Re: YouTube views and Spotify Streams

interesting stats....a few random observations based on Spotify numbers - Poison is the clear runaway winner, do doubt being the most recent big hit makes a big difference - There are 4 songs getting more than 25k listens per day (1 solo / 3 ACG) but together they still do not match Poison - Very cl...

Re: "Road" - Reviews

Thanks for the review. I don't agree on several statements, but ...a review is only... a review to prove my point :https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-album-reviews/billion-dollar-babies-255394/ would we agree with those statements now ? I do agree with some statements - e.g. Raped & Freezin j...

Re: Hypothetical Question-Would You Be Okay With Another Heavy Alice Album

To me, the best material from solo Alice in recent years involved Dennis (mainly) or MB/NS: Fireball, Sound of A, his appearance on Hallow's Grave, Social Debris, When Hell Comes Home. Some songs were less good than others (I don't particularly rate Drunk and in Love, say), true. But when looking at...

Re: Hypothetical Question-Would You Be Okay With Another Heavy Alice Album

I would be all for it because BP is one of my favourites, but if there is any real chance of an album with the OGs then I would definitely pick that over the heavy album..

Crazy Little Child

I'm not sure if this has already been addressed in previous posts or in your book (been a while since I read it): Crazy Little Child is a strange song in that it is quite different in feel than the typical band song. It doesn't sound like the same Alice Cooper from Love it to Death, Killer etc. It's...

Re: “Road,” August 25, 2023

Despite all the lack of love it is getting here (justifiable, IMO), outside of the 3 singles, Big Boots is the track with highest number of listens on the album according to Spotify stats (70k vs ~30k for the other songs). Interesting. Also mind-boggling is The Saga of Jesse Jane with 1.7m listens, ...

band logo

Hi, a curiosity which maybe you can enlighten me about. I've always found it strange that the band (and later solo Alice) did not have a stable 'logo' - the band name is not presented in a consistent font/colour scheme/format from one album to the next except in recent years where Alice seems to hav...

Re: "Road" - Reviews

A few thoughts now having listened to it a few times - I quite like the album, I thought I would not, but on first listen it was better than expected and after more listens it has grown on me. -Better than Detroit Stories and probably somewhat better than Paranormal (although nothing here stands out...
