I've been a Kiss fan since I was 12 and I'm now 40. I love your voice so I bought the disc when it came out and I'm very pleased with the quality of the music.
I usually don't pay much attention to the lyrics up to the point where my wife left me for another guy a few weeks ago. I have two kids with her
and we had a great life so I was and in some way still am shattered.
I was feeling so low but your song Live To Win was a turning point for me. I still play it on a constant basis everyday and it means a lot to me. Whenever I have the blues or I fall into despair, I put the song on and I feel better.
I've been following you for so long that it's almost like you're a friend talking to me when I listen to that song.
So basically, I just want to thank you for writing it since I feel we have much in common and you probably went thru a hard period yourself.
I have been a KISS fan since the early 80's I am 35 years old, my brother was an avid collector of all KISS albums and posters. I went to see KISS 3 times in concert and have thought they were excellent.
I am glad Paul decided to go solo with a new album and tour. I think the Album Live to Win is really cool. And also I hope Paul knows I really loved KISS unplugged back in 1996 when he did the reunion tour with Ace, Gene, Peter Chris, Bruce Kulick and Eric Singer.
I loved it, and own the CD and DVD of the songs they did live unplugged.
Keep the music coming Paul,
Best wishes for A Merry Christmas KISSMAS !!!

I'd like to thank you for the new album. The songs helped me to go through some rough times I've had lately.
I was listening to it on my cd player at the hospital when my 1 month baby girl had to stay in there for 10 days.
I was also listening to the album on my way to college, every day. Last semester before graduation, final exams, projects and all that was suffocatin' me but "Live to Win" became my mantra and I went through it all.
But now, I dont feel like listening to any songs, not just yours but any songs at all. My dad died on December 13rd and I feel so screwed up and totally empty. I know I'll make my way through all that as well, and I'll be doing that by listening to your album, so I can cheer up.
One thing is for sure... You are the central member of KISS for good reason as you have always soared through your responsibilities. You played wrote, produced and performed on every KISS album and handle the responsibilities to the fans like a true gentleman.
Paul - We're enjoying your CD! It has thrown me back in time to 1978, when I saw KISS at the "omlet" in Atlanta.
Ginger is helping me here remind everone what a great CD this is, if you are still trying to figure out what to buy someone on your KISSmas list. My husband and I enjoy your music and both my teenage daughters do as well. They wear KISS stuff to school. Their favorite article of clothing, which they are good about sharing is a pink KISS-N-TELL hoodie.
In this photo, you'll notice Ginger is doing her Gene impression! I put peanut butter on the back of the CD in order to keep her from wandering off, so she is trying to eat the peanut butter. Ginger really has a long tounge for a 3 lb. dog. She is a full-grown long haired Chihuahua.
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday, whatever their religion. Enjoy this national American holiday and time off from the daily grind.
My name is Chris Mascara. Yes--that's my real name.
Congratulations on your solo release.I'm proud to be a life-long fan. I am an independent Boston rocker, and starred as Jesus in Boston Rock Opera's "Jesus Christ Superstar" in 2000, costarring with Gary Cherone (Extreme) as Judas.
Been kickin' in Boston for years and have been dubbed "Avant Rock God." You should check out my website, press, downloads, and bio. If your tour brings you thru Boston or New England you should seriously consider my band Mascara opening for you, cause I bring it. It aint glam--its my name, my rock, my way.
You totally were a role model for me as a kid. And shaped THIS musician's life goals. To rock.
You were great at the House of Blues. I wish I could have been up front. The show fanstastic -great showman-ship , I've got to tell you I got lucky on sunday 11/26/06.I woke up a little late and manage to go to Target store and pick up one of you limited autograph guitars. Ah you made my year fulfilled!

Have to say congratulations on Live to Win! been waiting a long time well worth the wait! Just wanted to say how you have touched and influenced my life over 30 years I have listened to you guys! Sometimes people wonder why I am such a fan I just tell them you have to live kiss and you have to know the whole story and what it means!Looking back on my life I think of all the times your music has saved me and pushed me to hold on!You guys are the best and always will be ! Thank you hope to see you again in Ottawa.
I am an avid KISS fan and I wanted to let you how awesome it was to meet you. You may remember me I was the guy in the wheelchair, who came out to meet you in Rochester Hills, Michigan. I forgot to ask you a few questions like if you still lived in New York? I was born in Detroit and that was where I joined the KISS Army in 1976 . I'd just like to tell you what a huge role KISS has played in my life. I dont expect anything else from you. I got hit by a car in 1982 & I had to wait till I got out of the hospital to go see you guys in concert. Everything I heard in the years was true, You guys we're awesome! In 1996, I traveled to Toronto Canada to see you in make up. Your show in Detroit show sold out too quick. Anyway, I hope to hear from you.
Just wanted to drop you a note. I met Gene at the Riverchase Galleria for the KISS cologne. I'm a US Marine that is now retried because of two back injuries and two heart attack's this past May. I went out today and purchased your guitar from Target. Thanks so much for making it possible for me to get an autograph guitar from you. I hope that one day I can meet you and have lunch or dinner with you. You guys mean a lot in my life and others.
