Elected - Alice Cooper

 

 Seemed an appropriate day to play this.

Alice Cooper - Elected

 

Alice Cooper once again announces he's running for President in 2024. Compared to most of the field he's a young pup at 76-years old.

Elected - Alice Cooper

For some reason I can't quite put my finger on - this song has been playing in my head today.

Alice Cooper

Yesterday was Alice Cooper's 70th birthday. He remains one of the most underrated recording artists of the past 50-years and Generation Landslide is one of his most underrated songs. Here's what I'd consider his Top 5 songs:

1. Under My Wheels 
2. Only Women Bleed 
3. No More Mr. Nice Guy 
4. Elected 
5. I'll Never Cry

Just missing the list Is It My Body and Generation Landslide.

Election Day

I couldn't think of a more fitting song for the day than Alice Cooper's Elected.

I voted this morning. It took 29 minutes. How long you had to wait to vote is the new finding a great parking spot. Everyone I've seen talking about voting - the first thing they mention is how long it took.

By the way - Alice Cooper supports Mitt Romney. Go Romney 2012!!

Morning Music

I've decided to start each morning out with a little music selection for your listening pleasure. We'll see how long this lasts.

- Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros doing Johnny Appleseed. I feel bad starting off with this one because to be honest its hard to top.

- Alice Cooper - Elected. James Carville makes an appearance as the campaign manager. If I were running for President I'd make this my theme song.

- Bruce Springsteen - Jungeland. From back when the band had a rule that if you weren't Jewish then you had to wear a hat.

- U2 - Unforgettable Fire. A U2 song that doesn't get much airplay anymore but one of my favorites. It's funny seeing Bono with his old mullet.

- Sisters of Mercy - This Corrosion. A bad video but a good song. Blast from the 80's. This song was in a movie but I can't remember what movie. Was it Rain Man?
