By the suggestion of Peter Kerr! Hot on the heels of our best KISS song lists, here are my WORST songs by my favourite band! One song for every studio album, plus one song to represent the many extra tunes that Kiss have in their discography! Enjoy – or don’t enjoy -the list of stinkiest Kiss songs of all time! (Peeeeww!)
NOTE: Some of these albums have no truly bad songs. Hotter Than Hell and Destroyer, for example. Therefore, I just had to stick my neck out with my “least best”. This is a much more difficult list than picking favourites.
- KISS – Love Theme From KISS
- HOTTER THAN HELL – Strange Ways
- DRESSED TO KILL – Anything For My Baby
- DESTROYER – Do You Love Me?
- ROCK AND ROLL OVER – Baby Driver
- LOVE GUN – Almost Human
- PETER CRISS – Kiss the Girl Goodbye
- ACE FREHLEY – I’m In Need of Love
- GENE SIMMONS – When You Wish Upon A Star
- PAUL STANLEY – Love In Chains
- DYNASTY – X-Ray Eyes
- UNMASKED – She’s So European
- MUSIC FROM THE ELDER – Mr. Blackwell
- CREATURES OF THE NIGHT – I Love It Loud
- LICK IT UP – Gimme More
- ANIMALIZE – Murder In High Heels
- ASYLUM – I’m Alive
- CRAZY NIGHTS – I’ll Fight Hell to Hold You
- HOT IN THE SHADE – Love’s A Slap in the Face
- REVENGE – Paralyzed
- CARNIVAL OF SOULS – Childhood’s End
- PSYCHO CIRCUS – I Finally Found My Way
- SONIC BOOM – Never Enough
- MONSTER – Freak
- EXTRA SONGS – Nothing Can Keep Me From You (Detroit Rock City soundtrack)
A really hard list. Worst song from Hot in the Shade? Get in line. Worst song from Lick It Up or Creatures? Much harder. Even The Elder was difficult. In most cases I went with my first instinct. I hope you enjoy this list – and sorry Joey about “I Love It Loud”!

Great idea, Peter and Mike. (Henry)

Yeah, we disagree on a lot of these, especially I Love It Loud, Freak, I’m Alive and a few more. I liked your best of way better!! LOL!!!! I did a best and worst song on each album a couple years ago. It was fun. I’ve done it for a few bands. need to do more of those.

I can agree with “Nothing Can Keep Me From You,” Paul doesn’t seen the one for singing ballads, leave that to Peter. However, I also have to disagree on “I Love it Loud” as it’s my favourite KISS song, period.

Paul does a lot of ballads, too many of them. I think his solo album Live To Win had 3 or 4.

I really like a lot of these, Almost Human, I Love It Loud, I’m Alive, Never Enough. I used to dislike Do You Love Me, but it grew on me.
…and I’m not even a tenth of as big a fan as you. As a massive Kiss fan, making this must have killed you.

I agreed with you a lot on the like, but differ a lot on this one!
The ones that I’d jump to are Great Expectations on Destroyer and Then She Kissed Me on Love Gun being by far my least favorites. “My Way” and “When Your Walls Come Down” are tied on Crazy Nights, but there’s a lot of shit to go around there.
“Odyssey” for The Elder. I like Mr. Blackwell!

Mike is legally obligated to not criticise “Then She Kissed Me Under” under any circumstances.

“Kiss the Girl Goodbye” must be so bad if it beat out “You Matter to Me”

I wanted to make a smartass comment about how all the songs are horrible, but now I’m going to listen to Creatures of the Night because I enjoy I Love It Loud. And if that’s the worst track on it the rest must be banging!

You got that right! It is a killer, pun intended. (The 2nd last song is called Killer).
