Title: Kiss and The Beach Boys
Post by: dmcguire70 on November 16, 2011, 05:44:12 AM
I found this video on you tube and It seems Brian had the melody for the Kiss song I Was Made For Loving You well before Kiss did.
I always thought Brian was ahead of his time! :o :o :o

That melody is just the minor scale up and down so...

Top: "I was made for lovin' you, baby..."
BG: "The heroes, the heroes, the heroes and villains..."

True, but it's the same rythme patterns as well.

Yup, it's been mentioned here on the board before. They would have to have payed royalties for that. The funny thing though is that every time I hear the Bicycle Rider theme I get the Doves' melodyline in my head. Quite a cool line (kinda sounds like the cello thing on the session box).

It's funny that when I heard the piano line on the box my mind was blown, and somehow I NEVER noticed that the fuzz bass on the chorus of Worms uses the exact same line until a couple days ago. So I guess there was a precedent for the piano line, and it's not just that Paul Stanley is a time traveler who copped his melody lines from some Beach Boys unknown studio noodling. Which is too bad, because that would be way cooler.

Yeah, can't believe I never noticed it earlier either!

So apparently Paul Stanley has no hearing in his right ear?
