As always, I'm sorry for my poor English.

I've found interesting article (link below)

>I knew that for example for the song "Death is just a feeling" I had alredy the creature

>And with Jon Oliva, the song needed a dramatic and tragic voice, I needed an Alice "cooperish" voice!
>But this song was the reincarnation of Alice Coopers' death, so I couldn’t take Alice again!
>I seriously had considered to make Alice sing again but then I thought that it’s not right

Listening to "Toy Master" and "Death is just a feeling", it is clear that Tobias Sammet is
perfect songwriter for Alice.
Any chance of a collaboration (like Chris Cornell in Last Temptation) in new album?

I enjoyed Alice's contribution on the Toy Master track. I think Alice is moving away from that european metal type sound though.

Additionaly, Arjen Lucassen and expressed an interest in working with Alice. His Ayreon albums have some interested ideas.

Well it would be really cool to see the collaboration going the other way this time.

The Toy Master remains one of my absolute favourites, as you point out the lyrics were tailor made for Alice I loved the concept
