Anyone else that likes Jim Steinman?
Jim Steinman is a long-time favourite of mine; composer and producer, he is mostly famous for writng and producing the Bat Out of Hell 1 and 2 (not the despicable BOH3) albums for Meatloaf, and Bonnie Tyler's mega-hit Total Eclipse Of The Heart.
However, many Steinman afficionados rate his two songs on the soundtrack to the 1984 movie Streets of Fire by Walter Hill as the best he's ever done. The group playing is called "Fire Inc.", but you can clearly hear long-time Steinman collaborators such as über-drummer Max Weinberg and keyboardist Roy Bittan, both from Springsteen's E Street Band.
If you are interested, the movie in itself is awesome if you like action movies, and the music is a highly integrated part of the movie. You can find more info on
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088194/
and a torrent download at

Sadly, as far as I know, the movie is no longer availbale on DVD.
But I'm getting away from the subject... Last night on Swedish television show "Talang 2007" (kinda of like American Idol), 11-year old Mimmi Sandén gave us her interpretation of "Tonight is what it means to be young" from the movie, as well as the Bonnie Tyler song "Holding Out For A Hero".
The reviewer in Dagens Nyheter said "hopefully Mimmi's parents realize that the most appropriate summer job for their daughter is to go on tour with Meat Loaf", which I guess is praise enough.
You can check out her version here:

Not bad for an 11-year old kid, that's for sure! But honestly though, the original soundtrack is much better...
