Meat Loaf's TWO OUT OF THREE AIN'T BAD just brought me to my knees

[derby378]

Sure, I've heard it in the background here and there, and I knew some of the lyrics all along, but I just watched Meat Loaf perform it on A&E a little while ago, really listening to the words coming out of his mouth, and it smashed into my heart like a sledgehammer.

God bless Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf. Now my cat is sitting in my lap, trying to bring me comfort. Or maybe it's feeding time. I'll take it either way.

3. I want sex but I don't love you? Not so touching IMO.

That song/album does absolutely nothing for me. Pass.

6. Duly noted, but I think the point...

...is that the singer who says this was traumatized for life by the fact that the very same thing happened to him.

4. I hear ya

:cry:

Watching that video is more of a tear jerker than just listening to it.

5. Lots of Steinman songs slay me.

That man has a lot of passion, and a way with words.
