Meat Loaf covers 'More'

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

So I've just found out on the internet that Meat Loaf is working with Jim Steinman on a new album. One of the songs on it is to be a cover of More by our beloved Sisters, apparently more like the original demo Steinman made before he handed it to Eldritch and new lyrics written by Steinman.

Thoughts?

At last some genuine Goth Loaf.
Steinman is obviously very proud of the song and has produced a cover of it before.
As for Mr Loaf, he was all over the billboards in Vegas for his current show when I was there earlier in the week so plenty of life in the old dog yet.

This might be a chance to spread the word about TSOM to a wider audience, given Meatloaf's high profile in the rock world. And with his own credibility on the low side since Bat Out of Hell 3, it could be good news all round.
