The Complete KISS Singles Chart Action, 1974-2000

A brief introductory note: For the US singles, if it ain't listed here, it didn't chart in the Billboard Top-100 (unless Billboard made errors). I'm not including Hard Rock specific charts which are really a bit pathetic. This is from the mainstream singles charts, but will give you a good idea of how the singles performed over a period of time... You'll even garner some interesting trivia, like:

"I Was Made For Lovin' You", KISS' second Gold single didn't even make it into the top-10!

Current US RIAA singles tally: 2 Gold Singles

Quick US facts:
Single with longest chart appearance: "Beth" (21 Weeks)
Single with shortest chart appearance: "Let's Put The X In Sex" (2 Weeks)

- means that the particular single wasn't released in that country either/or didn't chart...

I would eventually like to add Italy, and Japan to this list. Anyone?
