When they went into the studio to make Pyromania, Def Leppard were just another meat and potatoes rock band with two flop albums and a silly name.

But it took a while for America to get to the heart of Meat Loaf's rock musical, which ultimately put some much-needed body fluids back into rock ‘n' roll. Here were seven turbo-charged songs - nay, arias - about things that made sense to anyone who'd ever lived through prom night.
