A Bit Of Meat Loaf...

Yes, I admit it... in fact, I'm proud of it... It's time to come out of the closet....

I am a humungous Meat Loaf fan!

I love his voice... I love the songs (God bless Jim Steinman... you write beautiful songs)... "Bat Out Of Hell" was the first album I bought on CD, and I love it more now than I did way back then...

So every so often you'll get a slice or two of Meat Loaf - starting with probably my favourite... "For Crying Out Loud"...

And "Two Out Three Ain't Bad"...

For you youngsters reading this who haven't heard "Bat Out Of Hell", I urge you... go buy it... It's simply a fantastic album. You can read all about it here... facts like it's still selling some 200,000 copies a year! And it spent an unbelievable 474 weeks on the UK album charts... that's around about 9 years! Can you really see an Arctic Monkeys' album hanging around THAT long on the charts? I don't think so!

What? I'm ranting? Oh.... erm... okay. *blush*
