thought it was the opening bit of Jim's DOTV vision that was replaced by the Storm (or parts of it)?

"God Has Left the Building" - as a song title anyway - has existed since 1994, which is the copyright date on a list of songs someone (I believe it was Pud) found for a screenplay called "Bat Out of Hell 2100" credited to Jim featuring this title. Meat Loaf also mentions this song in the last chapter of his autobiography as one Jim had slated for the project that became WTTN instead of Bat III.

It's debatable, in my opinion at least, as to whether or not the instrumental featured in DOTV is the same as the song on that list, as another version featuring lyrics and un-vampire-related is rumored to exist.

It's quite unlikely I'd say, as the DOTV version is cut together out of old bits and pieces from all over the years, just like Back into Hell

Not me, vivid memories of houdning my local record store when I was a student checking if PB had been released yet ...

I actually got my copy in Germany, a Detmold music shop back in 1992

I may sound like a novice here, but i've never heard of some of these songs. I thought I had all the Steinman stuff (Bad for Good, Pandora's Box, Whistle Down the Wind, Streets on Fire), but I have no idea about Rebel Without A Clue, What Part Of My Body Hurts The Most?, Not Allowed To Love and a few others. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

The first 6 songs were all recorded by Bonnie Tyler. You can probably find a compilation album with them all on.

Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young was on the soundtrack to the film Streets Of Fire and was recorded by Fire Inc. It was then reworked into Dance Of The Vampires for the musical Tanz Der Vampire.

Braver Than We Are is again from Tanz.

What Part Of My Body, Not Allowed To Love and Still The Children were from the aborted Batman musical I think.

I don't know about "What Part of My Body," but Jim has explicitly stated the other two were part of Batman.

Pudding · 16 Jun 2009, 00:56

He explicitly stated...well there you go.

Evil One · 16 Jun 2009, 00:59

So he had his trousers down while making the claim?

WhenItComes2LovingU · 16 Jun 2009, 04:03

You guys do scrape the bottom of the barrel to critique me, don't you? No, wait, scratch that, you'll have a line about not having to scrape very far.

Pudding · 16 Jun 2009, 04:27

Well since you live at the bottom of a barrel what do you expect
