Because why would Meat do a song he doesnt like? Especially since Jim isn't producing and not even writing all of the songs on the album? Perhaps if Jim was as hands on as he was for the first 2, he would be able to convince meat how great a song it is, but since thats not the case, it wouldnt make any sense for either meat or jim to have the song on there. if meat doesnt like it, jim will find someone who will, and meat will find a song he does like to take its place. everyone wins, except for the fans who have heard one of the OTT versions and (like me) would be thrilled to hear meat sing it, with a full production and, knowing jim, probably a longer version too (since the version we have heard only has one verse and a bridge).
