One of Jim's busiest years.

I don't really like it, musically.

Ozzy Osbourne

Hmmm, not sure about that. Shirley Bassey should definitely sing a Steinman song. I nominate "Not Allowed To Love" or "Unsettled Scores"

I've only ever watched it once or twice. I just don't like the way he lies about Jim and the creation of the Bat album

I do. In The Land of the Pigs, The

What about the Batman demo?

Really? You should show her Cannibal Corpse. No, DON'T. DON'T!!!

It's interesting because I love Pink Floyd (not so much Rogers' ego-attack with "The Final Cut" etc.) and they're a very different extreme to Jim Steinman. They're more laidback, more glacial and atmospheric...whereas Steinman's like "EVERYTHING'S IN YOUR FACE!"

Everyone I

That's strange, because no one at my school had any specific problems with Meat Loaf...and I ranted on enough about him

It doesn't show you anything at all.

Tell me what version you get; UK mix or US. You really need both if you're a fanatic.
