10. Poor Beth. Her life is too tragic.
:( sitting at home making dinner or something, and her man never comes home.

The selfish cad. :mad: :nuke: :(

Fifty points to the first person to name what that's from.

14. Kiss had some excellent tunes back in the 70's
It wasn't all crap.


But how the mighty have fallen once again.

15. Well, thanks for getting "Sunshine Day" by the Brady Kids out of my head.
ANYTHING is preferable. I'll take "Beth." Hell, I'd take "It's a Small World" over "Sunshine Day."

Gawd. Just shoot me now.

20. Kiss had some great records
I love everything up through Love Gun. And then the mighty fell and fell hard they did. Music From the Elder. Nuff said.

Actually, I think Beth is really their weakest tune from those years, but to each her own.

(I much prefer Goin' Blind, if we're going to talk Kiss ballads.)
