Kiss' version of "Hide Your Heart" is the third of four versions released in 1989. The first version was by Molly Hatchet on their album Lightning Strikes Twice, released on September 6.

A music video was filmed on top of the Hotel Royale in Los Angeles.[3] The song wasn't a big success on radio, charting its highest number 59 in the United Kingdom and reaching number 22 on the U.S. album rock charts. It was however a very popular music video on MTV. Paul Stanley performed the song during his 2006 solo tour in support of his album Live to Win and appears on his live album/DVD One Live Kiss.
