Alice Cooper. What a legend. With his trademark theatrical make-up and a gallows or guillotine always on hand to dispatch his fiendish stage persona straight to hell, Alice has left an indelible impression on the history of rock.
To celebrate the release of Alice’s 25th studio album, we thought it was a good time to look back over some of the best songs of his career. This is our Top Ten - feel free to add your own favourite Alice Cooper songs in the comments section.
10) I’m Eighteen

Featured on their major label debut, “Love It To Death”, it’s become a heavy metal classic through the years - and the teenage angst theme would feature in future Cooper tracks like School’s Out and Teenage Lament ‘74.

The Sugababes are one of the most enduring girl groups we’ve ever seen in the UK. They started their chart careers back in 2000 as glum-faced teens, but with a surprisingly fresh urban sound that was more interesting that the kind of pop Atomic Kitten were flogging at the time.

She’s one of the hottest pop/R&B artists in the world right now, so we’ve taken a look back over Rihanna’s singles and picked out the best musical moments of her career so far. Starting with…
This one hasn’t been released in the UK yet, but it’s going to be an instant dancefloor classic.
It’s probably the most blatantly club-oriented track Rihanna has released to date (yes, even better than SOS). Pumping bass, classic Jacko sample and tres hot video. Brill.

I’ve got a lot to thank Bon Jovi for. Back in the day (that’s 1988, kiddies), they were my earliest introduction to the wonderful world of Hair Metal. It’s been quite a ride, and the ‘Jovi sound has mellowed in the intervening years.
So, if you’re a fan of classic Bon Jovi, let’s take a look down memory lane at 10 of their best-known songs:
