You, sir, are absolutely hilarious to suggest that Alice Cooper "never had any satanistic overtones." (your quote)

Obviously you have never read ANY of Alice's lyrics. For your edification, please read the following lyrics from Alice's 1973 release "Billion Dollar Babies". (song title is "I love the dead"

I love the dead before they're cold
They're bluing flesh for me to hold
Cadaver eyes upon me see nothing
I love the dead before they rise
No farewells, no goodbyes
I never knew your rotting face
While friends and lovers mourn your silly grave
I have other uses for you, Darling
We love the dead
We love the dead, Yeah

Not to split hairs, but necrophelia doesn't necessarily equal satanism. Cooper wrote some pretty outrageous stuff, but there was always a tongue & cheek quality to it. Heck, I had a copy of Billion Dollar Babies but as a thirteen year old never at any time took the stuff on it seriously. Lyrics aside, the guy put out some pretty good music.

Hey dmz, what do his song lyrics have to do with anything? He admitted rock stars are morons so he is suggesting you ignore. I guess in your world, everyone has to be squeaky clean in order to be considered sentient.
