I grew up in the Meatloaf era, piano, electric guitars, operatic like driving vocals. My type of music firmly enshrined from that impressionable age. Bat out of Hell blaring on the Alpines.

But it started with the genius of Jim Steinman, the songwriter behind Meatloaf (and many others). He also brought out an album as a solo performer, but the voice was never as good as the music.

Woke up this morning again with a lingering throb in my head, and almost turned back to Kris Kristofferson and another beer for breakfast, on a cold and lonely Sunday morning sidewalk, wishing God that I was stoned ???

Snapped out of the melancholy and the next record playing was : Bad for Good from Jim Steinman.



AND I REALISED THAT I WILL PROBABLY BE BAD FOR GOOD FOREVER :


" Your eyes are darker than sin
And I've been watching them glow
Take a chance on a promise and a roll of the dice
Put your foot on the gas, let it go, let it go, let it go

You've been living your life like a girl in a cage
And you whisper when I want you to shout
And wonder why you wanna go on sleeping
When there's nothing left to dream about
But you better remember
If it's something I want then it's something I need
I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed

And I know that I'm gonna be like this forever
I'm never gonna be what I should
And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while
But I know that I'll be bad for good
I know that I'll be bad for good"


You can hide away forever from the storm
But you'll never hide away from me
I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin

I know that you can be bad
At least a little while
But if you give me a chance, give me one little chance
And give me all the love that you should
Then instead of being bad for just a little while

I'm gonna make you bad for good
I'm gonna make you bad for good"



BAD FOR GOOD : Can this be me ?

You know yourself better than anyone else.

Don't be afraid to look deep down and confront yourself.....until then no one can help you.

Gotta love Jim Steinman. He has a way with words.

I am a total Meatloaf fanatic!

Hope you figure out the answer to your question INL...
