"Thrills In the Night" is a song by the American hard rock band KISS featured on their 1984 album Animalize, and released as a single in 1985. The song was written by KISS guitarist/vocalist Paul Stanley and ex-Plasmatics bassist Jean Beauvoir.
Two videos were made to promote the song, but only one was commercially released which featured the band playing in front of a live audience.[1] The video would be the first with KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick, who replaced the departed Mark St. John earlier in 1984.
The song is about a woman who works a 9 to 5 job in an ordinary "professional" work environment, and also works as a prostitute at night, and speaks of the irony in that no one that knows her from her day life could possibly be aware of what she does at night.
