While not in the same league as BBâs original, it captures a different nuance and stands as a worthy cover in its own right.
And Jerry got dressed up!
God, I've never liked that song (or pretty much anything by him) from the first moment I'd heard it in 1977. I haven't liked it in the subsequent millions of times I've had to hear it since then - even though it does feature Phil Rizzuto.
I'm just spinning yarn bro. lol
Thought I would give old Proclivities a pinch. You had the perfect needle. I'm trying to poke it thru the eye of...something. How did you like the little gremlin below?
OK, it's a bit much...maybe gaudy, over the top...but it has so much.
Unconventionally long, storytelling with three movements, dealing with young lust, a great baseball metaphor to explore seduction, and then comic regret...
A duet with theatrical vocals full of tension...
Great production by Todd Rundgren, layered instruments, piano...tapping into 50s to mid-70s rock
And...Phil Rizzuto
ps, i was high when i wrote that (greatest...)

Well. don't be sad, 'cause 1 in a million ain't bad...
could be the greatest pop/rock song ever...
Meatloaf - Paradise By The Dashboard Light

Meat Loaf was great in his time. Here's my choice for greatest pop song ever. The video is a melange of clips from other songs/videos but it still works.
