Here's how alicecooper is passing the time in quarantine.
Music has been helping people stay connected during the COVID-19 pandemic, and shock-rock legend Alice Cooper has used his time in self-isolation to write a song encouraging his fans to keep their chins up. His new single “Don’t Give Up,” released May 15, addresses the crisis head-on and speaks directly to fans. But there’s nothing “sappy” about it, according to Cooper.“It’s a really powerful hard-rock song,” the rocker adds of the half-spoken, half-sung lyric.
The end result is a video that features a globe with Cooper’s face prominently displayed alongside footage of his band while thousands of fans revolve around them with handmade signs singling out the words as he sings them: “You know it’s so hard to cope/ When you’re just hoping there’s hope … We’re all staring at the razor’s edge/ But we’re not going to step off the ledge.”
Enjoying meals together isn’t the only thing his clan has in common. “You know that Geico commercial with the whole family clogging?” asks Cooper. “That’s us. We have a friend who’s a great tap dancer, and every Wednesday night, he has an hour-long online class. So the whole family goes in the backyard where we have all this plywood on the ground, and everybody’s got tap shoes on. My wife and daughters are professional dancers, so they’re way ahead of me. But every Wednesday night is tap night.
Cooper also hopes to get back on the road by October after having to cancel a string of spring and summer dates, including some European shows with his side project Hollywood Vampires, featuring Johnny Depp and Aerosmith’s Joe Perry. “Guys in my position in rock 'n' roll, we can’t complain -- money has been put away, and there are no financial problems,” he says of the gap in work. “And if you’re in a position like I’m in, you have to take care of your people. You’ve got all these people that work for you all year -- truck drivers, lighting guys, the sound guy. You have to put money away for those guys because they’ve got to pay the bills and they’ve got a family to feed.
