This song was big when we were kids, all over MTV. My brother used to sing his version: "We gonna walk down to electric barbecue, and cook without a fire."
Hard to choose a song from one of my favorite artists and dear friend. I chose this one for a few reasons. When I got divorced 7 years ago, my 25-year friendship with Michael, our time together on the phone... This album and song saved my ass.
I only know Meatloaf's stuff from that one huge album and couple later hits. When I started doing this (almost) song-a-day blog last year, my roommate came home one night and enthusiastically suggested this song. Awesome choice. My roommate is moving across town next month. Sad to see him go, good guy, friend, and roommate. This one's for Josh.
This was my brother's favorite song when it came out! LOVE it.
