Kicking is also prominent from its use in many sports, especially those called football. The best known of these sports is association football, also known as soccer.
History
The English verb to kick appears only in the late 14th century, apparently as a loan from Old Norse, originally in the sense of a hooved animal delivering strikes with his hind legs; the oldest use is Biblical.
Kicks as an act of human aggression have likely existed worldwide since prehistory. However, high kicks, aiming above the waist or to the head appear to have originated from Asian martial arts. Such kicks were introduced to the west in the 19th century with early hybrid martial arts inspired by Asian styles such as Bartitsu and Savate. Practice of high kicks became more universal in the second half of the 20th century with the more widespread development of hybrid styles such as kickboxing and eventually mixed martial arts.
Kix is an Americanhard rock band that achieved popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Band members have continued to tour, including at the Rocklahoma festival in 2008 in Oklahoma and the M3 Rock Festival in May 2011 in the band's home state of Maryland.
History
Early years (1977–1987)
Kix was formed by Ronnie Younkins, Brian Forsythe and Donnie Purnell in December 1977 in Hagerstown, Maryland.
In 1981, they released their self-titled debut album, Kix, featuring "Atomic Bombs", "Heartache", "Contrary Mary", "The Itch", and "The Kid". "Love at First Sight" instantly became a concert favorite. "Kix Are for Kids" creatively merged the name of the band with two popular cereals of the 1960s and 1970s, Kix (that featured an atomic bomb commercial) and the Trix Rabbit ("Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids!"). "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" became the band's most popular concert song, always with a unique ad-lib performance by lead vocalist Steve Whiteman, of Piedmont, WV. With this album, the tongue-in-cheekrock and roll style of Kix was established.
"Kicks" is a song by Americanrock band Paul Revere & the Raiders. Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil wrote the song for The Animals, but the band's lead singer Eric Burdon turned it down.
Instead, Paul Revere & The Raiders recorded and released it as a single in 1966. The single was a number one hit in Canada, and reached number four in the United States. "Kicks" was included on the band's fifth album, Midnight Ride, released in May 1966. A live version of the song was recorded on the band's 1996 Greatest Hits Live compilation album.
Considered one of the earliest anti-drug pop songs, "Kicks" was composed and released during an era in which pro-hippie, pro-experimentation, and other counterculture themes were gaining popularity on U.S. FM radio stations.
The song's message was consequently perceived as outdated by the emerging youth counterculture, as popular artists ranging from The Beatles to Jefferson Airplane had written songs whose themes sharply contrasted that of "Kicks." However, the song has received generally positive reviews by music critics in the decades since its release.
In 2004, "Kicks" was ranked number 400 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

a.c. acoustics - She Kills For Kicks lyrics
a.c. acoustics song 'She Kills For Kicks' from their album 'Understanding Music.'
In a seaside town where her body was found,
In the sunny side ground in a hand sewn gown,
In a hand sewn gown.
In a seaside town where her body was found,
In the sunny side ground in a hand sewn gown.
In a hand sewn gown.
In a seaside town where her body was found,
In the sunny side ground in a hand sewn gown.
In a hand sewn gown.
In a hand sewn gown, with just a penny and a pound,
Said I know I'm gonna drown.
Can you give me more?
Can you give me more?
Can you give me more than the holy cows, in motorcade somehow.
Turned the whole thing sour.
Turned the whole thing sour.
Reddest red I've ever seen,
The kind of speech folks never mean.
Words are just words,
As steam is steam.

Do the roads still meet?
You know it makes me wanna weep.
May the keeper hope to keep.
May the keeper hope to keep,
the weaker swimmers from the deep,
from swimming surely out of reach.
Seeing something good in each.
Seeing something good in each.
Seeing something good in each.
Will you take my hand?
Will you help me stand?
Could you kill a man?
Could you kill a man?
Could you kill a man?
You said you think I can.
Struck up the bone, struck up the band.
You said you think I can.
I'm not a thick skinned man.
But I'm more than pleased to wait.
Can you take my weight?
