About Alice Everyday

"Alice Everyday" is the eighth single released by the American synthpop band Book of Love. The song was released prior to the band's third album, 1991's Candy Carol, as the first single."Alice Everyday" was released to radio in the fall of 1990 and features sing-song lyrics and a refrain consisting of a laundry list of girls' names. In the dance clubs, the song was a moderate hit, and made it to no. 21 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart, spending nine weeks on the chart. The track was remixed for the 12" single and CD single into three different remixes by Ben Grosse, and was released in stores on Jan. 18, 1991. All three remixes were also edited down into single mixes and released on the promo CD. "Alice Everyday" (Sam The Butcher Mix) contains samples from The Brady Bunch TV series, a drumbeat sample from Nitzer Ebb's "Let Your Body Learn", and other industrial music samples. Also appearing on the single are the album version of title track "Candy Carol" and a 1990 remix by Ben Grosse of "With A Little Love", a song originally on the band's previous album, 1988's Lullaby. A promotional video was shot and released for "Alice Everyday" by director Rocky Schenck. There are two versions of the video; one that uses the album version of "Alice Everyday" and the other, the 'Everyday-Glo Mix' version of the song. The video emulates the Candy Carol album cover, with the band dancing and performing inside of snow globes and wearing outfits similar to the album cover.
