Background
Paul Stanley, the sole writer of the song, said about it: "It was a song I knew was going to be great... I knew what this song was and its turned out exactly the way I had hoped, and really better. The band has four great voices so when we do a chorus together it sounds like the world singing." The song is about how we shouldn't be wasting time and over-thinking things.
"Say Yeah" was announced December 5 to be the second single from 'Sonic Boom' and was officially released on December 8[http://www.kissonline.com/stream/article/display/id/18409/ Kiss released second single off 'Sonic Boom'] but in Argentina it was released the second week of January 2010.

After peaking #11 in its first week, "Say Yeah" topped the charts in Russia.
