    I bought this album as an 8-track when it first came out. I was 15. I wore out that 8-track, along with the two after that, as well as three cassette versions. It was my first CD purchase when CDs arrived, and now I have it both in my cloud and in my favorites on Spotify.
    Even when I now have my grandchildren in the car and listen to it I am transported back to my 15 year old self, feeling again all of the teenage angst and dreams which this album captured. And I’m okay with that.

    I was lost 'til you were found
    And I never knew how far down I was falling
    Before I reached the bottom
    I was cold and you were fire
    And I never knew how the pyre could be burning
    On the edge of the ice field
    And now the chilly California wind
    Is blowing down our bodies again
    And we're sinking
    Deeper and deeper in the chilly California sand
    Oh, I know you belong inside my aching heart
    And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart
    And don't you here me crying, "Oh, babe, don't go"?
    And don't you hear me screaming
    "How was I to know?"
    I'm in the middle of nowhere
    Near the end of the line
    But there's a border to somewhere waiting
    And there's a tankful of time
    Oh, give me just another moment
    To see the light of the day
    And take me to another land where
    I don't have to stay
    And I'm gonna need somebody to make me feel like you do
    And I will receive somebody with open arms, open eyes
    Open up the sky, let the planet that I love shine through
    For crying out loud, you know I love you
    For crying out loud, you know I love you
    For crying out loud, you know I love you
    I was damned and you were saved
    And I never knew how enslaved I was kneeling
    In the chains of my master
    I could laugh oh but you could cry
    And I never knew just how high I was flying
    Ah, with you right above me
    And now the chilly California wind
    Is blowing down our bodies again
    And we're sinking
    Deeper and deeper in the chilly California sand
    Oh, I know you belong inside my aching heart
    And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart

    Oh for crying out loud, you know I love you
    For crying out loud, you know I love you
    For taking in the rain when I'm feeling so dry
    For giving me the answers when I'm asking you why
    And my oh my, for that I thank you
    For taking in the sun when I'm feeling so cold
    For giving me a child when my body is old
    And don't you know for that I need you
    For coming to my room when you know I'm alone
    For finding me a highway, for driving me home
    And you gotta know for that I serve you
    For pulling me away when I'm starting to fall
    For revving me up when I'm starting to stall
    And all in all for that I want you
    For taking and for giving and for playing the game
    For praying for my future in the days that remain
    Oh Lord, for that I hold you
    Oh, but most of all
    For crying out loud for that I love you

    Bat Out of Hell, Paradise and Two out of three are sensational songs, Heaven Can Wait is a personal favorite, but FCOL is Steinman and Meatloaf's magnum opus. It's just monumental. The writing, the orchestration, the voice. The buildup, the ending. The words. The voice. Easily one of the best rock songs ever made.

    there is no video version of this one. There is an live version from 2012 , but already then his voice wasn't up for this song. And as he said in the performance, last time he sung it live was 1979 or something like that. Because it demands so much of his voice and energy. So it drained him...And this is the best version so far...And he crashed after nearly all his live performances.

      Many Steinman songs had overtly sexual lyrics. He did it intentionally and refers to it as a boner line in the documentary clip for this song which is available on UA-cam. You probably wont want to listen to "Surfs Up" again if you were offended.
      Unless you thought it was a fat reference in which case you are welcome and I recommend the "Bad For Good" Jim Steinman album version which is actually sang by Rory Dodd who is one of the most underrated backing singers in history, mainly due to lack of duo credit on Total Eclipse of The Heart.. :)

    Great reaction! Thank you for checking out this incredible but rarely-reacted to track. Meat certainly did put 200% into every performance. Jim Steinman said that, although it doesn't show up on film, the amount of steam that would be coming up from Meat's body when he was on stage was like the steam coming up out of the New York subway system, he'd just be generating that much heat.
    I was lucky to see him in concert eight times, and each time was a two-and-a-half hour, non-stop, epic emotional rollercoaster that left me physically and mentally drained. At time time I was in my mid-teens to mid-twenties, he was mid-fifties to mid-sixties, and I'd need a week to recover from one concert!

    Harri, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Meat Loaf passed away, Jan 20, 2022, of Covid 19 complications. He was 74 at the time. He had been in poor health since about 2003, suffering from Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, asthma, a Spinal fusion, and many other health issues. Despite requiring a cane and wheelchair for mobility, he continued to perform. In 2019, he fell off a stage, and broke his clavicle. He retired soon afterwards, as his body just could not take any more punishment.

    The album begins with Bat Out of Hell. A song about escaping. very fast and crazily, without any pause with great intensity.
    For crying out loud (the final song the last song on the album), he’s beaten down, he’s crawling back to her.
    Like Bruce Springsteen sang in Cautious Man, a song about doubt and wanting to leave leave it all behind. He’s in bed next to his sleeping wife:
    He got dressed in the moonlight and down to the highway he strode
    When he got there he didn't find nothing but road

    Meat Loaf/Jim Steinman's best song. Also, they both said so...

    I have been hounding a hand full of reactors for a few years now trying to expose them to this song.... For some reason it gets lost among all of the other hits on this album but It's one of my favorites. You really get to hear all the different personalities of his voice in this. Whoever it was that finally got it on here... THANK YOU!!!

    One helluva voice is all I can say. He's the most emotional, passionate singer I've ever heard outside of Big O. His voice was even more powerful than Big O was. This is one my favorite all time songs and do I ever love and miss this guy. And even with this powerful singing voice he had such a gentle speaking voice that you simply do not expect out of such a big man. They'll never be another Meatloaf.

    Ive followed this man since bat came out when i was just seven years old...it turned into a lifelong passion that even the great mans desth cannot stop. Thankfully i wss lucky enough to have seen him seven times since then and what a journey. The only thing that would have tooped it for me was to have seen jim Steinman too.... The most underrated and in my opinion unsurpassed lyricist there has ever been. The whole thing being his vision,.. combine him and meat loaf and... Well, there are not enough words... Thank you miss blondie from an englishman who shall forecer have Jim and meat in my heart...

THe critics hated the album. Meat loaf is not in the Rock in Roll Hall of Fame. Most people uneder the age of 35 never heard of him so yes its an uderated classic.

    Jim Steinman was the modern time Wagner and luckily found Meat to express his songs to the whole world.
    Their combination was just pure art! When it comes to the vocal skills, I have never seen a cover which comes even close to Meat. Hands he was by far the best rock opera singer of all time.
