Kiss Konfidential

VHS Archives #152: Grumpy KISS Host the Power 20 on MuchMusic (1993)

A bitchy Paul Stanley and a disinterested Gene Simmons walked in to host the Power 30 on MuchMusic, with only Eric Singer and Bruce Kulick to save them.  On the road to promote the new home video KISS Konfidential, Paul starts off by complaining that Kiss never got played on MuchMusic.  (Untrue; all their current videos received ample play, with the exception of the ballad “Every Time I Look At You”, and “Domino” did quite well.  It was so popular with one of the MuchMusic hosts that he even played a clip of it on a rap show.)

Kiss videos played on this episode were “I Love It Loud” (Live), “Heaven’s On Fire”, and “A World Without Heroes”, which was the first time I ever caught the full track played any time on MuchMusic.  These videos are not included in the clip.

Bonus: Paul sings in the intro to “Heaven’s On Fire” live in the studio.
