"I Was Made for Lovin' You" is a song by American hard rock band Kiss, originally released on their 1979 album, Dynasty. It was released as the A-side of their first single from the album, with "Hard Times" as the B-side.
==History==
The song has become a permanent staple in Kiss's live performances.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDZggIp3t1s |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211221/cDZggIp3t1s |archive-date=December 21, 2021 |url-status=live|title=Kiss Budokan Hall Japan 1988 – I Was Made For Lovin' You |publisher=YouTube |date=September 14, 2007 |access-date=October 15, 2016}}{{cbignore}} The band's performance of the song at their 30th anniversary show in Melbourne, Australia, was accompanied by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, who wore Kiss-style makeup with their tuxedos.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1skW3m7av8 |title=YouTube |publisher=YouTube |access-date=October 15, 2016}}{{cbignore}}{{Dead Youtube links|date=February 2022}}
At first Desmond Child said, "Paul wanted to write a good disco song and I decided to help him with that. Paul started to write lyrics and chords then I played the song on the guitar and said 'OK, we'll do something to improve this and make it really a good song.{{'"}}
"I Was Made for Lovin' You" draws heavily from the disco style that was popular in late-1970s United States. According to legend, the members of the band were in conflict with their producers, who wanted the band to shift to a more commercial sound. In response, the band argued that lucrative disco songs could be written by anyone in a short time frame. The story goes that the song's demo was completed in mere hours after the bet. While the story is unproven, Paul Stanley, who co-wrote the song with Desmond Child and Vini Poncia, has stated that it was a conscious effort on his part to prove how easy it was to write and record a hit disco song.Leaf, David and Ken Sharp. KISS: Behind the Mask: The Official Authorized Biography, Warner Books, 2003. {{ISBN|0-446-53073-5}} Child confirms that he and Stanley wrote the verses together in an hour at SIR Studios, while the "Motown-influenced" chorus was penned by Stanley and Poncia after Child had left the studio.{{Cite book |last=Linnaeus |first=Carl |url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/1317823645 |title=KISS - Den sista dynastin. |date=2022 |others=Alex Bergdahl |publisher=Fifth Island Music |isbn=978-91-987448-0-4 |oclc=1317823645}} Gene Simmons revealed in a 2018 interview that he always disliked the song because of his vocal part.{{cite web |url=https://www.nme.com/news/music/gene-simmons-hates-kiss-song-i-was-made-for-loving-you-2391435 |title=Gene Simmons reveals why he hates Kiss' classic song 'I Was Made For Lovin' You' |last=Krol |first=Charlotte |work=NME |date=October 18, 2018 |access-date=October 23, 2018}}
Although Peter Criss appears in the video and on the album cover, he did not actually play on the track. As with most of the Dynasty album, session drummer Anton Fig took his place, as Poncia had deemed Criss unfit to play. There is a bootleg audio recording of the writing sessions for the song in which Stanley mentions Criss's name a couple of times, indicating he was present during the arranging of the song. Stanley plays the rhythm guitar while Ace Frehley provided the guitar solo. The rumours that Gene Simmons did not play bass on the recording are incorrect; it is now confirmed by Vini Poncia and others that it is Simmons on the recording.{{Cite book |last=Alex Bergdahl |first=Carl Linnaeus |title=Den Sista Dynastin |publisher=Gain |year=2022 |isbn=9789198744828 |location=Sweden |language=Swedish |trans-title=The Final Dynasty}} "The Return of Kiss" was how Dynasty was billed in commercials and advertisements for the album.
Release
"I Was Made for Lovin' You" was Kiss's first songwriting collaboration with Desmond Child, who also wrote songs for the albums Animalize, Asylum, Crazy Nights, Smashes, Thrashes & Hits, and Hot in the Shade.{{citation |author=C.K. Lendt|title=Kiss and Sell: The Making of a Supergroup (1997)|publisher=Billboard Books}} While not as drastic as the 1979 "Radio Single Mix", the length of the song is edited by some eleven seconds down to 4 minutes and 16 seconds. Like the 1979 edit, the beginning measures of the song are reduced from four to two and the harmonizing following the guitar solo is halved.
The music video of "I Was Made for Lovin' You" was filmed on June 20, 1979, in the Savannah Civic Center in Savannah, Georgia, and was directed by John Goodhue.{{citation|title=Kiss: I Was Made for Lovin' You (1979)|website=iMDb|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7529428/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_2}} After the show was canceled,{{citation|author1=Jeff Suhs|author2=Curt Gooch|title=Kiss Alive Forever: The Complete Touring History (2002)|publisher=Billboard Books}} it was decided to use the already completed stage to film two videos. A promotional video was shot featuring the song performed on the Dynasty stage set, consisting simply of the band performing the song.{{citation|title=Kiss - I Was Made For Lovin' You|website=YouTube|date=June 13, 2019|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhIsAZO5gl0}} It was not included in the "Kissology" DVD series.
The B-side of the single is the album track "Hard Times", which was written by Ace Frehley.{{citation|title=Goldmine Records and Prices (2004)|publisher=Krause Publications.}}
Reception
"I Was Made for Lovin' You" was the band's second gold single, selling over 1 million copies. The single was certified gold in the U.S. on August 16, 1979,{{cite web|title=RIAA Gold & Platinum database |website = Recording Industry Association of America|url=https://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?resultpage=1&table=SEARCH_RESULTS&action=&title=&artist=kiss&format=SINGLE&debutLP=&category=&sex=&releaseDate=&requestNo=&type=&level=&label=&company=&certificationDate=&awardDescription=&catalogNo=&aSex=&rec_id=&charField=&gold=&platinum=&multiPlat=&level2=&certDate=&album=&id=&after=&before=&startMonth=1&endMonth=1&startYear=1958&endYear=2009&sort=Artist&perPage=25 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924152533/http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?resultpage=1&table=SEARCH_RESULTS&action=&title=&artist=kiss&format=SINGLE&debutLP=&category=&sex=&releaseDate=&requestNo=&type=&level=&label=&company=&certificationDate=&awardDescription=&catalogNo=&aSex=&rec_id=&charField=&gold=&platinum=&multiPlat=&level2=&certDate=&album=&id=&after=&before=&startMonth=1&endMonth=1&startYear=1958&endYear=2009&sort=Artist&perPage=25 |url-status=dead |archive-date=September 24, 2015 |access-date=February 7, 2009 }} and in Canada on August 1, 1979.{{cite web|title=CRIA certified awards|url=http://www.cria.ca/cert_db_search.php?page=1&wclause=WHERE+artist_name+like+%27%25kiss%25%27+ORDER+BY+cert_date%2C+cert_award+&rcnt=32&csearch=20&nextprev=1|access-date=February 10, 2009|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120428130225/http://www.musiccanada.com/goldplatinum.aspx|archive-date=April 28, 2012}}
The song was one of the band's few singles to chart in the UK in the 1970s, peaking at No. 50.
The single reached No. 11 on the U.S. Billboard singles chart and No. 1 in the Canadian RPM national singles chart (the band's second chart-topping single in that country, following "Shout It Out Loud"). It further became a hit in Australia, reaching No. 2 on the Kent Music Report in 1979, and in New Zealand, topping the RIANZ Singles Chart. It also charted in Western Europe; it became a top-20 hit in Sweden, a top-10 hit in Norway, and a number-two hit in Switzerland and West Germany. In France and the Netherlands, it reached No. 1. In the UK, it stalled at number 50.
Billboard described "I Was Made for Lovin' You" as a "catchy song" which is more melodic than previous Kiss efforts and that incorporates some disco influence and "heavy guitars."{{cite news|title=Top Single Picks|newspaper=Billboard|access-date=July 8, 2020|page=87|date=May 26, 1978 |url=https://worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Billboard/70s/1979/Billboard%201979-05-26.pdf}}
Some Kiss fans dismissed it as a sell-out, with Rolling Stone magazine's David Fricke writing, "The Kiss army is going to mutiny when they hear 'I Was Made for Lovin’ You,' the disco-infected leadoff track on the Masked Marvels’ latest album. They'll demand to know why their heroes, after years of rallying the troops into battle against disco and other threatening schlock, have turned tail and joined forces with uptown popsters like producer Vini Poncia (whose soft-rock credentials include LPs by Ringo Starr and Melissa Manchester) and singer/tunesmith Desmond Child (who cowrote the offending song with Kiss’ Paul Stanley)."{{cite news|title=Rolling Stone: (Album Reviews) "Dynasty" by David Fricke|date=August 23, 1979|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-album-reviews/dynasty-206128/}} Lance Tawzer, curator of a museum exhibit chronicling the infamous Disco Demolition Night riot of 1979, suggested this song may have helped inspire that event, telling the Chicago Tribune, "That's Kiss' disco song, 'I Was Made for Lovin' You... That's the moment when they jumped that shark."{{cite news|title=Disco Demolition is now a museum show|newspaper=Chicago Tribune|author=Steve Johnson|date=June 28, 2017|url=https://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/museums/ct-disco-demolition-elmhurst-museum-ent-0629-20170628-story.html}}
Despite the backlash, the song has become a concert staple over the years, with a different arrangement that de-emphasizes the song's disco elements.
