View Full Version : NEXT UK SINGLE RELEASE CONFIRMED FOR 24 NOVEMBER!!!!
I've been reminding Mercury that we are waiting for info, and have finally heard that they have scheduled the next single release in the UK for 24 November, and that it will be Man of Steel.
They are waiting for decisions about tracks for b-sides. They have promised to confirm the information to me as soon as they have details of the whole package :) Responsibility for all things Meat has passed to someone else at Mercury now, and I am waiting to hear the results of the survey, which I will ask Rainer to post on the Mercury Survey thread as soon as the info is to hand.
In the meantime we'll be making new posters available to raise awareness of the new single .. perhaps with some advance effort, plus of course the big factor that Meat will be touring here this time, may mean we can see this one be a winner for Meat :))

It obviously makes sense to release another single to coincide with the UK leg of the tour.
I'm surprised it's Man of Steel though. Certainly wouldn't have been my first choice.
But if it's promoted properly there's no reason why it shouldn't do well in the charts.
That's great. MOS is the best song of the album. :D :D :D :D :D
There you go Bart .. we made somebody's day :)
There isn't a song on the album I don't like, and I think Man of Steel is an interesting thoughtful choice given its projected market .. a big ballad with a solid rock sound which could be just what will appeal to the UK .. and a good length too :)
But a few months ago Tesify would be the new single.
I know it was being discussed here Michel .. but you may remember I said Mercury told me no decision had been made, but that it wouldn't be Testify ..
I started a topic suggesting Testify should be the next single, oh well!
Has anyone tried to find a web site for Mercury? I found something which was a part of Universal Music so I'm sure this is the one but no mention of Meat Loaf at all. What's going on there?
However, Man Of Steel is a good choice.

Any word on whether they intend to do a video for it, Caryl?
Just curious...I know Meat said that money was tight for videos these days...

As much as i like MOS, it seems such a strange choice, it wasnt even on Meats tour rehearsal list. I guess if its his latest single it will be on every UK show Set List.

Good point, Chris. I'm wondering if Patti or Renee will sing Pearl's part??

The website you mention Luke is Mercury's website .. but they don't seem to update it much .. :(
And re a video MB, nothing has been mentioned, and as you say Meat's pointed out that they are very expensive to make now :( My own thought is that given the cost against the likelyhood of it getting sufficient playtime in the UK to have a significant effect on sales it's unlikely .. unless Meat is able to get one in the style of the CHSIB video in the can in time for the release ..
but they don't seem to update it much
But that's rubbish!!!!!! Time for a strongly worded email to someone who won't listen......

Thanks, Caryl! With Meat's upcoming schedule of concerts, there probably wouldn't be much time for it, would there!!
I wonder just how much videos DO help the sale of a single?? I really have no idea how much one influences sales these days.

Tanks for the information, Caryl. :D
Now my opinion. Personally I think it's one of the best songs on the album, but I hope that they will promote the single this time.
There is a god, somewhere then.... :D
I think MOS is absolutely the right choice for his next single. A classic soft rock ballad - i really think this will do well :D

I agree - this is a good choice. Lets hope that the current UK tours mean more exposure for this single on radio & TV. Who knows - it could be a Christmas hit. :D :D

woooohooooo.
this is great news thanks!
think MOS will go down great!!
come on NO1!!!!
Great choice I think, although I would have liked Testify. I think a video would promote the song a lot more, as a lot of people get to find out about the release of singles through channels like MTV, VH1 or The BOX. The record company should get off their arses and stump up some money. After all, Meat's done most of the hard work, but Mercury just sit back and watch the money drop into the coffer's. But I do understand, maybe Meat is too busy to do a video. But I still think Mercury are still a bunch of money grabbin gits :evil:

Very happy that MOS will be next single (I suggested it should be, in the other thread 8)).
& since its coming out next month theres a chance it'll be performed on the UK leg of the tour (especially in Cardiff PLEEEEASE!) :D
Is 24th November a Definate date? (or as definate as we're likely to get?)

But hopefully they'll promote it right and it'll be a big hit !

The record company playing safe again. A big power ballad for Meat to release. Testify should have been the next single, it's by far the best song on the album. MOS is a good song, but I really would have liked a more upbeat song to be the next single.
I am very happy about MOS being the next single, even though it's not in my country. It's my favourite track on the album. I hope Mercury does a better job with it than they did with CHSIB.
I wonder how it will be performed if done live. Will Pearl's vocal be replayed in the same manner as things like Jim Steinman's parts are sometimes done? Meat might think that Pearl's vocal should remain (especially if he considers the father/daughter thing to be especially important), on the other hand he might think it's ok that Patti do that part given that it would look really strange doing a duet with someone who isn't there.

I'd very much doubt it he'd sing it to a backing track. I hope not. Then again it's not guaranteed he will have it on the set list even if it is released as a single.

I agree Winston ... I can't see him singing it to a backing track either.
More than likely, he would sing it with Patti.
Vicki
Why not? Ellen Foley was on the album for Bat1 .. Karla toured.

18 Oct 2003, 02:55
And another example would be, I believe its the same vein, but Mrs. Loud sang the female lead on Anything for Love, but Patti's always sung it live. Granted, I believe there was always the plan for a female singer to come in for the tour, etc. but its sorta the same thing as what you're all saying :) !
Or, I believe this was actually a typo in the articles, like someone else suggested to me, but could there be any thread of truth to the NINE piece band mentioned in two of the Australia articles Shane's posted here? Maybe a chance Pearl might be joining the tour again? I dont think its gonna happen (and hey if im wrong, cool!), (and not for anything bad, i just think its not been long enough to incorporate two more people, etc), but just figured i'd throw the thought out for hopefully some more discussion is all!
There's always the chance that maybe, if Pearl's not actually involved in the tour, and if there is a chance MOS gets added to the show, that hey, why does it always have to be Patti that sings lead with Meat(and please dont think i dont like Patti -- hello, i think she's absolutely wonderful and talented!), why couldnt this be a chance to have Renee come down front for something other then the amazing guitar solos she's performed so far this tour? Again, just another thought!
Take care!

Maybe they won't sing it on stage - Runnin' For The Red Light was released as the single during the 1996 tour and that was never sung during the concerts.

Hi! I didn't realize that, Sue! Do you, or anyone, have any idea how it did as a single? I'm just curious if it made a difference. :??:
But if they do perform it, I have to agree with Jen! This might just be the perfect way to allow Renee a little time in the spotlight!! She gets a little at the beginning of Testify and of course, during the Introductions.
But MOS might just be perfect!! Great idea, Jen!
Wish we could all be there, but some of us will just have to wait to hear what happens! :P

Hey, I was just throwing little possibilities out just for the sake of more discussion really! :) Doesn't necessarily mean i was thinking anything i wrote was correct or such!
You know Sue's probably more correct about the single, sadly there probably wont even be a video. Lemon was released as a single here to radio back in 93, a little after Anything for Love, and of course there was never a video or such (although we all know that song has been performed in concert basically ever since! that's not a complaint!), but they did however perform it on Letterman (they performed Anything for Love for Leno). Look at it this way, at least another single is in fact being released! Take care!

There's another thread (here http://www.mlukfc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2285) about Runnin' For The Red Light but Neil did post that it was in the charts for 3 weeks and reached #21. The previous singles from WTTN went higher in the charts but for a third single from an album that had already been out for 6 months by then, 21 isn't bad placing.
That's what worries me about releasing another single from CHSIB over six months after the release of the album. When RFTRL was released they weren't singing it live on stage, there were no TV appearances singing it and certainly it my area it didn't get any radio play....the only way I heard about it was an advert in the WTTN tour programme so hopefully they'll at least do that too.

My thoughts exactly, i couldnt have put it any better, MOS is a great song but i would have put DIST, LYOL, Testify, TMD and BOY before it. I wonder which one Germany is getting as a release? (if any)?
Winston
18 Oct 2003, 21:10
Agree with you on that Chris except for BOY. Weak song. Too much of a boyband song. I don't like it.
Frying Pan
19 Oct 2003, 00:23
I agree with Chris,I really wanted Testify as the next single it could've potentially been a big hit its different but still very strong, MOS is good but not my fav this decision surprised me, I expected DIST or perhaps Testify.
It deserves a high placing but will probably just scrape top 40.
To be honest, i'm really glad they didn't choose Testify as the next UK single release. I agree, it's different, but i just don't think it would appeal to the mainstream of this country, and lets face it, that is what this is all about - pleasing the masses, and unfortunately the masses are interested in manufactured rubbish like pop idol and so on.
A MASSIVE mistake... Complete rubbish if you ask me. If Meat was one of these artists that released a single each month then you could understand this decision; but as it is, you're lucky if you get on single release a year on average.
Man of Steel isn't strong enough and the average person won't be interested. It simply doesn't releate enough to life and it's just another Meat Power ballard. Nothing new, nothing different.
Don't get me wrong, I like the song and it's a good album song... but it isn't a single song.
As many people have said, Testify should have been the next single. The fact the Album was going to be based around this single shows it's strength and it's the strongest track on the album.
Man of Steel will be another flop and the only chance it has of making any sort of impact is if the fans going the shows buy the single during the tour. I hope it happens, but I can't personally see it to be honest. It's too much of a risk.
Like I have said many times... i hope this is just a one album deal because this current lable is shit. I hope they don't have Bat 3 on their lable because they simply are not big enough and don't have a clue about promotion.
Virgin need to take up bat 3 as they did an amazing job with Bat 2, Welcome and the very best of.
Man of steel will flop. Does meat not have ANY say in this? I can't believe he does because things are screwed up and he's a perfectionist.

Complete rubbish... eveyone loves testify, even people who are not into meat and with radio play would become huge. it's different and the closest thing to classic meat on the album. it is THE song on the album and everyone who has heard it rate the song. Why don't the retarded idiots at the lable actually listen to people and not the fat bald ~~~~ers they call directors. I really dont think they give a shit and are just throwing whatever out!

I think Heat and others of us who like the choice of Man of Steel don't deserve to have our view dismissed as "rubbish". You may disagree, that's your perogative, as is ours to have a different view. I happen to think MOS is a good choice, and a great song. You don't, but I will not accuse you of talking rubbish, nor indeed of being a "retarded idiot" .. which is a particularly unpleasant choice of words imo :(
As to your comments about Mercury label, I would think that Meat is most certainly involved in the decisions. The reason that they were unable to tell me what additional tracks would be included was that they are waiting to have decisions pased on to them from his management people. So when you are roundly dismissing the choice and decisions, you might want to address them to Meat. And I don't for a minute think that Meat and those involved have not given a considerable amount of thought about the market in which they are releasing this CD.
Oh .. and as to Virgin, Meat said that they would have scuppered AFL if he hadn't realised what was going on and intervened in time .. so it's worth bearing that in mind when damning Mercury

Spot on, the record label have done an awful job with this album they've made no effort to make it a success. Just look at the CHSIB single releases, total farce.
I'm not sure that any second single from the album will be a hit.
The album will have already been out for 6 months in November so lots of people will already have the album. I appreciate that some fans will buy it whatever but even if the other tracks on the CD are something VERY special, how will people know what they are? Any radio station that plays the single won't talk about the other tracks too, just the main track. There are only about 500 people on MLUKFC so even if we all bought the single, it's not enough to get in the Top Ten.
Also they'll be in the middle of a tour so I doubt that they'll have time to do a load of TV and radio shows - they did with CHSIB and it only got to #31.
I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it.

I totally disagree with you CarlyB... an opinion is an opinion, but it's the wrong one and my mind isn't going to be changed. And it would seem many people would agree. It's a weak song and will do nothing to attract attention from casual music fans.
IF, and thats a very big 'if', they listen to it, it will just be seen as a usual meat song. Testify on the other hand... all the little kiddys like the song and a lot of people into depressive rock also respect the song due to this...
Every cut that heals reveals a scar that you can never hope to hide. All the pain that you restrain keeps building up deep inside. If you think you're above it then its you my friend that I implore. You've got to walk before you run. See the night before the dawn. Before you pull yourself off the floor.
With a nation of new depressed kids this has caught their hearts and minds and has opened up a new area and lots of younger people have a respect for the song. Anyway, this should have been the single. this has top 10 written all over it.
Man of Steel will scrape in the top 40 if lucky.
Remember, i'm young and understand the music trends of today...

Disagree as much as you like. I was not seeking to change your mind, just pointing out that for someone to hold a different opinion to you does not mean that it is necessarily "rubbish". And if you read the thread here you will find that just as some agree with you, others agree with Heat.
I did not know your age, for saying "My opinion is different so yours is wrong!" is not confined to the young :) But I will for sure in future remember you are young. However, a recent US survey of the record buying public showed that over 50% of those who bought albums last year were baby boomers, and Meat's fans span 3 generations.
And we still don't know what additional tracks will be on the single. Perhaps Meat will take your counsel and include Testify, in which case it should appeal to the widest market.
B-Sides are of no interest to the public. B-sides do not sell singles. The American market is totally different from over here so your comment is totally irrelevant. My comment about age was soley based on knowing what the majority of British people buy and go for. Without a doubt, people under the age of 25 are the ones buying singles each week and unless something is seen as 'cool' it doesn't sell well.
The only chance the single has is to hope that the people going the shows will buy the single and push it higher.
The fact you believe the addition of Testify as a b-side/2nd track will be a selling point totally discredits any 'factually' comments you make!
Get with the times :p

Get with the times
I didn't say I believed this .. I just said that perhaps this might be the case IF as you say no-one under 25 will be interested in Man of Steel, which I don't necessarily accept lock, stock and barrel. To pay some service to another's point of view does not invalidate one's own, nor discredit it.
You might want to get with the dictionary though :)
My innermost and heartfelt apologies for my lack of such extraordinary use of English. I feel I ought to praise you on proficiently demonstrating your comprehension of the language. Regrettably I do not have the time, or desire, to reside on the forum all the hours god sends, like certain people. I am sure my level of astuteness would be no measure in comparison with your good self. Please exonerate me while I burst into fits of laughter!
Anyway, I don't recall stating there was some law where only the people below the age of 25 can buy singles. I was stating, if you took the time to read, that the majority of people buying are under the above age. I'm sure this isn't too hard for you to comprehend being such the intellect that you appear to be.
Your opinion is just that, an opinion. I'm not going to produce an essay on why you are incorrect in your opinion. You are correct in stating it is a good song, but if you open your eyes and take off your 'I love everything meat related' blinkers you'd take onboard my comments and understand they are both reasonable and correct.
I no doubt expect another equally pointless reply from you!

Why is this being committed to a flop before it has a chance?
OK MOS is not my favourite track on the albumn but it's a great song none the less. We are not talking here about music that is aimed at one age related market we are talking music that bridges generations.
Personally I like it and my kids who are under 25 and regular single buyers love it!
If you really think this choice is a safe bet then how come almost everyone says Testify. Now that would have been playing it safe.

Even if it only makes the top ten it is a great achievment, knowing what the music scene is dominated by rubbish cover songs, Rap and Dance.

Most people agree that they just love Testify along with many others on the album Testify tends to score the highest however.

After the farce which was the release of Couldn't Have Said It Better the single... it will be a great achievement if firstly it actually makes the top 40 and amazing if it breaks the top 30.
If there are only 7700 produced again then that isn't enough to make anything in the charts.

WOW! Who would've thought the next single would cause such controversy! :wink: I'm just grateful there is another single being released & would buy it no matter what it was - I love all the songs on CHSIB.
If the record company wanted to take a risk then I think that Do It! probably would have been the one to choose in my opinion.
In response to an earlier comment about buying singles for B-sides - I bought the German Did I Say That? for Decadent Wish - Though I am probably in a minority of people who would go through the trouble of ordering a foreign CD from a foreign website :oops:
Anyway, roll on 24th November (& 15th Nove for the Cardiff concert! :D )
Now to sit back & see how many people disagree with me :twisted:
(By the way I'm a youngster too - only 22! :P )
But you fail to see the point I was making, you're a huge Meat fan Duke and not the average person (I don't mean that with any disrespect.).
Do It would totally flop. It is another that only Meat fans would buy.
Without a doubt the strongest tracks from the album to the none-Meat/casual/kids/average music fans would be...
1) Testify (New, different, catchy, appeals to more people)
2) Did I Say That (with the amazing video)
3) Couldn't Have Said It Better (should have been top 10 if promoted right. Typical Meat format.)
4) Because of You (maybe)
5) Man of Steel (Pretty much standard Meat Loaf)
6) Unsaid - enough said...
400,000 tickets sales for the tour, if 1/8th of these people buy the single, it would be number 1 but its all down to promotion. I don't know why people don't see this. You can't just put it in the shops and hope it sells. I can't be arsed going on about the same things because Meat's with a shit lable who know shit all!!!

I thought you'd be the one to reply to my post Icwuke! :D
I know that Do It! wouldn't do very well in UK - Thats why it would be a big risk!
I can understand both sides of the argument (though I may not be able to express it very well here - I understand it in my head! :roll: ) in that Testify is a great song & different to Meat's usual singles and would possibly open up a new audience for Meat's music especially as it is so different from most of the shite around at the moment. However, as Meat's previous (recent) singles have been ballads, the single buying public will immediately recognise the song as Meats - as you have pointed out, which may put it at a disadvantage as it is "another Meat Loaf Ballad".
However (again) "bands" such as Westlife have no problem dishing out Ballad after Ballad, so why shouldn't Meat have success with this good song - if advertised, played on radio etc and the release generally not bollocksed up like CHSIB's release?
Out of interest, how big of a Meat Loaf fan are you?
Winston
21 Oct 2003, 23:32
Meat Loaf V Westlife. Celebrity Death Match :P
They are both different artists (if thats what u want to call Wetlife), the market is totally different for each other.
Hey DOH,
just glad to hear someone likes Decadent Wish as much as we do. Very cool song. Wonder if it will ever be released anywhere else than other on the German single? Off to listen to again, thanks for the reminder.
T
I have been in a very `Decadent Wish' mood lately. It is the best song to fit a situation I am in at the moment. I like the energy of both the arrangements and the vocals (Meat's and the backgrounds). The lyrics are also great. I like to picture myself singing the song to someone special.

I'm as obsessed with Meat as anyone here... Just look on the Meat Birthday post and read what I put there about just what Meat's music means to me... then come back and question how much of a fan i am!
Lots of people think that Meat's stuff sound the same... the 'heard it all before' mentality (sp?) so don't bother listening. With Testify not many none meat fans know it's him and are shocked.
You hit the nail on the head with the word 'promotion'... It's a shame the Lable know nothing about it. ;)

I realise that my "How big a fan are you" question was a bit dodgy! :oops: I didn't mean to call your "fandom" into question or offend you - I apologise for having a useless way with words! :oops: :roll:
It seems that only time will tell with regards to the release of MoS. Lets hope it DOES do well then.
I'm glad that at least I've prompted others to revisit their singles & listen to Decadent Wish again. :wink:
Winston, My point with "comparing" Meat with Wetlife ( :D ) is that Westlife just release ballads & they do well - mainly due to their boybandness, so in theory Meat should also do well by releasing far superior material, although as you say they are both aimed at different markets. Also, have you seen the Celebrity Deathmatch that featured Meat?

Its an MTV animation programme where clay representations of Celebrities fight it out to the Death in a comical fashion. Its very OTT & funny but usually on quite late on MTV 2. They made Meat' lose though :( - Can't remember who the opponent was though.

Meat's opponent was Korn :) But I won't tell you what he did to Meat .. :lol:
