Posted this elsewhere so forgive the repeat...

I was sat at the traffic lights not so long sicne in the sunny weather. Shades on, windows open and generally trying to look cool!!!

I had CHSIB onfull volume and it was playing Testify. I was singing along oblivious to the world when suddenyl, the lass in the car enxt to em started singing the "Poor boy.." lines adn we ahd a mini duet.

Really pissed off all the drivers queuing behind us because we finished the song rahter than set off as soon as the lights changed colour!!!

Every morning I travel by the H20 bus route to work, and every morning now for a month, a particular driver I know Kevin starts to sing Bat out of Hell to me, as soonas I alight the bus, he only knows the first first verse, all the passengers look at me a little ~~~~ eyed, their not quite sure if I'm all there or not

This serenading started about a month ago when Kevin and I got to talking about music in general and I mentioned I absolutely without question adore Meat loaf and his music.

Um me-thinks I will have to teach him another Meat Loaf song.

I cann't alas listen to Meat at work, not even with headphones, I'd have them confiscated and I'm not a pupil, just an adult.

When my daughter was younger, about 3 or 4, I had taken her to Banff to visit a friend and we went to the Hard Rock Cafe. We were waiting for a table and Paradise came on. Tiara started singing at the top of her lungs. The maitre'd thought it was quite hilarious

My car is like a mobile Meat Loaf Karaoke machine .... my hubby tells me that I'm waiting to be discovered at the traffic lights!! (More like arrested!!! ) People hate it when they get in my car, especially if I was in it on my own the last time I went out!! Because it's usually high level Meat!!! Just the way it should be! :)

You can't but help sing when Meat Loaf comes on, it's just the effect he has on you! :)

I don't know if I'm a good singer or not, but hey if it makes you happy then do it!!

Love'n'stuff

A friend and I used to sing 2 out of 3 to one of our work colleagues. He wasn't very impressed but then I suppose we should have been working.

I just walked into W.H. Smith in Hounslow high street, I was persuing the Meat loaf cd's and re-arranging when a young lass by the name of Yolande, began to talk about Meat Loaf, and enthused as to how great he was, and that she loved his singing, I couldn't let a moment like this slip away, so I wrote the address of the mlukfc.com down on a piece of paper for her, and said come join us she promised she would, so we wait a while.............

My good deed for the day

I walked into a shoeshop about a month ago and BOOH was on. the assistant behind the counter was wearing a big dirty smile, I was wearing a big dirty smile, and my friend just rolled his eyes. He just turned around and said, "You have that aura, wherever you go that song comes on" A sign????

I always start my day with a bit of Meat. I have a 2 bus trip (that takes roughly an hour) into work - so I ensure I have enough CD's - batteries & my CD player with me.

The other day I took a detour on the way home as needed to do some shopping. I was sitting nicely on the front seat listening to CHSIB - when a blind man & his dog sat next to me & started talking - so I politely took out my earplugs.

He said " Is that Meat Loaf you are listening to?"
I replied "Yes"

We had a great conversation about the Meat concert he went to on his last world tour. (Sheffield) He became blind about 10 years ago - so had seen Meat before & just imagined him through the gig. He started laughing & said - it did not matter where he sat as he could not see Meat & the band - but said just loved to sound as that is more accute for him.
He asked me to describe Meat - how he is now

I nearly missed my stop - I could have spoke to him all night

The neighbours probably won't like it - but who cares - you wont be able to hear them knocking anyways.....

My philosophy exactly!!!!!! That way you're being honest when you say the neighbours don't complain about the volume

took my meet and greet photo's from Blickling Hall to be enlarged into Snappy Snaps today, when I collected them the guy said to me, Meat Loaf! how did you manage that? I replied that some of us lucky people had a meet and greet and this was one of the bonuses....... we then spent the next 10 minutes talking about Meat and I was late for work (only by 5 minutes)
