Personally I love the fact that Meat finally dropped the F-bomb in a song but it's the song it's self I don't like.

Musically it works? Pizazz? is the lamest excuse ever to go beyond the acceptable boundaries of what we've come to expect from Meat Loaf lyics. I absolutely don't have any problem with singers swearing and telling about girls who ~~~~ you but don't give me this crap. I expect this from Eminem. I don't expect this from Meat Loaf. It's downright embarrassing in my opinion. In my opinion Meat Loaf surrounded himself with the wrong song writers for this one. He doesn't need to resort to those kind of lyrics to make his music work. If he keeps doing that I'm off for sure. Meat Loaf used to offer a "safe" rock n roll environment, with indeed sexual innuendoes all over the place but not songs about girls ~~~~ing you and how big your dick is. Take those innuendoes out and change lyric style to be more direct and different is bound to alienate fans. The innuendoes I find clever and often poetic, the ~~~~ing and dicks I find rather dumb.

In my opinion it was an unnecessary attempt to shock.

[Elijah's way]

I don't understand why people are so offended by it!! if you don't like the cussing or in my case the song it's self just skip the damn thing and move on. and if you cuss but it's wrong for Meat to do so in a harmless song than you are very much contradicting yourself. I guess it takes an open mind to accept his new style and the cussing in the songs, and I'm sure by saying this I'll probably offend someone "sorry if it does" I'm not changing the way I think about this situation. and to say you're going to stop being a fan if he keeps recording songs with cussing in them is absolutely ludicrous!! I guess he should play it safe to keep a few fans happy

the rant is over now I can be ripped to shreds and laugh about it later.

It's not the first time Meat has sworn in a song. How about the line "you can shove it up your arse" in Lemon? You really need to lighten up and not take it all so seriously. It's no big deal.

That's the trouble, everybody can say (or write) "fück" and "dick". It's nothing special, it's almost as uninspired and lazy as using a lot of "lalala" and "nanana" for lyrics.

Gone wayyyyyyy off topic again

Think there's nothing more to add to the Leno topic now
