"Stand" - Alice Cooper and Xzibit
'Stand' by Alice and Xzibit is the only reason I give this CD 3 eyes rating. The rest of this CD seems slow and drawn out. Before hearing this track I was worried Alice would rap. If you read some of my other reviews such as 'DragonTown' or 'Shocker' you know why. Thankfully he left it to the professionals and Xzibit does a damn good job. Alice uses his rock n roll voice which is what he delivers in full force. Originally from Alexander Hamilton but quoted throughout history Alice sings the following line in the chorus.

...if you don't stand for something
you will fall for anything...

As for the rest of the CD I say from track 11 on down isn't bad. Some of the other artists who collaborate are Moby & Public Enemy, Sting & Mariza, Eno, Skin & Rachid Taha to name a few.
I won't even get into Avril Lavigne butchering Dylan's 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door'.
