Great, sounds really cool, plus it could bring new, younger fans over to the Album. Now am I an old fart for never having heard of Kesha before? Or is it just that she's not as big in the Uk? And just how popular is she in USA? I see this song as a sleazy seductress type thing, along the line's of Don't know why I'm down here, ok better stop getting carried away now.

>along the line's of Don't know why I'm down here

You mean "Give The Kid A Break", I think!

[dadascot]

OOOoooops.

[Awakening]

Dadascot -> I get the same feeling when I read it.
I hope this song will be a good surprise as for "Baby Can't Drive".

Thanks for the link.

[mestreech]

IMO I hope it's much better as Baby can't drive.
That was an average song but that's a matter of taste.

IMO I hope it's much better as Baby can't drive.

Hope so too...
Still not very excited about the idea that Ke$ha is on the new album. But... I just have to trust Alice, I guess...

I feel the same way not too excited about ke$ha on the album but Ke$ha has a good singing voice and I think it will be a good song. She is in my opinion a far better pop singer than Beyonce definetely. anyone agree?

[Lisacooper91]

Ke$ha has a good singing voice

Really? To be honest, I think she needs to learn how to articulate. And... IMO she sings very false live (from what I've seen/heard).

But... maybe I should stop judging until I heard the actual song. And after all, it is Alice Cooper... Who never fails to shock and he succeeded with collaborating with Ke$ha...

IMO I think GaGa would've been a better choice. She has a wonderful voice and sometimes very raw and rock-ish

[Swinger]

Doesn't Ke$ha usually use quite a lot of auto-tune? At least in the songs I've heard. Anyway, I'm really interested to hear how it turns out especially since I more or less agree with Alice that she might be better suited to sing rock than pop.

[Mr. Skull]

auto tune can be used in a creative way

I mean it's not necessarily 100 percent bad

And Bob Ezrin.

People, like Mitch, who have heard this song seem to not mind her involvement, thus I will kindly remind people here (and not so kindly elsewhere) to reserve judgement til you've heard it.

And speak of the devil, Mitch just posted this about the track on his F.B.:

"I LOVE the KESHA track.... it's fantastic..."

He really loves this album!

You're right that auto-tune in itself perhaps isn't a bad thing. However I'm not generally a fan of how Ke$ha uses it but I'm really interested to hear how she sounds without it (if she is without it that is).

[Sarah]

I hope this song will be a good surprise as for "Baby Can't Drive".

That's what I had in mind too when I heard about this. It could be very interesting.

Hers is exactly the kind of music I don't like, but I'm really interested to hear how this will sound.

from what I've heard of this song it's nice.... not an smashing hit, but very interesting to get... I remember that at first I was scared to know that kesha was in the album.... but overall....I admit that I really like the result...I think that mayyyyybe alice's voice is too forced in the high notes, at his limit.
Everytime Alice used a female voice as Zombie Dance, Jesse James, Sister Sarah and others I loved it.
