After laying out a case for his top 20 KISS songs on his radio show, super-fans John 5 and Tom Morrelo weighed in. This is a lot of fun for KISS fans of which there are a handful here.

Please list the songs so we can discuss them and not have to watch 3 hours of Eddie Trunk talking over his guests. I could change the order at any given time but the top 4 are pretty much in stone.

1. Rock and Roll All Night
2. Let me Go Rock and Roll
3. Nothing to lose
4. C'mon and love me
5. Ladies in waiting
6. Room Service
7. Strutter
8. Deuce
9. Love Gun
10. Hard luck woman
11. Beth
12. Dr. Love
13. Black Diamond
14. 100,000 years
15. I stole your love
16. Parasite
17. Shock me
18. God of Thunder
19. Detroit Rock City
20. Ladies Room

Funny you posted this, I'm buring my Kiss cds to make a new playlist on my ithing tonight.

I find that over the years I have tired of the hits and prefer the “B” songs for my playlist, but how do you not put rock and roll all night number 1?

This is hard. Too many great songs. I'm leaving a bunch out. Should really be Top 20 Classic Era KISS and a Top 20 Post Classic Era.

So I was listening to the demo God of Thunder on 40 Years of Kiss with Paul singing, no effects and fast tempo like they played it live. Ok till they get to the chorus and wimpy falsetto vocals. I never cared for Bob Ezrind sound effects on the studio version or how slow it was.

Today live albums are throwaways but back in the day they could be huge. Kiss, Peter Frampton, Cheap Trick, Thin Lizzy all blew up on their live album, not the preceding studio albums. Nobody looked at Frampton till the live album..

Ok. This makes it a bit easier but I’m still leaving out a bunch of classics. It’s just a matter of personal preference.

Top 20 Classic Era KISS Songs (Gene, Paul, Peter and Ace lineup)

King of the Nighttime World
Makin’ Love
Shock Me
Take Me
Mr. Speed
Shout It Out Loud
Calling Dr. Love
Detroit Rock City
Parasite
Christine Sixteen
She
100,000 Years
Watching You
Rock Bottom
Do You Love Me?
I Want You
Strutter
Strange Ways
Cold Gin
Black Diamond

Peter didn’t play on Dynasty or the Alive 2 studio tracks so I left those songs off.

Top 20 KISS Songs Post Classic Line-Up

Rocket Ride (Ace but not Peter)
I Love It Loud
War Machine
Unholy
Creatures of the Night
Hard Times (Ace but not Peter)
Larger Than Life
Charisma (Ace but not Peter)
X-Ray Eyes (Ace but not Peter)
Sure Know Something (Ace but not Peter)
Rock and Roll Hell

Damn, KISS has one serious body of work. On second thought, I’m not sure if Ace played on all of the Dynasty tracks I listed. I’d have to go back and listen to them.

They’ve got too many great songs. It’s impossible to make a top 20 list without leaving some classics off.
