Why would you let a big nosed plastic guy intervene with your show song choices?

Barbra Streisand and Celine Dion couldn't deter him from performing Left In The Dark and IACBTMN but Barry Manilow allegedly has such a huge impact on whether a song is performed by Meat Loaf or not? Reminds of the elephant that's afraid of the mouse. If I had a song of which I thought that someone else "ruined" it, I would want to perform it more than ever.

I think Celine's version of coming back is one of the best Steinman productions but then it's very close to Pandora's Box. I feel Celine shouts on it rather than sings at times other than that it's great.

I don't believe Barry's version would stop Meat from singing it live. Meat doesn't want to IMO. Just take a look at the choice of songs he has to pick from anyway. I'd much rather him sing "FCOL", "Not a dry eye", "Where the rubber meet the road" live.
A lot of people see him as the only one who can sing Steinman's songs the best, I wouldn't be to sure about that. He's the main artist for Jim's music alright, but to be fair Jim hasn't worked with many other artists as much as he worked with Meat and Bonnie Tyler. I would have liked to see Rhydian from the X-factor release a cover of Steinman songs. Jim's music is very hard to sing though, you would have to be a tenor almost. |

Rhydian's attempt at Not A Dry Eye was the pits.

I'm not that much into opera, I prefer rock. I don't understand why anybody has to cover those songs. I love Meat's version of FCOL, I don't necessarily need another one. It takes more than just perfect vocals to deliver outstanding versions of Steinman tunes.
