Alice Cooper Song Quotations

They should invent some way to tape-record your dreams. I've written songs in my dreams that were Beatles songs. Then I'd wake up and they'd be gone.

I always think that you should be striving to write your best song.

It's a big flash of all these things and whatever you take out of that statement's one statement, one mind, one statement, one act, one show, and all the songs are one.

On the last day of school, it's the national anthem. On that day, it's the most popular song on the planet. (Laughs.) I become Francis Scott Key for one day.

If you were to say to me that you needed a romantic and sentimental song in four hours, I would have that song written in four hours.

It's not like we did something wrong. We just burned down the church while the choir within sang religious songs.

I liked Jim Morrison a lot as a person. He was this very poetic character, and death was always on his mind. And it showed up in his songs - I mean, almost every song he wrote had something to do with dying. He was an American treasure that went way too soon.

Johnny [Depp] got this rock 'n' roll old soul to him. If I say a song, he goes, 'Oh yeah. I know that song.' A song he shouldn't know, a song that's not his generation at all. So he might as well have been there.

This whole album takes you in a lot of different directions, yet it still really sounds like an Alice album. There are no fillers. Pick any song you think might be a single and I'm happy with that song representing the album. That to me is quality.
