Meat Loaf · Deprogrammed Music Podcast

0:33
It's deprogram the podcast where we try to get you into a band.
0:38
Well, or an artist because today's artists is meatloaf.
0:41
And they say a meatloaf, a day does something.
0:46
Well, you know not much anymore. I guess.
0:48
Rough start Justin. Yikes Chrissy but meatloaf up on
0:53
the board bailing out please. I did.
0:57
I um I discovered meatloaf in the what mid-to-late?
1:01
80s when I saw first saw Rocky Horror Picture, Show, and was
1:07
immediately fell in love with him.
1:10
Took a deep dive, it took a deep dive into everybody.
1:15
In the cast like basically him and Tim Curry though, we're the
1:18
only ones with music to go. Listen to Tim Curry's stuff is
1:23
fantastic and so is Meatloaf's obviously, but just loved loved
1:28
loved Meatloaf. I loved the theatrical.
1:31
Act of a lot of his music, he's just one hell of a singer, you
1:36
know, in the end, it turned out, he wasn't that great, a person
1:40
which kind of sucks, but amazing Entertainer, have loved him for
1:46
decades and was surprised that he hadn't been on, do it
1:51
programmed yet. When he died last year, I'm
1:52
like, oh, we have to do this. Yeah, so I threw him up on the
1:55
board. Yeah.
1:56
And filling out the panel today. Brian.
1:59
This is your first time here. Talk to me about why me Loaf is
2:03
the first time you hear, why is this what you're crossing your
2:06
the program threshold? Well, I discovered discover the
2:13
Show recently through a different podcast actually threw
2:17
a Pearl Jam podcast. And then I was like, oh man,
2:20
like like I want to do this so I was scrolling through is growing
2:23
through, I'm like all right, you know I you know, I saw a few
2:26
artists on their who I was big into it had been done yet, so
2:31
Yeah, Meatloaf was definitely one of the first ones that I
2:34
jumped on. I saw him in concert, maybe ten
2:41
years ago, I still say it's concert I've ever seen and it's
2:47
just, it's just been just been digging him ever since I bet he
2:54
put on a hell of a show. I guarantee that he absolutely
2:57
did. I saw him in 1990 out of City
2:59
Brockport and it was just a spectacle.
3:02
Yeah. I feel just wonderful.
3:04
Yeah. Who is he?
3:05
It was, it was him and Cyndi Lauper.
3:07
Pretty much a open shit. So it was weird show for me to
3:12
go to and despite all like my favorite bands that I've seen,
3:16
countless times, I still that Cyndi Lauper.
3:21
Meatloaf show at the Mohegan Sun was it's still like my go-to
3:27
best concert I've ever seen. We're going to put a pin in that
3:30
because I think there's more to that conversation than meatloaf.
3:35
I'll put a pin in yet but we have another A first-timer here
3:38
Shawn. This is this is your first time
3:40
on the program, you're you are crossing the program threshold
3:44
as well. Why why meatloaf?
3:46
Why did you need to? Come talk about me, Love Today.
3:50
Meat loaf's been one of my ever. Just I've noticed you guys never
3:59
did it. I came to the podcast started
4:01
listening about a year ago Just went ahead and asked signed up
4:10
here. I am.
4:11
I never got to see him in concert.
4:14
Fortunately, but just always like that the actress up, Loves
4:22
music voice. Just so much to say, I could go
4:28
on and on. So the one thing you touched on
4:33
just their Sean and Chris mentioned was, was the
4:36
theatrics. And you know, like I'd never
4:39
done the Deep dive. I believe my parents had Bat Out
4:43
of Hell to when you know anything for love, kind of blew
4:49
up and I Leave. They had that CD.
4:54
I could be wrong. I could be mistaken but I think
4:57
they had that. So like I was vaguely you know
5:00
I'm aware of him. I'm aware of the guy, I'm aware
5:02
of some of his music and you know from just that one song,
5:08
you can kind of gather that there's more to this guy than
5:11
you know, just Just a rock band you you could only hear anything
5:20
for love and understand that there's there's a bit of theater
5:24
to this guy and so you know as you're listening to the music
5:27
like, oh okay? Yeah, it's like in that vein of
5:30
an Alice Cooper in that vein of a almost like a marriage between
5:34
the theatrics of of an Alice Cooper and queen like oh yeah
5:39
you know oh yeah so you know fine.
5:44
Getting a chance to kind of listen to the records and kind
5:47
of get that Fuller picture of who this dude was was kind of
5:52
nice. It's funny because like Fight
5:54
Club is one of my favorite movies and so like he was one of
5:59
my favorite parts of that movie to finally kind of, you know,
6:03
fill out again fill out the gaps that I had no idea because at
6:08
that point he was just the anything for love guy.
6:11
He was just that deer. And you know, To go backwards
6:15
and go. Okay, yeah.
6:16
There's there's more to this. So to that point though you know
6:20
filling out the gaps. This dude has a massive
6:23
discography Chris we had to we had to chop it down.
6:26
Pretty heavily. Yeah, we chop it down a lot.
6:29
So like first talk to me about like you know, why did we stop?
6:33
Where we did believe we stopped at Bat Out of Hell to rhyme?
6:37
Why'd we stop there and then walk me through what it was
6:40
like, coming through to get your 20s.
6:44
Funny, you mentioned the Bat Out of Hell, to CD just yesterday,
6:47
my five-year-old walked up to me holding the Bat Out of Hell to
6:51
CD. Like she had found my little
6:55
folder with the CDs that I have left in it.
6:57
She's like Daddy, what's this? And I'm like, oh, child, wait a
7:01
few years. So that's a CD sweetheart, you
7:04
listen to music on it. Like, oh, like on my tablet.
7:07
Yes, exactly. Thought it was funny that she
7:10
brought me that CD as I was struggling to get through this
7:13
list. It actually out of all the
7:16
programs I've done. It was not bad.
7:19
Okay. There was a lot of his stuff
7:22
that I hadn't heard in years had only probably listened to once
7:26
and for good reason, then non Jin Steinem and written stuff is
7:33
not great, it's certainly meatloaf, but it's not, you
7:37
know, meatloaf right. What you notice as you listen to
7:42
all of the album's, you can tell which Ones were written by Jim
7:45
Steinman and which ones were not.
7:49
It's a shame. They didn't have that.
7:50
A hell three on Spotify? I don't think they did.
7:54
I look for it? I don't think I saw it but I
7:57
think we cut off at a good point.
7:59
You get a really good. You get a really good look as to
8:03
as to what he was about with the music that we chose.
8:08
So Brian again this is this is your first time here.
8:11
This is the first time you've had to comb through a
8:13
discussion. This Cog.
8:15
What was it? What was it?
8:16
Like, your first time going through this?
8:18
And, and did you have a game plan coming in?
8:20
Like how did you, how did you pick your 20?
8:24
It was tough because obviously, you know, the big to the big two
8:31
albums, the most important most, you know, most listened to.
8:35
So you know, it was really trying to not just have all of
8:41
that out of hell, one and two as my my 20 songs, I have listened
8:47
to Midnight at the lost and found a lot actually.
8:53
My wife used to play a lot back when we were dating.
8:57
So I did a bunch of songs off their, but I think my original
8:59
list was like, 2728, maybe 30, there were a few tough cuts, a
9:10
few, that were tough, and being in my bottom five.
9:13
I'm like, well, yeah, I mean, basically, you know, I tried to
9:18
touch on everything, there was one album, I didn't like at all,
9:21
but I I made myself Play the album over and over perhaps
9:28
gaslighting myself to into liking you.
9:33
I did, I did finally get a thumb off it.
9:34
But yeah. So basically it was basically,
9:37
you know, going with my favorite songs in the top 20 albums from
9:41
the hell albums. And then, you know, discovering
9:46
some other ones along the way. All right, and again Sean your
9:51
first time here. Did you come with a game plan?
9:54
See, I tried to I listen to a lot of episodes.
10:00
You guys have done, I didn't think it'd be that difficult.
10:04
I had trouble and see same with Brian Bat Out of Hell.
10:13
One and two. That was hard to cut.
10:16
Yeah. And I knew dead ringer but the
10:20
other ones I really wasn't sure about so, I just kept going down
10:25
and finally, I just decided, Well, the ones that got me into
10:29
them, so that kind of sound but I'm just going to go But once I
10:34
got down to 30, it just got a little more tougher.
10:40
I think what I love about new people come in before I before I
10:44
give this is you I think you learn a little bit because you
10:48
know what, more on this later more on this on after the fact
10:51
that you on.com scishow, hi Justin.
10:52
If you'd like to hear what we're going to get into here, but I'm
10:56
very much in line with y'all actually, you know, again, I'm
10:59
the new year here. Bad at Hell 1 and 2 to at the
11:03
finest Point possible on it. Is the meatloaf that I want.
11:07
When I listen to those records that is what I pictured as as
11:11
meatloaf and it highly it delivers on the highest level
11:15
correct I enjoyed dead, you know dead ringer.
11:19
I enjoyed that Midnight at the lost and found you know was
11:22
solid. Then there's the other record
11:26
that we listen to. I was like okay, whatever this
11:29
one's. Yeah, yeah but better, how one?
11:33
To I was like this oops this is what I'm looking for.
11:36
This is what he sounds like and you know I was able to find
11:39
stuff to kind of fill out, so I didn't just have those two
11:42
records but now I'm pretty much in lockstep.
11:46
I think what this is going to come down to is Choice.
11:50
Like they're still even with just those two.
11:53
Like there's a lot of choices that were going to have to make.
11:57
So now let's let's crank up the heat before we take, take our
12:01
first break. Chris based on the conversation,
12:06
we just had, how many do you think for the final say we will
12:10
get through unanimously? Like I said, before we started
12:13
recording, I think this one's gonna be tough.
12:15
I want to go pretty low just because of so many of his songs
12:20
are so similar, depending on What kind of thing you're into
12:26
be it love or cars or rock and roll or breakups or whatever?
12:30
I don't know. But everyone has also said they
12:36
really love Bat. Out of Hell one and two so I
12:39
don't know. It's a really tough.
12:43
I'm gonna go stay safe and safe for.
12:46
We're gonna have four okay for unanimous?
12:49
I think that might be high. Yeah, - what for it's possible.
12:53
Brian. All right, all right, so I'm
12:57
going to, I'm going to assume that the two big singles from
13:01
the first album. Second album are there and I was
13:06
going to say for, but I'm gonna, I'm gonna swipe in right
13:09
underneath and say three. That's a good gamesmanship right
13:13
there. That's some good gamesmanship.
13:15
I like it. You'll learn to play the game
13:17
very quickly. Yep.
13:19
So fun. Sean.
13:23
Oh my, this is going to be hard. See, Nova.
13:31
You know what? I think.
13:31
I'm just going to go with See bye.
13:37
All right here we go. Yeah that's the middle of town.
13:41
I don't think it's going to work.
13:42
But yeah. Well you know you never know.
13:44
You never know. You never know you know there
13:46
could be some sneakers in I think.
13:50
Three and four are like right. Those seem right on the money to
13:55
feels too low five is right at that almost too high level.
14:02
But I don't want to be the dick and say to.
14:05
So I'm going to go Ultra positive and I'm going to, I'm
14:07
going to go to past Sean. I'm gonna go seven.
14:10
It's got to say shoot the moon. Go 7.
14:13
Yeah. You know what's the worst that
14:16
happens? Yeah, I don't get it.
14:19
So, all right, so we're going to take a quick pause and when we
14:22
come back it's time to blew the game as Triple H.

15:10
And with that, the name of the game is deprogrammed, the four
15:12
of us have come through a select.
15:15
T' view of Meatloaf's discography and plucked out 20
15:18
songs. They were now going to mesh
15:20
together in an attempt to create a top 10 circuit for you, in
15:23
case you let meatloaf pass by you.
15:26
Um, look, man, let's, let's start off with a bang.
15:30
I always love when track one of a playlist track one.
15:33
Album one gets it right. It gets you in the mood for for
15:36
what's coming out of hell. Course.
15:42
Yeah, really. Oh yeah.
15:43
There we go. There's one well, you know, you
15:48
hate. It's the right tone Setter.
15:51
It's it, it's exactly what I was hoping for when I push play on
15:54
the playlist. And it's a 10-minute song.
16:01
Oh my God, that's an average that's average for her.
16:04
That is the thing is that average like I definitely I
16:06
forget failed to mention that I definitely took that into
16:09
account too often like it in for shorter songs and stuff.
16:13
But some of them, some of these longer ones are undeniable
16:17
because they're him, you know, the record Executives, hated him
16:20
like mr. Loaf.
16:21
Do you have any radio play of the songs on this album?
16:25
Fuck no. My short of song is 5 35, it's
16:29
him. It read radial length, the the
16:34
good radial length is two thirty, and he's right double
16:38
down on that. So it is D.J.'s.
16:41
Look this guy where they need to go to the bathroom.
16:44
Yeah, but this is great because it checks off so many so many
16:49
things, you're hoping for its got like a great piano line to
16:52
it. It's got great guitars.
16:53
It's very theatrical. It walks so many.
16:57
Different meatloaf lines. And it's it's right out of the
17:00
bat, you know, and two albums were named after come on.
17:03
Yeah. So right to.
17:05
Yeah. All right.
17:08
We've got one in our three albums.
17:12
Yeah. All right, Chris, I always like
17:15
to, like throw up my number one or two to get the Heartbreak out
17:18
of the way when nobody else picks it and I'm gonna so I'm
17:21
gonna go with the one that that brought me to him.
17:25
Whatever happened Saturday night, or is they call it on the
17:28
movie, soundtrack hot patootie. I have all I have that.
17:33
I have it. I have it.
17:37
Oh, wow. Oh man.
17:41
This could be a pair of you boo situation where we all think
17:44
we're kind of like, right all over the place.
17:47
And I'm not. This is this is the song that
17:50
brought me to meatloaf Rocky. Horror was such a huge part of
17:53
my wasted youth. See what I did there.
17:59
And yeah, amazing song. I wanted to go.
18:03
We that was three. Justin knows.
18:05
All of us. I wanted to ignore it because it
18:14
was hot. It was Rocky Horror, but when
18:17
you listen to it it's meatloaf. Like absolutely now Italy.
18:22
He's the star of it and on top of that, it has the benefit of
18:26
being a three-minute song, right?
18:28
So it's like, it shows you, he can do it, he just chooses, not
18:31
to. Yeah, and then the original
18:34
stage show he played. Both Eddie and Professor Scott
18:41
which I think was amazing and they chose not to do that for
18:44
the movie which pissed him off. But yeah if you ever listen The
18:48
Rock, The Roxy cast of Rocky Horror.
18:51
It's amazing. All right, so look I want to say
18:56
this right here. Brian.
18:57
No, literally no pressure because we've already performed
19:00
way better than I thought you would so and I feel like there's
19:03
a couple more homers out there so starting to Start to rethink
19:07
my for, yeah. Hey, all right.
19:12
Um, yeah, we're on a roll. Let's, let's try keep it that
19:16
way. I'm going to go with the first
19:18
big single off the first album, I'm going with Paradise by the
19:21
Dashboard Light course. I don't have that one.
19:30
I don't have it either. It's my number kill ma.
19:36
Yeah, me too. Right.
19:36
But I know right behind opportunity.
19:40
The good. I was the good news is.
19:43
It's a to, and the possibility is, it could still be alive?
19:50
You didn't win. Yeah, somebody else had you.
19:52
It could still be alive. I've so, All right.
19:56
Wow, Sean. All right, I'm going to start
20:01
big to off, Bat Out of Hell to life it with him.
20:10
I got it. No, I don't.
20:12
Yes, I have it. All right, it's got three so
20:17
that, you know, doesn't necessarily Edge anything out.
20:22
But A3 is going to take precedence over a to, I also
20:26
wanted to mention when I asked the the audience, but songs
20:31
somebody actually said not Paradise by the Dashboard Light
20:35
and I saw that but they're the reason was for Playlist length
20:41
was like well they're all its they're all they're all long
20:44
would your all along? Yeah yeah and you can't go
20:47
wrong. I'm like fucking Phil Rizzuto is
20:49
on that track you can't pass up that well I did so sorry.
20:54
Well you are you also earn a Yankee fan so I grew up
20:58
listening to Phil Rizzuto actually quite the quite the
21:00
opposite. Some might say yes.
21:03
Alright so we're back to me, huh?
21:06
Yeah. All right.
21:07
I'll do it. You know, I'll put it up number
21:10
two because we don't have this conversation for me.
21:14
Without this song. I do anything for love, but I
21:16
won't do that yes. Like my number one actually.
21:21
Oh, definitely that. There we go.
21:24
Um, almost cut it. I almost got it.
21:28
It was on my list to cut because bat out of hell and I would do
21:32
anything for love. I'm like, well, those are the
21:34
two big. This is meat, love songs and I
21:37
picked that out of hell as my top one.
21:39
So, why should I have this one? And then I was talking to my
21:42
neighbor about it, she's like, oh well you gotta have Paradise
21:45
by the Earth and I'd do anything for love.
21:47
I was like fine. I'll leave it.
21:50
We kind of do. Right?
21:51
Like yeah, you know. Yeah.
21:53
You know. Yeah.
21:54
You know. Yeah always.
21:55
Just put me though. What would we do around right
22:03
around? I To ignore it because 12
22:07
minutes because everyone's probably heard it but like
22:10
walking around the neighborhood and listening to this song and
22:13
and it's got like so many different movements and it's got
22:17
rock. And again, it's got like
22:18
operatic. Like yeah, very theatrical is
22:20
like but this is him like absolutely why would why would I
22:24
ignore it? And again you know maybe people
22:28
somehow don't know it and if they don't well you should go
22:32
listen to it. No, it's a great song.
22:35
It's begging. Begging is the thing he was.
22:41
All right. Look at that, though.
22:43
Right there at Brian's 3. All right.
22:46
All right, Chris. All right, no more now.
22:50
All right, so it's me. Alright, um, let's go with Let's
22:57
get away from the the big two albums.
23:00
And go. All right, I'm going to do.
23:03
My just knows I love to do somewhat problematic songs go
23:08
with Priscilla. No.
23:12
Nope, no. Oh, there it is.
23:17
And my wife was angry that I didn't pick Priscilla.
23:20
She look at my desk and she goes to me.
23:21
Should be whisper Sela. I said that?
23:24
Yeah. No.
23:25
I mean, it's oh, she's barely 16.
23:28
It's like, but it's not about she's screwing around or
23:31
whatever. It's about a rebellious young
23:34
young girl and I had to rebellious young girls so it
23:38
really, you know, I dug it. Song, I couldn't son.
23:43
I assume that must have been the reason I put it out of my mind.
23:49
I don't like the course. I don't know.
23:51
Just, I don't know. I didn't like it.
23:54
Yeah, it wasn't a fan either. All right, Brian.
24:01
All right, yeah. So let's let's go off the big
24:05
albums for a little bit. Let me go to Let's go to the
24:10
title, track Midnight at the lost and found.
24:13
Absolutely. I don't have it, I don't have it
24:19
either. I really enjoyed that song.
24:22
It's my Ascot five top five ranking to choose aren't
24:27
necessarily dead in this conversation.
24:29
So I'm not doing too well here. I've all to this is.
24:34
All right, Sean? See how stay on midnight at the
24:39
lost and found pick if you really want.
24:45
You really want to know? I don't have it.
24:47
I don't know. I do not enjoy it.
24:50
It was a late cut and there it is.
24:54
Sean gets the taste of the water.
24:58
It happens to the best of us. Yes.
25:00
How's it feel wonderful. You get over it as long as it
25:05
wasn't One Like You Were Dying to have.
25:07
Yeah, yeah, right. But yeah, we're going to the
25:10
carwash Blues. Alright, so we're back to me.
25:18
I'll play somewhere in the middle and see if I can find you
25:20
guys. How about dead ringer for love?
25:28
Oh no, no, no, I do. Yeah, I don't have it.
25:38
Brian doesn't, Sean does. Yes, I do.
25:41
Okay, let me find it on my list here.
25:47
Okay, so it's got to mmm. All right, Chris.
25:55
Let me put one where I put my notes.
25:58
Justin has this one and I'm usually wrong, the Promised
26:04
Land. No no, the street alive.
26:13
You don't have that just to I don't.
26:15
I'm singing about fucking Norfolk and shit.
26:19
Oh my God. Maybe I just didn't catch that.
26:23
Oh my God, how. All right, you need to go back
26:34
and listen to that song, Justin I guess.
26:37
And admit to me that you were wrong to not put it on here
26:40
list. I think it might have been one
26:42
of the I had look 27 after my first pass, I'd like 38 after my
26:48
first pass it was ugly. Yeah I had 42 nice But I was
26:55
very, very, very very picky way pickier than I usually am.
27:01
Yeah, with him for some reason, you need to go back and listen
27:04
to that song gesture. No, but I'm listening to it, I
27:07
think, I'm pretty sure it was on my first pass but I, you know, I
27:12
just, I thought for sure you would have that song.
27:15
Kasich Cuts got to come from somewhere.
27:17
Sorry, it's all right, Brian? Alright, alright, let's try.
27:24
Get back on track here. Let's go with.
27:29
Let's go back to the hill. Let's go to for crying out loud.
27:36
No, I don't, I don't either, but I wanted one of the few I had to
27:42
cut off that, um, because I didn't like I can't put the
27:44
whole album on their. Yeah.
27:46
Yeah, it's tempting as it was and that was yeah, that one at
27:50
that, one made the cup. Brian said.
27:55
Yeah. Yeah, I mean you haven't you
27:56
haven't tasted this thing of one yet, so, yeah.
28:00
Feel like it, they're still all you.
28:04
All yours are still Hanging by threads but they're still alive.
28:08
All right through it Shawn. Let's see.
28:12
I'll stay on that album. Bat out of hell.
28:15
All revved up with no place to go.
28:18
Yes. No, it was one of my cuts from
28:24
the album. I got it.
28:26
I knew you'd have a chest and that's why I put it on that
28:30
saxophone. And Justin loves the horns.
28:35
I love horns. I know it's fun.
28:38
Emily right plate? It isn't.
28:40
It isn't always, you know, because there's plenty of times
28:43
where but like That early in the discography, you know, it just
28:51
it fell in the right place in the discography.
28:53
So, mmm. All right, threes.
28:59
All right. Um, Hmm.
29:05
I'll stay in the middle here because I feel like we've got
29:07
some time before before the Panic starts setting in.
29:11
Yeah. How about more than you deserve?
29:16
Think twice. No I do have that one.
29:23
I have not fallen into the pit yet.
29:25
Not yet, I would, I will. Alright, so me and Chris have
29:31
that one. All right Chris.
29:33
All right this one it was a dumb and stupid song and the
29:38
masculine. And the reason I chose it was
29:42
because meatloaf can't say masculine, it's masculine
29:47
masculine. And for some reason that just
29:49
cracked me up like meatloaf, it's masculine.
29:53
That's what I'm saying. Masculine and the women would go
29:57
in and they'd sing masculine like, no.
30:00
You gotta sing it like Meatloaf's.
30:01
A masculine masculine. So yeah.
30:03
Anyway, well no, not expected to be a 1.
30:09
Can anybody save them was some masculine?
30:15
Oh no. Yeah, I did.
30:17
I didn't think so, but I had fun with them.
30:23
I did not have much from that record.
30:28
And it was another you know I got to have some off that
30:31
record. Oh but you know what?
30:32
Now that I'm listening to it I do think this one because I
30:36
think I had like four or five and I just found this one.
30:39
The easiest to cut from just that pronunciation and they it
30:43
makes me laugh. Like dude can't say masculine.
30:48
All right, Brian. All right, let's go.
30:54
Let's try. Get more into here.
30:56
Let's go with Razor's Edge. No.
31:01
Wow. No, I'll save you.
31:04
I got it. Okay.
31:06
All right. My streak of to is continues.
31:11
Every once again, man, like, it could be way worse.
31:15
I've had I've had episodes where it's just one after one, after
31:19
one year. All right, Sean.
31:25
See, I'm going to do modern girl.
31:28
Yes. No.
31:31
Nope. I like that song.
31:34
Yes I do. I this is going almost exactly
31:37
how I how I thought a lot of to. Yeah, a lot of love.
31:43
But that's good like it's better than like an S Tunnel ones.
31:46
All right, let me see where I'm at 12. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
31:54
or I will do a couple more rounds.
31:56
Yeah. Okay how about this one wolf at
32:00
your door? Nope.
32:04
Yes Yes, because the Beginning. Sounds like John melling.
32:09
Hmm, it's an interesting reason, why but Whatever, Whatever Gets
32:15
You Through the door, that's what it made me think of and I
32:17
kept going back to it. Yeah all right now just for
32:20
let's see how bad this this conversation is going to be.
32:23
Let's see three through unanimously, we've got 10
32:28
between the other not be three the between the three threes in
32:31
the twos. So and it's only going to get
32:33
worse. So Chris Here's one that I know
32:37
another one. I expect to be a one because
32:40
it's not quite a song, but it plays into my love of his
32:45
theatrics, wasted youth. No no no.
32:52
Come on. Oh that fucking spoken, the
32:55
word, Chuck Berry red. Oh God, I love that track.
33:01
I love will track 10 much does. The first song he play at the
33:05
concert when I saw. And that was actually, that was
33:08
actually on Jim steinman's album which they wanted to make.
33:13
And they wouldn't record it with meat loaf.
33:14
So he made it himself and just had meatloaf record most of the
33:17
lyrics. It happened.
33:20
Oh yeah. Look up that album that Jim
33:22
Steinman put out, I think in 1982 there are a lot of that ml.
33:28
Two songs on that record. Google I/O, Google without Jim
33:35
Steinman. Meatloaf is nothing.
33:37
No, all right, Brian. All right, let me check that.
33:41
All right, let me, let me try to get out of this funk.
33:44
I'm in batu's. All right.
33:48
I'm going to go with. Objects in the rearview mirror.
33:54
No, wow. No.
33:59
The Sting has found arrived. I cannot see what and I get it.
34:04
I'm not good at this. Game, is on the Facebook page
34:08
that someone was like, oh, you got to have objects in the
34:10
rearview mirror? I was like Mom.
34:12
No I don't have it. Sorry, it's good song.
34:17
Well I don't ya. That album is full of like To 10
34:21
minutes songs that are very similar.
34:24
Yes. And that was one of my earlier
34:26
cuts and like my 20 and 21 II, literally flipped the coin for
34:31
the last two. So, yeah, I think, I think that
34:36
just fell to the Wayside because maybe that.
34:39
Yeah, yeah, let me that like, three minutes of him just saying
34:43
objects in the rearview, mirror are closer than they appear.
34:48
Maybe. All right Shawn.
34:54
I'm gonna stay on that same album hoping this one doesn't
34:57
hurt. It just won't quit.
35:01
No, no. Oh there you go.
35:04
Nope, I love that song. See, this is the problem with
35:10
like, you know, just the two records, really like jumping out
35:15
at us. Yeah, it's all about Choice.
35:19
Yes. Not necessarily cream Rising.
35:24
All right. This feels like it might be a
35:28
sting considering it's taken this long to get to it, but I'm
35:31
doing it anyway. Two out of three ain't bad.
35:34
Yes, oh yes. Oh yes, yeah, go, boom.
35:39
Okay. I expect a job should be exact.
35:45
I was curious. I thought am I the only one who
35:47
has this? Because we haven't done this
35:49
yet. Like I can't believe it.
35:51
All right, we got another one. I love that song.
35:54
Yeah. That was trying to stay away
35:55
from the the bat out of hell and back.
35:57
Yes, ma'am. Just like that.
36:04
You're at Chris's for great tune.
36:07
Well great tune with plenty of conversation left.
36:13
Think that takes Jesus or the see if this one will.
36:18
Make me lose. Yeah, we'll go with another slow
36:21
one off. Bat Out of Hell, Heaven Can
36:23
Wait. No.
36:28
No, I'll save you, Chris, I got it.
36:31
Thank you, sir. Jeffrey heer Bette, Midler, do
36:34
it. I've not heard her.
36:35
She actually did it before. It was released, Jim.
36:39
Steinman, I have a lot of Jim Steinman stories.
36:42
Clearly had her. He's so fascinating.
36:47
But yeah, he wrote that Bette. Midler originally recorded.
36:49
It really nice. Maybe we'll get into that after
36:56
the fact. Yes.
36:58
Brian All right, let's see if we can, I go with.
37:03
Let's go with bad attitude. I think I have that on here.
37:11
Hang on. Yes.
37:13
Okay, yes. I got, I cut mine.
37:19
All right, so it's three. I was like cut three.
37:23
All right, here we go. I'm out of the honey to
37:25
function. I think I kept her album
37:28
representation. Yeah you know for sure.
37:33
But you know that was all that kind of rockets ahead of the
37:35
twos the depending on how many threes we get ya.
37:40
All right, Sean. I'm going to do my one off of
37:45
blind before I stop spline before I stop.
37:51
No, I had it pretty late, but yeah, that was a late cut.
37:56
I had to pick one, please. All right.
38:02
Don't don't. Don't don't dance group down.
38:05
Slow down. I passed it.
38:16
Yeah, I think. I think I gave this a second
38:20
lesson, I'm almost positive. All right, not a great album.
38:26
No, I picked National level for that one, because the whole
38:29
masculine things. Yeah, two three, four, five,
38:35
six. Seven.
38:36
I'm at seven. So let's do two more rounds and
38:38
then we'll dump out. All right.
38:47
Which one? How about peel out, you know?
38:54
Yes, all right, 33. All right, that was late cut.
39:02
All right. So everybody but everybody.
39:06
But Chris mmm-hmm. Yeah, and I've got a bunch of
39:10
ones. So, fuck you guys.
39:13
All right, nobody, but me. Yeah, you're up.
39:17
All right, here's the one that won the coin toss for number. 20
39:21
out of the frying, pan. Yes, and into the paella.
39:27
I got it. I do not.
39:29
Okay. So it's gonna do All men did we
39:39
just did we just stumble into like the threes are now
39:42
difficult? Yeah, yeah.
39:46
All right, Brian. All right, all right.
39:49
We try and get one more try. Get one more unanimous on if we
39:53
have it in there but we're going to go with.
39:55
You took the words right out of my mouth.
39:57
Yes yes. Oh man no doubt so good like my
40:08
number for song. Yeah I don't think I got another
40:12
in the unanimous on my list. Yeah probably not took a lot of
40:16
chances here on these. All right Sean.
40:20
Let's do rock and roll Dreams. Come, nope.
40:25
No. No.
40:26
I'll save you, Sean. I got it.
40:28
Okay. Thank you.
40:31
All right, rock and roll, rock and roll.
40:37
Alright, last, for real round before we dump mmm.
40:44
I'll stay on rock and roll. How about rock and roll hero?
40:48
Nope. No, no.
40:53
Of course, of course, I decide to tell play that one.
40:59
Yeah. But we all know how we feel
41:03
about that record. Yeah.
41:05
And the pick something. All right, that's enough.
41:11
Chris All right, let's see, let's go this one because I have
41:15
another note on it. He he starts off slow and then
41:19
the song ends up with him going full meatloaf.
41:23
And I've told my wife, I'm going to pick this song So leak.
41:27
So I can say starts off, slow goes full meatloaf and you
41:30
should never go full meatloaf read em and weep Yeah.
41:38
Hell yeah. Oh man, I love that song.
41:41
Really bad because I'm I know for a fact that was one of those
41:45
seven. That's one of the few that I
41:46
know for a fact, was one of the seven that I got.
41:50
That was a 30-30. Yeah.
41:55
All right, Brian. All right.
41:58
Well, I have my one song off blind before I stop at you guys
42:01
ready? Pick your one song off of there.
42:02
So I'll skip that. All right, I'm going to go with.
42:12
I'll kill you if you don't That was a late cut.
42:19
I had it. So do I all right?
42:21
Wow three. Yeah, I think I dropped that for
42:32
when I just did whatever it was. All right.
42:36
Show me them in. Wait, yeah.
42:40
See, I'm going to do everything louder than ever.
42:46
Nope, that's one that lost the coin toss.
42:49
No, so he goes. All right, so I only have two
42:55
left after after that, I went from whatever it was five or six
43:00
to just to dump out. I've got keep driving.
43:05
Nope, I have that. I have that too.
43:09
Damn. It's like we were all just
43:12
sitting on. You might have had that one
43:15
might have been why I cut it. That's funny because the one you
43:20
were for sure. I had.
43:21
I did not. Yeah.
43:23
And my last one getting away with murder.
43:26
Yes no no. Okay.
43:31
I mean Chris. I'd like that song a lot.
43:36
Alright Chris whatever you got Lyle I've only got one left
43:40
Fallen Angel. Nope, nope, okay, Brian,
43:45
whatever you got left, everything is permitted.
43:50
Mmm, good song. Now, okay to jam my last one is
43:59
the song offline. Before I stop that I picked was
44:03
One More Kiss. Nope.
44:06
No. Y'all could not the only thing
44:08
we agreed on that record is that?
44:10
We don't like it. Yeah, it was too.
44:13
It was too 80s. You know.
44:15
Forgot. I was born in the 80s.
44:17
It was just too. Just for fun.
44:37
You want to dump out, whatever you got left, Sean.
44:40
I have one left, good girls, go to heaven.
44:44
That's a great song to that. One is actually really close for
44:47
me too. Yeah, you know what guys?
44:50
Like we didn't we didn't like burn up the charts with our
44:54
unanimous but Les we covered a lot of ground.
44:57
Yeah, this was actually there wasn't a ton of mrs.
45:01
Know, so, let's see. What do we got here?
45:03
We got 43. So that means Chris you get the
45:08
final say I've been tearing it up these winds so we've got that
45:14
a hellhound patootie. I do anything for love but I
45:16
won't do that two or three ain't bad our for unanimous.
45:19
Now let's take a look at sort sort sort sort R. 3 is 1 2 3 4 5
45:28
6 7 8 9 10 yep all the twos are officially dead because we have
45:34
Ation Savage? Yeah, we have conversations to
45:37
be had with these threes. Yeah.
45:39
All right. So the threes we have, we have
45:41
our list of a central Meatloaf songs with no Paradise, by the
45:45
Dashboard. Light.
45:46
Isn't that crazy? His biggest thing off is that
45:49
what looks like that hurts? But I won.
45:55
Yeah, yeah he's he brings up about point he won so we.
46:00
Yeah technically. There's there's let's see, so
46:04
sick. Songs left.
46:05
So only five are going to be picked by the group and one goes
46:09
to Chris without question. Like there will be no questions
46:13
so it gets in no matter what he says, so just keep that in mind.
46:19
So I am all for picking our five from the threes and just leaving
46:26
the 2's in the dust, unless anybody has real opposition to
46:30
that. Which takes too long.
46:34
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
46:38
How do we feel about album representation?
46:41
Do we really care? Yeah, I don't think so, either
46:45
not with me. So with that in mind, that
46:51
attitude essentially only got through because at least two of
46:55
us owned up to, we needed something from that record.
46:59
Does, does that hit the wayside at this point?
47:04
Or does it stand up? I'll leave that up to whoever I
47:10
don't remember who didn't pick it but I'll leave that up to
47:12
them. Oh Sean.
47:14
What song is it bad attitude? That one's fine with me.
47:19
I like it. I had to pick one off of that
47:21
album and I had I like both of them.
47:28
Um, you know, to me. All right, so let's do this.
47:31
Let's, let's look at these other threes first.
47:34
Let me just. I'll go through them and then
47:36
we'll, we'll all make. I'll put some hard decisions on.
47:41
Brian, and Shawn got all revved up with no place to go.
47:46
Bad attitude. I'll kill you.
47:47
If you don't if you don't come back, keep driving.
47:51
Life is a lemon and I want my money back out of the frying.
47:53
Pan PL out read em and weep will fit your door and you The words
47:58
right out of my mouth. All right so Brian of those is
48:01
there one that you're like? I can't believe that didn't get
48:04
through. I think you took blood Ralph has
48:12
to be, has to be there. Okay, I'm with you, I was the
48:16
odd man out there. Let's, let's pop that one
48:18
through. Same question to you, Sean is
48:20
there one that got three that you're like I can't believe that
48:23
didn't that didn't get all the way through.
48:27
See, life is a lemon. All right.
48:30
Oh yeah, Chris you were the holdout, you have any opposition
48:34
now? That's fun.
48:35
All right, so that brings us to a five.
48:40
All right. So now let's start playing with
48:41
some of these, these difficult ones here is there one that has
48:47
three. That you were like.
48:49
Yeah, cool. But maybe it's time for it to
48:52
hit the hit, the hit the floor. Like, it doesn't belong.
48:59
Well into the let out of The Frying Pan Into the Fire go.
49:03
Okay. Yeah.
49:05
It's very similar to so many of the tracks on that album.
49:08
Okay. Hmm.
49:10
Any opposition that was. That was my, that was my coin,
49:12
flip one. So I'm willing to let it go.
49:15
All right. How about you?
49:19
Brian is the one that you're looking at your like that.
49:22
It's cool that it made it this far but it can go ahead and go
49:26
now. Um keep driving, maybe that's
49:30
near the bottom. I listed some timber.
49:32
That's number 19 for me anyway. So I think keep driving, what do
49:37
you think? Sean.
49:39
That's fine. All right, so let's lose keep
49:41
driving. All right, so now we need let's
49:44
see. Where are we at six?
49:47
So we still have three more that need to get in.
49:50
Alright, so now let's start looking at at what needs to get
49:53
in there. Anything of these remaining
49:56
threes that you feel like you'd really go to bat for Brian.
50:04
You know what? It's not the usual epic song.
50:08
It's one of his more fun songs but I peel out this one is
50:13
actually kind of you know, high on my list.
50:18
How about both your door? Yeah.
50:26
Okay Chris you were the holdout on Wolf at your door, any
50:29
opposition? Nah, it's good song.
50:32
All right so let's do that. They're all good.
50:36
So well now that all yes that was a late cut.
50:42
All right Sean. Yeah what about you one that you
50:45
would really go to bat for? Probably really like.
50:58
I always kept coming back to that song or some sorry.
51:01
Which one read them and weep. Wait a minute.
51:04
Wait, yeah. So look, I was the odd man out
51:08
with read em and weep and like I said, that was for sure.
51:12
One of those lat was the only one that I was like yeah, that
51:16
was absolutely one of those final seven.
51:18
So I'm with it. Let's put that sermon and then.
51:27
All right, so at this point, at this point, I feel like bad
51:34
attitude can go somewhere. I don't, I feel like we don't
51:36
need it. I feel like all revved up.
51:43
All revved up and peel out. Strangely enough.
51:48
I feel like are the conversation because I'll kill you.
51:50
If you don't, come back is still alive.
51:54
I thought we didn't wait to choose peel out to stay.
51:59
No, I was between, I was between people, are you okay?
52:06
I got you. So so really are.
52:12
So what do we have left? All revved all revved up, bad
52:14
attitude, I'll kill you. Don't come back and peel out.
52:17
Like I said, unless somebody really, really feel wants to
52:20
step up for bad attitude. I think that's out sure.
52:25
That's fine. Yeah, I feel the same way.
52:27
A about I'll kill you if you don't come back I mean if I had
52:30
to choose I'd say all revved up and no place to go.
52:33
I'm leaning that way to against a bat out of hell.
52:37
I had such a hard time. I'm like, I just want to throw
52:39
this whole album on that I mean, sometimes it be that way.
52:43
It's there's a reason it's one of the most selling albums of
52:47
all time. All right, so before I finalize
52:49
that, anybody opposed to all revved up Nope.
52:55
Nope. Nope, and that gives us Chris.
53:02
You are you have the final say? Number 10 is completely back
53:05
Priscilla. Now I'm kidding.
53:08
I'm kidding. No, I have to go with Paradise
53:10
by the Dashboard Light. It's a great song.
53:14
It's got Phil Rizzuto on. It needs a lot to meet
53:18
personally in which there's Stories, I won't go into about
53:24
it. But yeah, no, it's a very
53:26
important song to me. It's certainly pure Meat Loaf
53:33
and I think it belongs on the list despite what whoever that
53:36
person was. Sorry on Facebook.
53:38
I'm not doing this to piss you off person on Facebook.
53:41
Honestly, this song was my number two so I have to bring it
53:45
back. Yeah.
53:46
Same as my number to get my number two.
53:48
It was Randy and to be fair to Randy.
53:51
He did say it was because of the But also Curtis came back with
53:55
kind of hard to leave. Like his best song out so
53:59
exactly exactly. Sorry.
54:02
Ronnie. I like ready.
54:03
Yeah, nothing gets ready. But ya know.
54:05
I got to bring that one back. Alright, so we've got our going
54:07
back Paradise. We've got our 10.
54:10
That a hell? Hot patootie.
54:11
I do anything for love, but I won't do that two out of three
54:13
ain't bad. You took the words right?
54:15
Out of my mouth. Life is a lemon and I want my
54:17
money back. Wolf at your door.
54:18
Read em and weep all revved up with no place to go and Paradise
54:21
by the Dashboard Light it. If only I could read, all right,
54:24
let's turn the heat up Chris of those 10 which one is the one
54:31
opportunity, whatever happened to Saturday night.
54:35
That's the number one. All right.
54:38
Brian number one I do like the idea of track 1 album one with
54:51
going with that out of hell and my favorite.
54:54
My favorite song is I do anything for love because it was
54:57
the first kind of man when I heard But also like hot patootie
55:07
and I like Rocky Horror Picture Show.
55:11
It's a great opener because it's a quick one and What do you
55:16
feel? I'll second Hoppity, but it's
55:19
fine. What do you think?
55:20
Sean? I'll third that.
55:24
Okay, I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd
55:28
melt come on. So, I'm not going to disagree,
55:31
but I am going to play some devil, The Devil's, Advocate
55:34
advocate here. Number one, I do think that this
55:36
is the most accessible on the list.
55:37
I think this is the easiest entry point to meatloaf, which I
55:42
think, which is, obviously the idea here.
55:45
Yes, And I think it does do meatloaf in three minutes which
55:49
is, you know what you want but also are we lying to them by
55:55
giving them a three-minute meatloaf song.
55:59
Yeah, since he does these big big big songs.
56:03
Now that again, I'm perfectly content in making hot patootie
56:08
unanimous because I think it checks almost every box. but, Do
56:15
we take song Length into consideration here?
56:20
I think the only thing that opportunity doesn't have that
56:25
most of his songs have as it was it was not written by Jim
56:31
Steinman, it was written by His Name Escapes Me.
56:35
Fuck me. The guy that wrote fucking
56:39
horror that guy that guy. Yeah.
56:44
Yeah. Something O'Brien Conan O'Brien.
56:49
Not Conan O'Brien. God damn it.
56:52
I don't know why I can't remember his name off the top my
56:55
head it's because I'm old actually but Richard Richard
57:02
O'Brien, thank you, there we go. Yes and I think Just on him and
57:08
took the style of that song and said well we're going to make a
57:11
career out of this for meatloaf will just make the songs longer,
57:18
I don't know. Well again I was just playing a
57:21
little Devils Advocate Advocate. I feel like we I feel like we
57:25
got it right? It's a meatloaf song, very
57:27
compact, easily accessible. So let's go with hot patootie.
57:31
Yeah, if I had to choose, it would be bad at a.
57:35
Hell would be the ultimate other.
57:38
Meatloaf song, that would be a number one, although, most
57:42
people would say, I do anything, but I want to do that because
57:46
that's the song. A lot of people heard first, I'm
57:48
an old fart. So I would go with one of the
57:52
other two. All right, side for me, it's hot
57:54
patootie. So to round it out.
57:55
Opportunities are number one, bat out of hell.
57:57
I'd do anything for love but I won't do that to out of three
58:00
ain't bad. You took the words right?
58:01
Out of my mouth. Life is a lemon and I want my
58:03
money back, will fit your door, read em and weep all revved up
58:06
with no place to go and Paradise.
58:07
The Dashboard Light, let's let hot patootie.
