Alice Cooper - Quiet Room/ I Never Cry (Live 1979)

The Strange Case of Alice Cooper is a live concert video release of Alice Cooper, first released on VHS in 1979. The concert was filmed on April 9, 1979 during Cooper's 'Madhouse Rock' Tour in support of the album "From The Inside" in San Diego, California.

Lyrics:
The California air
Your nightgown on the stairs
I remember every night
Scenes from home in the Quiet Room

How long have I been gone
Did winter kill the lawn
And all those polaroids you sent
Are on the wall in the Quiet Room

They've got this place
Where they've been keeping me
Where I can't hurt myself
I can't get my wrists to bleed
Just don't know why
Suicide appeals to me

The Quiet Room
Is sterilized and white
It's like a tomb
With just a moth stained naked night

Plastic forks and spoon
No laces in my shoes
They allknow what I tried to do
Outside the Quiet Room

This quiet place
It ain't so new to me
It's haunted atmosphere
Has heard so many scream
My home from home
My twilight zone
My strangest dream

My confidant
I have confessed my life
The Quiet Room
Knows more about me than my wife

They've got this place
Where they've been keeping me
Where I can't hurt myself
I just can't
I just can't get these damn wrists to bleed

A mattress on the floor
No handles on the door
I really need nothing here
I'm alone

Oh yeah I remember this...there was a time when musicians were actually talented and they all put on killer live shows

[faroutfreddy]

I first saw him in 1973 live...i also caught him recently at Florida theatre, twice. 1200 people, sold out. He is still great... Egro, the Nurse..straight jacket, an gilatin, .full opera show. He is a great performer..

[LindsayMarie]

Thank you for posting this! Alice Cooper is like wine; he only gets better with time! I just hope I can see him one more time in concert before he retires! 

[thecrustyJman]

I love the old Crazy Alice. This videos fucking awesome. Seriously who else does that shit on stage!

[saisripleng]

Quiet Room. Pure blood and tears on the page, . Along with "How Will you See Me Now?" Alice's most poignant and deeply moving personal song. Alice was most scary here.

[btofan]

This was a scary time for our hero. Alcoholism had taken its toll and the suffering extended well beyond his shows and his personal life. But his faith and the love of a special woman brought him out of the depths of darkness and into the light.

[derezende]

Absolutely sensational. The way she acts in this medley, is something very rare to see, Alice is legend!

[urkibalerdiayerbe]

This is awesomw. True rock legend, his best album from the inside. This performance was a real masterpiece.

[MrTonyodell]

just a mouth stain naked light., , Sometimes I drink more then I need. WOW love this song saw him in 2019 he is still the shock rock KING

[iamthatguy]

Showman thru n thru, albeit a bit skinny and raspy here. If I didn't know better I would be worried for his health here, but this is the future and we know it all turns out good for Alice.

[Lumiclan]

I like this version than all the rest. I like how the song sounds.

[bobdevries]

Next week I'm going into a mental institution to quit drinking...
Looking forward to it. I hope to meet a nurse Rosetta lookalike there! 😁😁😁

[jaymarkverdadero]

i love song i never cry audio, not live supposedly crazy

[jackvegt]

Mixed emotions, that's how I feel. One of the best songs ever, but why on earth does he still flirt with the life style that took him down.

[michaelbarens]

my first concert on acid oakland March 31, 1979

[davidparnow]

I was there in that in that situation tried to Kill my self many times

[robertkristiansen]

I like Alice more as a HorrorRocker than Ozzy Osbourne..Alice has Better Songs and a Better StageAct atleast during the 1970s..!Dont like his Puddelrockarea with Terrible songs like Poison..

[glutusmaximus]

The coop did'nt look to good in this vid prob due to his alchoholizm.
