You’re My Temptation

I like that one too. It's my favorite track on the album.

"Deeper" is a track that gets a lot of hate. It isn't a personal favorite, but it isn't bad imo. "Ubangi Stomp" seems to be universally reviled, and while I don't think it's good there are a lot of other Alice songs that I think are worse.

Here are a few songs that I think are pretty good that I don't see many people talking:

No Tricks
Zorro's Ascent
Leather Boots
Dance Yourself To Death
Prettiest Cop On The Block
I'm Alive
Make That Money (Scrooge's Song)
Snakebite
Dirty Dreams
Hurricane Years
Identity Crises
See Me In The Mirror
Novocaine
$1000 High Heel Shoes

I'm not sure if they are actually disliked or if people are just ambivalent about them.

I love Deeper, I remember the first time I heard it and it terrified me. Such a great creepy song. Almost like Brutal Planet on steroids.

That’s a terrific list! There are so many gems there, Identity Crises, I’m Alive, Snakebite! All great choices.

I’ve always thought the Hey Stoopid album is super underrated.

The one that comes to mind is 'holy waters'. I liked it straight away. I enjoy most of those 'different ' songs that Alice throws in. Crazy little child is another that seems to get flak that I think is a fantastic song.
As an album Detroit Stories is getting abuse but I think it's really strong. Great rockers like social debris and go man go mixed with some fantastic songs like $1000 dollar high heel shoes and drunk and in love.

I don't know how I missed this question when it was originally posted. Let's see:
Crawlin'
Love's a Loaded Gun-I think this one is a bonafide classic
Fantasy Man
Caffeine
Grim Facts
$1000 High Heel Shoes
Is Anyone Home
Life and Death of the Party

How refreshing all these suggestions : would make some fantastic "not-greatest-hits" Cds , proving that Alice and the ACG are some much more than NMMNG, SO, BDB and so on..

Funny you should say that. Here is my current “Alice ‘18’” playlist. Usually play it on random for the unexpected experience which can give some interesting flow to proceedings.I think nearly all fall neatly into this thread.

Public Private Breakdown
Love Should Never Feel Like This
Perfect
Last Man on Earth
Pretty Ballerina
It’s much too Late
Sunset Babies
Man of the Year
Novocaine
It’s the Little Things
Nothing’s Free
Might As Well Be On Mars
Hell Is Living Without You
Great American Success Story
I Love America
You’re a Movie
Going Home
Escape

These are my secret favourites. I know maybe it's a bit too much, but I love all of them

Blue turk
Hard hearted Alice - maybe this doesn't meet criteria - cult classic.
I never wrote those songs
You're a movie "God told me I would have rivalled, Alexander the Great.... at his best"
Zorro's ascent - this songs time will come... surely
Trick bag
Hurricane years
Sideshow
Mr Spider (Hollywood Vampires). This is timeless/vintage Coop, and just seems to be on no-one's radar.

Pretty much everything on "Along Came a Spider." Especially "(In Touch With) Your Feminine Side," "KIlled By Love," and "The One That Got Away."

I like a lot from the blackout period but those albums have gained enough respect that I'm not sure if it's more than most fans.

Dragontown gets a lot of beef as leftovers from Brutal Planet but "Sex, Death and Money" is one of my favorites from the era.

Without being able to read everyone’s minds I will just list 5 that I assume are not the standard favourites:

Perfect
I Am The Future
Little By Little
Life And Death Of The Party
Fantasy Man

I have a hard time finding songs by Alice that i don't like till we get to the 2000s not a huge fan of the stuff he has done recently like dirty diamonds, eyes of Alice cooper, road, and Detroit stories. some good tracks on those albums but as a whole not a huge fan of that stuff.
