Favorite Alice Cooper songs
 

... assuming you have any.

I think they all rock, growing up in the motor city.

School's Out - they always played that over the intercom on the last day of class.
I'm Eighteen - Another classic.
Elected - great song.

posion has to be the best one

I've always liked Under My Wheels.

And every song from Flush the Fashion.

Billion dollar babies
I love the dead
Welcome to my nightmare
so many more...brings back memories

Poison is one of his best songs. also like the schools out one.

Lots of great songs... Poison is great, and his older ones still rock too. Saw him live in Detroit on Halloween night - Killer show! :thumbsup

He's been doing that halloween show in Detroit for as long as I can remember.

Yep - caught him in 87. :thumbsup

Black Widow
Billion Dollar Babies
Cold Ethyl

Is it my Body

Only women bleed

No more Mr. nice guy!!!

:thumbsup

great song

same here, dad used to love Alice Cooper when i was really young, i began liking them when i was around 19

Is Ted Nugent still doing those anual new year's eve shows in Motown?

You go back to the 80s rock scene in Detroit? Do you remember a local band called Bitter Sweet Alley? Early-mid 80s, east side clubs primarily (e.g., September's, Harpo's)

My all time favorite Alice Cooper was the long form video he made with Vincent Price, "Alice Cooper: The Nightmare" which was a "dream sequence" visualizing out all the songs from the album. I've been trying to find a replacement copy of that for a while now (not to be confused with the video "Welcome to My Nightmare", which is a concert film).

Besides the title track (Welcome to my Nightmare), high points of the film for me were:
Black Widow
Cold Ethel
Years Ago/Steven
Department of Youth

:thumbsup

Oh and if I had to pick a song not related to that video as a favorite, it would probably have to be "No More Mr. Nice Guy "... I've grabbed that as a theme song a few well needed times in my life, very inspirational:thumbsup

No More Mr. Niceguy
School's Out
Roses On White Lace
Teenage Frankenstein
Billion Dollar Babies
Gail
I Love The Dead

I also loved Alice w/ Twisted Sister on the song Be Crool To Your Schuel

Cooper liked to 'scare' in his shows. Ironically, nothing was scarier than when Pat Boone covered 'No More Mr. Nice Guy!' Now THAT was SCARY.

Poison... Try downloading Groove Coverage- Poison

It's a dance/techno remake of the song.

OMG! Is nothing sacred? I still haven't recovered from that horrid 'Back and Black' hip hop remake.

What do you want from me
Schools Out
I love the dead

I think the new version is quite good :helpme Try downloading it from Kazaa or Ares, you might like it :Graucho

Groove Coverage - Poison

C'mon, just try it.... it won't hurt...

School's Out and Posion of course BUT the one of his I really like that I never heard mentioned is Clones (We're All) ..it is different from his normal stuff but I really like it. I think the Smashing Pumpkins did a cover of it at some point.

Alice is great.

I would love to play a round of golf with him some day.

Billion Dollar Babies
what do you want from me
i love the dead

and few songs from his Brutal Planet i like too.
one of them is Pick up the bones

Steven
Billion Dollar Babies
18
Only Women Bleed
No More Mr. Nice Guy
I love the Dead

Yeah right, this one rock !

Oh yeah, that's a great tune, I almost forgot about that one.

"He's Back" was a great tune also.

wow, sarah - good call! i forgot all about clones - not his usual stuff.

the ones i love that come to my mind are

cold ethyl
the black widow
under my wheels
be my lover
only women bleed
and of course, the ballad of dwight fry

Grew up in Detroit. I remember the name Bitter Sweet Alley, but not the tunes. Remember Harpos too. :thumbsup

Alice's act was awesome. Too bad that ugly geek Manson stole it and actually took it seriously. Then again, he's making millions out of high school losers and outcasts...

Hey Stoopid is a good one
Also Poison, School's Out, No More Mr. Nice Guy

But I think my favorite is Feed My Frankenstein. I have no idea why though. :(

yeah, I liked the whole "Raise Your Fist And Yell" album, but it seems to be forgotten by all but the most hardcore Cooper fans...

a lot of good tunes on that one...the songs I mentioned but also "Give The Radio Back" and "Chop Chop Chop"

I sing part of the song "Gail" to my kids:
"The dog digs up a bone and wags his tail...I wonder how the dog remembers...Gail"

Hey Stoopid

an Alice Cooper memory:
I was working as a chef at the Coyote Cafe inside the MGM Grand and Alice Cooper came in with his mother, father and manager. He was wearing a black leather jacket, black pants, etc.

He was obviously having a business meeting, but kindly obliged fans with a couple autographs but you could tell he was getting a little irritated when his food came out and he couldn't have a few minutes to himself to eat.

So he left and was gone for quite awhile...I figued he was pissed and just left, leaving his parents and manager there..he came bak with a sweater, blue jeans and a ball cap and no one recognized him.

Afterwards, he was really nice and we had an "open kitchen" policy (anyone could tour the kitchen just by asking) so asked for a tour of the kitchen and was great, signing autographs for everyone in the kitchen and taking time to chat.

He became a frequent customer of ours the rest of the week and even came back often whenever he was in town, but never wore the jacket again, always a sweater and ballcap...

It was also weird overhearing parts of their conversation and his mother calling him Vincent (his real first name)

my favorite one is

"Might As Well Be On Mars"

Jesus loves Alice Cooper. He told me so.

well, his dad is a preacher...so probably true

Yep Yep. Alice is Boobmaster (and Jesus) approved :thumbsup

poison and bed of nails rock.

My favorite Alice tune is "Billion Dollar Babies"

Ballad of Dwight Fry

I grabbed my hat and i got my coat
and i, i ran into the street
I saw a man that was choking there
I guess he couldn't breathe
Said to myself this is very strange
I'm glad it wasn't me
But now I hear those sirens callin'
and so i am not free

It don't get much better.:glugglug
