Allow me to start off saying I have nothing against Meatloaf himself - I think he's pretty badass- I just think his music sucks.
I know I'm asking the same question as everyone else about this song: What is "that"? Commit murder? Black magic? Lesbian sex? Maybe I'm better off not knowing.
Another thing I always wondered about this song is, does it suppose to be a part of a rock opera or something?
I have to say this was the perfect soundtrack to the movie Titanic. Both the song and the movie was wildly popular in its time, yet, they both were a total disaster. What disaster can I compare them too? I don't know. My brain is still flooded, you fill in that blank yourself.
I am starting to reach the point where I suspect I have masochistic tendicies.
If he was a woman, people would call him a slut. Because he's a guy and Latino, he makes a million dollars.
Doesn't seem right.
Wedding receptions and drunken family reunions haven't been the same since this disaster came out. Oh, how tragic it always is when a mind-numbing song comes with a obnoxious dance; it really becomes an insult to all the senses. I flat out refused to learn the Macarena. Not that there weren't people who fascistly tried to make me learn.
Thinking back, I recall people were even going to retirement homes forcing the elderly to dance. I never seen such a strange combination of joy, horror and hate.
My sister was around 10 when this song came out and she played it on loop, every day until she was 13. I still haven't forgiven my dad for getting her that cassette tape.
