Question Top 20 Meatloaf songs?

So i was chatting to my mate about the top 10 Meat songs of all time, so we started writing down a list. It then quickly turned into a top 20 list because there were too many good songs!

So in no particular order, these were the songs i chose for my top 20:

BAT OUT OF HELL
THE MONSTERS LOOSE
BAD FOR GOOD
ANYTHING FOR LOVE
OUT OF THE FRYING PAN
OBJECTS IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR
LIFE IS A LEMON
FOR CRYING OUT LOUD
DEAD RINGER FOR LOVE
ROCK AND ROLL DREAMS
NOT A DRY EYE
I’D LIE FOR YOU
HEAVEN CAN WAIT
TWO OUT OF THREE AIN’T BAD
YOU TOOK THE WORDS
EVERYTHING LOUDER
NOWHERE FAST
MODERN GIRL
BLIND AS A BAT
MONSTERO/ALIVE

Now the hard part of putting them in order!

Was really hard, so many great songs, nearly put others in like jumpin the gun, runnin for the red light, man of steel, peel out

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

cant say it right now, there are many great songs, but great in different ways so it´s hard to put them in order.
For example ELTEE is a song I really like maybe more than FCOL, but on the other hand FCOL is musicwise maybe one of the best written songs ever.

Question

Glad to see so many people are taking part in this thread.

However I think there are some songs that really don't belong in a top 20 of Meatloaf songs.

I can't believe that songs like it just won't quit, read em and weep, love you out loud, left in the dark, i'll kill you if you don't come back, peice of the action, where the rubber meets the road, jumpin the gun, bad attitude, mercury blues, and testify have made it into some peoples top 20! I mean they're all good songs but surely they don't make it into a top 20.

Thats quite stupid of you to say considering its personal taste. As you stated their good songs. What gives you the right to say that we shouldn't have them as our favourite?

Also could you spell the guys name right please. Meat Loaf, if your trying to make an argument about what the mans best suff is at least have the simple things right please.

I will fight to my last breath for robgomm to express his opinion - even though he is so embarrassingly wrong!!!!

Lol I was hoping i'd get some reaction to what I said, makes for an interesting debate.

However I was talking to my Meat Loaf mad best mate and he was agreeing with what I said. I mean honestly, Testify in a top 20 beggers belief.

You're all entitled to your opinions though.

Everyone has diffrent tastes and dosen't it show how outstanding and consistant the big man has been that so many people pick a wide variety of song's from different albums and era.
Has there been anyone better over that length of time?
