Hello Everyone!*

Gracie · 28 Jan 2007, 13:08

Hello everyone,

Some of you may remember me other's may not. I have been seriously ill in Hospital and nealry died...I am now hopefully onto better health and a better 2007 than last year 2006....Can only get better 'eh!

I have to have another operation June time and thought why not do some things I may never have done before one of them is to come back on here.

I was always worried about Internet forums but, reading you guys posts you seem like a nice bunch.

I am at college and I am learning all about computers!
I write song lyrics and without telling a lie or boasting I am too laid back. People have compared them to Jim Steinman how ace is that!

So, anyway, I hope to chat to about all things Meat Loaf. I used to post on Rockman Record But, I am not sure aboutt hat board anymore>You giys are really nice!!

Here's a song that people have very cool said sounds very Steinman like! What a compliment if you like my song it would be so nice to hear from you, I do hope you don't mind me posting a song it's just tradition for me to do so on this forum.BTW!

Lol! Hope to speak lots.

Have a lovely Sunday and please Message me back would like to hear from you!

Grace xx

CAN'T WAIT FOR BOOH The Musical>

Seize the night!

Don’t Let It Break Your Heart
Lyrics by Grace Shackleton

All of the prophecies
The cold war on your tongue
Bullets rip the sky open
Beware of anything graceful
Any end to any of this at all?
One by one they fall

Shining like black dogs in the night
Over the Valleys
Over bridges
Over roads
Make anything but war
Walk on the streets of salvation
How do I get through?
Get through to you?

(Chorus :)
Don’t let it break your heart
Sing a song
It’s only begun
Don’t let it break your heart
Torn apart
Clinging to lost memories
Like ghosts

We don’t need no tears
Because we all know how to breakdown
It’s all down to salvation

There’s some kind of Heaven
Around
Even when you can’t stand your ground
Or in that half light you’ve found

(Chorus :)
Don’t let it break your heart
Sing a song
It’s only begun
Don’t let it break your heart
Torn apart
Clinging to lost memories
Like ghosts

There’s some kind of Heaven
Around
Even when you can’t stand your ground
Or in that half light you’ve found

MeatGrl1 · 28 Jan 2007, 14:26

Welcome back Grace,
Wow, what news to break I am sorry to hear that and I hope the operation is a success.
These are wonderful lyrics, you have a real gift here I think.

Keep Rockin'

And all the best

XxX

clpmss · 28 Jan 2007, 15:39

Wonderful to have you back Grace. Hope to see you in chat.

Gracie · 28 Jan 2007, 15:40

Hey everyone,

Aww...Thank you, that's very kind of you. Nice to be back, and, on all accounts I think Myself and Jim are lucky to be here! Makes you realise everyday counts.

What does everyone think of Bat 3 I Love it, I think it has a bit of everything Jim and the other songwriters!

I am listening to it now, and, doing some college work!

Thanks for your kind words, over my song. Means alot!

Thank you, and I hope you are keeping well. Isn't it cold today?! Brr

Grace xx

Forget the past, cause you can't get it back, these are the times, so, live out loud.

clpmss · 28 Jan 2007, 15:42

Need help with computer work, just ask.

Chris

Gracie · 28 Jan 2007, 15:51

I take it your into computers. I Love computers fab things, but, when they go wrong it's so, annoying Lol! BTW!

It's a nice forum this isn't it not too much trouble ever goes in here does it?

I can see that we all Love Bat 3 the twenty year wait was finally over in about 5 mins the other week in Tesco, my dad bought me the album it Rocks!!

Thank you,

Grace xx

clpmss · 28 Jan 2007, 16:01

It's ok here. Need any help just PM me the questions.

Love anything that Meat sings.

Gracie · 28 Jan 2007, 16:24

One thing, does Meat Loaf actually ever post on here?

Is he really Fireball?!

That's so cool. Hello Meat! If you are reading any of this. I Loved Bat 3 are you playing in Birmingham>even though I should really already know this. But, BIG thumbs up to you and Jim and Desmond Child for Bat 3!

Meat Loaf You are the best,

Thank you,

Message me back anyone Love to hear from you,

Grace xx

everything Louder than everything else!

MeatGrl1 · 28 Jan 2007, 17:54

Meat Loaf is Fire Ball.

He is staying away from here though, I don't know if he plans on returning but he has posted lots in the past.

Bren · 28 Jan 2007, 21:47

Hi Grace, good to see you back here

Benny · 29 Jan 2007, 14:18

Welcome back Grace

Gracie · 30 Jan 2007, 15:00

Thank you, very much, good news I have been totally discharged from the hospital now! I was so relieved I cried. I have been so poorley and really lucky to be here. What do you all make of Bat3 I think even though it's not all Steinman epic songs, I still believe it's a good album. People on the Rockman record don't seem to realise that yes, Meat can still sing but the best work they do together is together. No one can sing a Steinman song like Meat, and, no one can write a song like Jim.

What's with alot of fans disliking Meat for? It seems such a shame when the one person that broguht Jim's music to life is Meat Loaf!

Am I wrong?

The beat is your forever! And, never ever stop ROCKING!!!
Please, message me back.

Grace xx

Good to see you back safe and well, Grace!

Blackkat13 · 31 Jan 2007, 03:22

Yeah ML hasn't been on since December 11, I remember cause it was my mom's b-day. Still don't don't know why he has a bug up his ummm...can't say it. I liked your lyrics Grace Pretty cool. I use to write poetry back when I was in school. I also agree love computers but hate it when they mess up. Hope your operation goes well and your answer is why do people not like ML? Well in the case of Bat 3 is that it isn't a BOOH album cause it is not all Jim's music they brought in other people to write. It could be the thing about Patti Russo quiting. I Don't know really seen those two mostly on the net.....I could be wrong or very wrong

Leah · 31 Jan 2007, 10:11

Hey Grace
How are you doing? I'm pleased to hear you've been discharged from hospital, thats great news

I like your lyrics. I can see where you got your inspiration from, keep up the good work with it x
I too write lyrics/poetry/songs. If you fancy taking a look at me and my band and listening to a couple of songs i've written please visit; www.myspace.com/themayflowers
It would be nice to know what you think.

Wishing you all the best Grace for the future
Keep in touch
Take Care

Gracie · 03 Feb 2007, 16:19

Hello everyone, been back to college and getting back to 'er normality!! THANK YOU FOR your kind comments and replying to my thread!

xx

People have said who are Meat Loaf fans said ''I can actually hear Meat Loaf singing this'' and after re-reading it and arranging it again, I kind of knew what they were on about!!''-Cool huh?!

here's another song see what you think hope you don't mind me posting it.

Basically I would Love to see what you think. I am not pushy if anything completley laid back and always sat at the back never asking, but, in my heart people have said they are so Jim like I'd you guys to be the judge of that. Because lets face it you will know!

Really like to know!

I have always lacked in confidence due to my illness and now i guess getting it back slowly*

BTW hope you don't mind again me asking!

Thank you,
Grace xx

+Show Me Heaven+
Lyrics By Grace Shackleton

Show Me Heaven
Lyrics By Grace Shackleton

Show me heaven
Cos wev'e seen enough of hell
Lord, let it rain down
Rain on me
Show Me Heaven
We all must lean from this

(Chorus :)

Show me heaven
Cos wev'e seen enough of hell
Rain coming down
Doesn’t matter
The way I feel right now
There must be some kind of heaven
Even when you can’t see the half light that you’ve
Found
Or stand your ground

Some kind of heaven
You kept me strong
When I thought all might be gone
Keep strong for all those you treasure
I’m there for you
Always

Demons can drag you down
If you let them

I’ve learned don’t let time pass you by
Don’t waste time and stand out in a crowd
Don’t cry when there’s nothing to be sad about
Demons can drag you down
If you let them

(Chorus :)

Show me heaven
Rain coming down
Doesn’t matter
The way I feel right now
There must be some kind of heaven
Even when you can’t see the half light that you’ve
Found
Or stand your ground
Show me heaven
For the damned
Burn a tourch for your sons and daughters
Let it shine
Through the night
Tears were never wasted on the young
Show me heaven
Tears were never wasted on the young

Burn a tourch
Let it shine
Through the night
Tears were never wasted on the young
Show me heaven
Tears were never wasted on the young

Grace xx

Its good to back!
