People have said these things about that :

Nah, I like this better.

jonmc - you are a monster. The only worse way to start the day would be with a Jounrey song or a tall glass of Abe Vigoda's diarrhea.

And it wouldn't kill you to listen to Heather Nova's rendition of Chris Isaak's Wicked Game, either.

I think "Tonight Is What It Means to Be Young" is actually one of the greatest rock songs ever written. And I would download it if I didn't already own the whole soundtrack.

There, I said it.

Well, it's Jim Steinman. Nobody does kitchen sink excess like ol' Jimmy.

Also, when your beer sozzled after being delayed an hour on a N train and worrying about test results and looking out at a rainy night from a row house window, it's very.... atmospheric.

Also, unlike most normal men I didn't have a crush on Ellen Aim, I dug Amy Madigan.

I wasn't much for Streets of Fire, but I will admit to a soft spot about a mile wide for Vision Quest, starring Matthew Modine, Linda Fiorentino, and the incomparable Linda Fiorentino's Ass. A young Madonna - appearing as a club singer! - shared the lietmotif (with Red Ryder's "Lunatic Fringe") with "Crazy For You." Neither song ever fails to put me back into 1985, when the world was new.

Sicko!

I'm embarrassed to admit that I am unfamiliar with this chapter in the Jim Steinman catalog. Damn, that was good. Such glorious bombast!

Bombast, he wants?

Here's Some Bombast for ya. (yousendit, all around)

Manowar?!? Goodlord. For the first time in ages, I now regret not keeping the Granicus record, it would have been a nice addition to the bombastic exccesses posted here. And Jim Steinman manages to be so far over-the-top it actually goes past funny to being unfunny again.

Posted by: Slack-a-gogo on September 27, 2005 12:16 PM

Wow, I guess I did keep the Granicus record. Here's Cleveland Ohio (YouSendIt.com). Now I remember why I meant to get rid of it in the first place.

This thread has taken a most unfortunate turn...
