I agree and was so hopeful that Ace would have more of these breakout songs. It's so different from other kiss songs. But atleast we have this. I think he just got lazy by playing kisses simplistic songs where he just had to fill in 45seconds of something for a solo. Perfect for someone struggling with big outside issues. Kiss died when Ace and Peter left! Gene and Paul as far as I'm concerned, continued as mostly a cover band with a good show! Have a great day my friend!
This makes the classic Kiss fan smile. One of the best Kiss songs in the catalogue. . Dont like singing of Singer, but Thayer does a good job sounding pretty sleazy.
Some fans bash the sound quality of HTH because of that garage acoustic back sound. However, Strange Ways wouldn’t be the classic it is today if not for that!
@@nville8795 I said a little too fast. There are four others in this comment section that said too fast. Has nothing to do with age. The faster pace just takes away the original feel of the song which sounds heavier than it does here.
Right ! Just a Little too fast. Takes the Groove and the Vibe ! Although a Great Song done very Good. When you Play a Song, Wich you feel excited about, live ( without Click) then you tend to play it just a Little bit faster!
Hating on Eric and Tommy for wearing the makeup is stupid. It’s Paul and gene you should be mad at since they wanted them in it. I like the tempo of the song sped up some. The studio version is too slow for me. Eric is a great drummer and singer and has been since he originally joined the band and had his first stint with them in the early 90’s
Yes they do. There’s a Kruise planned for 2025, but Gene already said that they won‘t put the makeup on again. As far as I know, Gene & Paul will play there with their solobands.
I don't understand why people give Tommy Thayer so much crap, he is a helluva guitarist, he isn't Ace but so what. He is still a great guitar player. Each guitarist has his own style....they are just different. And who gives a rats ass who is wearing the make up?.....I've seen KISS since the mid seventies.....most of them pretty good shows.
You have a Ferrari and a Volkswagen Golf on your yard. Want something uniqish, drive the Ferrari. Want something reliable and value for money (for the one paying) + with no personality what-so-ever go with the VW Golf. Tommy Thayer is the VW Golf of Rock N Roll.
Ehh I think He play the ace's solos BETTER, Just hear tommy, i mean Ace is Ace but you have to say the truth and if you say that it's not then you're blind.
At the same time you're saying that, I say he's an inspiration for so many people including me. Ace is just that ferrari that you drives because it's a ferrari, not because it's better.
It's really simple, why play a song by a former band member that is NOT participating. That's why people have contempt for this performance. They also never played it live with him. Why? You know the answer. Ace's songs were better, overall. Plain and simple.
Are you saying that Ace Frehley sucks because when he plays live he plays a bunch of kids songs written by Paul Stanley like Detroit rock city, Strutter ECT. Because that's what it sounds like
@@rickthendersonjr understandable. There's just a lot of people who say kiss isnt kiss without frehley and I was just debunking that theory I guess. Nothing against you
I don't care what anyone says: Tommy IS NOT Ace. Tommy is a talented player in his own right, look at his work with Black N Blue. But as a replacement for Ace, I can't respect him as a player. With that being said, I will say, I do respect Tommy for his work with US military soldiers and World War II veterans, not enough people work to highlight their sacrifices and legacy, I'm proud of the work he is doing in that area.
Of course Tommy 's not Ace! He's Tommy and Ace is Ace. That story is old and lame. Tommy 's doin' what he gets paid for and he 's doin' that job really good. Much more professinal than Ace.
@@Noctz_ArtAce quit twice and they begged him to stay twice. The second time after he honored the real farewell tour. They are literally playing Ace's songs. What did Peter do the last time he played with KISS? Oh, that's right he played some of the best drums of his career and they fired him claiming he was too old. In reality they didn't like Peter and they wanted a cheaper yes man. Stop towing the KISS corporate line.
One of the first times I'll say KISS cover bands played this better live, probably doesn't help this version is without Ace and Peter but even then it just feels off.
I respect them as players and think they make the band sound very tight. But, there’s something about that original KISS sound. Can’t beat it in my opinion.
When they pretend to be ace & peter... Though the blame lies ironically on paul & gene for promoting the charade & specifically on peter & ace for signing away the rights to their characters.
Naw Quiet Hardly , Actually Not even a Decent Cover . No Pete , No Frehley .. Naw Baby Naw... Hell Put Bruce Back in . I mean Really. Bruce is Much better Guitarist than Tommy boy.. Hey Better Still Where's Ace & Pete , Oh that's Right , They won't Work for Peanuts... ACCK... Sorry in Advance to all those Die Hard Tribute Band Payers...
Greg Roland if you don’t like it, don’t watch it! And Peter and Ace have been fired because they weren’t able to play, because more important for them takin drugs and drinking alcohol, day in day out!
Seems like you’re living in the past. Tommy and Eric belong as much there, as Ace and Peter once belonged there. But that time is long gone! And everyone who‘s not totally stupid, knows why they‘re not in KISS anymore.
Idontlikethatshit if you don‘t like, just don‘t watch it! Of course Tommy ‘s not Ace! Tommy ‘s Tommy and Ace is Ace! I think I don‘t need to tell you the reasons, why Ace ‘s not in KISS these days!
All these fucking Ace fans still crying about Ace not being in the band. He fucking quit the band TWICE. For all the shenanigans he pulled off, Gene and Paul never fired him. HE QUIT. If these fools want him back in the band they should tell their beloved Ace to quit being a prick.
Terrible? You must have heard it differently than I. Sounded great to me. A little faster maybe but definitely nothing wrong with the guitars or Eric's vocals.
Sounds nothing like Peter and the guitar is nothing Ike Ace playing. Give it a rest Gene and Paul. The two greediest and backstabbing people on the planet
Of course they don‘t sound like Drunken Ace and Drug Peter! Tommy and Eric did more for KISS, than the other two ever did! For you it’s time to move on and to stop living in the past.
The original studio version has arguably one of Ace's greatest solo's IMHO

Timeless bulldozer groove! Such a good song.
This makes the classic Kiss fan smile. One of the best Kiss songs in the catalogue. . Dont like singing of Singer, but Thayer does a good job sounding pretty sleazy.
I'll always say this was Kiss' nastiest sounding groove.
Had the opportunity to see KISS in their prime
Eric nailed this song! Such an underrated kiss song
It’s amazing how Eric Singer, Eric Carr and Peter Crisse’s vocals sound so similar to each other’s.
WTF are u in about get some hearing aids
Some fans bash the sound quality of HTH because of that garage acoustic back sound. However, Strange Ways wouldn’t be the classic it is today if not for that!
Pretty cool. Love this song. Done a little too fast here. Should have been done live so it would have been on Alive!
Too fast? Are you 79 years old?

Agreed. Feels rushed. The slower pace gives it such a nasty groove.
Cool....the kruises get all the good times!!
Thanks again

They look stupid in the makeup. Create your own character or ditch the makeup.
do not like them because they are not special.
Nice Eric´s voice.
I bet they continue to do Kruises....
Yes they do. There’s a Kruise planned for 2025, but Gene already said that they won‘t put the makeup on again. As far as I know, Gene & Paul will play there with their solobands.

Kiss ISNT Kiss without Ace.
Goes waay to fast
Too fast
Compare this to the Ace Frehley solo concert version, ua-cam.com/video/tEtBOmaw694/v-deo.html , Ace fucking BLOWS AWAY Tommy Thayer!!!
I'm not a huge fan of the "new" kiss line up , but God damn this is hotter than hell!
To fast no feel
Ok, your opinion. What should I say. Tell this Paul and Gene.
La bandera de NOB ahí, un estallo
Tommy try learning the actual solo
They never play this song... he's improvising
To FAST!!!!!!!!!!
ace se caga en su tumb...ah no.... peter se cagaria en su tu..... ah no...
hahahaha que lastima que se despidan asi....

I say Tommy is better than Ace. Not prime Ace but to be fair Ace was only great for a few years. After the 80s he's been a shell of himself
Can't believe they had the balls to do this song without ace . They should have been doing this on the re-union and right up to farewell 2001
Why should they only play it together with Ace? It‘s still a KISS, not an Ace Frehley Solo Song.
Ace and Peter had their chance and they fucked with everything twice.

One of the first times I'll say KISS cover bands played this better live, probably doesn't help this version is without Ace and Peter but even then it just feels off.
This song should never be played w/out Ace/Peter.
This is a Kiss cover band
Nice try Tommy, but, uh .... NO!

With out make up should be bruce on lead but tommy aint that bad almost like a mark stjohn bruce mix
Tommy is no Ace.Period.
@@spacecommander3219 he's not supposed be Ace. He actually shows up on time, knows how to play consistently, and isn't a hard person to work with.
Horror. Who are these who want to cover KISS can not?
The vocals of Peter Criss and Aces playing is what made this song great. Not so much here

Lmao if it was anyone else you’d be okay with it. Just pure hatred for tommy and Eric
Terrible? You must have heard it differently than I. Sounded great to me. A little faster maybe but definitely nothing wrong with the guitars or Eric's vocals.
Look it's Fake Frehley and Cheater Criss. without makeup.
