Loved his vocals on "hold me like that" and "see you like this"! Whoo!!!!!

Also loved his new look!

AndrewG · 25 May 2006, 20:13

The "Baby, Baby" bit was great too. Wayy better than Celine IMO.

foundout · 25 May 2006, 21:23

It’s just my opinion.
I think the song was re-arranged not for meat,for her voise ,her tune. and the duet was for BATⅢ promotion in audition program.

And on 1st verse,I could heard that Meat has some wrong tempo. I think it was because of bad condition of Meat himself or TV mixing

Somehow, HE GOT IT GREAT!

It was a good peformance,and biginning of BatⅢ TV promotion.

For anyone interested, caught an interview w/ Kat McPhee today where she mentions Meat, among other things. http://www.thenakedwire.com/media/Foxnews5252006.mpg

It's a large file so takes a moment to download.

you have to give it to him he still has his ability to pull off a great song and make it even better.

I haven't seen it yet but the responses were as I expected, he was brilliant, his voice was poor...etc. The show isn't about Meat, it's a talent show for people who can't produce original material and so sing old songs, usually badly and hope to make millions in the future and the stupid consumer society throws money at them. I hope Meat made good money from it!

Promotion is a necessary evil. Meat often seems sensitive to critics and I hope he ignores critics of this 2 min performance, to me it's irrelevant, but necessary part of promotion.

Mick Loaf · 26 May 2006, 00:10

Just watched it and I thought Meat looked and sounded great!
I don't care what show he appears in, it's great just to get to see and hear him sing.
Well done Meat, and long may the appearances and performances continue!

wizardofodd · 26 May 2006, 00:32

this was a good performance just seemed weired with it being so short!!! i cant wait to Bat 3 and the song is awsome thats the first time i have heard it!!!!

Great comment in US Weekly on discussing what was to come for the Finale:

"...As for Kat making a duet with Meatloaf, I think it will be great. His music has that opera/rock feel that I think would suit Kat’s vocals. Look at the wonderful job Celine Dion did on one of Meatloaf’s songs."

I LOVE the last sentence.

Thats Fantastic,

So is the song 'it's all coming back to me now' going to be on Bat 3?

Looks pretty likely

Kev · 26 May 2006, 02:02

I was shocked how meat looked!!! He'd been looking his age for the last few years but last night you would never have guessed the man was almost SIXTY!!!

You'll not be too shocked then if Celine Dions fans have a completely opposite view

i resent that! personally i hate them both lol
...ya about meats performance on idol...i have been obsessed with idol all season and a huge fan of taylor and Kat and when i heard Meat was gunna be on the finale i like ran around my house screaming...so i watched the show with all my friends who r not meat fans and when he started..they laughed at him and at meat..i just dont think ppl who take the time to know meat and his music and his voice dont really understand it..the first few notes seemed off but as it went on it got better and better and the more i listen to it the more i like it

When you've only got 3 minutes to perform a song, you're not given much time to build up a rapport with the audience. I think on this occasion, it might have been better if Meat wasn't as Meaty as he usually is, he might have come across with the critics better. Just a random thought.

Bart · 26 May 2006, 10:18

I have an impulsive mind.
I have listened to it maybe 10 times. Okay, it is not so bad as I thought it was.
I have been thinking about this performance and the reasons for Meat for doing it.
We all know that he wanted to quit in 2003. Maybe he would do a few concerts every year but that''l be it.
We all know that somebody called him to do another album. Meat said yes, lets do it. The other one somehow for some reason turned his back to him and Meat was stuck with a record contract.
So he records songs. And he ahs to promote. it and along came this opportunity. He couldn't say no, that was out of the question. This was the chance to promote the damn thing. he was forced to do it wether he liked it or not. And that deserves courage. The guy has a lot of courage. And damn, he is brave and damn I feel so sorry for him. I hope the other one watched it and felt ashamed of hisself. Ashamed that HE was weak and that HE let Meat down and that it was HIS fault that Meat had to do this....alone! for 40 mio people and singing a song that was not his and for an audience that was not his.
