I Love DaDa, Flush and Zipper. Infact every 80's Alice album, It's just Special Forces that is a bit TOO 80's for me. I do like Generation Landslide and Who do you think we are though.

This is a tough one to judge. There's so much humor that it's almost like a collection of novelty songs.

"Zorro's Ascent" is my favorite track. I really like the lyrics to that one. "Make That Money" is also good. I don't care for "I Am the Future" at all. "No Baloney Homosapiens" has a terrible title/chorus even for a comedy song. I do like the music though. "Adaptable" "I Like Girls" and "Perfectly Insincere" aren't bad songs but they aren't interesting enough that I'd want to listen to them that often. I don't really care for "Tag You're It." A lot of buildup for a weak joke. The music in "I Better Be Good" is very catchy, but the lyrics are, well, bad frankly. Alice is a great lyricist but this one was a misfire, imo. "I'm Alive" is very silly but catchy.

Zipper for me is a "guilty pleasure". I mean it is objectively garbage (the lyrics are really poor) But something about the enthusiastic music and alices random staccato lyrical framing works for me. I'd never play it to someone to demonstrate alice cooper, but whenever i stick the album on, i cannot deny it, i have allot of fun. Dick Wagner plays a blinder on this album.
