"Forever" is a Kiss song from the Hot in the Shade album. It peaked at number 8[1] on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, making it the band's first American Top 40 single since "I Was Made for Lovin' You" reached number 11 in 1979. It was the band's seventh and, to date, last Top 20 US single. It also reached number 17[1] on Billboard's Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks. The song was co-written by guitarist/vocalist Paul Stanley and American singer/songwriter Michael Bolton, who was then at the peak of his commercial popularity, and with whom guitarist Bruce Kulick had played previous to Kiss.
Musically, "Forever" is a power ballad. It begins with Stanley singing over an acoustic guitar intro, with the full band coming in for the first refrain.
"Forever" was released as a music video that received heavy airplay on MTV, attaining the #1 position on the video channel's "Most Requested Videos" show several times. It is perhaps the most understated video Kiss has released, as it showed the band (then consisting of Stanley, Gene Simmons, Bruce Kulick and Eric Carr) playing the song in an empty room.
Despite the success of "Forever", Hot in the Shade became the first Kiss album to fail to be certified platinum by the RIAA since 1982's Creatures of the Night.

Planets in astrology
Planets in astrology have a meaning different from the modern astronomical understanding of what a planet is. Before the age of telescopes, the night sky was thought to consist of two very similar components: fixed stars, which remained motionless in relation to each other, and "wandering stars" (Ancient Greek: ἀστέρες πλανῆται asteres planetai), which moved relative to the fixed stars over the course of the year.
To the Greeks and the other earliest astronomers, this group comprised the five planets visible to the naked eye, and excluded the Earth. Although strictly the term "planet" applied only to those five objects, the term was latterly broadened, particularly in the Middle Ages, to include the Sun and the Moon (sometimes referred to as "Lights"), making a total of seven planets. Astrologers retain this definition today.
To ancient astrologers, the planets represented the will of the gods and their direct influence upon human affairs. To modern astrologers the planets represent basic drives or urges in the unconscious, or energy flow regulators representing dimensions of experience. They express themselves with different qualities in the twelve signs of the zodiac and in the twelve houses. The planets are also related to each other in the form of aspects.
