Default Christmas Album.

What would everyone think of Meat Loaf doing a Christmas album in the BOOH style

A Meat Loaf Christmas album could work out very well, particularly if he stuck to the classics. Were it to ever happen, what would you like the tracklist to be?

Welcome to the site Nathan .

Personally I don't see this happening but then that might be just me, though if you go to ROL there is a clip of him when he appeared on The Wright Stuff I think and he sang Chesnuts Roasting On An Open Fire (or something to that effect ), I think it was and it's interesting .

That is very debatable... I personally wouldn't want Meat to sing this as it would be a little degrading, again this is a personal opinion .

well, he did that christmas concert for some childrens hospital in 1995. So it's not entirely impossible. Gotta say though those songs combined with his style werent really my cup of tea
but with his recording speed, he'd have to start making a christmas album in february...and who would want that?

Hopefully he won't read this thread. He could feel challenged and indeed record a Christmas album.

in that case, please no frosty the snowman

anyway, not being harsh but who would buy it? die hard meat fans who have every last thing meat recorded, even if they already have it but with a blue cover? joe public wouldn't. i'd want to hear it for curiosity's sake but unless these were some new fab xmas songs, i'm sure i have several thousand versions of each of them. it's an interesting preposition. can't quite picture meat singing any cheesey sleighbells-accompanied songs though. and by the end of december, I hate the vast majority of christmas songs thanks to radio/shop overplay. I would hate to have meat's songs ruined in the same vain!

thinking about this...i can't get my imagination to work well enough to imagine meat singing any well known christmas songs...

I've heard him singing White Christmas, Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer and the Chestnuts on an Open Fire too. I really liked his versions and if he did record an album I'd buy it, but like most of you say don't think it's likely.

Like Helen, I would probably be curious...but being curious isn't the same as anicipating, excited, etc...

It wouldn't be too bad if Meat recorded a son gfor a charity CD you find at drug stores and CVS, though.

If any of you have bought "A Very Special Christmas", Springsteen did a kickass Santa is com'n to town and to my knowledge he didn't do a full blown XMas album. MEat could mabey do the same in the years to come

Oh Meat'd do a fine version of "Snoopy Vs. The Red Baron"

A song to contribute to a charity album? Great

A full album i don't think would work, I know Celine Dion did something like that and it pretty much stunk, but then i'm not exactly a fan of hers so I may be slightly bias
