Paradise by the Dashboard Light has always been mine and Mrs W’s ‘song’.

I’ve just told her Jim Steinman had died and she said ‘Who?’. :roll:

I told my friend M yesterday that Jim had died.

M: Oh no! He was responsible for one of my all time favourite albums!

Me: You took the words right out of my mouth!

Which part, the bit where he'll say absolutely anything to get a shag or the bit where he wishes for the end of time so he can end his time with her?

Or was it the baseball commentary?

OK, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here,
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth,
There's the windup, and there it is, a line shot up the middle,
Look at him go. This boy can really fly! He's rounding first and really
Turning it on now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for
Second; the ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the
Throw, and what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first, here he
Comes, he's out! No, wait, safe-safe at second base, this kid
Really makes things happen out there. Batter steps up to the
Plate, here's the pitch-he's going, and what a jump he's got,
He's trying for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt-safe at
Third! Holy cow, stolen base! He's taking a pretty big lead out
There, almost daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher
Glances over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted down the third
Base line, the suicide squeeze is on! Here he comes, squeeze
Play, it's gonna be close, holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!

A lot of Brits were au fait with Yankee slang even in 1977BG (Before Grease)
