I do. Good stuff.

The first one is one of the most head-scratching things they ever did. I still remember when a friend emailed it to me and said “Here’s the new KISS song. It sucks dick.”

I always thought of that as them trying to have their own "I Don't Want To Miss a Thing" but falling way short.

There wasn't a trend this band didn't follow.

[BernieTaupson]

That’s totally what it was trying to do. Then the director didn’t even put it into Detroit Rock City the movie. It’s tagged onto the credits. And it’s not even the first song of the credits!

Pretty much.

KISS is a terribly mediocre rock band that semi-lucked into being way ahead of the curve image wise for about five years (I was made for loving you came out in 79 ffs, and have been a shitty version of various trends since.

Their influence on a generation is undeniable, but how they've managed to reinvent their credibility as a band steadfastly flying the rock flag for decades Is a testament to human desire to romanticize.

But it was definitely their most sentimental.

lmao

I've found this picture in an article on the origin of kisses makeup.

The caption reads "The early years of Kiss, before establishing their makeup style."



Nice editing work

[Black Stuff]

A great song is a great song. Def dig this one.

Yup. Sometimes chasing trends has a good outcome. Love this song

Now... them trying to rewrite Pour Some Sugar on me with Read my Body is how to do it very poorly

[Stinky McFister]

Didn't they write a song about Scooby Doo?

[TooOldToCare]

I wonder what they'd have become in the 80s and 90s if they weren't trend chasers but simply a balls-out rock band a la GnR. I thought some of Revenger felt that way, but certainly not all of it. And as a previous poster mentioned, it did seem to begin with Dynasty with the pseudo-disco influence, then Pink Floyd concept city, through the hair/glam period, grunge, and then becoming a nostalgia act for the rest of their careers.

you are a little confused, Forever came out 9 years before the Aerosmith sloppy ballad!

[BernieTaupson]

He’s talking about the 1999 song from the Detroit Rock City soundtrack you KISStardio.

[pieceofme]

Great song. Best song on one of the weaker KISS albums.

Between this and I Still Love You for their most sentimental ballad.

Stanley tried to repeat the trick with Everytime I look at you on the next album, but it seemed forced and very inauthentic.

[Anthrax442]

I'd never heard it before today. Completely not surprised it's a Diane Warren special, I can hear Steven Tyler singing it instead of Paul.

Forever kicks the shit out of that song.

[ParaDime77]

Love the song. Outstanding solo and the fade out at the end is perfect.

[dmbrocker]

Ha ha, you just admitted you like Michael Bolton sappy chick bullshit.

I'd admit to that as well. I actually listened to "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You" earlier today and marveled at how good it is.

[BernieTaupson]

Bolton has a few good tunes.

[kytepunches]

A World Without Hero’s - The highlight is the single tear rolling down a sad demons face. So sentimental…So deep.

My wife is getting rid of her great Aunt's frilly pink pinafore, let me know your size, and if it's similar we could ship it off to you.

Oooh, a PINK pinafore! I usually wear a size large. Does that work for you?

Yes. I'll see what other dresses she had for the other "men" on here who admit they like Forever.

When did you get married?

Nice to hear that tori black has found someone to settle down with

Actual shit kicks the shit out of "Nothing Can Keep Me From You".........

[Tyketto Meniketti]

Amazingly enough, some of that early Michael Bolotin stuff isn't all bad. Tunes he did with Bruce Kulick are pretty good.

I was a hater in the 90s but only because he was so ridiculously popular with those sappy radio ballads.

Forever ain't one of them. Eric Carr crushes on drums. Kulick is solid, as is Paul.

[Dyslexicheart]

People actually like this lame-ass shit? Haha. Awful.

I was thinking this exact thing

Garbage.

Air Supply crap. But that might be a slight to Air Supply
