Very Best Of Meat Loaf, The - Meat Loaf

...this, he went through a very bad stage in his life, and came extremely close to giving up on the industry altogether. Finally, he returned with Bat Out of Hell II, and this returned him to his throne at the top of the rock scene. There were albums between these two, and a couple after Bat Out Of Hell II, but they were far from up to standard, and should only be sought out by serious fans! All his best music has come from his partnership with Jim ...
...each track, which makes this very hard to write about. One minute you can be listening to powerful, hard-hitting vocals, next you are mellowed out with near lullaby’s! I’ll do my best to put this across, but apologies if I appear to repeat myself! CD 1 ------ TRACK 1 – Home By Now/No Matter What (8:25) This track opens with a church organ and choir, a very powerful initial image to open an album with. It is an exceptionally ...

Review of Very Best Of Meat Loaf, The - Meat Loaf

...have to say I am very glad I did. The two songs I mentioned are of course in this complilation, as the opening and closing tracks on disc 2 respectively; I'd do Anything For Love is an epic 12 minute album version, as opposed to the single released in the early 90s. But wait - there's more! I was quite surprised as the opening track on Disc One, Home By Now, phased into No Matter What, more commonly known as a hit for Boyzone. My sister was equally ...
...Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste, which, if I remember correctly, she told me is a song from the musical, Whistle Down The Wind. Both songs are the work of Andrew Lloyd Webber / Jim Steinman; Jim Steinman also wrote another 12 of the songs on the album (with a lyrical contribution from Don Black for Is Nothing Sacred), and even performed one himself, the slightly scary Nocturnal Pleasure. Watch out for guest vocals from Bonnie Tyler on A Kiss Is ...

Review of Very Best Of Meat Loaf, The - Meat Loaf

...I came across the Very Best of Meat Loaf and bought it as it seemed to be of good value for money with having 2 discs and more of the classic Meat Loaf songs than any other Meat Loaf album, songs including Bat out of Hell, Paradise by the Dashboard Light, Rock and Roll Dreams Come Through, Modern Girl, Objects in the Rear View Mirror, I'd Do Anything for Love. I would recommend this album for any Meat Loaf fan but if you only intend buying one Meat ...
...He has a lot of great songs which arn't on this album namely Good Girls go to Heaven, More than you Deserve, Out of the Frying Pan and many others, however as a first Meat Loaf album purchase I was completely satisfied. I adore Meat Loaf and his music, have all his albums and go to all his UK concerts. I bought this album about 7 years ago and still listen to it regularly so if you fancy it, go for it and enjoy. ...

Review of Very Best Of Meat Loaf, The - Meat Loaf

...This is not music though to take too seriously, its singalong rock with sometimes enigmatically strange lyrics the likes of which you will rarely hear elsewhere. The very best of Meat Loaf is a must for all Meat fans and anyone who occasionally wants a singalong evening with friends. ...

...saves the epitome to the very end with a re-mastered version of Bat Out of Hell. Not everybody admits to liking Meat Loaf, but put this classic on and there won't be a person in the room who doesn't sing along like they're in Venice or something....A classic album which should have given Meat Loaf many more fans than it probably did....I think its great anyway. ...

Review of Very Best Of Meat Loaf, The - Meat Loaf

This album combines the very best songs sang by Meat Loaf one of the greatest rock and roll singers of all time. The album contains songs like "Any thing for love","Rock and Roll Dreams" and lots more including "Bat out of Hell". I brought this album because I am a huge Meat Loaf fan and listening to his songs are relaxing. However nothing beats going to an official Meat Loaf concert like I did on my 15th birthday. My favourite songs of all has ...

I was bought the CD as a present and have never looked back and im now in the process of getting the rest of his collection. ...
