Alice Cooper Appearence At `American Idol` - School´s Out

[proassasssin]

I like the guitar girl

[AmalamCooper]

What are they doing to that song? They made it sound like some shit out of glee, except worse. :(

[proassasssin]

Here is the thing, rockers become better with years

[WeirdAl45231]

and after this, I bet the pop-culture generation STILL doesn't know who Alice Cooper is!

[Haileysgramma]

No intro for Oranthani?

[AliceCooperColdEthyl]

@Haileysgramma For what?

[Roachtrix]

why the 13 dislikes? Are they high? Alice Cooper is awesome!

[Yajitra]

@Roachtrix They are out-of-school.

[MrAlexB59]

@xx2n23 Thank God, they don't show this show in my country :) But we have simmilar crappy shows...

[MrAlexB59]

@xx2n23 Everyone knows who Alice Cooper is, even if they never heard his music before. If they didn't know who he was he wouldn't have gotten such a good crowd reaction

[aerofan0627]

Anybody else notice that they screwed up around 2:00?

[JJF10101957]

The girl on guitar was Orlanthi Panagaris,an outstanding choice.We must value the people we have that are our legends,like Alice Cooper!

[chaser559]

What happened to Kerri Kelli and who's the girl on guitar?

[mrheavydude1]

When that guy said "lady and gentelmans the legendary ALICE COOPER!" i think a tear drop from my eye

[gooders1002]

He sounds like he has a sore throat. Clearly not an issue today as he Rock at Ally Pally.

[remindbender]

G eyes l ove the us of a paNZer marsch ;-)

[SlayerX114]

Alice is such a beast

[TheFarriesmetalhead]

orianthi is fuckin AWESOME!!!!!!

[TwistOFate93]

hot blonde on guitar :O

[ghodium]

get your mouse at 1:30 and just keep clicking

[ghodium]

lol nice entrance, the crowd love him

[roseinthepines]

Before I read the comments I thought that was Orianthi...she is an awesome guitar player! More than awesome...

[xYum1x]

I know a girl who plays a lot better than her and actually fits into the Alice Cooper concept and yet he chose her... Sorry Alice, you are my king but this is so lame. She looks like Paris Hilton who tries to be a punk.

[Abaddon133]

@xYum1x

Orianthi is an amazing guitarist though. Have you seen the video of her collab instrumental song with Steve Vai?

There's obviously a reason why she was selected guitarist for Michael Jackson, got to collab with Steve Vai and is guitarist for Alice Cooper right now. If the girl you know is "a lot" better than her, then she'd have to be the arguably best guitarist on earth, both male and female.

[Alucarvampire97]

Nice performance. I'll give it a 9.9

[misanthrodee]

he chose to have that disgusting,ugly,bitch,over his own guitar player for lead. he brings back this bitch,forcing the band to play around her.she always wants the attention.shes 26 and works with alice cooper.i think his taste in guitar players just took a wrong turn.damon left,but he had other options.instead he hires a girl,and the guys dont like her.wonder how long shes gonna last.and yea,i know all this FROM the band.

[123johnnydepp123]

OMG i was so shaking when alice came on stage....i was like when is his voice gonna burst in to the song....i got total goos bumps....and this is only from watching this video....i would probably die if i ware there

[RodrigoDigoJunho]

The father of Horror Rock !

[HaistaPaska92]

When Alice came on stage the whole show just got such a boost. He has loads of charisma

[TenStoryLoveSong]

Cooper needs some surgery on his vocal chords if he wants to keep singing!

[AliceCooperColdEthyl]

@TenStoryLoveSong He do not need a surgery for sounding perfect. He is.

[TenStoryLoveSong]

@AliceCooperColdEthyl Seriously, he sounds bad.

[TenStoryLoveSong]

@AliceCooperColdEthyl And he got the lyrics wrong! ..his own song! How bad is that?

[NewSchumalice]

@TenStoryLoveSong Actually he sounds much better during his own shows than on TV, and in fact, singing this way preserves the voice, even though it may be hard to believe

[RockynRobynx7]

@TenStoryLoveSong The key of the song was too high for him, but arranged so that the other singers could sing it. Has nothing to do with him loosing his voice or anything of that sort.

[rhiggins30]

@TenStoryLoveSong, he's been singing this way for 40 years, he knows what he's doing.

[TenStoryLoveSong]

@rhiggins30 He sounds terrible, in that case he should have given up 40 years ago!

[deadaquarius]

@TenStoryLoveSong this is rock n roll kid.

[kimv020887]

@deadaquarius DAMN RIGHT, DUDE. ALICE COOPER RULES!!!

[rhiggins30]

@TenStoryLoveSong, let me get this straight. You're saying that a rock icon who was just inducted into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame this year, (and was voted in by legends of the music world), - should have given up 40 years ago? LOL! Go back to school kid!

[TheEliaz78]

@TenStoryLoveSong and you need a brain surgery... Alice cooper sound perfect!

[TenStoryLoveSong]

@TheEliaz78 Can you try that again in English please?

[remindbender]

@TenStoryLoveSong hehe pleases (let) me try...in plain english or globish english? its quite the same *bussi bussi* ;-)

[TenStoryLoveSong]

@remindbender I repeat....



[feebleblunt1]

@TenStoryLoveSong sorry you fail. this is how hw has ALWAYS sounded.

[TenStoryLoveSong]

@feebleblunt1 Wrong. He used to sound great, now he sounds shit!

[AliceCooperColdEthyl]

@TenStoryLoveSong wow. It's good to know that there are some real idiots out there.

[fezzie666]

@TenStoryLoveSong so the fuck what? atleast he's not lip syncing. just saw him in concert last week.

[accessorysales78]

@TenStoryLoveSong

The older and more wrinkled & rough sounding he becomes, the more he seems to turn into what Alice is suppose to be. Funny how this song was out before most if not all the people on the stage were born. Time really works funny.

[Haheehahohaheehoha]

@TenStoryLoveSong

He's better than any pretender that's appeared on this show.

[SwingRiots]

Wish he would have beheaded someone. Preferably Cowell.

[gothicboy15]

orianthi is so awesome on guitar

[liquidgee13]

Love the blonde chick playing the red guitar - and Alice rocks as usual.



[Engineer245]

The gal playing the guitar is the gill playing on stage with Michael Jackson's on "This is it" She is the most amazing I have ever witnessed in my entire life. She plays with no effort and would happen if the she really tryed hard to pay. AMAZING

[giannirodrigues]

O hino oficial dos matadores de aula --- the official anthem of the skipped classes

[ ]'s from Brazil!

[Animelloveer]

HOW THE HELL DID I MISS THIS? I ABSOLUTELY ADORE ALICE COOPER!

[gosensgo6]

[AliceCooperColdEthyl]

@gosensgo6 Could you please record Clones? :)

[gosensgo6]

@AliceCooperColdEthyl i would but i dont have anything to record in with =(



[misanthrodee]

@AliceCooperColdEthyl alice has been doing clones in concert.hopefully hes gonna keep it up for the W2MN tour

[dirtylittlesmokers]

OMG ORIANTHI what a fitty :O

[911problemchild]

ALICE!

[susan29630]

yah, girl on the guitar is awesome

[arthurlorente]

Holy fuck when I started to see the video I was crying to pee but I had to ignore it cuz i couldn't stop seeing the video lol

[sasumekyoto34]

His entrance was pretty B.A! awesome performance

[sueellen360]

wow, that girl is good

[Maharg23]

Worst AI idol season in their (then) 9 year history.

[mlkidd9]

@Maharg23 Well add season 10 along with season 9

[SunaSand]

this is bullshit, Alice only sang the last half and u could barely hear him

i'd like to thank America's dying music quality for that

[jjinexile21]

alice cooper is too much for a shit place like american idol 

[inagels]

@6paidaa i think so... idk

maybe she is =3

[0marylene]

Cool ! 

[6paidaa]

is that orianthy on guitar ?

[ghodium]

uncle alice saves the party again

[Gugered]

That man has more than 62 years old and can kick anyone's butt.

[ricebowlranch]

Ori looks so cute with her hair like that

[1GoPenguins]

Congrats to your induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame...very much deserved & way past due! Rock On Alice!!!

[puppetmaster983]

Alice is so cool.

[TheDrnoo]

who is that girl at 0:15?

[psykosauron]

that girl in schoolgirl outfit should play for him (just for schools out)

weird thought: together with angus? would finnish of the school boy/girl look

[1GoPenguins]

This is a much better recording & sound mix than the original Idol Show of Alice Cooper's Schools Out! Was this remastered? Loved Alice & Ori's performance together! BTW, really liked Orianthi's school girl look 2! :)

[VfxGodOfDK]

That chick rocks the guitar o0!

[rileypupboo]

those kids were just a bubble in there daddys nut sack when this came out in 72

[NutmegPunkle]

a legend , far to good to be on that feat of shite

[roxyguns]

I love Orianthi!

[ditdatdot]

they all sounded worse than church chores. I've heard much better in the street. Alice actually had a louder stronger manlier tone of voice than all those guys. whats this generation coming too

[JeffKnight]

Long time no see, Alice.

[gearjammer5656]

Alice is my god. maybe those little kids learned a thing are two from one of the best showmen of our time, rock on Alice

[pittresident]

mmm... I wonder if that blond headed chick playing guitar is wearing panties. i hope not. very sexy. she gives me a boner.

[pittresident]

The fact is this, I hear a lot of people say Alice Cooper didn't give it his best on the show. No he didn't. But this show isn't about Alice Cooper, it's about the contestants of the show and to put the empathism on them, not Alice.

[xemopengyx]

Lucky bloody kids! :o

[MrGoldengod1]

now i know that alice cooper is probably in his 60's but he looked waaaaay younger than that when he was on american idol

[LordReaper117]

who's the chick playing the guitar?

[Dilpickle2113]

@LordReaper117 Orianthi

[warriorofwrestling]

Always nice to see Alice, I just wish I wasn't seeing him on fucking American Idol >.<

[DraimanBelieve]

Alice Cooper should've performed it without other freaks oversinging him. I have seen him 3x now in the last 4 years and everytime he sings this, Poison and No Mr. Nice Guy and any of his other songs they are 100% top notch. These people sing this shit like they are in school choir. It's a Rock song not a choir song. That's why Cooper sounds weird in this because his vocal style is totally different. You don't mix clean vocals with raspy vocals. Cooper Rules American Idol Sucks my butt.

[warriorofwrestling]

@DraimanBelieve Haha well said dude. I Couldn't agree more

[electrobarbaritron]

ya her and his daughter calico should dike it out!

[crystalroy]

orianthi is hot lol in the school uniform cool preformcance

[Tacom4ster]

Why the hell is he there, American Idol sucks

[IMaiden23]

Alice's children!!!!

[basist1done]

Open our ears, people. Alice Cooper may be a super God in your eyes, but if it was not for Orianthi in the forefront, and the fact that he still has a killer looking bod in all that leather and great hair, the bloke is f'n tone deaf and yeah, this year's contestants don't warrant `Idolship'. NONE of them was worth the effort of my vote....sorry.

[pittresident]

@basist1done The dude doesn't have a great voice, he never has.. but he is an entertainer and puts on one hell of a show and lyrically his songs are just badass. I don't think anyone would dispute that his voice isn't great, but he is a great entertainer. I saw him live in concert a few months ago, best damn show I have ever been to. That dude knows how to rock the stage and put on a show.

[basist1done]

@pittresident - I saw him Halloween 1976 at Memorial Auditorium in Buffalo, NY. Alice Cooper goes to Hell Tour. THAT was a performance! and yes, 33 years have past but the ONLY thing performing on A.I. was Orianthi who ROCKED and the performers. Alice sounded like he just rolled outta bed, smoked a pack of cigs and shotgunned a fifth of Jack. NO voice, man and movement ?? ... rigamortus will destroy us.....

[pittresident]

@basist1done I agree that his performance on A.I wasn't top notch, but he has publicly announced during interviews that he HATES American Idol so it's understandable he wouldn't want to give his best performance and might be the case. I saw him back in May and he rocked the staged, he was amazing. In fact, he outperformed Rob Zombie in my opinion. Zombie kept becoming short of breath, Alice was all over the stage rockin' and never became short winded.

[oursedatedyouth]

@pittresident Alice never stated he hated American Idol. Show me that interview.

[Zenutheduck]

@basist1done "I saw him Halloween 1976 at Memorial Auditorium in Buffalo, NY. Alice Cooper goes to Hell Tour."

I know this is an older comment, but there was no Goes To Hell tour or any concerts that year.

[AliceCooperColdEthyl]

@Zenutheduck This tour was known as The Alice Cooper Show 1976, and the Welcome To My Nightmare Tour 76

[Zenutheduck]

@AliceCooperColdEthyl - That was 1977.

[Zenutheduck]

@AliceCooperColdEthyl - Those two tours occured in 1977. The WTMN 77 tour was down under. "The King of the Silver Screen Tour" as it was actually called was also in 1977.

[AliceCooperColdEthyl]

@Zenutheduck Silver screen tour promoted LAce n whiskey. Not Goes To Hell ;)

[Zenutheduck]

@AliceCooperColdEthyl - I was correcting your title of "The Alice Cooper Show" since that wasn't the name of the tour, just the live album. There were absolutely no shows in 1976 and there was no tour to promote "Goes To Hell."

[basist1done]

@pittresident As a performer, you give it everything you got. It doesn't matter if you're playing in front of 5 or 50,000. To use the excuse that he hates American Idol to F off is bullshit, and to actually be on a show that he hates makes him a hypocrite. So to me it is not understandable. Give it everything you got or don't give it at all!

[pittresident]

@basist1done Ok dude, whatever. You saw him in concert in 76', you're criticizing him over a performance on a dumb show such as A.I. I saw him in May. Go see a live concert of his now, then come back and criticize him so at least your criticism holds weight. As for being a hypocrite, whatever. We are all hypocrites. We've all done something we've hated. All of us are guilty at being a hypocrite at some point, so what? get over it.

[pittresident]

@basist1done Additionally, when I saw Cooper back in May I went with my best friend and his dad, his dad is a huge Alice Cooper fan and saw Cooper in concert 4 times during the 70's, last being in 79. Even he said that his concert and performance now is way better than it was during the 70's and he was very impressed how Alice seemed to be in better shape now than during the 70's. 

[barbwood1958]

@pittresident - I'm not saying he doesn't rock.ALL I"M SAYING IS THAT HIS PERFORMANCE ON A.I. SUCKED!!! and it did. Whatever....

[ejnerhestetand]

ALICE COOPER IS THE BEST

[badwitch62]

we might not be able to get him elected, but if u click on my name and then clink on sign the petition...so alice will be in the hall of fame....u know after 40 some yrs of rockin, he wants to be in there

[rlawho1]

I love Alice Cooper, but I hate American Idol.

[rlawho1]

I was appalled until Alice Cooper appeared. I love Alice Cooper, but I hate American Idol.

[TheRadnoc]

Summer's national anthem 7-8 years ago!!! I graduated high scool in '73. That was our anthem. It came out that summer. You diaper doper babies have such a stoned out generation, noone's creative. Rap music. What a joke. Get self educated,'cause the schools certainly aren't teaching you how to think on your own. Sheeple Idiots.

[JEDIALADDIN]

Elect Alice Cooper for President in 2012....he has a real birth certificate!!!

[badwitch62]

and thinking about this, don't get me wrong, i'm not putting the girl down.....what about joan jett, heart, fleetwood mac, their are alot of female guitarists, u just have to think about it......and as far as "thought with all the school viloence they would even play this song on national tv"...this song was declared the summers national athem ahhhh, about 7=8 yrs ago

[badwitch62]

people, please.... damon and keri was in the back ground playing for ALICE, thats how ALICE rolls...he's not going to take any chances!!!!!...the girl was good, but lets face facts AL put her in "eyes view".....ALICE had his own back up!!!!!!!

HE IS THE MASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROCK ON ALICE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tmenta246]

NATALIE RICHARDS IS SO AMAZING!

[SioLeeify]

Did you notice Lee held Siobhan's hands? 1:12 ....But why? Is it part of the choreo or Lee just can't resist to touch Siobhan?!! awwww!!!!!

[fortheloveoftunes]

1:27 Hell yeah!

[mraliceone]

the girl ought to be on tour with alice she sounds great and would have a great visual effect....alice rocks

[TannMannMetalHead]

@mraliceone and shes a total babe!!

[pittresident]

@mraliceone I agree 100%, but only if all those chicks wearing the cute school girl uniform didn't wear any panties underneath their skirt.

[BoyleTonight]

@mraliceone He already has his beautiful daughter, Calico. Keri Kelli has to stay.

[TheWyldeSlash]

@mraliceone Thats Orianthi that played for Micheal Jackson



[cfreckna]

@mraliceone like a Meat Loaf kind of thing?

[HaistaPaska92]

@mraliceone She just became officially part of Alice's band.

[MrBluntsworth420]

@mraliceone I dont know if you are aware, but the chick on guitar (Orianthi)who is featured in this video is now actually in Alice's band as a replacement for Damon Johnson.

[mraliceone]

@MrBluntsworth420 yes i read that last week...this is great news

[belldonna81]

Who figures ALICE would come on AI and who figured they would play this? I thought with all the school viloence they would even play this song on national tv? If that girl was really playing guitar-=kudos for her! She had Glen's sound down. RIP Glen Buxton!

[drglassdancer]

Hows the upskirt shots at the end.. naughty naughty schoolgirls

[grumbada]

@chopter29 Orianthi, probably one of the best female guitarists of our time.

[MawiieCooper]

Alice put so much energy when he sings, you can tell he still loves what he does =)

[chopster29]

Who is the guitarist that ROCKS!!??

[sbbihalyak]

@chopster29

Orianthi, she s awesome!

[sbbihalyak]

@chopster29 Orianthi

[caitlinjane92]

@chopster29 That's Orianthi, the best female guitarist EVER! :D

[DepartmentOfYouth0]

Great!! Alice rocks ;D

[adhdnorge]

Really weird alice cooper has even said that he was not very fond of the program.

[albi169]

Alice Cooper rocks.

[devilduck5150]

Man , I've been a huge Alice fan for years !!! To me , this was AWESOME !!!!

[MrBluntsworth420]

Not bad for American Idol...

[pandabulat]

I LOVE IT! ROCK ON!!

[HolyFudginCrackpots]
