Default Most unusual place you've heard Meat Loaf songs played

Just a thought.

I wonder how many out there have heard Meat Loaf songs played in unusual places. Here are two and there true!

In our GP's (Doctor's) practice Reception Area (Bat Out of Hell would you believe).

In an operating theatre to mask sounds (I had to put up with Simple Minds because they couldn't find BOOH when I asked for it but they did have it!). You'll gather I was awake for the procedure.

Can you top those?

we play Meat Loaf all the time in the operating theatres I have seem many a surgeon using their instruments for percussion

Many a specimen has hit the formaldahyde to 'bat out of Hell'

The best was a sing along of 'I'll do anything for love' to an operation called a 'Nesbits' (Willy straightening to the untrained)

Trust me it goes on all the time.

The deadly nurse curse. Who infected Meat I wonder?

Shouldn't the undertaker be playing "Heaven can wait"?

Does anyone have Peter Kay Live at the top of the Tower?

At the start there is music in the background played on the organ (it is in Blackpool), there is Sussudio by Phil Collins (or Genesis?) then BOOH!

i don't think their is an unusual place to hear a meat song. i heard Paradise, while bowling, but that was more fun than unusual . i requested the song.

you know that part, where they go "line shot up the middle" during the play-by-play, well it was my turn, and actually through a straight shot. :P it was pretty funny, cause that was like one of three shots up the middle.

Maybe not in an unsual place but...

- in a supermarket a few weeks ago. I suddenly stopped and began to grin. My best friend went: "Don't tell me! Meat Loaf! Right?" They were playing I'd Lie For You.

- at the Glasgow airport last week. When I got off of the plane, I made a few steps and heard BOOH. (Yeah, spooky!) I went on and saw a man in a shop singing (sorta) along and dancing (Yeah, spooky too!).


Patricia
... thinking that is less spooky than that banner at the airport saying "make sure you do not bring any forbidden meat"!

I had Meat Loaf playing in the background when my son was born. I had The Very Best on continuous play and Bat Out Of Hell had just finished and Anything For Love had just started and out he popped.

Wanna bet?

In a Maasai mud hut in the bush in the middle of nowhere in Kenya. Seriously!! I was there for a while last year - a friend I was with had a walkman with him and the Cd in his walkman at the time was BOOH 2. So we listened to a bit of it there waiting to be served some goat's milk!!!! It was great. And the Maasai were fascinated with the walkman!

A very long, long time ago when i was 17, i was on holiday with friends in Spain. Sitting down on our balcony drinking beers i started singing the first line of Modern Girl. A couple of guys and girls on the balcony on the right handside started singing very loud the next line. Then i sang the third, they sang the fourth. And so on and on. At that time i felt like i was the only fan in the universe and this experience was really something because of that. Well, maybe it dont belong here on this topic.

Um, long list coming up here!
Park Lane Interchange: YTTWROOMM twice in Feb last year (and you all know how short a month Feb is!)
Leeds Bus Station (interchange????) on the way down to Dover. It was the weekend of a music festival or something and there were hundreds of students sitting around listening to cds, and one group had Bat on!
Restaurant in Fuerteventura: YTTW in hotel restaurant we stayed at. We'd just literally sat down and it came on :)
Pub called The Wheatsheaf outside of Keswick in the Lakes (actually, that's not that strange, is it?)
My sixth form common room the other week: A friend had just bought Heaven and Hell and she put it on the cd player. it lasted about half an hour!
This one's more nice than strange, but a friend of my brother told me that at a funeral he'd attended, they had Home By Now/No Matter What on at the end :) Apparently there wasn't a dry eye in the house :)

Bat Out Of Hell.... playing very loud about 1000 feet under the Irish sea..... what was even more unusual was the fact that I wasn't in the vessel that had it playing... I could tell you more, but I'd have to shoot you afterwards

Maybe this isn't unusual unless you know my house mate.....she claims to absolutely *hate* ML and cannot even begin to understand what it is about him that I like so much........but I DID CATCH HER HUMMING PARADISE the other night.....he doesn't get much attention in my area of the country so, sad to say I never hear him anywhere else

hidden in bushes of a florida hotel were speakers where they piped music day and night, they played AFL, 10 times a day. It was before it was released here and i couldn't understand why I recognised the voice so much!

Also during my emergency cesarian section in hospital, they played BOOH.

Tescos just before xmas, Dead ringer, now thats a good one to have at a funeral!

Mcdonalds at chesterfield, BOOH
