I was in the crowd during this episode and Gene looked me in the eyes and stuck out his tongue! At the time I screamed in terror bc it freaked me out, but deep down I always knew it was an honor lmao not to mention my dad was super jealous 😂
This guy DEFINITELY rocks with KISS while Adam Lambert had no business trying to sing with KISS or any other rock band. Lambert sings like a drama queen
You people kill me-------Did you watch that at all.... What an amazing event,crowd and dream come true for the contestant.. I am die hard kiss for 42 years now. I know them just as good as the very best critic.... But thats just it ...I am just a critic..I do not get up and do what they do..I have not accomplished what they have and probably never will and thats okay.... They are still going and it's a miracle within itself. Their voices and performance is stellar for people grinding for 40 plus years and pushing 70 years old.... Look around at the shit that is available today.Br greatful for KISS on any level or line up....There is no way Peter or Paul could hang today... Love them but Peter would last 5 shows and Ace mmmmm maybe 20..... What a beautiful thing that was in so many different ways....... Shame on anyone that says anything other than--AWESOMENESS!!
this is why, the very first time ever saw a kiss album i was 6 years old, and saw gene on Kiss Alive II back of the album that i instantly fell in love with them. Kiss was my favorite band from 1975 till the 80s and are still my top 3 favorite band ever. Ive literally seen them 16 times and never a let down.....Kiss rules and always will.
His voice is not just going downhill, it's already at the bottom. However! I saw kiss in 2016 and they put on one hell of a show! One of the best live concerts I've ever been too, and I went to GNR, Paul McCartney, ACDC, Def Leppard, REO all this year too.
Harry is so cute! I love his dancing and excitement, because you never saw it on the show. The other two would be grooving and standing and he would be still as a nail.
On 3:05 does Paul swap guitars with someone at the front of the crowd, so the one he smashes at the end is a prop and not the same guitar he had been playing?
+Big B Gaming Yeah he usually does do that. It's because he uses his one of a kind guitars on stage, which he can't really break. He always breaks his signature PS models instead of his rare ones. It's not a prop, it's still a real guitar, but it's not the same guitar he was playing.
+Tyler Glynn plus electrics are sturdy and dont break easily, even if you slam it and smash it repeatedly it wont break. Paul usually has his road crew saw off bit of the guitar he's gonna smash so it comes off easier
Hear the Bass still playing while Gene has his hands in the air!! They're singing to a backing track!! I'm a Bass player and I could see that sometimes Gene wasn't even playing the right notes. Also the Drum set wasn't mic'd up, it only had the Cymbal Mics on it, nothing else.
Caleb really owned this. Paul sang a bit too much though. Should've gave Caleb more of the lead due to the fact that this is to showcase Caleb's voice.
Caleb Johnson was the opening act of the KISS concert I was at. He screamed so much. He was actually pretty terrible. KISS made up for it though. ROCK ON
This was bad ass! What cracks me up is i'll bet 95% of these teeny boppers know anything about this! Good start in showing them in the right direction though!
+jaytube2112 I have said this, too. It's his face and his voice. A very young Meatloaf. Nothing to do with his weight cause Meatloaf was WAY heavier when he was young.
+Trolololol65 However, it is improving; slowly, very slowly, but improving. Go listen to the Rock am ring concert from 2010, that, in my opinion, was his worst year.
Ryan looked like dwarf compared to Kiss. Great job all around. Kiss was phenomenal and sounded perfect. Caleb did good. Kiss acknowledged Caleb like true sports. Ace and Paul have always sounded great. Good job Tommy.
+Ninno Angelo Agreed. I love KISS and I love Paul. I'm sitting in my office with my Paul items and KISS albums on the wall. But his voice is GONE. Caleb sounded fantastic. At one point, his voice sounded just like Paul's!
i like all kinds of music even rock even though i don't like search it and download rick songs and stuf and idk kiss very much but from the looks of it they are great i love these two songs
Paul Stanley, the KING of live performance
No better front man in RocknRoll!!
Paul is are GOD nobody like him
Listen beter
Amen brother🤟🎶
@@royalbrigade6662 you only make are wish that him your brother.haha
I will always be a young 6year old rocking out to the kiss album on our stereo in ‘78’ man those were the years .. Rock on always 😜😎🫶🙌🙌❤
I was in the crowd during this episode and Gene looked me in the eyes and stuck out his tongue! At the time I screamed in terror bc it freaked me out, but deep down I always knew it was an honor lmao not to mention my dad was super jealous 😂
nice memory
Did the same thing to me back in October
This is by far the best performance that I’ve ever seen what an amazing combination
This guy DEFINITELY rocks with KISS while Adam Lambert had no business trying to sing with KISS or any other rock band. Lambert sings like a drama queen
What do we have left? Thank you a thousand times for the presence of these artists in the world.

paul did great! just because his voice is kinda gone doesn't mean he isn't great still! besides he is like 70 now so that happenes
He's 64, and still rockin! A person as talented as Paul Stanley comes once in a life time.
He'll always be in the top 5 frontmen of all time. (#2 in my book right behind Freddie)
Look at Harry's eyes light up. I would feel like a kid again too.
KISS Is The Best Band Ever
this is why, the very first time ever saw a kiss album i was 6 years old, and saw gene on Kiss Alive II back of the album that i instantly fell in love with them. Kiss was my favorite band from 1975 till the 80s and are still my top 3 favorite band ever. Ive literally seen them 16 times and never a let down.....Kiss rules and always will.
They're still rocking the 80's sound. Bam.
KISS on American Idol....I don't know whether to celebrate or cry for rock 'n roll....
Caleb Johnson definitely reminds me of Meat Loaf \m/ \m/
Best American Idol EVER!
Keith Urban looks confused, like he can't remember the last time he saw a crowd go this insane. Oh yeah, it was at the last Kiss concert, right Keith
Harry Connick Jr. rocking out to Love Gun is so much fun to watch
Just found out kiss is touring and Caleb is touring with them. This summer. That's so awesome.
I think that's Def Leppard
He sounded just like Paul Stanley. I always thought Stanley had a unique and interesting voice. It is going down hill but shit happens, you get old.
anonymous user I agree Paul's voice is getting bad but your right people get old
His voice is not just going downhill, it's already at the bottom. However! I saw kiss in 2016 and they put on one hell of a show! One of the best live concerts I've ever been too, and I went to GNR, Paul McCartney, ACDC, Def Leppard, REO all this year too.

That shows you the power that KISS has
That beginning Spanish song straight to ROCK'n ROLL! I love it!🤘🏻
This is %100 live vocals right here
YEAAAAHHHHHH....its only realy like KISS....I#m born on 73'......Drugs, Rock 'n' Roll
This was fricking awesome!!!!!!!!
Caleb will be the opener for KISS in July @ Intrust Bank Arena in Wichita
awsome. congratz @caleb johnson. grtz from belgium.
The best show stopper of All Time.... \m/
this is a real show!!1 wow

@@patrickbateman7769 I disagree. I've had guitars break, high end. It's all about the grain in the wood in my opinion, not electrics.
kiss is cool as fuck
-.-"
I will see them in September. Cannot wait!
I'm seeing them in August of 2016 (this year)
+Zach Randolph Enjoy the show!
+Michael Adamcik thanks! :)
+Zach Randolph saw them at Hershey PA 2010
Great
I saw them in September too!

Dang...Paul's guitar switcharoo at the end there was pretty smooth and subtle.
Caleb is the new MeatLoaf... And some..
I agree with you.
Not just a dream for Caleb, but especially Harry and Keith. Caleb sounded good fitst song.
kiss rocks the stage there the best 😝🤘
Not seen much in Europe,with regards to Caleb. hope he rises to the top he has a talent
which should not be wasted...
This performance changed my life when I was 8
Awesome.. they should play @ Super Bowl...!!!!
They did in 1999
R and R all nite
Really.. cool.. thanks I miss it damn..
+saiyo phom Look up Super Bowl 99
enjoy
What a moment!
Caleb really owned this. Paul sang a bit too much though. Should've gave Caleb more of the lead due to the fact that this is to showcase Caleb's voice.
+Logan Dumont --NO-he did just fine.
If KISS are really going to put out a lineup with no original members, they need to get Caleb to sing lead
Caleb reminds me of jack black from school of rock 🙂
AWESOME!! KISS FOREVER!!!
nice to see paul with de Ibanez Iceman again!
DITTO!! Glad you made the comment! Yes good to see a old friend.
Harry was having a great time, that guy is cool
i now him he went to school with my sister he can sing
HOLY SHIT!!!!!! MY GOD YES!!!!! DO QUIET RIOT NEXT PLZ!!!!!
How to guarantee a crowd going apeshit? Bring Kiss
Loved it
Caleb Johnson was the opening act of the KISS concert I was at. He screamed so much. He was actually pretty terrible. KISS made up for it though. ROCK ON
The Freedom to Rock tour...I saw Caleb as the opening act for Kiss.
This was bad ass! What cracks me up is i'll bet 95% of these teeny boppers know anything about this! Good start in showing them in the right direction though!
For the record, Paul's voice is shot! He needs to step down like he asked Peter Chris to do so many years ago.
+NoirHammer Yep!
+NoirHammer MAn--- that was a great thing that happened right there and everyone had a wonderful time. Let be.
You can't imagine that they are in their 60s
paul s voice is very better than in 2013
My first thought was, "What's Meatloaf doing on stage?"
Good good good fit to Kiss!
良いバンドだと思いました❤
like the quick sneaky swap of pauls guitar for his cheap copy to smash at the end,lol
Rockstars of the Rockstars...
I think I know who beat everyone else, even when they weren't competing
Did this guy win?? Ik adam lambert lost when he performed with kiss which was dumb
Trev x Caleb, if I am correct, did win
I now Caleb and yes he won
Pretty good
I now Caleb me and my sister went to school with him
Caleb kinda reminds me of Meatloaf.
+jaytube2112 just cause he's fat and has long hair? thats discriminating
+theLEGENDofKIZ I hope that was a joke, because I think he was talking about the voice/presence
+jaytube2112 I have said this, too. It's his face and his voice. A very young Meatloaf. Nothing to do with his weight cause Meatloaf was WAY heavier when he was young.
:o
Lol
WOW, Paul's voice is GONE!
+Trolololol65 However, it is improving; slowly, very slowly, but improving. Go listen to the Rock am ring concert from 2010, that, in my opinion, was his worst year.
At least he's not Vince Neil, still they can both put on a hell of a show at their age
@@tylerglynn6334 true
3:24 Paul has a heart attack
Kiss même en France 🍻
I'm so jealous..
Ryan looked like dwarf compared to Kiss. Great job all around. Kiss was phenomenal and sounded perfect. Caleb did good. Kiss acknowledged Caleb like true sports. Ace and Paul have always sounded great. Good job Tommy.
+Glen W. Ford Dude! that is not ACE. That space man is Tommy Thayer. There is only ONE TRUE ACE.
+scott sailer ---I know. I never said that was Ace. I just said he sounded good.
Ok but call him Tommy. or spaceman. Ace does lease them the rights to "The Spaceman" makeup and the logo since he designed both.
Ace is the Space Ace. Tommy is a Space Cadet
Not bad :)
Bruh when can I see you and kiss? I really want to...but this coronavirus mess sucks...
Don't forget Kiss is Wearing 8" platform boots. and Ryan is short. LOL.
I remember when Caleb Johnson came to MN with KISS and Caleb's back-up singer ended up stealing the show from him. lol
i so wish caleb had painted his face for this
わたしまで、楽しくなるね。
ELECTRIC
When Paul decides to replace himself, this is a good place to start. Caleb's got a fitting voice.
Caleb totally owned that song.... Paul really needs to retire, his voice is gone.
+Ninno Angelo Agreed. I love KISS and I love Paul. I'm sitting in my office with my Paul items and KISS albums on the wall. But his voice is GONE. Caleb sounded fantastic. At one point, his voice sounded just like Paul's!
Paul Stanley's replacement.
Paul doesn't need to retire, Paul can just play guitar while Caleb sings his songs!
Also a lot of people say the guy that does Paul in that tribute band Mr.Speed.
Paul sounded like crap. I was like... uh... Caleb is owning you right now...
3:05 starchild changes guitar 😂😂😂😂
Nice catch
On 3:05 paul picks up another guitar and smasher that new one
Paul sounding a bit croaky here. The old days are gone. Now it's all nostalgia. Capable saved him.
What is the name the song 🎵 number 2
Live vocals, recorded backing track. Detuned, obviously!
Do the teens in the audience know who KISS
Yeah, I'm sure those girls in the front row are huge KISS fans...
3:04 olha o paul pegando guitarra falsa
Paul is a good looking guy..what can I say..💋
Paul still sounds great
Uhh, no. His voice has been completely gone for a good 15+ years now. I say this as fan who's seen them several times.
Caleb made the band
jeesh ! let the kid sing !
I bet most of these kids don't even know what kiss is..
i like all kinds of music even rock even though i don't like search it and download rick songs and stuf and idk kiss very much but from the looks of it they are great i love these two songs
This guy actually sounded a tiny bit better than Paul.
Because he's significantly younger, but still, Paul sounded pretty good.
we dont need no doggone opera singers
The cameras need to focus more on the guy with the tongue 👅 problem.
Less everyone else.
9-25-23
CHEEZY AS HELL!
2:09
Poor Paul...his voice is just screaming, “help!” ITS 2018 AND KISS IS ENDING AND IM PISSSSSSSED!!!!!!!
in the 2013 experienced such a mutation
Shoulda let the young guy sing the whole thing.
Sounds so weird without Ace's playing...
where was JLo
xoLoVeisLiSa her performance was next so she was getting ready
