A Meat album apparently doesn't fare too well either.

Broadway singers usually go over the top. At least he can still hit the notes while doing so. The Loaf doesn't even try to aim anymore from the sound of it.

Fixed that for you.

If he needs a ton of help in the studio, why not get a singer that doesn't require a ton of work in the first place? Because Meat is a star? LÖL. What was the last hit he had? The market has changed. The kiddies won't be interested and those that love good music won't be either because no matter how good the song may be, his vocals are going to ruin it. And the hardcore Loafers who think he can't do no wrong will suck it up like the hardcore Crawford bluehairs but ultimately there won't be enough of them to make an impact.

If so, pls with a decent singer. Ie not the Loaf.
