Alice Cooper's "Desperado" predates and kicks the bleep out of the Eagles song by that same name.
Freedom of speech is a beautiful thing.
It gives everyone, regardless of motivation, the right to express their opinions.
Pretty damn funny. Too bad I don't like his music.
The one with the little girl in Goth costume tossing pens and other things into a shopping cart, who says, "I thought you said, 'school's out forever'".
Then Alice Cooper, the girl's father, says, with a big grin on his face, "No. Its 'school's out for summer'. Nice try, though".
The times I have heard him talk he seems very intelligent--someone who might at least have half a brain.
"Besides," he continued, "when I read the list of people who are supporting Kerry, if I wasn't already a Bush supporter, I would have immediately switched. Linda Ronstadt? Don Henley? Geez, that's a good reason right there to vote for Bush."

you'll love this.
Well well well...
Welcome to our nightmare, Alice.
Those of us of the boomer generation know one thing. If we WERE to listen to a rocker about anything political (let alone who to vote for), it would certainly be Alice over Linda Ronstadt...sheesh.
Alice Cooper was so great in the original "Wayne's World" movie.
Bruce Springsteen is not supporting John Kerry.
He is only concerned with defeating GWB. I saw him interviewed on Larry King and he would not state that he supported John Kerry. Only that he wanted "anybody but Bush".
Now, that's a moron.
ALICE COOPER is a Christian Conservative Rock icon bump!!!
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.
Your title?
There speaks a man with a sense of perspective...
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
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.
