I totally respected him too ... like he said, it was all for the kids

snider22 · 23 May 2009, 15:14

I to agree with his decision to stop at 500,000, props for that. I think both Meat and Pearl sounded great, good show.

I think from that clip it was pretty obvious Meat used what he had, not a great singer as such, anymore but a great performer (i include the running round and overacting) and Pearl used what she has which is the potential to be a really great singer.

Fair play to them

Pudding · 24 May 2009, 05:24

Pearl singing Piece Of My Heart has to be the highlight for me, carrying on singing even after getting the lyrics was awesome.

They should have gone for the $1Million, especially with a guarantee of $100,000

I am not very strong in math but somehow $500,000 sounds a whole lot more to me than $100,000.-...especially with two people who didn't do that great and used up all their lifelines...never forgetting the fact that they were not gambling with their own money...

Pudding · 24 May 2009, 10:46

To quote some muppet from THIS post ...People are entitled to their opinion though... I believe I gave my opinion.

Had Meat wanted a guarantee sum of money then he'd have taken the $25,000 offered at the start of the show and walked, but he didn't, he gambled up to $500,000 and both he and Pearl did very well. Am I the only person who believe in Meat & Pearl enough to think he could have gone all the way? F*ck me, there's a surprise

I haven't seen the episode yet, but assuming it's a simalar prize money system as Who Wants To Be A Millionaire (it sounds like it) perhaps Meat was willing to financially cover himself too a point if he made a rash feck up.

If I was a star, I had the money in the bank, and I was doing something like this for charadee, i'd be terrified of betting with that charaties money.And if I did a monumental feck up i'd want to see the charity OK out of my own pocket so then don't lose out because I was overconfident and lost the lot.

Meat might have been willing to stump up the $25K if it all went wrong to save face and not let the charity down, but would he want to stump up half a million to cover his losses?

If it was for himself, sure he could and should have gone for it, but you can't play around with someone else's money like that.

I loved the show: Meat was Meat, and Pearl was unbelievable. They both did themselves very proud.

I'm glad Meat stopped at $500,000; you can't beat that, and as he said it was for the kids, and that amount is nothing to sneeze at. But I could also feel how torn he was to not go for the $1 million. And I can understand him not wanting to take a chance, and losing $400,000 if they couldn't get the $1 million clue. In the bad economy we are in the middle of, every buck counts now, especially for a non-profit; they are suffering terribly, including non-profits who aid people in need, and help people with special needs, like Painted Turtle. Pud, I don't disagree with you in principle, but I definitely understand and support Meat in his taking what he had won for the charity.

just wayne even said "a number one hit' for the million dollar one. Imagine if it was AFL. LMAO that would suk

bobbin · 25 May 2009, 08:25

that wouldve been stupid lol and the few celebs who did go for it didnt have their songs for million dollor one so while i think between the two of them they must know enough music to do it, what they did win was a a hell of alot compared to many other stars. Somehow i dont think they kids are gonna criticise them for stopping.

Pudding · 25 May 2009, 10:05

Do you have a spell-checker?

That was exactly my point...NOBODY yet won a million on that show...must have been a good reason...

That's no recommendation

Nobody has won the $1million prize because no one has been given the guarantee of $100,000 if they went for it.

I still find it odd that me of all people seems to be the only one who has the absolute faith in the ability of Meat Loaf and Pearl to win the top prize

I've just seen it (thanks to Jayd

) a few days ago.
I have to say this is the best tv programme I've seen him doing probably since AI in 06. Here he could really show off what he is: a singer and an entertainer. Appearances in childrens shows and republican political talk shows are good to keep him in the public focus, but dont really do anything for his image as an artist. (they even make him look dated in some way)
This show did, in a great way.

Another thing that might be underestimated:
This was probably the biggest appearance for Pearl as an artist in her own right (sort of) on tv. I can imagine quite a number of people will now be checking her music out, especially after her rendition of Piece of my Heart. Well done Pearl!

PS: Didnt she drop the band name 'Mother Pearl' years ago?

PPS: do we have any info on the ratings of the show?
