it depends on what kind of mood i'm in

I especially love the Orchestra in this song. Everything else is pretty much average.

7/10

Ross · 13 Jul 2006, 14:30

I think Meat is a far better singer thatn the guy on the OCR, but I miss the more textured arrangement from the show, with the 4 characters singing in couterpoint (and the great Good Girls never know what they're missing... bit)

But as Paul said, the orchestra is fantastic and Meat's voice is way better the Amos from the show.

8.0/10

hmm let s see I'll give it an 8-10

Really like this one. I like all the versions I've heard - Metal Philharmonic (Kyle 'Scarpia' gordon) and the WDTW cast recording version. Great song, and one I enjoy performing myself (even if I do it very rarely)

A giant collaborative show-stopper of a song to which Meat does full justice. Contains one of the best lines ever penned imo .. "Come on closer to me now, it's like we're sharing the same skin"

Nice song but not quite the same level of other Meat/Steinman collaborations.

White of High · 08 Jun 2012, 20:13

If you ask me, Kiss is composed by Jim. This style is far from any songs of Webber. I keep it the best arrangement of a Meat Loaf song, even better than the orchestra of For Crying Out Loud...

I don't believe anyone did

.. but given it is credited to both JS and ALW, personally I'd see it as a collaboration. Why on earth would ALW be credited with it if it was written by JS only?

Beautiful song with absolutely stunning vocals from Meat.

I don't usually give songs a rating when I post my opinions on them but if I did, this one would definately be a 10.

RSG · 09 Jun 2012, 03:39

Great lyrics, Great music, Great vocal delivery.

Becuase it was a song in a musical. Webber composed the music, Jim wrote the lyrics. I can imagine Jim had a few songs in his backpack has never published and he thought it would be perfect in the musical. I'm not sure it's true but Kiss is total different than any other Webber stuff and it sounds like Jim.
