1985 single by Kiss
"Tears Are Falling" is a song by American rock band Kiss. It was released as the lead single from the band`s 1985 studio album Asylum.
Background
The track was written and sung by vocalist/guitarist Paul Stanley. It is one of Kiss` few songs since the 1970s to have been solely created by him. It would also be Stanley`s last individual composition until "Loving You Without You Now" on his 2006 solo album Live to Win.
Reception
Cash Box said it has "a distinctive chorus hook and a pop arrangement."[3]
Music video
A video to promote the single was filmed in London in September 1985, and was directed by David Mallet. It was one of three videos produced in promotion of the `Asylum` album, along with `Uh! All Night` and `Who Wants to Be Lonely`. Despite the low production values of the `Tears Are Falling` video, it was heavily played on MTV`s Dial MTV phone video-request show for several months, until a new ruling stated that the requested videos had to be only a few weeks old to qualify.
Chart performance
The song enjoyed minor success when it was released as a single in the United States and United Kingdom. It peaked at number 20 on Billboard`s Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks and 51 on the Billboard Hot 100, meanwhile peaking at 57 in the UK Singles Chart.
Personnel
- Paul Stanley - lead and backing vocals, rhythm guitar, bass guitar
- Gene Simmons - backing vocals
- Bruce Kulick - lead guitar, backing vocals
- Eric Carr - drums, backing vocals
- Allan Schwartzberg - additional stereo drum overdubs
