All For the N's and &'s
When I listen to All For the Love of Rock & Roll (2012), I honestly ask myself why Kiss, in the course of their prowl through music history didn't also write a song called We're Gonna Rock You. Or even better: We'll Rock You (1).
I'm willing to bet that the verse sequence of an almost identically titled song by a certain British rock band must have been virtually waiting in yearning anticipation for decades just to get into the eager hands of Gene or Paul and be processed by them one day. And if that had already happened, that would not surprise me at all.
As I recall a follow-up album for Monster (2012) was announced around 2015/16, which unfortunately never went into deeper studio production, but I guess at least some demos must have been made for it. If I were to ask a statistical physicist or a medium to calculate or predict the probability of a song called "We'll Rock You" appearing on one of Gene's demos, I for one would know exactly what I'd be betting my money on.
I can literally read the credits in my mind's eye: Written by Gene Simmons (2).
Side Note:
(1) In some interview in a magazine in the 90s Gene said that the main difference between Kiss and Queen was the point of view, and if Kiss had written a song like We Will Rock You (1977) they would have called it I Will Rock You. What this could have to do with I Love it Loud (1982) is, of course, a story for another time. But I guess you understand what I was getting at above anyway.
(2) I'm kind of sorry that the name Eric Singer hasn't been mentioned once, although this is one of the rare opportunities for him to sing an album track. Next time, and there will most definitively be a next time .
I decided to use the Ram Jam version for this one. The links are both highlighted at their similar verses. Jesus, they even start at exactly the same second:

YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THEY BUILT A HOME AND A BEAUTIFUL LIFE IN A TRAGIC DYSTOPIAN WORLD. THEY HAD 16 YEARS TOGETHER AND THEY DIED IN EACH OTHER'S ARMS. THEY GREW STRAWBERRIES AND WATERED THEIR PLANTS AND PAINTED AND COOKED AND THEY LOVED EACH OTHER 😭😭😭😭😭 THEY WERE EACH OTHER'S PURPOSE 😭😭😭😭

Frank once had to beg for resources just to paint the house and Bill was reluctant because he didn’t understand it.
At the end of their lives, we see Frank’s paintings everywhere, all over their house and town. Which means that he not only was able to get Bill to see the importance of maintaining art and beauty, but that Bill went out of his way to make sure Frank always had paint on hand.
That just goes to show the strength of their love and Bill’s character development. One of the most romantic queer media pieces I’ve ever watched. Beautiful, gutting, perfect.

Something I really love about The Last Of Us are these subtle little moments that showcase the real intelligence required for survival.
Bill wearing his hat in the dark during that shootout to keep the rainwater out of his eyes.
Bill didn't get shot because he was standing out in the open. The flamethrowers would have been too bright for the gunmen to see him. He was shot because he gave away his position when he yelled.
Joel seeing the bleach on top of the refrigerator, which is what made him think to look in the fridge for battery components.
Tess's skill with social engineering warranting an entire post of its own.
Ellie noticing Joel's hearing being shot on his right.
Honestly basically everything Bill did.
Like, they earned it, and you can see it in so many little moments.
Then you have Frank, who fell in a hole, and won the apocalypse. And I respect this dichotomy SO MUCH.

"August 29, 2023. If you find this, please do not come into the bedroom. We left the windows open so that the house wouldn't smell, but it will probably be a sight. I'm guessing you found this, Joel, because anyone else would've been electrocuted or blown up by one of my traps hehehehe. Take anything you need. The bunker code is the same as the gate code, but in reverse. Anyway, I never liked you. But still, it's like we're friends. Almost. And I respect you. So, I'm gonna tell you something because you're probably the only person who will understand: I used to hate the world, and I was happy when everyone died. But I was wrong, because there was one person worth saving. That's what I did. I saved him, then I protected him. That's why men like you and me are here. We have a job to do, and god help any motherfuckers who stand in our way. I leave you all of my weapons and equipment. Use them to keep Tess safe."
