(Finished October 8th, 2018) The Yearning Desire of Jim Steinman's Songs, Part 1

Hello,

Meat Loaf might be the king of so called cock rock or of the adolescent teenage horniness. His songs, so many times, are about libidinous youth. While there is a lot of love and sex, more sex honestly, there is also a lot of yearning in his music. Even when Steinman's characters get what they want, they don't want it for long like in "Paradise By The Dashboard Light".

On November 30th a special friend and I will be going to the "Jim Steinman's Bat Out of Hell The Musical" and I'm very excited, that's a lot of great songs. It should be a fun night.

It's never built to really last.
