Love it To Death was my first AC album (yeah vinyl). I can still remember all those songs - dark stuff.
I heard this yesterday for the first time in years:
Go To Hell [5:02] - Goes To Hell, 1976
For criminal acts and violence on the stage
For being a brat
Refusing to act your age
For all the decent citizens you've enraged
You can go to Hell
For gambling and drinking alcohol constantly
For making us doubt our parents authority
For choosing to be a living obscenity
You can go to Hell
You're something that never should have happened
You even make your Grandma sick
You'd poison a blind man's dog and steal his cane
You'd gift-wrap a leper
And mail him to your Aunt Jane
You'd even force-feed a diabetic a candy cane
You can go to Hell
You're something that never should have happened
You even make your Grandma sick
For criminal acts and violence on the stage
For being a brat
Refusing to act your age
For all the decent citizens you've enraged
You can go to Hell
Are-you-here-yet? ping.
Good flick. Alice played the best role!
WE'RE SCUM!!
WE SUCK!!!
Your title?
Saw this a few days ago. Warmed the cockles of my heart, it did. (Whatever the heck cockles are...)
I don't think I wanna know. LOL
Did you buy a copy of "School's Out" when it came out? The one that looks like a school desk with the white panties under the lid? I still have mine. The album, that is.
There speaks a man with a sense of perspective...
No Worldnets title
Back in the '70s Alice wrote a song called "Elected". There was a kind of proto-video for the song where alice is behind a podium with a big Uncle Sam Hat. One of the verses in the song goes something like:
"We're gonna win this one, take the country by storm
We're gonna be elected!"
So true, Alice. Sing it out loud!
AHhhhh. Such good news. I'm so proud of Cooper. He lives here on Maui part of the time I've seen him and his family around at the restaurants etc. Everyone says how nice of a man he is and his wife and mother too. Real down to earth person. Like the rest of us Bush people. LOL
Strange.
I remember that. The plot was that Alice and the boys ran a chimpanzee for President. Had the chimp jumping up and down in a wheelbarrow full of campaign donation money. I watched it just before I got in a car and drove to Washington to protest Nixon's 2nd inauguration.
Sounds about right for me, too. The band playing before Alice was a trio of unknowns. Two guys w/beards and a heck of a sound, by the name of ZZ Top. I hear later they made it big. : )
Regardless of his politics, Alice Copoper has just become one of my favorites. He "gets it". Entertainers should entertain, NOT use their position as a bully pupit.
