I’m sure I’ve forgot some. I liked a lot of the 80’s albums, but not songs that they played a lot during the tours or afterword. And I left off some of my favorite songs from the solo albums. Just my two cents!
It’s been fun seeing everybody’s KI$$ Lists and glad to see the high number of posts. While often KI$$ has, and continues, to create a lot of polarizing issues, the activity on this site indicates to me that we are all passionate fans of the band. We may not all like the current tribute version of the band, we may not all like that their live albums are not really “live”, we may not all care that they had “ghost” musicians, etc…but that is our emotions as fans and the passion we have for KI$$, and a reminder of how special this band was/is to each of us.
Speaking for myself, no band has ever topped the passion I had for the 70s era of KI$$. That era of the band was, and still is, special to me.
It’s too hard for me to pick Top 20 KI$$ songs, so I’ll just wus out and pick all the songs on the entire Alive album (except Nothing To Lose)…yeah, I know not 20 songs, but I wussed out, remember? :o)
Ha ha, that’s not really Stallone in Rocky II, it’s a stunt double.
Ruins the entire franchise.
