Da Da
DaDa is the 15th studio album by Alice Cooper, released in 1983. DaDa would be Cooper's last album until his sober re-emergence in 1986 with the album Constrictor. The album's theme is ambiguous, however, ongoing themes in the songs' lyrics suggest that the main character in question suffers from mental illness, resulting in the creation of many different personalities. the album alludes strongly to the dadaist movement.
"I Love America" was released as a single solely in the UK over a month after the album's release.
Cooper reportedly has no recollection of recording DaDa, or the preceding album Zipper Catches Skin, due to alcohol abuse. Cooper stated "I wrote them, recorded them and toured them and I don’t remember much of any of that." There was no tour to promote DaDa, and none of its songs have ever been played live.
Dick Wagner has suggested that the album was a contract fulfillment requirement for which the label was not pleased. This and other details, like the real-life cocktail waitresses that inpsired "Scarlet and Sheba" are in his autobiography Not Only Women Bleed.
