If You Really Want To closely followed by Life Is A Lemon

Pud :twisted:

martha closely followed by oh what a beautifull morning.

Execution day, Man and a Woman. Hate both of those

Man N Woman, Leader of the People - popcorn Blizzard

Jeez, give it a rest, who cares?

Leader of the people was stoney and meatloaf

Blizzard did hello and once apon a time

Had a Brain Freeze Called A Shamerock Shake

in that case its fully understandable

one more!
 

Bad for Good it just is not good for me sorry!

Holy crap :shit: over two years between posts on this thread :shock:

Pud :twisted:

I dont think that Meat's BFG is entirely bad....granted, it's not as good as Jim but it's hardly his worst song ever...

That prize has to go to Fiesta de las whatsitcalled? or maybe Cry to Heaven...

Martha, i really do not like this song!

I think Martha is one of the best ballads he has recorded:

Its weird isn't how we all have different perspectives and choices.
The other one i realy don't like is Razors Edge.

Noooooo!!!! Thats one of my top 5! The riff is sooooo great!

Didn't I do a thread on this before? Oh well....

the worst Meat songs of all (A Man and A Woman used to be on here, but that song aint that bad to me anymore):

1. Blind as a Bat
2. Fallen Angel
3. If God Could Talk
4. The Monster Is Loose
5. Cry To Heaven

I love BAAB,TMIL, FA and IGCT, but don't like CTH at all, MY godson sings CTH beautifully, but i still don't like it;)LOL..
I also don't like If You Really Want To.

Martha and Do It ! stick out for me, I really can't stand these songs !!!

Jeez woman, Martha is an excellent song (orginally recorded by tome waits - closing time cd)


Mine I dont like one bit is Bad for good, he's just rehashed it (it sounded better in 1988 live), when his voice was stronger

Sorry Markham but I really don't like that song and often skip it !

Agreed. its very repetitive. Though i do fancy "Do It!", a real rocker. Though I still dont understand a word He's saying even though I have read the lyrics.....

i don´t like do it and break it. but martha is a lovely song.

I think there's a few poor ones, mostly from Midnight, BBIS and CHSIB.
There's also a few dodgy B-sides around.

Cry to heaven on a par with why isn't that enough! Both have crap lyrics and music. Oh and i love Martha would have loved to have heard it live.

IE: R.P.M :roll:

My cousin had the privilege to hear it live on the Storytellers tour.

Take a Number :p

Guess I was the only one the forum for the longest time with those lyrics in my sig...... :shock:

Worst song for me is "Do it"

Just cant get the lyrics

Yeah agree - Do It - Cannot understand what the reasoning for this song could have been, the CHSIB album is great and I really like it, but Do It just seems to have been an after thought or something.

I belive Meat always has to have a "Rocker" like he said in an interview about Lemon with Bat 2. He's done that since Bat 2 with every album (WTTN's was Redlight and Bat 3's was Brake It). Do It is CHSIB's.

Based on the songs I skip when listening to an album then i'm sorry to say that Future from Bat III would be on the list :( I adore this song and Meat's voice is wonderful on it, but it's ruined as soon as the female vocals come in, completely ruined the song for me

I really like TFAWIUTB, but i love Jennifers voice, hubby is not keen on this track for the reasons you said Luce.

I was gutted when I heard it, it starts so perfectly then just goes totally downhill for me :( I honestly think the best version of TFAWIUTB is the Wuthering Heights version (someone correct me if that's not the one I'm thinking of!)

I agree, when Ms Hudson starts singing it rather sounds like she's sitting on the toilet than singing a sad ballad ...

That said I'm not a fan of the overall song either, I much prefer the Pan Box version, already because of the amazing, epic intro.
Meat's version to me sounds, like most of the Bat3/Steinman stuff, like a cheap, mainstream rip-off of the original version. :(

yeah I kinda get to the end of bat 3 and have no real inclination to listen to the versions of cry to heaven and the future...i meat's version is probably ten years too late

That's hilarious. Now whenever I hear that song I'll always have that image in my head.:lol: I really like the song but I'm not a fan of the duet with JH either.

I agree but with this said...Jennifer Hudson does have an amazing voice which is actually not even recognizable in this duet...I don't know what went wrong there...to me it seems like production or something...

What puts the icing on the cake is they omit stuff from the originals (Like in IACBTMN a couple verses are cut) and I never heard PB's version of Future but I bet its longer.....

I think part of the problem is that The Future and IACBTMN are better as solo songs and not duets. WAL was written to be a duet and it works well. Plus Patti and Meat not only have chemistry on stage but their vocals have a good chemistry. Their voices blend together into one powerful voice. Marion's and Jennifer's voices didn't blend well with Meat's, imo.

I might be out of my mind...which possibly is the case...but I somehow remember that Future was sung by Dream Engine as a group too...if somebody can correct me on this - please do...I am growing senile...I actually don't know if I've heard it as solo...

I think The Future actually is a group song but I don't like the duet it was made into...if you know what I mean...there are duets and then there are duets...

I know I will be quartered for this...but the more I've listened to WAL, the less I liked it...now if I listen to that album I just skip it completely...with this said...I do think that Patti's voice is very suitable for duets with Meat...

I've never heard The Future sung by the Dream Engine, but I think it would sound better as a group song than a duet. The solo versions I've heard are by Patti and also the Wuthering Heights version. Both were very good. I like the song WAL but I think it would have been an even better song performed live. Like I thought CHSIB was even greater performed live.

welcome to the dark side :twisted:

???

... We have cookies :yep:

Blind before I Stop has some real great songs. Most all of the songs from Bat 3 really suck.

future is one of the best songs on the album in my opinion

I thougth this topic is about worst songs? ;-)

Well, I think Future together with Cry to heaven are the worst songs I have ever heard from the Loaf. They are terrible.

worse than special girl, man and a woman, never be too sure about the girl, etc, etc etc?
Okay, cry to heaven maybe ;)

my point is, you might not think bat3 is great (me neither), but you still have to see it in perspective and dont damn every single song as the worst ever.

I like special Girl. It is a nice song. The production is rather soft, but it is better by far than the production/arrangements on Future and Cry to heaven

peal out terrible song:roll:

:shock: - thats a hit below the belt lol

Special Girl, If you really want to, Priscilla are the ones i usually skip. Also Lemon if i'm feeling delicate!

Lemon and Monster Is Loose are great songs to listen to if you're really pissed off with the world.

Carole

Really? when I'm PO'ed i go for "Everything Under the Sun"

you poo'd yourself?

man and a woman:roll:

Went again through the entire thread...and it's definitely The Wolf At The Door and I think, it's his song...

Aawww that song is pretty good. not great but good.

Worst song ever must be FCOL. I mean its too flat.

You are going to get so flamed for that one ...

Oh no, I love that song, Meat sings it so beautifully, especially on the MSO DVD.

Carole

So are you honestly saying that you think If God Could Talk is better than For Crying Out Loud?

:faint::shock::shock::shock::yikes::yikes::yikes:
Worst song ever must be FCOL. I mean its too flat.[/QUOTE]


Maybe it's because you're so young Wario! I can't listen to that song without having a mini nervous breakdown because of the power of it!:-)

Says the kid who rates Masculine as one of his favs lol

Yeah, it's not that much of a shocking statement when you compare others he's made.

Masculine Kicks ass :D

and I was joking lmao

FCOL is terrific

Wanted ta see the reactions

Gullible? Moi??:lol:

For me my least favourites are;
Surf's Up
Do It !
Martha and
Thrashin'

Not very keen on either of those.

Didn't I start a thread just like this 4 years ago? :?

Yes I think we need to have a merge.. Mods ??

4 years ago bat 3 wasnt even out

Whats that got to do with anything? RHStoned isn't lying http://www.mlukfc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5839

I know that, I mean Bat 3 wasnt out then to put the shit-ass songs from it on the worst list :D

So a new thread of shit songs started, no doubt there'll be an even newer thread of shittest songs when the new album comes out...LOL

totally, especially if adam lambert is doing a duet with meat from what someone at school suggested XD

Worst Meat loaf Song Ever
 

I personaly like all of meat loafs songs but there is one thing i didnt get at all and that is nocturnal pleasure from the dead ringer album. from lisa01

I've never liked Life is a Lemon, and wouldn't mind if I never heard it again. It always reminds me of a moaning Meat Loaf, and to me, he doesn't sound like a moaner. luv cx

Priscilla, that one is awful.
:D

:twisted: Threads merged by popular demand.

Thanks, Neil :up: :cool:.

Agree :up:

Priscilla

New Dislikes:

1. I'd Do Anything For Love
2. Martha
3. The Monster is loose
4. If God Could Talk
5. Everything Under The Sun
6. The Entire MATL&F album except Priscilla, PL, and the title track
7. Cry Over Me
8. Cry To Heaven
9. You Were Right I Was Wrong
10. Whore

"Why isn't That Enough?" has grown on me immensely over the year I last posted here. IMO its not a rip of 2/3, its a homage much like the reference to Revved up in "cant be to sure about the girl' and BFG in "BAAB".

"Blind as a Bat" has also caught on.

You don't like AFL. You're crazy.

I'd have to agree with that.

At last, something that we don't need a poll to decide ... :twisted:

My new least favorite song by Meat is Boneyard, what a crap song.

if this is the last kiss

Masculine

Do It

I've never really taken to Razor's Edge.

I'm not saying it's a bad song but it's a song that doesn't make me stop and listen like so many other Meat Loaf songs do.

Cry to Heaven

Standing on the outside
Burning Down

Let's be in love wouldn't exactly be the worst Meat Loaf song for me, but i don't think it's a good duet and not as good vocally compared to the rest of the album

=O Never thought about my least favorite ML songs, there's just so many mind-blowingly amazing ones that mean so much to me that I've never really considered to be any I don't like. If I have to -

Nowhere Fast
Surfs Up
Left in the Dark
The Future Just Ain't What It Used To Be
Burning Down
Man and a Woman
Special Girl
All of MATLAF with the exception of Razor's Edge and If You Really Want To
Martha
Fiesta de la whatever it is from WTTN
45 seconds of Ecstasy
Tear Me Down

I feel I need to explain myself, considering how big my list is =( The four Steinman songs at the top are there (particularly Nowhere Fast) because IMO, they were butchered. Completely and utterly murdered to fit into an album with far inferior songs. Nowhere Fast, one of my favorite Steinsongs, is simply horrible (Meat's version). It just feels like it got thrown into a machine, mangled beyond recognition, then spat back out to have Meat's heavenly voice plastered on top =( Surfs Up is in a similar boat, Left in the Dark was pretty good but was still a disappointment to me, and I just plain didn't like Meat's version of the Future. MATLAF goes without saying and the few from BBIS and WTTN I just didn't click with.

I don't mean to offend anyone with these views, it's just my opinion...this thread really is pretty negative when you get down to it =(

For me I'd say 'Do It' was quite weak in my opinion - it just didnt feel like a meat song to me lol

'Cry to Heaven' was another which I never really liked. I thought the song was ok at best but tbh i dont think i would have missed it from Bat3.

I do disagree with some other opinions here though :-). I mean I really like Priscilla & I do quite like Standing on the Outside as well :-). Nowhere Fast is a song I like, but not the album version - i really enjoy the live versions!

Razor's Edge. Sorry, just can't stand it. Also BBIS (the album).

Did you consider every one of Meat's songs in your selection? I could list a dozen songs from the 80's that are far worse, but most of them have already been listed.

The only songs that I really don't like from WTTN are 45 Seconds and Fiesta.

I love AFL, but when it's performed live, I never enjoy the slow part at the beginning of the song. I think Patti should come onstage and sing the slow lines at the beginning of the song. Then she disappears and the fast music starts. Meat sings the song and Patti reappears to sing her lines at the end.

Do It from CHSIB. Dreadful.

Also, this. Forgot to add this one to my list. You go through CHSIB in track order, every song is just amazing. You just finish Because of You, one of the best songs on the album, ready for another amazing song...

Then you get to Do It. And the mood is killed :(
