"Kiss of Death" was probably written after recording the second album. I still haven't heard any rehearsal/studio version of this song, so it wasn't played for so long. Fortunately, some audience live recordings survived and we can hear it today. Parts of that song (especially the chorus) was later used by Randy in Ozzy's "You Lookin At Me' Lookin At You'".
The song is taken from the set from Whiskey A Go-Go, Hollywood, CA, USA, 28.12.1978.
Line-up:
Kevin DuBrow - vocals
Randy Rhoads - guitar
Rudy Sarzo - bass
Drew Forsyth - drums
Lyrics (please help me with them once again!):
Fire is burning, deep in my soul
Wheels turning, they make me loose control
(..)on me
'Cause you're kiss of death, 'cause you're gonna be mad
You got me under control
Kiss of death, such as (...) that I had
Don't stop, I go
'Cause I'm gonna be gone
(..), I need to set to say
Can't see them pounding, pounding, pounding, it's gonna make me pay
(...) blew my face, gonna burn the heart
'Cause you're kiss of death, 'cause you're gonna be mad
You got me under control
Kiss of death, such as (...) that I had
Don't stop, I go
'Cause I'm gonna be gone
'Cause you're kiss of death, 'cause you're gonna be mad
You got me under control
Kiss of death, such as (...) that I had
Don't stop, I go
'Cause I'm gonna be gone
It's like a kiss of death
It keeps hard to be mad
It's like standing back
It's just a (...) that I had
It's like a kiss of death
