Nothing's Free

Post by wind_up_toy » Tue Jun 25, 2013 7:59 pm

This is probably my favourite track from The Last Temptation, a really spooky song with a great atmosphere to it. It was nice to stumble across a live performance of it while rooting through You Tube the other day:

That's a polite request not an order

Great song off one of my favourite Alice Cooper records.

I'd love to see/hear Alice dust this gem off for an upcoming live show.

Thanks for posting your find here, much appreciated.

I agree. Fantastic song, one of my absolute favourites. And yes, it would be a real treat to see this performed live once again...

The video is awesome, thanks for sharing!

Great song of an absolute masterpiece off an ablum.

I'd love to see him do *anything* off this album... even "Lost in America".

Would love to hear this played live! It would be cool to see TLT and WTMN played back to back since TLT is a prequel to the events of WTMN. Seeing him open with Sideshow and creating a circus like show and ending with Escape would be really cool!

I'm not sure TLT was ever meant to be a prequel to WTTMN.

I do agree that it would be great to see them done live since they're all 'Steven' stories in one way or another

Another favourite of mine, too. I totally agree with some of the earlier posts in this thread, TLT is one fantastic album. Would be soooo nice to see any other songs of it performed live apart from Lost In America, which featured on several setlist of recent years :love:

Great album, along with "Brutal Planet" and "WTMN", the 3 best solo albums by far.Eyes is probably next up.... imo.. Put them all together and you might get near the "Killer" / "LITD" material.....imo

One of the songs he should bring back into a set without a doubt. Could easily fit into any show.

Great song, great album and this video was great..if Alice ever decided to drop the theatrics this outfit would get the idea of Alice across..the Showman...when I bought album in 1994 I Considered it to be best album since FTI in 78..Solo wise..75 WTMN..78 FTI 94 TLT....3 classic concept albums..the ones in between kept me going..bought the 3 comics recently for TLT...all good..
