Admit it! You thought that one up first, and brought the other ones in as a cross between warm-up acts and misdirection!
I’d love to claim that was true, but the sad fact of it is that I thought of the Meat Loaf one several years ago, and only thought of Joni Mitcheck a couple of days ago after I’d posted the first few of these.
Anyway, Joni’s album completes the series. I will probably put them all together in a single post, to make them easier to link to, before starting on the next thing.
