KISS / Peter Criss - Beth [ FULL HD Symphonic version ]

Some of you, I am sure, know the group/band named KISS... Sort of heavy metal and surely a strong ROCK band from years ago... This is one of my favorite KISS songs and shows another side to the famous group... I bring you "Beth" sung by Peter Criss from KISS!!!

Some background:

"Filmed in Sydney, Australia in February 2003. KISS consisted of Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons (who else ? ) original member Peter Criss and Tommy Thayer .

When "Detroit Rock City" was released in mid-August 1976 it failed to make much of an impact on the charts. The three anthemic releases ("Shout It Out Loud," "Flaming Youth," and "Detroit Rock City") were failing to push the album, however some radio stations soon started playing the soft and emotional B-side, "Beth." The impact this had quickly resulted in wide exposure for both the band and the album. By mid-September Casablanca had issued "Beth" as the A-side of a single, backed with "Detroit Rock City." The resulting single hit #7 on both the Billboard and Cashbox singles charts and provided KISS with their first hit and a RIAA gold single (certified January 5, 1977).

In a way "Beth" was the savior of both KISS and the "Destroyer" album. At the time the album had stagnated in terms of sales, and the singles being released weren't working to boost sales. The single was awarded a People's Choice award, tied with "Disco Duck" by Rick Dees and His Cast of Idiots. Lydia Criss accepted the award on behalf of the band on February 10, 1977 while the band continued to tour. KISS pre-recorded a short acceptance message during their January 28 show in Detroit that was played after they were announced winners." YouTube Channel, -

LYRICS:

"Beth" by KISS

Beth, I hear you callin'
But I can't come home right now
Me and the boys are playin'
And we just can't find the sound

Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them callin'
Oh, Beth what can I do
Beth what can I do

You say you feel so empty
That our house just ain't a home
And I'm always somewhere else
And you're always there alone

Just a few more hours
And I'll be right home to you
I think I hear them callin'
Oh, Beth what can I do
Beth what can I do

Beth, I know you're lonely
And I hope you'll be alright
'Cause me and the boys will be playin'
All night

I hope you enjoy it...
