If you could get Meat to sing any song what would it be? - Page 6

scotty · 09 Jul 2006, 14:21

Piano Man - Billy Joel
November Rain - Guns N Roses
Who wants to live forever - Queen

I think these would be a good start to a covers album!

Foolish Beat - Debbie Gibson..

You know it hit me the other day:

Given how Bat 3 has turned out with Meat and team picking some of Steinman's older songs to cover instead of it being all new-uns, after Bat 3's released Meat really will have done an awful lot of Steinman's back catalogue. What with Bad for Good and IACBTMN added to the list there aren't that many high profile Jim songs Meat hasn't done.

Of all the various notable studio projects by Jim up until now, it's really only Making Love out of Nothing At All, Tonight is What It Means to be Young, Dance in my Pants, Safe Sex and the Bonnie Tyler stuff that Meat hasn't recorded.

That's, what, about 10(ish) songs? (I figure there isn't enough room for Stark Raving Love AND Holding out For A Hero given the recycled bits, and Meat's reported disliking of Stark Raving Love).

That's really not that many at all! No wonder there's an overwhelming public perception that where there's Meat there's jim and vice versa, despite their prolonged periods of time apart and their considerable success without each other.

So now, ladies and gentlement, I'd like to unveil my idea of "Meat Loaf: the classic 1980s Steinman Songbook", released 2008

Bohemian · 14 Jul 2006, 09:16

but more in the spirit of the idea of the thread...

I'm not hanging out to hear it but now that you mention it it'd be cool for Meat to do Alice Cooper's 'Hey Stoopid'. I think content wise it's right up Meat's alley.

he could do it with Desmond Child to great effect I think. They could even get Steve Vai to play on it like the original.

Oh wait, maybe it was Satriani that played on the original... they both played on the album but now I can't remember. Meh. You get the picture.

B.

EDIT: My memory has drudged up enough to remember, with 93.7% certainty, that it is actually Satriani that plays on the track Hey Stoopid.

Meat sing bon jovi - I'll Sleep When I'm Dead i love the bon jovi version but meats voice is more powerful so idlove that one and at the other end of the spectrum- wind beneath my wings-bette midler- sure he could do it mite ruin his rep tho...

**RadioMaster** · 28 Jul 2006, 19:46

I´m still amazed by Seize the Night, I wonder if they´ll keep the Back into Hell part in it, probably not. It´d be great if it was chaged to a little part of the TMIL melody. Back into hell is like a leitmotif of Bat2 (-> Good Girls), so TMIL could be for Bat3

JanT · 28 Jul 2006, 19:48

Think Twice I think would be a good one.

Blimey I'll need therapy to remove that thought

Anyhoo, I think Meat would suit some Trans-Siberian Orchestra stuff

Well, I don't think we have too long to wait to find out... perhaps Marion Raven will?

Chris DeBurgh did a great song (hard to believe I know) called "Making The Perfect Man" - I reckon Meat could do a superb version of this.

Toolster · 06 Oct 2006, 14:29

For me I would like to hear him sing Goodbye my lover by James Blunt, I think Meats voice would sound awsome on this track

**RadioMaster** · 06 Oct 2006, 20:26

what came to my mind when I saw this thread again was Everyday by Bon Jovi.
