Im Eighteen
The story behind the song
"I'm Eighteen" captures the raw, confused energy of youth, a feeling of being on the cusp of adulthood without quite knowing what to do with it. It speaks to the universal experience of feeling lines form on your face and hands, yet still not always knowing what you're talking about. This breakthrough single from the band's 1971 album Love It to Death helped launch Alice Cooper's theatrical shock rock into the mainstream. At its heart, the song embodies the exhilarating, bewildering freedom of being eighteen and liking it, even when you're not sure why.
