BlandSongs LocalRadio Day3

Another treat today, had to wait until the end again to hear the band and title, Boyzone with No Matter What. My lack of recognition means I'm either a) too young to be the target audience, b) too old to be the target audience, or c) just not very familiar with any of this music.

This is the sort of song that will almost certainly have had one of those guest appearances on the lottery show. The 10 minute show with no audience but for the stick-thin woman presenter and the other two more normal sized women that are the independent adjudicators, not forgetting the disembodied voice chap. Am I taking this too seriously?

Written by Jim Steinman, a man famed for writing either extraordinarily bland and hugely overblown songs, or extraordinarily camp and hugely overblown faux-rock songs. Bat out of Hell sits firmly in the latter category, enjoyable, ridiculous and only needing to be heard once every 4.5 years.
