Goin' Blind

Goin' Blind

"Goin' Blind" is a song by Kiss written by Gene Simmons and Stephen Coronel, sometimes referred to as "Going Blind". The song originally appeared on the band's second album, 1974's "Hotter Than Hell" . The original working title for the song was "Little Lady".

It was rarely performed live by Kiss until it appeared in acoustic form, on the "Kiss Unplugged" MTV performance, appearing on the subsequent live album from the show. It next appeared on "", again in acoustic form although this time the song was performed with the Melbourne Symphony Ensemble.

In December 2005, the band released "Rock the Nation", a double-DVD documentary of the 2004 tour. It included, as a bonus track, the first commercially-released live electric version of "Goin' Blind".

The Melvins recorded the song in 1993 for their "Houdini" album and again in 2005 for their "A Live History of Gluttony and Lust" live album. Dinosaur Jr recorded the song in 1994 for the "" tribute album. The Melvins version was also submitted for the CD, but Gene Simmons went with the Dinosaur Jr version.

A neo-baroque version appeared on Noel Gallagher's "String Quartet Tribute to Kiss" album.
