Default Song's you'd like to hear Meat cover.

I would like to hear a Meat Loaf version of the Antony & the Johnsons song Hope There's Someone. His new vocal style would work really good for this song!

I think there's a thread already been made like this but I couldn't find it.

In the Ghetto.

Crying in the Chapel.

Anything from Johnny Rivers but first thing that came to mind is Midnight Special.

That's actually a Billy Joel song, but there's another great Garth song called 'Ain't Goin Down Til the Sun Comes Up' that would really work if given the 'Mercury Blues' treatment. Remember when Meat said he'd like to get Boneyard on the True Blood soundtrack? A suitable Meat version of this song would be the perfect fit IMO.

If Meat could get all of the words out to Ain't Goin Down Til The Sun Comes Up it would be immense, and a complete flop if he couldn't...would certainly like to hear him give it a good go!

It would be awesome. Every time I hear the song (which is a lot, as the gf is a HUGE Garth fan) I can't help but think how it may sound with Meat and co.

Waste My Hate - Metallica
Powerslave - Iron Maiden

Meat could nail these and with the band in the form they're in, I'm sure they'd be awesome!

I second this one, Elvis would be a great act for Meat Loaf to cover

Love me tender & Just can't help falling in love with you & blue suede shoes

I have seen a clip of him doing Jail house rock

I'd like to hear him do rock around the clock & I like that old time rock & roll.... some other stuff from the 60's

I'd LOVE to hear him sing Cohen's Hallelujah too. Back when he was recrding HCTB he said he was doing the hallelujah song with Hug Laurie, and we wondered if it was Cohen's, and waited with such excitement. He said recently he recorded one song with Hugh which didn't make the album .. so I guess that was "the hallelujah song" but whether it was Cohen's or not we may never know

The man's a legend, and actually it was Meat (in a strange way!) who "introduced" me to Garth when he presented TOTP back in 1994. Garth did Standing Outside The Fire and that was it - hooked!

DREAM cover version!!! I don't know why but if I image Meat doing Hallelujah I think of him doing it much like he did Oh What A Beautiful Morning, which I thought was fabulous

Maybe I'm Wrong by Blues Traveler.

It's kind of country rock blues style thing that Meat is very good at

Ok this is just my opinion and my very first post here;so here goes. I know Meat isn't very fond of Phantom, but I would love to hear him sing some of the songs from it. I think that it would be awesome and I know that he would give it the feelings and heart that it deserves: after all Meat is A romantic and I get chills just thinking of it. I think that he would do it so well that he may even give Michael Crawford a run for his money. love ya Meat!!!

I agree! He has the perfect voice to sing those songs - passionate, emotional and full of heart. I admit, I do happen to be a fan of Phantom

So many people have mentioned some great songs
