The song is also available on the KISS 40 compilation as well as the KISS version of the CD single, which also includes a version of Rock & Roll All Nite by Momoiro Clover Z.

From The Journal: "GENE SIMMONS — BASSIST and vocalist in Kiss and one of the world’s most shameless self-promoters — was in Dublin yesterday.
Photocall Ireland photographer Sam Boal captured these images of the star, as TDs went about their business inside.
Today Simmons told Ray D’Arcy he was in the Dáil as a guest of Fine Gael TD Pat Breen. The two have a mutual friend in US-based Irish businessman Billy Lawless.
Every now and then I drop into places that I find fascinating, and there’s nothing more fascinating than Ireland*, is there? I guess because of my silly hair and all the rest of the accoutrement people tend to take me to big buildings to meet important people, I have no idea why."
