Not true. The 'fans', well the semi-intelligent ones anyway, can determine what is or isn't plausible add it to the possible and come up with the probable. It's people like you who make shit up and twist things for your own agenda...whatever the hell that may be

Agreed

get your facts right !!! All they had to do was wait a few more months there was no rush. What do they say" money is the root of all evil "!!
Truth !!

Meat,
I don't want to cause a stir but you did actually perform DIMP with Karla in the 70's !! You can see how some might think you liked it...

He's also performed songs from Bat3 and he's come out said he pretty much doesn't like the album. Just because you sing a song doesn't mean you have to like it.

MeatGrl1 · 13 Sep 2010, 00:49

I understand that but few don't

MeatGrl1 · 13 Sep 2010, 00:51

I'm pretty sure Meat didn't do Dance in my Pants till the 1988 tour.

Pudding · 13 Sep 2010, 11:44

I think you're correct. DIMP in the 70's doesn't sound right to me

Sarge · 13 Sep 2010, 11:48

Maybe she's thinking of the DIMP music video with Karla and is mistaking Jim for Meat?

AndrewG · 13 Sep 2010, 12:03

Those videos with Jim sucked big time imo.

Pudding · 13 Sep 2010, 12:18

Disturbingly quite a few music video's with Jims music had men dancing around in loin cloths

Which really broke Bat in May of 1978. History always gets rewritten. Or John Skyes who got 2outa 3 on the radio in Buffalo , where it broke .

I don't know. To me it sounds that with David Sonenberg involved it could end up with the artist owing everyone else money.

please let's not get back on to talking about the financial status of an artist regardless of when it was, it was bad enough in the underrated thread.

No-one said you were a total idiot. Maybe I'm wrong but I can't quite comprehend how you could have possibly have heard Meat sing that song with Karla as she was gone from Meat's band by the 1982 tour and I doubt Steinman would have used Dance in my Pants during the Bat tour as otherwise it would be more widely known.

Steve6 · 13 Sep 2010, 15:24

I've never heard Meat singing "Dance in my pants" I doubt any recording exists even a live one. DIMP was Paradise Part II. I thought the title sucked.... "Dance in my Pants"

The only song Meat recorded from BFG in the early 80s was Rock N Roll dreams, because it was supposed to be on Dead Ringer until they traded. But that version has never surfaced, but I'm sure it does exist somewhere.

There are at least two different versions of Meat singing Dance In My Pants live in 1988 circulating, one from Vienna and the other from Birmingham.

Paradise Part II.

thanks for that.

I never intended to make you look like a "total idiot". It was just an assumption as apparently no one knows of such a recording (Meat & Karla that is). I sometimes mix something up myself.

If you do, maybe you have further info on it? I don't know any Meat Loaf version of that song prior to the late 1980s, so I'd like to know when and where he allegedly sang it with Karla.

AndrewG · 13 Sep 2010, 16:12

That is a great live version imo. Thanks for posting. Must have been great but weird at the same time hearing Meat doing a pretty much completely unknown song.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what Jim was doing was trying to write a Bat sequel or copy with BFG.
BFG -> copy/sequel to Bat
Pants -> copy/sequel to Paradise
Left in The Dark -> copy/sequel to 2 out of Three / For Crying Out Loud
Lost Boys & Golden Girls -> copy/sequel to Heaven Can Wait
Stark Raving Love and/or Frying Pan could perhaps even be considered a sequel to All Revved Up.

He basically stuck with the same elements and themes. I personally don't see anything wrong with that and think BFG has more than enough exciting and beautiful songs but at the same time I can understand Meat's part disinterest in doing something that is so similar in structure. In my opinion not until Total Eclipse did we get something COMPLETELY new from Steinman.
