THE QUEEN AND JAMES BOND

[karl]

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this, the spoof between The Queen and Daniel Craig, it is very well done and the helicopter scene is hilarious - also nice to see the corgis got in on the act too.

I missed that bit--but heard about it afterwards--but I thought I was dreaming !!

[karl]

I missed it too Marian, somebody told me about it but it's on Youtube

[Eman]

It was awesome, and so unexpected. I thought it was the best part of the opening ceremonies.

When they announced it as a forthcoming event, it was on April Fool's Day

Thanks for the link Robert. It's cool to watch it again!! Saw your post on Steinman and didn't know he recorded on his own.

[ROBERT M.]

Yes Eman, just one album, when he and Meat Loaf were not getting on very well (1981 or 82)

[Eman]

Hmmm..maybe that's why he concentrated on Air Supply, Bonnie Tyler and those folks..I think Meatloaf would have sung those songs better!!

[ROBERT M.]

I think Meatloaf would have sung those songs better!!

Me too Eman .................after the Deadringer album in 81, Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman went their seperate ways until Bat Out of Hell 2 in 1993.
