God Gave Rock 'n' Roll to You II wasn't brought out in full until the release of the Kiss album Revenge on the version used on the album is a remix of the version recorded for the film.
The CD single included two other tracks from the Bill and Ted soundtrack, namely Junior's Gone Wild by the band King's X and Shout It Out by Slaughter. The single contained an abridged version (edit) of the title, which was 3:53 minutes long. For the soundtrack, the song was titled God Gave Rock and Roll to You II, the spelling used in this article applies to the releases by Kiss. God Gave Rock 'n' Roll to You II was released by Interscope Records in July 1991. The band acquired the release rights for the song after the recording in order to be able to publish the song on a Kiss album. He had also played drums for demo recordings by Paul Stanley for the Kiss album Hot in the Shade and had also been the drummer on his solo tour in 1989. The role of drummer for the title was taken over by Eric Singer, who had previously played on two Black Sabbath albums, as a drummer for Badlands and on some singles by Gary Moore. Kiss drummer Eric Carr was operated on for a tumor in the heart in April 1991 and could not play, but had recovered enough by this point to record the backing vocals for the title. Because of the massive changes, the song was renamed God Gave Rock 'n' Roll to You II, after which it was included in the film's soundtrack. The song was revised by Stanley, Simmons and Ezrin and received new lyrics, only the chorus and parts of the second verse remained. Ezrin accepted the job as the time frame (five days) and budget were reasonable. Iovine hired producer Bob Ezrin to realize this idea.

James Iovine, head of the music label Interscope, wanted this title on the soundtrack for the film, but he had the idea that Kiss should record the song for it. The original length of the title was 6:44 minutes. The track was originally written as God Gave Rock and Roll to You by Russ Ballard, in 1972 it was the opening track on the album In Deep by the band Argent, of which Ballard was a member.
