Another one for the library...

Yet another song filed away under the heading "I like this but I don't know why I like this"

Its another Jim Steinman story song and his lyrics are just perfectly balanced, each word crafted and sculpted into place in the verse, not one extraneous word, nothing out of place, the story told in an absolute minimum of effort but with the passion and tragedy squeezed out of every vein in it.

"She used her body just like a bandage,
she used my body just like a wound"

Wonderful stuff

Best played loud - LOUD
