I thought I would check and see if anything new was on the ol “official” website. The whole site is GONE.

VinnieVincent.com

If it was offline for a bit, it’s back up now.

Oops, let me revise... I can get to it fine from some browsers, but am having difficulty using Safari on my phone.

Hey, Fabienne-

Just checked again and am having hit and miss luck pulling it up — sometimes it comes up, sometimes it doesn’t. You’re not launching a DDoS attack are you?

DDoS = Distributed Denial of Service attack. It’s when an attacker overloads a website or system with malicious communication from multiple sources (often zombie computers) so it reduces or eliminates the availability of the website for legitimate users. It would be like if hundreds or thousand of people started calling your phone at the same time, so anyone trying to reach you just receives a busy signal.

Thanks for the explanation. I learned something interesting today. But nope, I did not do that

Highly doubt it’s a DDoS attack lol

Well, probably because I just made it up. But nobody in the U.S. will know it’s not really French so I think I’ll keep it. Maybe it will help me seem sophisticated with the ladies.

Hey, if you want to send a nice birthday card for the bash I’ll see if I can deliver it for you. But only if it’s nice!

One of my favorite song is part of his unreleased demos and the other one is a KISS song that he co-wote with Paul Stanley. Paul does the vocals on this song.

you want to know everything for free. If you are A vv fan you know them ! i love the lyrics of these 3 songs. And Paul's performance

Your turn then, tell me what you like

Lol, I definitely know the songs — just didn’t know which were your favorites. Thanks for sharing, and interesting that you pick “I Still Love You”. That is also one of my favorites, and it’s helped me get through a tough time in the past. I recently ran across a thread on KISSFAQ (I think) where people were rating the songs from that album. Was really surprised that many people didn’t seem to like ISLY very much. I don’t understand why — such a strong and emotional song.

I love most everything VV. Hard to say which are my favorites — I can listen to both albums (plus Euphoria) from end to end no problem.

I still love you is an awesome song, but only Paul can sing it this way. Maybe it's the rain, brings tears in my eyes. There are some songs I like in his VVI albums, but the thing that bothers me are those high pitch voices, they get on my nerves. Too bad, the lyrics are great, the melodies are ok, but the voice of Robert or Mark, not my stuff. I know they can sing differently, I prefer the way they sing now. As for Shredding, sorry but not my stuff either. Sorry for your tough time in the past. We all have tough time, but never give up !

my screen name, well i admit never had that idea ! Interesting.....like you

My take on your screen name is from the start of Ashes to Ashes:

Rain on me baby mean mistreater lover
You got me branded by your love iron

Not really paying attention it sounds like Mark is siging ludvine, or ludivine. That's what I think of anyway.

I'm a MUCH bigger fan of A Million To One than ISLY. I do like ISLY, but AMTO is on top.

In french it is Ludivine. The lyrics of ashes to ashes, are beautiful.

Regarding the favorite VV songs, we all are different, with different taste. ISLY, is my top one, among the songs Vinnie wrote while he was in KISS.

Funny thing, as long as I’ve been a fan of “Ashes to Ashes”, I only recently found out what they were singing backwards at the start. Cool stuff! Huh... you’re right! Just gave it another listen and it does kinda sound like Ludivine.

Man, I’m curious too about the origin of your screen name. Does is relate to Gene Simmons... from KISS?

Ohhh yeah? OHHHH YEAH?!? Well allllllright.

I am sorry to deceive you, but my screen name is not related to KISS. It's only a French old firstame that I love, and that is seldom given. The origin of this name is German from what I read.

I will listen to ashes to ashes, to know if i hear the same thing as you both do.

RipRokken, no I don't love Gene Simmons. My favorite KISS member Is Paul Stanley.

Rip, if you want to be sophisticated with the ladies, call yoursel "ETIENNE". This name is my favorite Fench man name. Here's a song with that name, just to pronounce it right



here's the english translation of the lyrics. You will notice there is 'fits like a glove" . A sign VV related ?

Etienne, Etienne, Etienne
Oh, don't hold back

A dirty salty kiss
All down the bed like this
Something for you
Coming out of the blue,
Freeze frame slow-motion
I am breaking the taboo

Etienne, Etienne, Etienne
Oh, don't hold back

Distracted crazy love
It fits just like a glove
The infinite taste
Of our languid after-glow
Let me re-ignite
And make your passion grow

Hey Etienne

Etienne, Etienne, Etienne
Oh, don't hold back

A tempting wicked lick
As side by side we stick
All night you stay strong
Drunken senses can't be wrong
Way down out of sight
Feed my mighty appetite

Etienne, Etienne, Etienne
Oh, don't hold back

Relaxed and left to fade
Our next embrace delayed
As I bite feel the pain,
go again and again
All down your spine
My breathless words will rhyme

Etienne, Etienne, Etienne
Oh, don't hold back

A dirty salty kiss
All down the bed like this
Something for you
Coming out of the blue,
Freeze frame slow-motion
I am breaking the taboo

Etienne, Etienne, Etienne
Oh, don't hold back

Distracted crazy love
It fits just like a glove
The infinite taste
Of our languid after-glow
Let me re-ignite
And make your passion grow

Etienne, Etienne, Etienne
Oh, don't hold back

haha you like to play, i do to. You know exactly who I am, and where I post ! But you made 1 mistake. Only a few people call me Fabi. I can count them on the fingers of 1 hand. You made other mistakes. So, if you want to get in touch with me I am sure you'll find a way. Everyone does. Or you will call me out somewhere. But I am not sure you will have the gutts.
