RSCnet 579 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Being my first go at this, I would like everyone to know I love all types of music, from Mozart to Metallica and everything in between. Hard Rock is by far my favorite though. And most who do not care for this type of music are really not opening their minds to it IMO. For several reasons, some of the most rediculous being that it is satanic music to the more likely one which is they can't understand the singer. Others say it's all screaming and nothing else. My goal with a series of blogs is to squash some misbelief about this type of music by choosing songs that I think have an inspirational message, or have a personal meaning to me. Most will be from the '80's to present date. I am going to choose Alice Cooper's "Hey Stoopid" as the first song, this particular song has a personal effect on me and I use to listen to it often when I was at the lowest points n my life, back then I listened to alot of things. These days it serves as a reminder to me that things can be and have been much worse and that no matter what you should pick yourself up from life's issues. Like Rocky said "It's not how hard you can hit, but how hard you can get hit and get back up". First the lyrics in written from and the Youtube video of the song, the video is very 80's. "Hey Stoopid" [Alice Cooper/Jack Ponti/Vic Pepe/Bob Pfeifer] Hey bro, take it slow You ain't livin' in a video You're flying low with a high velocity No doubt, you're stressin' out That ain't what rock n' roll's about Get off that one way trip down lonely street Now I know you've been kicked around You ain't alone in this ugly town You stick a needle in your arm You bite the dust, you buy the farm [CHORUS] Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid What ya tryin' to do Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid They win you lose Hey, hye, hey, hey, hey stoopid C'mon girl, it's a better day Get your foot out of that grave Don't let that one love tear your world apart C'mon babe, kick that stuff Show the street it ain't so tough Quit lyin' around with a crippled, broken heart Now I know you've been seeing red Don't put a pistol to your head sometimes your answer's heaven sent Your way is so damn permanent [CHORUS] This ain't your daddy talkin' You know, I know Your story ain't so shocking You know, I know Blow some steam C'mon and scream [CHORUS] View the full article 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
