Default Meat Loaf's favorite songs of Meat Loaf..

We all have our own favorite Meat songs but is there anyone who knows what his own choices where/are? regarding his own songs. If possible for each album.

I do know of FCOL and IJWQ...

I know he really digged Los Angeloser. He often professed how much he liked Frying Pan, but I'm not sure if it was a favorite song like FCOL, or just one he really liked performing.

At a talk in London a few years ago he mentioned his favourites as "For Crying Out Loud", "Forever Young", and "Fallen Angel".

I do remember in a paper interview he commented he hated Anything for love, mainly because it was so hard to sing live!

I believe it was because he couldn't find the 'character' to sing it.

It's true! Whether or not he meant it is a different matter....
When somebody reminded him that was on the 'Midnight at the Lost and Found' album he did say 'No, it can't have been. Nothing on that was any good'.
He could have been thinking of something else ('Where Angels Sing', perhaps?), but I also thought I'd heard him mention 'Fallen Angel' on another occasion... and funnily enough it made the list on some website recently of most underappreciated ML songs -

I'd go as far as to say 'unknown'! It always surprised me when I'd be at concerts and anything beyond 'Bat Out of Hell' and 'Anything for Love' stumped the people around me. You've paid £70 for tickets to see someone and you don't even know their music?!?
