Although I'd like to see a full Steinman album I think that if he doesn't have the time/energy or whatever to oversee all the production it wouldn't really matter. On Bat 3 we got loads of Steinman songs all produced by Desmond Child. I feel that that part of the album is actually quite sub par and hasn't aged well at all, not like the previous Steinman stuff on Bat 1 and Bat 2. (I actually do like the Desmond Child related songs themselves and find those much more interesting / better produced!). It feels like they scraped the bottom of the barrel, just to get the Steinman name on there. I think Bat 3 would have sounded better with only Bad for Good (more piano though and God Speed back in there), a better produced Seize The Night and a better produced Cry to Heaven, whilst leaving the other Steinman songs off whilst keeping all the Child stuff (maybe without If God and Cry over Me!). But then of course calling it "The Monster is Loose" only and leaving off the "songs by" title on the front (such sad details are important to me).
My point is just throwing all the remaining Steinman demos on there probably won't work.
Some people even want to hear "Total Eclipse" and "making love" rehashed!



(Hey turn around Meat, you little bright eyed guy you.

and for a man singing the making love line sounds a little bit creepy somehow - having said that some of the lyrics are genius and would work for Meat "I can make all the stadiums rock")
I am hoping for some new songs, even if there are only two and hopefully "What Part of My Body Hurts The Most" on there as I do think it was written especially for Meat. Other than that I hope it's as good as "Welcome to the neighbourhood". Something like that. I'd be happy.
