Kiss released "Crazy Crazy Nights" in 1987 as the near-title song of their album Crazy Nights, a Paul Stanley lyric that producer Ron Nevison buffed to a high shine for Mercury. It's an anthem aimed straight at the cheap seats, and it knows it.
America mostly shrugged: the single stalled at 65 on the Billboard Hot 100 and 37 on the Album Rock Tracks chart. Britain was another story. It climbed to number four there, the band's first UK top ten and, level with "God Gave Rock 'n' Roll to You II", their biggest hit in that country, and it went top ten in Ireland and Norway as well; a BPI silver certification followed in 2019. Jean Pellerin and Doug Freel directed the video, shot at the Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles in August 1987.
