I had this posted as a comment on my myspace page from neverland express page. Thought you would like to help ML get ahead of the Backstreet Boys, at this moment it is ML 40% and Backstreet 60%. I don't know if this has been posted or not, but do you really want to see Backstreet boys beat out ml????

Guilty Pleasures, Round Two: Meat Loaf (5) vs. Backstreet Boys (4)

Which guilty pleasure do you prefer?

I'm not sure on this one.
I can't really say Meat is a guilty pleasure.
I'm quite comfortable liking Meat Loaf.

That said, I can't have Backstreet Boys beating Meat (ooh matron

) in any poll, so i've voted

Meat has gained 7% today, he was only 33 yesterday and now 40. I hope his score will go on raising.
Does someone know when the secound round will end?

That's good that Meat has gained a few more votes, I don't want him to lose to the Backstreet Boys either. And I agree he's not a guilty pleasure, I'm not ashamed to admit to loving Meat and put that as part of my comments.

Maybe not, that's the problem. No matter how serious this contest can be, enabling Meat to win would give him more exposure. And that's the important point, considering that he will soon release a new album.
I guess that's the reason why Meat himself posted the news on his Twitter Page.

I don't see why Meat should win this at all. It sounds like a negative thing to me "guilty pleasure". I wouldn't want to win this if I was a famous rock star (at one point).

It'll give him no exposure whatsoever, it's a crappy poll designed to keep the oddballs off the streets and voting for their favourite artist because they have nothing better to do. Granted it's harmless enough, but lets not kid ourselves that it'll actually garner any additional exposure.

As AndrewG rightfully pointed out, being classed as the most 'guilty pleasure' seems rather negative than positive, as it's something you shouldn't do.

If Meat comes first, second, third, or three frikkin hundreth it's not going to change things for better or worse.

Or perhaps I just don't care enough?

The "ooh matron

" and the "

" were not big enough hits I was joking?

Anyway, it's all way off topic, so what the hell.
