Now THIS is a great cover, and a great tribute to KISS. Lead singer has a fantastic voice to boot. Never even heard of these guys until now, had no idea they were around this long, this is pretty cool. Gonna check out more of their stuff and see what I think, but as of right now, I think I can add another great band to my like list. :)
This sounds like Kiss with a touch of Boston. Michael Sweet's other band may be rubbing off on him a bot here. For those wondering why Stryper is doing all this secular music, remember, Michael Sweet is also in the secular classic rock band Boston.
Thats what my comments meant, Eric Carr blew Peter Criss away, far superior drummer. I love the original KISS and I love Peter Criss, but Eric Carr was special. R.I.P Eric.
Great cover of one of KISS' best songs! and to all the stryper hating self-righteous windbags here. Go to hell!!! Stryper are Christian & It's not your place to say otherwise. JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED YOURSELF
Stryper are merely having fun Covering songs that inspired them to be musicians! Besides this satanic argument is as old as music itself. Grow up. No One, in Any of the bands Stryper covers here ever said they worship Satan. Get a life
Being a MASSIVE KISS FAN I've never heard this!!! Pretty damn kicking!! As far as the drummer debate, every drummer has been technically better than Pete, but he was first and he was best!! I've met everyone of them and in person Eric Carr was a true gem!! He talked with us backstage for 20 minutes, with tits flying everywhere!! He was the coolest of them all!! And a far better drummer than Pete but Pete is still on top 'cause he was there before and anyone after him had to copy at least a few
Because Eric Carr was a much better drummer. Peter Criss was more of an "Idol" since he was one of the founders of Kiss.... but as a drummer, he really isn't that good (and He was the one who inspired me to play drums - but I was better than him by the time I was 14.)
This isn't a bad cover, but I really hate this song....the two most covered kiss songs are probably this, and "Rock 'N' Roll All Night..." and I hate that one as well.
@tbnterprises i agree with you, Eric Carr was a better drummer than Peter Criss. Also, yeah this song & Rock And Roll All Nite have been overly done in cover / tributes. It'd be cool to hear them do something like I Love It Loud.
Good cover. It sounds so good because they played it exactly like KISS did, they didn't change anything. Note for note its the same. I always liked Stryper and now I like them even more. Nice tribute to The Greatest Band Ever....KISS!!!!
@vezonproductions Karen Carpender hit the drums harder than Peter Criss ... Peter Criss was a good singer/song writer, or at least thats what got Gene and Paul's attention when they hired him ... Eric Carr was great and Eric Singers is great also!
Respond to this video...Great song and good band covering it. I have one of Strper's records and i love it, it has Honestly and other great songs on it
Matt 7:21-23, 21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' DID WE NOT PLAY AND PROMOTE AND MAKE A CD OF SECULAR BANDS THAT REJECT YOU IN YOUR NAME? 23Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'
@pearlsb4swine1969 you have no idea what are you talking about !!!! the cd has an history inside it !!! and it shows how the angel is restored only thru the covering with jesuschrist blood !!!! :D
The Devil are using you,Mr Pearl!God is using Stryper to reach people,the Devil is using u to be be negative to Gods servants.....By spreading your shit/hate under every song ,it shows that your not over their music!....It's ok to have your thoughts,but doing all you can to hurt and destroy for Stryper, shows that your full of hate and bitternes....Delete your bitterness and hate against Stryper...Pray for them instead!!=)Maybe it's you who runs in the Devils sevice?Rock
Yes Stryper is one heckuva Heavy Metal Band. Always loved their Christian Metal and now it is kinda nice to hear them cover all of these bands. Die Hard KISS fan here and this cover has chills up and down my spine. Great Job
