| I think Bonnie is on board to give a bit of continuity to songs that might come in the Bat Musical that are sung by a female. Some of Jim's songs were intended to be sung by a female and not a male. Meat took them because they were good songs. Interesting to see what the forum thinks of which songs from Bat 1 & 2 that would work if a woman was singing them. My choice would be 2 out of 3, and guess what Bonnie has recorded that song with a few words changed. > > I disagree with the statement at the end of the post.
