10. NOT A DRY EYE IN THE HOUSE

Robert, did you see Meat Loaf on "Celebrity Apprectice" last year? He was very good but had a "meltdown" against Gary Busey! Busey is a nut case anyway, so I think Meat Loaf was well witthin his rights...Check it out on "You Yube"

Henry: please return to listening to the glorious big bands, Italian crooners, and Matt Monro. I'm not comfortable with you knowing all these Meat Loaf songs!

(I guess I shouldn't complain, as your postings mean we will move on to someone else sooner than my predicted three day duration!)

Sorry Marian, but has Dottie left the MM website or departed this life ? :?
Robert: you posted a RIP for Dottie on September 21, 2008. (However, I'm not sure it's the same person as the Meat Loaf fan.)

I already posted the only one I know. I don't have the drive to look up more.

But only two more songs to go. Should we free of this tomorrow morning.

Henry--was that the US Celebrity Apprentice ?-I do not recall those names in the Uk Celebrity Apprentice.

We are way behind with US elebrity Apprentice. The latest final was on last night-have not watched it yet, but it was the series with Joan Rivers and her daughter Melissa as 2 of the celebrities.

Dottie died sometime ago Robert and Paul I think this was the only Dottie we had on the forum. Apology if there's another one around somewhere.

Thanks Henry.

Unfortunately this isn't one of my favorite groups; too many appearances on PBS fundraisers perhaps. And my favorite (Twilight Time) was taken. So I'll wait for the next artist.

And just in case anyone is keeping score...

US Top 100 singles:

Olivia Newton-John: 39
Meat Loaf: 10
