wanted to make the same comment before had seen yours)) seems this is indeed so - very underrated song, and the movie is one of my favourite - have seen it dozens of times and will repeat again.
How this wasn't Number 1 worldwide is beyong me. It's as good as Total Exclipse of the Heart and most of Meatloaf's best songs. Jim Steinman is a genius
@@nopuppy The musical cover version (which is a cover, as the song was written expressely for The Shadow movie) may be less underrated, but the original one here is definitely and beyond underrated.
As well as Taylor's version, it's also been sung by Pandora's Box, Barbra Streisand, and Meatloaf. It's on the Pandora's Box album called Original Sin, Welcome to the Neighbourhood by Meatloaf. I don't know where you would find the Streisand version.
I watched "The Shadow" last night here on YT, and when this started playing over the credits it blew me away! It's a pretty cool little hidden gem that also has kind of a Bond film opening feel to it.
The Shadow was one of my favorite films from the 90's. There was something very inspiring about a man who had done truly awful things and knew he could never make up for his past deeds. Despite this he kept on trying. The song is operatic, dramatic and wonderful. Wonderful vocals by Taylor Dayne.
Very well said !...I've sought Redemption for many years but am still haunted by the visions of my past deeds..and I've never had a good dream..they are all in the dark clinging and clawing at me
The og Shadow from the pulps is much better. He's an incorruptible dispenser of justice because it's needed. It's not about compensation. The emo pathos mixed with extremelly bad jokes he has in the movie is entirely antithetical to what the Shadow's supposed to be.
John Lone was damn good. Penelope Anne Miller was gorgeous. And let us not forget the late Jonathan Winters. It's a crime how underrated this movie is.
@@darronmassiah3052 Unfortunately DC doesn't own the Shadow. Most Recently Conde Nast [sp] has him licenced to Dynamite comics, although they DO licence him to DC for some cross-overs. I'm not sure who currently has the movie licence.
I agree - this song is tremendously underrated. Taylor Dayne indeed should have collaborated more with Jim Steinman. I always hit repeat endlessly whenever it comes up on my playlist.
Powerful voice. Powerful performance. Great song. Movie was underrated. To me I could watch it over and over. Like listening to this song. Very energetic
@@Lep161. Go have a listen to the whole album ( if you haven’t ) the original version is so much stronger than this, far more bombastic. Gina Taylors vocals are incredible with Ellen Foley ( Paradise by the Dashboard Light ) backing her up.
Aw!, that voice!. What a power house!!! :) Taylor never disappoints. I'm surprised that she never did a James Bond opening song :'( She was a gift to the world, that very little people wanted to open up. Great voice, Looks that could kill and a Diva Persona. What more could you ask for?. Apart from this song, Every Beat Of My Heart and I'll Be Your Shelter have to be my favs :)
she had a powergul voice here what power what ever happened to the okld taylor nafter all that plastic surgery she had such a powerful voice here what power what ever happened to the old taylor of the late 80s early 90s after all that plastic surgery
The epic magnitude of this song is extremely undervalued. When future generations discover this masterpiece, they will attribute it to the pinnacle of our civilization.
Just talking about this today 2021-September , on a Facebook group. Taylor truly deserves more props. Back when I was a kid in school and heard this I was blown away. She is just one of my fave singers in terms of females along with Whitney and Nina Simone. Another reason this movie and song is great. Tim Curry aka the LEGEND and of course the section at 3:29. My god its amazing
Alex parker this was my grandfathers favorite radio show and is still mine too. If they ever do a remake i hope the villain is the woman from the episode the temple bells of neban.
A great cover of the Jim Steinman (singer & song writer) track "Original Sin", that was on the Pandora's Box (all female band) debut album. Such a strong operatic song that Taylor has pulled off excellently with her superb voice. When I had first heard Anastacia' first single, it just opened the floodgates of memories of Taylor' first singles, with that similar vocal style of Dayne' 1980s-90s pop career. I have loved Taylor Dayne' deep soulful vocal ever since I first heard her debut tracks, that blew me away as her unique vox hit the airways from the radio. Now in 2017 I can still listen to her albums and the tracks that made her a star icon to those that followed in her limelight.
actually it sounds like they reused the actual Pandoras Box backing track, reworked some minor details and just laid new lead vocals, with actualy exact same phrasing, almost copying the original singer Gina Taylor. Makes you wonder why they didnt use Gina and her original vocals. She sang it even better and laid the original phrasing.
@@sinajakelic Yes it does sound like they've done that to this, so I agree with you on that. Maybe not released with Gina due to copyright issues. Though you know Jim Steinman, he is always reusing songs in whole or part with different singers.
@@TATICMOOR I agree but this is perhaps only time he reused the instrumental instead of recording a whole new version. Anyway, it is a fantastic song and both singers are amazing, though personally I like Gina little better :) always nice to chat about stein-man :) have a nice day sir
The movie suffers from over-expectations. I think it happens to remain pretty true to the whole concept of who The Shadow is. And this song is criminally underrated.
The lyrics, the piano, the backup singers, percussion and pacing of the song...this has Meatloaf's creative and directing hand all over it. And it is good.
It has the distinctive sound of its songwriter, Jim Steinman. Check out the first iteration of this song on the Original Sin album by his studio group Pandora's Box. And look up all the songs he did for singers like Meat Loaf, Bonnie Tyler and Sisters of Mercy.
It took me until last week to watch this hidden gem. I'm in love. It might fetaure my favourite performance by Alec Baldwin by far, but Tim Curry and Ian McKellan are so much fun in this, Penelope Ann Miller is just lovely as Margo Lane, the music and this song is spellbinding. A veyr entertianing comic book film, so much that I am getting into The Shadow comics as a result.

Tunes just gangsta. Taylor to me was always that diva that never got the love she deserved. Sure she was massive but she don't have that status I think she deserves. I am a hip hop fan , house , dubstep etc and I can see when someone is amazing. This woman is epic. Her vocals and harmonies are just immense. Love for Ya Taylor. You are a bad gyal.
I like this movie in a "good bad movie" way. I will say that this movie is a little below Tim Burton's 89 Batman. First off, there is slightly more star power for the time. Jack Nicholson, Jack Palance, Micheal Keaton, Pat Hingle and Kim Basinger. The Shadow has some notable stars as well but the material the actors were given was not as good as in Burton's flick. Overall... I would argue that Batman is a step up but the Shadow is somewhat close behind. The trend around that time was oddly enough a proto-Marvel type Superhero movie... Dick Tracy, Phantom etc. So I cant fault them for making it, just wish it was a bit more Well acted as Alec baldwin seems like hes got the "cool kid in the highschool play" mentality. just a bit. like hes a bit too cool for the role but it was serviceable. I will also say kudos to The Shadow for having two amazing actors in it... Ian Macellan and Tim Curry
@@LadyGreyBlack I hate admitting this: but this was one of the few movies with Tim C that I didn't like him in cause he was too annoying even with trying to be campy about it. IMO, he wasn't a very convincing villain in this one either.
I wouldn't be surprised if they release a 20th Anniversary Edition next year, I saw this in the cinema back in 1994 and saw it at least 3 times... I know some fans don't consider it to be a faithful adaptation of the character but they came pretty close!!!
Taylor Dayne definitely has a her own fire Brewing up inside of her. And it explodes in a fire extravaganza on stage. People can see this people see the genuine Taylor Dayne she is absolutely gorgeous and those mesmerizing eyes and that beautiful body just tells the whole damn story when she sings it. Love you Taylor Dayne keep up the good work. God bless you girl
....this is truly GENIUS....on EVERY LEVEL...i too have to ASK...WHY DIDN'T SHE BECOME A HUGE SUPERSTAR WITH THIS....WHY DIDN'T THE MOVIE BECOME A HUGE BLOCKBUSTER HIT....WHY....
This song is a a theatrical and vocal masterpiece, and criminally underrated.
Go get a hearing check! Lol
@@mortisha6ful ROFL He can hear very well (and so do we). You, on the other hand, are completely tone deaf. LMFAO

It’s a Jim Steinman song, so you know it’s gonna rock.
Yes, it shouldn't stay in the shadow...
I wish we could still have music like this
How this wasn't Number 1 worldwide is beyong me. It's as good as Total Exclipse of the Heart and most of Meatloaf's best songs. Jim Steinman is a genius
Absolutely agree bro!
Better Than anything Taylor Swift Ever Did.
Jim Steinman *was* a genius.
He's gone now.
2024. Suddenly remember this song. Amazing song. Amazing Taylor Dayne.
It's a masterpiece. Never before or since has a woman been this powerful on a stage.
Jim Steinman's most underrated song, featured in one of the most underrated movies of the 90s. Rest in Peace, Brother Jim.
Oh... I hadn't heard.
...As you said.
Too True
To this day I love this movie for this song 💓💓💓
Underrated: yes to the song, no to the movie - which personally I like a lot, but it’s objectively mediocre.
@@nopuppy The musical cover version (which is a cover, as the song was written expressely for The Shadow movie) may be less underrated, but the original one here is definitely and beyond underrated.

Philip Watson This sat at the bottom of the uk charts for a time back in the mid 90's. Not sure exactly, too long ago 🤔
@@gothicpagan.666 It's also in the German musical Tanz Der Vampires (Dance with the Vampires)
@@kiarachern5539 That show's been done in Japan as well.
One of the best songs of the 20th century in my opinion. Heavily inspired by "Something's gotten hold of my heart" (Gene Pitney)
R.I.P. Jim Steinman. You truly were one in a million, sir.
I'd happily listen if we could find another 7000 like Jim
I watched "The Shadow" last night here on YT, and when this started playing over the credits it blew me away! It's a pretty cool little hidden gem that also has kind of a Bond film opening feel to it.
Rip Jim Steinman. One of the best producers 🙏hands Down.
Jim Steinman was one of the greatest songwriters in music industry.
This film is definitely underrated.
This movie needs an effective reboot with a great studio!
this SONG is underrated!!! such a dramatic tune!!!
mark blizzard
Definitely keep it in 1930s to 1940s.
When they tried updating the movie adaptation of the Green Hornet, it fell flat.
Keep in the 40s.
If not for the look. I love that 1940s america style.
Felix Blackwood Agreed! This and The Phantom are both underrated man 😎
Thank you, Jim Steinman for the great tune!!!! RIP!!!
How the HELL did this not end up an #1 hit???
I know right
@@otisroseboro2837 This was '94. Before the super hero 'craze' really took off.

This movie and her are criminally underrated.
This song is awesome! The Shadow is such a cool movie.
god when she gets to that part where she says she wants a part of the night, chills every single time
One of the best title tracks from any movie and I’m a movie fanatic.
This is just such a great record and to be honest Taylor is a legend for me.
John Lone was damn good. Penelope Anne Miller was gorgeous. And let us not forget the late Jonathan Winters. It's a crime how underrated this movie is.
Taylor Dayne and Jim Steinman...incredible combination
even when I was younger could never understand why this wasn't a hit
Taylor Dayne is LEGEND.
Thankfully there are still people like us who can appreciate this masterpiece
underated movie
Best version of this song ever
period
nuff said
Its well past tIme for THE SHADOW to RETURN...
The Shadow needs a reboot, then place it in the DCEU
DAMN RIGHT
Matthew Kealey not if Zack Snyder directs it. I think he is the right man for the job. He dose his own shut and dose not take shut from anyone
Yes! With Michael Fassbender as the Shadow.

Hard To Believe It's Been 30 Years Since This Song & The Movie Came Out,Time Goes By
Powerful voice. Powerful performance. Great song. Movie was underrated. To me I could watch it over and over. Like listening to this song. Very energetic
I remember watching this movie with my sister and parents. Still a great movie to watch. Taylor Dayne nailed this song wonderfully with passion.
Classic movie, classic song ! The sun is shining. But the ice is slippery. :)
Should’ve been a worldwide mega hit. Wish she’d done an entire album with Jim Steinman.

I used to watch the shadow on HBO as a kid. This brings back so many memories
Beautiful singer and voice. I loved this song and movie as a kid.
The soundtrack for this film was easily underrated
The epic magnitude of this song is extremely undervalued. When future generations discover this masterpiece, they will attribute it to the pinnacle of our civilization.

Lyrics-
I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking
And I'm gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin
You can dance forever
You've got a fire in your feet
But will it ever be enough
You know that it'll never be enough
You can fly and never land
And never need to sleep
But will it ever be enough
You know that it'll never be enough
It's not enough to make the nighmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
And who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men today
It's a city of shadow
It's a city of light
It's a city of secrets
It's a city of pride
It'll all be over now
All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
All I needed was a spot in the light
It never had to get so dark
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
I've been looking for the ultimate crime
Infinite victims, infinitesimal time
And I'm so, so very guilty for no reason no rhyme
So now I'm just looking and I'm killing some time
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime
You can lose yourself in pleasure
Till your body's goin numb
But will it ever be enough
You know that it'll never be enough
It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
And who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men today
It's a city of shadow
It's a city of pride
It'll all be over now
All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking
And I'm gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin
I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking
And I'm gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin
I'm applying for a license to thrill
Going out on the edge, moving in for the kill
And they'll be hell to pay someday
Put it all on the bill
'Cause we'll always be paying and paying until
We're beyond expiration with a license to thrill
I've been looking for an original sin
Thanks for that, the lyrics on UA-cam music are all fucked up
👍Sanks.
This song is an absolute blast!!!
dang, her powerful voice is giving me chills, it's just so spectacular
she still has those excellent vocals
GREAT movie. Great song, too. I could have heard it on a Bond film, too (in fact the first time I heard it I was like, "Is that Shirley Bassey?").
Happy 30th anniversary of the movie of The Shadow (1994)
Tunes just gangsta.
Taylor to me was always that diva that never got the love she deserved. Sure she was massive but she don't have that status I think she deserves.
I am a hip hop fan , house , dubstep etc and I can see when someone is amazing. This woman is epic. Her vocals and harmonies are just immense.
Love for Ya Taylor. You are a bad gyal.
Unfortunately she got overshadowed by other female singers at the time
Look into Dana Jean Phoenix. She is just as good. I'd also suggest Night Flight Orchestra if you want that raw power 80s and 90s pop had.
Tell me I'm the only one Taylor

villain in this one either.
Except the ‘89 Batman isn’t underrated at all - quite the opposite, actually.

This is an epic song!!
I use to listen to rebroadcast of The Shadow radio program when I was a kid, so I loved this movie when it came out.
her voice still remains the same after all these years .Nothing more than an amazing VOICE.
Thank you Taylor, I love your version of this song the best. ❤

I just finished watching this movie on cinemax network & heard this song again takes me back to my childhood love this song & video classic

I am a big fan of the Pandoras Box version, but yeah this rocks. Well done Taylor Dayne, a great tribute to one of the gods of rock.
It's the one song that Meat Loaf couldn't do better. Pandora's Box and Taylor Dayne really killed it!
Love this song & video classic
I loved this movie so much when I was younger. And this song is purely epic
....this is truly GENIUS....on EVERY LEVEL...i too have to ASK...WHY DIDN'T SHE BECOME A HUGE SUPERSTAR WITH THIS....WHY DIDN'T THE MOVIE BECOME A HUGE BLOCKBUSTER HIT....WHY....
