And what happened when Jim worried about the Art?
Pandora's Box, as thrilling and sensational and astonishing and overwhelming as it is, was a big failure. It wasn't as much of a failure compared to The Dream Engine who didn't release anything At All. After Pandora's Box, Jim turned to Meat Loaf and "Back Into Hell" was one of the greatest comebacks of all time with "Anything For Love" topping the charts in 38 countries worldwide (I think that was also an unprecedented achievement for Steinman.) Jim turned to Celine Dion with "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" and I don't disagree with that decision At All. The world would have never heard that beautiful song, and discovered its routes, otherwise. "Original Sin" became the theme for "The Shadow" and I prefer all of these songs in their original versions. The Dream Engine is gone, but now there's a big Bat spectacular where the new stuff is going to have the chance that it deserves. I strongly doubt that The Dream Engine would have done for Steinman's new material what "Back Into Hell" and "Falling Into You" did in the 90s. With that said, I don't like Rhydian or the other person. Jim should be working with Sarah Brightman.
