Can't you hear the horns blaring out the riffs from "Eye of the Tiger" and "Jump"? Those will probably work, in a crazed way. And "Love Cats" is halfway there already.

This has no defenders here? I keep reading rave reviews.

What about Pat Boone's In a Metal Mood?

William Shatner recently released a disc with a combination of covers and originals co-written by Ben Folds, but his speak-song style didn’t quite hit the mark.

and WTF is meant by this? what mark were they expected to hit?

It meant: nobody bought it.

eight years pass...

I'm listening to "In a Metal Mood" for the first time. This sounds like "song poems"! You know, like Rodd Keith, or etc.

Oh and p.s. that led me to this weird Wikipedia tidbit:

But among the professionals paid to record these songs, the "Mozart" of the song poem genre is often said to be Rodd Keith. Several compilations of his made-for-hire song poem recordings have been released on CD with comments by his son, avant-garde saxophonist Ellery Eskelin.

Rodd Keith is the father of Ellery Eskelin?!
