    Meat Loaf, Paradise by the dashboard light, 1977

    The duet by Meat Loaf with Ellen Foley in "Paradise by the dashboard light" is big funny cinema. The expulsion from paradise. Girl: Will you love me forever? Boy: Let me sleep on it. Girl: Before we go any further, do you love me? Boy: I'll give you an answer in the morning..... And finally in the usual end after some years: Boy: ...if i gotta spend another minute with you i don't think that i can really survive. Praying for the end of time, so i can end my time with you....

    Is this Jürgen Fritz who tries to clean his interproximal spaces with a razor blade?

    Best regards!

    Apparently Jürgen Fritz outlived all his dudes after so many Russian Roulettes. But this was his last Triumvirat record. Triumvirat? In fact this was a solo LP. Old loves die hard...

    I only own one album from them, Illusions on a Double Dimple, that I've bought in my youth right after it's publication. It's quite a nice album, but sorry, not a trace of humour on it.

    Best regards!

    I have to stand corrected. Indeed there's some humour or irony at least with that Illusions on a Double Dimple album of 1974. The German trio Triumvirat often was considered ELP wannabees or even clones, mostly due to the keyboardist's sound and virtuosity. With this in mind, pleas have a close look at track B5 :

    I don't know if this belongs in "humor" or in "rap/crap" , but whatever it is,
    it's Rapture

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHCd...dSZbvftF1H-f8I

    Go out to the parking lot
    And you get in your car and you drive real far
    And you drive all night and then you see a light
    And it comes right down and lands on the ground
    And out comes a man from Mars
    And you try to run but he's got a gun
    And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
    And then you're in the man from Mars
    You go out at night, eatin' cars
    You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
    Mercury's and Subaru's
    And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars
    Then, when there's no more cars
    You go out at night and eat up bars where the people meet
    Face to face, dance cheek to cheek
    One to one, man to man
    Dance toe too toe
    Don't move to slow, 'cause the man from Mars
    Is through with cars, he's eatin' bars
    Yeah, wall to wall, door to door, hall to hall
    He's gonna eat 'em all
    Rapture, be pure
    Take a tour, through the sewer
    Don't strain your brain, paint a train
    You'll be singin' in the rain
    I said don't stop, to punk rock
    Well now you see what you wanna be
    Just have your party on TV
    'Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars when the TV's on
    And now he's gone back up to space
    Where he won't have a hassle with the human race
    And you hip-hop, and you don't stop
    Just blast off, sure shot
    'Cause the man from Mars stopped eatin' cars and eatin' bars
    And now he only eats guitars, get up!
    Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
