Fun fact…the “duh duh duh duh” guitar lick was sampled into Tone Loc’s “Funky Cold Medina”
As was the guitar riff to Foreigner's "Hot Blooded".
@@WilliamT1964 The song contains several samples. The drum break is from "Get Off Your Ass and Jam" by Funkadelic, and the main guitar riff is from "Hot Blooded" by Foreigner. Other samples are taken from "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones (when this song is mentioned in the lyrics), "Christine Sixteen" by Kiss, "All Right Now" by Free and "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" by Bachman-Turner Overdrive
Plaster Caster is the one that will really blow your mind when you figure out what the song is about. On a side note Christine Sixteen made the Top 20 in 1977. The song Jailbait by Aerosmith will really freak you out.
going blind is another one
Yes I was going to mention Plaster Caster.
Nothin to lose.... it really wasn't a secret back then what the major focus was. 😉
Jailbait by Motorhead is insanely crazy.
Jailbait by Ted Nugent
You should react to the similarly themed "Goin' Blind" on the Kiss Hotter than Hell album. 😉
The Melvins cover is pretty amazing
Lol one of my favorites
But that was a decent Song this Christine was just absolute throw a way Rubbish!
You MARS.!! YOUR COMPLETE RUBBISH..GET A LIFE.😂😅😢😟
Yeah that record is badass!
This takes me back. I remember Kiss was my first favorite band as a kid in the 70s. We even went out Trick or Treating once as Kiss. My brothers made fun of us over liking Kiss. They were into Zeppelin and Aerosmith. Thanks man. Great reaction as Kiss was wild back in the day
Your reaction to this has absolutely made my day! I think I've watched it 3 times. I think I was 15 or 16 when this came out and it was 🔥 back then!!!!
There are so many of these songs, and we never thought anything about them. "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" by Sonny Boy Williamson, but it's been covered by everyone. "Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen" by Neil Sedaka, "You're Sixteen, You're Beautiful (and You're MIne)" by Johnny Burnett. Aerosmith, Motorhead and Ted Nugent all have different songs titled "Jailbait," but Ted's is probably the most graphic.
you wouldn't be referring too Wang Dang Sweet Poontang would you? lol
It really was a different world back then (1977). If you go back further, 14 and 15 year olds got married on a regular basis in the 1800's, and that still happened somewhat in the early 20th Century. Kids grew up a lot faster back then. This song was a Top 20 hit. No one made a big deal about it at the time. As an adult, people listen back and think, "Damn, that's creepy," but in 1977? It was no big deal. That sure seems crazy now! Gene jokes on stage sometimes when they play this song now that he should rename it, "Christine 60." The truth is, this song probably only came about because of the rhyme. Gene likes to write songs around a title or idea. In this case, it was the title. It was catchy and memorable. We also got to ride bikes without helmets and ride in the back of open pickup trucks. Both of those things were fun, but really bad ideas. Safety didn't come first back then. And, for better or worse, a lot of people looked at 16 year olds as adults in a lot of ways. (Mostly for worse, although kids were expected to take on more responsibility then than they are at the same age now...)
I got a kick out of your reaction, T. I've been listening to this song and the Winger song since I was a kid and thought nothing of it. Back then it was just as taboo and illegal for grown men to mess around with underage girls as it is today but I don't think anyone paid as much attention to it back then. It was frowned upon of course, but I think people were more willing to look the other way. Gene Simmons is adamant in his autobiography that he never slept with underage girls while on tour and I believe him. If you want an example from the 60s, check out "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" by the Grateful Dead. Also, "Don't Stand So Close To Me" by the Police (from the early 80s) is another variation on the same theme.
I used to listen to this album in my grandparents house all the time. As mentioned below, "Plaster Caster" was a song I used to go around the house singing and it was one of my favorite songs on the album. I had no idea what I was singing...lol
If you want a song even worse than this, check out "Into the night" by; Benny Mardones. You'll be running to therapy. 🤣
@Robert G Look up Professor of Rock channel. He did an interview about the song. (Just watched it myself) It's definitely not a dirty song. 😎✌
Do a little research -- the true meaning and background of the song is nothing like it appears on the surface.
Since you have this album up you might as well listen to Love Gun!!👊🏻
The thing you need to think about is these bands know the core audience they are writing for, which was mostly teenagers. So as a teenager, you relate the song to yourself and your situations and not necessarily from the viewpoint of the band, so it didn't seem creepy at the time. At least that's the way everyone I know views it.
I was 8 years old when I was listening to this song, so sixteen to me was a much older woman. Now I look back and It is a little crazy.
The song can also be sung about a teenager in love. The singer can be voice acting as a character in a song. Songs are set in fiction, despite the real life themes, similar to cartoons.
Here's the thing, Kiss DOES NOT have to play this song live, while Winger HAS to play Seventeen, unfortunate but true.
I was 14 when this came out so Christine is older than me.
I saw Winger open for Kiss in 1990 in Long Beach California which is the port city of Los Angeles.
Music especially rock music was marketed towards teenagers back then and that’s why there are so many references to 16 and 17 yr olds in these songs
Great reaction brings back memories of when I was in junior high and me and my friends would sing this song to girls without fully understanding what the song was about, but we loved the chorus and beat. 😂😂
Oh, to be young and innocent again.
Two things: The piano playing chopsticks is supposed to sound very youthful/childlike, as well. And, the song "Funky Cold Medina" sampled this.
Told ya T. I was young back then and didn't listen to the lyrics. Shoot I had the album on 8 track tape. I'm 55 now and am just discovering lyrics now of songs I listened to all those years ago As someone said Goin Blind by KISS is another I just discovered. Heck my mom's sister got married at thirteen to a 21 or 22 year old with parents written permission. Musician Jerry Lee Lewis married his cousin that was 13 or 14 too back in the 50s or 60s. It was a different time. Have you reacted to Cold Ethel by Alice Cooper. I can't remember. Love your channel 😊
You got me ROLLING!!! LMFAO.🤣😅🤣😂
Haha. Couple bands back in the day did some songs like this.
Ted Nugent has one.
Motorhead has one, "Jailbait."
T: This song began as a joke. Gene was chiding Paul, saying all his songs were about wonen. "Not another Christine 16 song" he said, and Paul said "well, when are you going to write about girls?" This was Gene's response lol
BTW Tone Loc sampled "Christine sixteen" by KISS in "Funky Cold Medina".
Not justifying it but there were a BUNCH of songs out in the 70s & 80s had questionable lyrics, like ted nugent "cat scratch fever" , "Come on Eileen" by Dexys midnight runners", & Benny Mardones "into the night" + many more! Most of them are played on the radio still.
I was a child of the 70's and this song was popular on AM radio at the time, and no one gave it a second thought.
In fact, I remember in junior high school singing it with my friends including girls.
Your members are right when they tell you it was a different time and mentality than it is today and I'm glad I grew up then before the distractions of cell phones and social media.
Interestingly, even though sexual innuendo songs like this were popular I do not recall the high number of sexual assaults we have today.
It is what it is, from another time, pointless looking back at it, and judging it, through today’s perspective. There’s no end to such ‘discoveries’ in all media from past eras. Decades from now people are gonna be wondering what Nicki Minaj is going on about with her “truffle butter” too.
I'm laughing at your reaction all the way through this song you're killing me LOL
A rock band can never put a song like this out today.
The whole hair metal era would never happen in this day in age.
Gene Simmons wrote this song kind of a parody mocking Paul Stanley and the songs he would bring in. In the demo Eddie Van Halen played the guitar part
This song was written from the prospective of an 18 yr old high school student as explained from a younger Gene Simmons
Of course written by Gene Simmons 🤣🤣🤣Another good one off this album is Plaster Caster lol 😆
Gene Simmons said in an interview recently he wouldn't dare white a song like that today!
This is one of the most fun songs in music history to listen to. It's got a catchy hook and I enjoy it very much. I don't care what it's about.
This may have been already mentioned, but Eddie Van Halen played the guitar on the original demo of this song with Gene Simmons (who was working the unknown band Van Halen at the time)... Ace Frehley liked it so much, he played it the same way on the actual record...
Fast forward to the 90s. Gene Simmons revisits the subject with Domino.
Yes, I was going to mention Domino
Edward Van Halen did the demo in NYC for this song, Gene told him to write a guitar solo that Ace could play.
The Beatles have a song about a 17 year old….”I saw her standing there.”
I was in a band and regularly had girls that weren't old enough to drink ( that was 18 at that time ) throwing themselves at me and my band mates. 16 is the legal age of consent in most states. The old saying was "15 will get you 20". Maybe you are thinking that girls that young don't actively seek "relations"... you are wrong. I am not saying I condone it... I sure didn't when my girls were that age. But Kiss always knew their audience. I had a girlfriend that really loved this song. Guess what her name was? She was 26 at the time and she said she had liked that song ever since she heard it. I was kind of meh about the song when it came out. I was 14 years old. Kiss was my favorite band growing up. A friend and I listen to the album ( Love Gun ) that it came off of the day it was released. It shipped platinum... one the first records to ever do that. Go watch some of the old videos on KIss in the 70s... there were alot of girls in those crowds that were that young for sure.
Gotta keep in mind High School kids were the ones going to their concerts, buying their albums ....so you're going write music your audience can relate to
Great choice man,I'm here with ya on this one for sure!! Kiss goes away back to my youth. ❤️
Going blind is another
You beat me to it! Hotter than Hell is one of my favorite Kiss albums!
🤘😎🤘
You need to hear " into the night " Benny Mardones. Also, when my older sister was 16 she had a 22 tear old boyfriend. He was cool because he had a Trans Am.
Check out Motley Crue's "All in the Name of" lyrics off the Girls, Girls, Girls album. "She's only 15. She's the reason I can't sleep. You say Illegal. I say legal's never been my scene". lol
I was about 16 when I heard this , loved it. I love the whole album. But that was 1977, the world was a different place back then. Ringo Star singing sweet 16, Page with his 14yr groupy, dr hook sang "she was too young to fall in love & I was too young to know" Nugent married a really young chic back then too. I think it was common that kind of activity back then.
KISS my favorite band....people don't react to much KISS other than You were made for loving me / rock and roll all nite / Detroit rock city....we'll there popular songs. Great to see a deep dive into their other stuff. Yes, a little...umn...racy.
The song came out in 76 or 77 ,so music was already heading into the 80s .This gave more of the alternative flair to music.
I did Recommend this song after seeing your "17" video from Winger. There are several songs like this from 70s and 80s. Some people mentioned some in other comments, I don't need to name them again. Enjoy...Haha
If this song creeps you out you should check out some of those exploitation movies from the 60s and 70s. Talk about a different world. Those movies are really unbelievable.
Owned it. It was no big deal because (sue me for the opinion, but...) back then, we didn't pretend that, at 16, we didn't know what was up. Everybody did alot more and if a situation went badly, we chalked it up to a bad decision on our part, learned a lesson and moved on
In the Steely Dan "Black Cow" video you talked about hip hop sampling older records for songs. The guitar riff in the beginning is Tone Loc's "Funk Cold Medina".
Yes the '70s for late '70s and '80s were definitely a very wild time figured they would have been others after winger had to mention Christine 16 the lyrics are pretty to the point
A lot of it is the fact that they’re appealing to 15-16 yr olds; when you’re that age you don’t think anything of it!
Gene must have wrote this 🤣🤣🤣🤣
he did
Faith No More's 'Edge of the World' is worse... but it's meant to be...
Also Ted Nugent's Jailbait
Maybe to a lesser extent, Jethro Tull's Aqualung
Though it seems like it's a 70s and 80s taboo thing...
Lusting after teenage girls has always been in music...
Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera were 16 when they came out with their first hits that were extremely sexualized songs and marketed as such and that was the early 2000s
Then you had Miley Cyrus after that....
Wow. Your absolutely right. I didn’t realize that.
The 70s was the tail end of the free love era. The 60s they did it, the 70s they sang about it.
In some States, if the juvenile is 16 or older, AND the partner is within 4 years, the juvenile may legally enter into a relationship. So, if he was 20 or younger when he wrote the song, it would have been legal. Now, it may not keep daddy from shoving that bass up his _$$ sideways. But then, sometimes a song…. Is just a song. (This does not constitute legal advise, and I assume no responsibility for anything. …ever).
When this song was made the age of censent was 16 in the United states
To make you feel EVEN BETTER. Gene Simmons use to be a School Teacher. It was always my least favorite song on the album lol. Keep up the rabbit holes lol Love this channel. lol
You got to Rember they were like 18 when they wrote these if they sung them now at 60 it would be weird
For someone who lives in a country where this would be legal, and can drink alcohol at 18, this reaction is quite an eye opener! Maybe Kiss had been on tour here?! 😆
It's gets worse on their song 'Goin' blind' when he sings the line 'I'm 93 you're 16.'
This song was written for young adolescent boys in school which was actually true for me at time ..but their reminiscing on young boys dreams n desire as a youth..go back n hear the part about his youth
On a side note Tone Loc sampled this song for his song " funky cold medina" ✌️
Funfact, you're hearing eddie van halen and alex van Halen. Gene called them down to help him demo the song while he was managing/producing van halen, and liked it enough he didn't let them redo their parts.
This needs to be verified .. might be bob kulick playing guitar while ace was out toasting trees and cigarette machines 🍷🍷
@@MM1717mm Gene has done several interviews detailing the songs that van halen brothers worked on. Also beginning train sound thingy on running with the devil id from gene and his demos he produced for van halen. Then found out that gene didn't charge them for their masters he made but gave them to them. Was very shocked at how good he treated then and amazed paul and bill aucoin wanted no part in potentially signing then. Talk about dropping the bag
This was a great album! Might as well react to "Love Gun" 🤙😝🎸
I got into KISS when I was like 5 years old.. (yeah..lol..) and this song was on my favorite album, KISS Alive II.
I realize I'm late to this, but I'm dying laughing at all of this.. I was a huge Kiss fan back then but I was 9... Christine Sixteen was a hot older chick to me... Lol... Totally didn't get it until I had daughters of my own...
And you know Tone Loc sampled a piece of this for funky Cold Medina...🥁🤘
That's the way it was in the 60's and 70's. Groupies were young and they loved the bands. Literally.
Looking back in this more awake age. It is kinda weird and crazy to think they just didn't gaf. Especially Gene Simmons. His drug was young groupies.
Same went for Ted Nugent and Motorhead who have a song called "Jailbait". Check em out. This is nothing compared to that.
They began putting logs into fireplaces in the 80s. :)
I can’t believe you are surprised! Haha. We all loved it! Have a listen to it live on Alive 2. Insane. We didn’t care we just loved it. The dude is 17 😆😆😆😆
we where wild back in the 70s and 80s
You have to remember as huge kiss fan when they came out they were singing about and to high school kids was their audience...I was in my early teens when this came out ..made perfect sense then if you were in high school when this came out like I was ..
You can go back further than that. 1973-Ringo Starr You’re sixteen was a number one. Written by The Sherman Brothers of Disney fame
I swear I hear in this music what sounds like “Funky Cold Medina”, by Tone Loc. It comes right after they say “Christine 16“., in the first half of the song, but not in the second half of the song where they’re just saying “Christine 16“ repeatedly. Does anyone else hear that little part or am I crazy?
Tone Loc sampled Christine 16 for Funky Cold Medina, you have a good ear. I never noticed it
@@WhatAboutThemApples Why thank you! 😃
KISS was all about cheeky double-entendres and innuendos. Title track of the album was LOVE GUN.
Wait until you get to KISS' Goin' Blind...
YO ''T''.....THIS SONG WAS SO SO, WHEN THE ALBUM CAME OUT....NO ONE CARED WHAT IT WAS ABOUT....MOST KISS FANS WERE TEENAGERS IN 1978.....WE JUST LIKED THE SONG....BUT THE ALBUM IS CALLED ''LOVE GUN'''....WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT IS ABOUT ???? ....BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA......THE BEST SONGS ARE...''.LOVE GUN''...AND '' I STOLE YOUR LOVE '' ( both Paul Stanley songs )....THEY WERE THE SINGLES......''SHOCK ME'' IS AN ACE FREHELY TUNE AND IT'S PRETTY GOOD TOO !!!
And this was the lead off single to promote this album. Would never fly today
Another BIG hit was titled “Young Girl”, by Gary Puckett. Considered a pedo song. It is still readily available on UA-cam.
Well you got to remember Jerry Lee Lewis the killer legendary man married his 13 year old cousin when he was 23.
The winger song yeah it's those great ones there where it's like yeah you just so you know I'm way underage Christine 16 is like 10 years prior to the winger.
Classic songs of jail bait
If Christine was 16 when Gene wrote this she'd be 61 now.
Well you’ve done “She’s only 17” and “Christine 16”-I guess next up is “TVC 15” by David Bowie? (Oh yes he did)
Ahh the politically incorrectness of the 70's🤨🤪✌️
She is a groupie "she's been around but she's young and clean". Stuff happens, backstage, no doubt.
Seventeen is an incredible song, at least he introduced himself to the girls father. Not just hit it quit it, he has feelings for the girl.
LOL, makes mental note that album was called Love Gun.... digresses.
They'd probably feel like a bunch of dirty ol men if they performed this now...or at least they should! 🤣🤣
The song Domino has a great beat but also makes it clear that she is young “she ain’t old enough to vote”. But it’s a good listen.
Dude you had me Lmao. But back then this was no big deal. I was 17 when this came out and no one thought about it
Skin, Was a lot thicker in those days. People didn't dwell to much on a minor and an adult conversing or consorting. It was a right of passage for a Father, Uncle, Grandfather, etc. to take a Teen Boy somewhere that he can learn the "Ropes" from a mature female professional. It was something we snickered about, "and don't tell your Mother!"
Now since you broached the Subject T, Lets go into "Candy's Gone Bad" GODZ.
Next hit "The Sixteens" SWEET.
Hardly this song was banned on most stations and also police and court didn't take rape and paedophilla seriously
Bro, you freaking rock !🤘🤘🤘🤘
songs that featured a person's age on a song title or lyrics are often scrutinized nowadays because people don't realize that the songwriting is mostly based on the perspective on the younger person. songs that have lyrics from a young teenage crush on an older teenager were common back in the 60's 70's and 89's. because the song were writen and sung by someone over the age 18 or older. it tend to mislead people thinking that a singer is a predictor.
Don't you mean a predator?
Have you ever seen any of their unplugged videos? If not, you should, because you can see another side of Kiss, without all the makeup and costumes. You may like this one, "Kiss-I Still Love You (MTV Unplugged with video)".
He's done this one already, you can search it.
This song is from 1977. The best version is on the Album Alive 2. There is no piano.
I love how you're so shocked by this song's lyrics. I mean, take a look at the album cover, and the album's title. HA! That'll tell you all you need to know.
Yep, we tried to warn you! 😆 KISS was my first concert. I was in 7th grade. I love ‘em, but this song 🫣
Great point about the heartbeat 👍
Yeah, there was no backlash at the time that I ever heard. It was just another song we sang along to. Crazy.
The Rolling Stones have this beat in the 60s. Stray Cat Blues has a guy going after a 14 year old and asks her to bring her mother.
Your reaction is hilarious! Lol. Yeah, not great lyrics for today’s environment. But it’s catchy as hell! If you listen, you’ll notice this song is sampled in Ton Loc’s FunkyCold Medina. You should check out the ultimate KISS rocker…I’ve Had Enough!
I love KISS
i always thought of the bass intro as like jaws
you do have to remember that kiss was a more listened to by teens back then....and marketed twards teens.
