| I know, the working title is a bit sucky, but imagine these artists in tribute to what is arguably the most successful work ever done by Jim Steinman. If you like these ideas, or even if you don't, throw in your own! Wagner, I know you've got some favorites too, so toss 'em in the hat! Bat Out of Hell - The Who The ultimate arena rock band performing the ultimate arena rock track. It's sort of like "Baba O'Riley" crossed with Bruce Springsteen crossed with Peter Pan as it is, so why not let the ultimate pretentious rockers take on the ultimate in pretentious rock? For Crying Out Loud - Elton John The kind of OTT piano ballad that one would expect to hear from Elton at this stage in his career. Think "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" or the '97 version of "Candle in the Wind," with a tasteful string arrangement, and maybe that boy soprano choir that Jim is so fond of, Mahler style. | |
