As much as im intersted in the number of albums everybody got, we should start another thread with that.
To me, it looks like you´re all doing one big mistake, I´ve done too, when I heard Jims songs first:
You compare them to Meat!
If we´re talking about the quality of the voice and the emotions in it, sure Meat has to win, but you have to hear BfG as an own album song by an own artist and not like a Meat Loaf tribute cd.
You cant judge the album from the point of pathos, you can just jugde the album itself.
The best example IMO is frying pan, I like Meat´s version and I like Jim´s version, but I like it...different. I see it from another point like "just" a sing-beside-doing-something-else-song.
I hope you get what I mean.
