Alice Cooper Loves Lady Gaga: Five Cooper Songs Gaga Should Cover
Alice Cooper confirmed that he is a fan of the outrageous female version of himself, which would make the shock-rocker a "little monster." Lady Gaga and Cooper spoke backstage about working together in the future. If that's the case, Gaga could brush up on her Alice Cooper songs by covering the five songs listed here as she continues to tour.
This 1972 hit is a well known Cooper song. "School's out for summer, school's out forever" could be a new anthem for Lady Gaga's younger fans. Gaga and her "little monsters" would have a great time singing this classic together in concert.
Cooper released this rare ballad in 1976. Gaga should hit the stage with just her piano and sing this song straight up. She plays the piano beautifully and has the voice to match. I Never Cry would make a wonderful duet for Cooper and Gaga if they were in the mood for mushiness. We already know that they both wear waterproof mascara, so make it a duet!
This 1987 song from Alice Cooper represents both his desire and that of Lady Gaga. They want their freedom of expression and freedom from oppression when it comes to their music. Gaga can certainly relate to singing, "nobody better tell you how to live your life!"
Lady Gaga could have some fun making this hard rock tune into a dance hit in the pop world. Lyrics like, "I want to kiss you but your lips are venomous", are right up Gaga's alley. The god-father of shock rock knows that Lady Gaga can make any song memorable. He said this about her, "Nobody will remember 90% of the rock bands, but they'll remember Gaga."
There is no need to wait for Halloween to sing this funky Alice Cooper song. Lady Gaga's fans will be happy to hear her pound this song out on piano. Gaga deserves to get her Frankenstein fed just as much as Alice Cooper did!

Post a CommentWould be fun for her to cover some of Alice Cooper's songs- it seems like a great match
Wow! We all used to scream the song, "School's Out Forever" when summer vacation started. It would be awesome to see Gaga bring this to a whole new generation.
I haven't even thought of Alice Cooper in forever.
I would LOVE to see Lady Gaga cover "Poison." I never even though of her covering any of Cooper's material, this article is genius.
Of course I remember Alice Cooper...while we were in Louisiana we used to listen to his radio station all the time in the evenings. Not much of a Lady Gaga fan...interesting article and information.
Wow that would be cool. I remember Alice Cooper that was my err, how funny, It would be interesting to see Lady Gaga sing Alice Coopers songs. Groovy.
LOL...I could see all of these! Fun read buddy!

Great article and a fun read. I'm more familar with Alice Cooper than Lady Gaga, but from the little I do know about Gaga, she would be able to have some fun with Alice Cooper's songs and like you said, make them familar to a younger generation.
A fun report! rcj
