I actually think that that version of Special Girl is better than Meat's. It sounds a bit like a Paul Young song, a bit more delicate. Meat shouldn't be doing covers like that. The song doesn't really suit him in my opinion.

Discovering that almost 50% of every non Jim Steinman song from Meat Loaf is actually a cover is disappointing.

(Don't start the JS recycling stuff, I know about that obviously!)

I really think Meat ought to work with more dedicated song writers like he did with Nikki Sixx / James Michael and Paul Jacobs/Sarah Durkee. I really think those make for better songs as they are obviously especially written for Meat.
