No no no it was the overall sense of expecting something good out of 2025 Alice Cooper new material. I must be jaded

Grandma's Gotta Brand New Bag Under Her Eyes!
With a load of iron ore 26000 tons more
Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty…
Sheer banality, eh? What is this “Gitche Gumee” nonsense?
Much as I love it, it isn’t a song to tap your toes to or dance. For that, some big thumping bass and
She’s crazy like a fool
What about Daddy Cool
Will do just fine.

It'd be great to medley with a cover of 'Soap On A Rope'

I'd rather they do an all instrumental album, (not) oddly enough

Man, Vai and Satch have a loooooooooooooong history of collaborating with some of the greatest lyricists
of all time, too.
David Lee Roth.
David Coverdale.
Sammy Hagar.
Frank Zappa.
The Mt. Rushmore of lyrical depth, allegory, and use of metaphor.

Roth and Zappa (who is juvenile in the right way I'd say?) (sincerely), yes. The other 2 (sincerely), hell no!

They all dumbed down lyrical content in their own ways--with Roth being the least sucky, in my view.
If only Penises could vote, then maybe not so much.
Zappa often had his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, but he wasn't mining lyrical gold and
psychological depth in his narratives. He also wasn't all that funny.

Yeah tbf; my desire to actually listen to Zappa's music is generally at a 0% level So there's that. And 5150 to my ears is an awesome album, depsite "US Prime, Grade A stamped guaranteed!" being sung from the jump

I do think it can all be great fun, and then sometimes I want non-fun, Burn The World
Down Rage & Aggression, or Dystopian Dreams to reflect the Nightmare-ish scenarios
only a Metal God could delineate.
Pretty sure cliches are not going away anytime soon, though, in any genre. Be it Hip-Hop T & A,
Bro Country T & A, or Hair Metal T & A.
Maybe that is the common thread we are missing out on to unite us all?

Don't you dare mock Bicycle Race!It's amazing how much the world just doesn't give a. Take a moment and think about the staying power this song has had:
Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle, bicycle, bicycle
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride it where I like
See also:
I'm so glad
I'm so glad
I'm glad, I'm glad, I'm glad
I'm so glad
I'm so glad
I'm glad, I'm glad, I'm glad

+100 I appreciate Zappa from a historical and influence perspective, but I find zero enjoyment in simply listening to anything he did.
