Given the chart success of POTA, I wondered what Meat Loaf songs should be included on a new Greatest Hits album ?

In my opinion this shouldn't be the same answer as, 'what are your favourite Meat Loaf songs ?', as any Greatest Hits album should appeal to the non-fan general public.

In other words, what songs would you include which would have enough general appeal to persuade non-fans to become fans, and then perhaps get into the more obscure Meat Loaf songs ?

So if anyone, mentioning no names, includes Masculine then its a clear case of personal preference rather than trying to appeal to the mass audience !

To make it more realistic (& difficult) we should limit ourselves to a single CD ...

So my choice would be:

1. Bat Out Of Hell
2. Took The Words
3. Two Out Of Three
4. Paradise
5. Dead Ringer
6. Anything For Love
7. Rock & Roll Dreams
8. Objects In The Rear View Mirror
9. Home By Now / No Matter What
10. Its All Coming Back To Me Now
11. In The Land Of The Pigs
