"God Gave Rock and Roll to You" is a 1973 song by the British band Argent and covered by Kiss (with modified lyrics) in 1991. ==Versions== Argent recorded the song in 1971 during the sessions for their album ''All Together Now'', but it originally did not appear as an album track until 1973's ''In Deep'', and was released as a successful single at that time. The 1997 CD re-release of ''All Together Now'' has the track included as a bonus. The original lyrics include a reference to British pop singer Cliff Richard, known for his Christianity. The Christian rock band Petra first released a cover version of the song in their 1977 album ''Come and Join Us''. This version had modified lyrics in the verses from the Argent original, while the chorus remained largely unchanged. Petra then re-recorded and released a somewhat updated version for their 1984 album ''Beat the System''. In 1989, the British band The Truth released a version. In 1991, the song was notably covered by Kiss under the title ''God Gave Rock 'N' Roll to You II''. This version's lyrics more closely followed the Petra version of the song. It was released for the film ''Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey''.〔 The song has also been covered by Bride, Midtown and Oficina G3. Unrest remade the song as "God Gave Rock & Roll To You III" for their 1992 ''Bavarian Mods'' EP. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「God Gave Rock and Roll to You」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
