Default Total Eclipse: The Music of Jim Steinman

So people 14 Jim Steinman songs are being performed twice in NYC tonight. I'd love to watch the videos if anyone gets access :)

Theres a rumour that some of the songs may feature on the BTWA album and Ellen & Karla are performing together live for the very 1st time!

Can't wait so see that one!

I believe that Jim attended the 2006 shows as well.

I hope that they are similar. IMO besides Tanz the 2006 shows were the greatest performance of Jim material by anyone, ever.

I find it somewhat funny that they didn't change the lyrics to make them more male centric. It's kind of unusual hearing a guy sing "You'll always be the boy..." and "I'm lying like a child in your arms..."

I suppose he could be gay, but regardless I still found it kind of funny

There is a broadway review with pics up as well. No setlist as of yet but that is coming.
This was a one off thing.
Sounds like it went over very well

Set List

It's all coming back to me now
The Future Aint what it used to be
Making Love Outta Nothing at All
Holding out for a hero
Anything for love (Featuring Ellen Foley)
Paradise
Objects in the Rear view Mirror
Safe Sex
Two outta Three Ain't Bad
Bat Out of Hell
What Part of my Body Hurts the Most
Heaven Can Wait
Total Eclipse of the Heart
Lost Boys and Golden Girls (Karla DeVito)
Rock and Roll Dreams Come through (Karla DeVito)

Basically the best Jim Steinman songs apart from For Crying Out Loud and More than you Deserve together in a concert. What a gig this must have been!

Would have been a great outing if living near there but to be honest other than What Part of My Body all these songs have been released before and sung better by the original singers in my opinion. I sure hope there will be more Steinman news this year other than just this.

I could go on. If they were put all the best Jim songs into one show it would be a 4-5 hour concert.

Sounds like a good night! Despite rigorous googling I can't find any reviews or videos any links?

Just search 54 below on Youtube :)

Seen the photos on broadway world now. Ellen looks awesome! Karla looks like she would have a wicked sense of humour too.

I saw one of some guy doing a wretched version of TEOTH. I was hoping to see at least some clips featuring Ellen and Karla.

Total Eclipse 5/5/15
I hope it sounded better in person b/c this is not as good as I would have expected.

Jimmy doesn't look too happy, hopefully he was feeling good and got to enjoy the show. Maybe just a bad pic, and heck it's not like you need to smile to enjoy it, I just wonder about how he was feeling...Wishing him all the health! Glad to see him rockin' out with his designer clothes, he has a very cool design sense. (Except for the glasses! :P)

On a scale between West Life and Bonnie Tyler I think Jeremy did a pretty fine job of Total Eclipse of the Heart. I can't wait to see the whole concert!
