The entire album is a freaking masterpiece!!! Jim Steinman lyrics and Meatloaf singing. What a combination.
Do not forget the third piece of the triumvirate, the only one willing to produce/record the album, and ended up also as the lead guitarist on it. Without him, BOOH would not of happened.
Lyrics my arse he wrote produced the whole album .
@@MARTIN-bd7gm Sorry Martin Todd produced the first BOOH, AND he funded the entire album when the RCA deal fell through. Steinman produced BOOH2
who composed the music?
@@nem447 the god jim steinman
"My mom is watching..." I howled with laughter when you said this.
Meat Loaf told a story about this song.... his daughter came home from school (most likely Jr. High) and told him that they played this song in Sex Ed as an example of what could happen... he did not know if he should be worried... or proud....
I had a college professor play Life is a Lemon to demonstrate a pessimistic tendency to view the world, and I lost my shit. Unfortunately, I was the only student in the room (aside from a 40+ year old woman) to know who it was.
Dude... thats effing powerful. 100 % accurate too.
❤
It was my anthem in the last months of a very unsuccessful marriage.
GREAT STORY!!
Years ago, I had a co-worker with a teenage son who had his first serious girlfriend. The son was a good student, headed to college and a career as a lawyer, doctor, MBA, or similar. The girlfriend wanted them to drop out of high school, run away and get married, and get whatever jobs they could get to survive. And the son was considering it.
So I made a copy of "Paradise" and gave it to my coworker. Told him to make his son listen to it, no matter what. He had never heard of it, so I watched while he listened to it for the first time. His reactions will live with me forever.
He made his son listen to it - and the son and girlfriend broke up soon after. He's a successful lawyer with a wife and kids now.
Meat Loaf saved a young man's future in 8 minutes. RIP and THANK YOU.
Meat Loaf wasn't just an incredible singer, he was an excellent actor as well. His voice will live on in history and our hearts.
Fight Club!
He did a concert at Jones Beach Theater and every time they started to play a song the audience sang their songs to them. He stood there with his hands on his hips in surprise. It made him realize that he was very much loved.
That is one of the sweetest things I've ever heard. I'm glad his legions of fans could give back a little.
RIP to Meatloaf. Musician of a whole other level
Best description of his music I've heard, operatic rock.
I feel as if a part of my youth died today with the passing of this wonderful entertainer and genuine human being. Marvin Lee Aday AKA Meatloaf your musical performances will live on! Thanks for the memories.
Jim Steinman could write an epic three part opera in two minutes; Meatloaf could lift it onto a single 7 inch record.
Most underated comment here
And, he did his own album, Rock and Roll Dreams Come True, or something like that.
The problem with that lyric page was that it missed that both Foley and Meatloaf were singing that they were praying for the end of time. They both remembered that night with nostalgia, but both were desperate for the marriage to end in the only way their promises and vows would permit.
The MET had offered him something like 60k/yr to train and do opera for them, some people don't know that. He was an amazingly talented individual and his music will keep his memory alive for many generations to come
Bat Out of Hell (1977) is still one of the all time best selling albums EVER and rarely been out of the UK top 100 and is back on its way to number 1 in the UK charts. .. RIP Meat Loaf ♥
I'm actually getting a kick out of watching all these younger people discover for the first time in their lives that music actually has emotion
Yeah, anything worth listening to does.
"He was on Rocky Horror Picture Show, did you guys know that?"
Eddie!!!!!!
I spit up coffee from my nose just now when I heard you as that! Also, at MANY theaters around the country when RHPS gained cult status, they'd play Paradise By the Dashboard Light as one of the preamble lead-in videos to each showing. I'm reaching waaaaayyyy back to the very early 80's there, but good times, good times!
Here in Hawaii when Richardson's Theatre was still in operation, every Halloween they would do RHPS and most years they had this guy doing Eddie who vocally was a near dead ringer for Meat. The way he got the crowd rockin at Sweet Patootie would bring down the house.
Fight club also..
There was a theatre on Long Island just across the city line where this was done as well. Seems like only yesterday as well as a very very long time ago, both at the same time.
This song perfectly captures the teen experience. All hormones for the guy and a girl who confuses love and lust. Then when they both get what they think they want….well, reality hits. And the end when they look back and remember how it was “so much better than it is today”
funny that when you get what you wanted and are "satisfied", then your ready to kick your partner out of the car/bed whatever....your senses can never give you complete satisfaction...only a brief taste...they can never be fully satsified...as the Stones said many, many years ago "I can't get no SATISFACTION"
They got what they thought they wanted. In reality the girl pressed for a promise of forever by using sex. The boy lies and gives in to get what he wants. Unfortunately that kind of behavior isn't limited to the young but it is perfectly captured in steinman's lyrics.
This has to be the absolute best reaction video that I've ever seen. Got a good belly laugh or three out of this. Thank you very much 😂
My pleasure. 😊🤘🥳
This was my times “put a ring on it”!!!!!!!
Australia was the first country to embrace 'Bat Out Of Hell', and it is still the biggest selling album in Aussie chart history, selling nearly three times as many copies as AC/DCs 'Back In Black'.
There is not a day that goes by on Australian radio where one of these songs isn't played.
Wow you should be proud of you country, that's awesome!
I saw Meat Loaf in 1994 at Wembley Arena, London - I'd only heard Meat Loaf by CD prior to seeing him live and didn't realise what I was missing. I was sitting front row he opened with the stage blacked out with just his voice to "I'll Do Anything For Love" and as soon as he belted out the first few words, the lights beamed on him sitting at the piano and anyone who's ever seen Meat Loaf live will tell you just how booming and powerful his voice is - truly magical unlike any other voice you've ever heard something the recorded media just can't recreate.
Totally agree. This was the very first piece of music I ever owned (the 45, remember those?). I finally got to see him live in a small outdoor venue in Dallas 1995ish.
@@mistyhaney5565 Thanks for sharing x
He burned out an amp once with his voice...
Consider that nobody but Meat Loaf even attempts to sing his songs. That's because they know they can't even begin to do them justice. Jim Steinman wrote for Meat Loaf, and knew what he could do.
Now the angels in heaven are rockin' out....
This is such a lovely and beautiful tribute.
I was 13 years old, back in 1978 when this song was a number 1 hit here in the Netherlands and as a 13 year old, I was screaming this song around the house (farm). What did I know what this song is about? I didn't speak any English at that time. It was the music, the atmosphere. What did I know about 2 16 year olds having their "exitment" on the bench of a car, but I loved the song, I loved the music. It turned out that Bat out off Hell was the first ever album I owned. i wanted it so bad and got it for my birthday.
It is often said, the music you love on your 13th will be important for your music choice later in live, so in that way, it isn't strange that I'm a huge Nightwishfan, now I'm 56. Thank you so much for this.
The song was written by Jim Steinman, who did also write songs for Ellen Foley and Bonnie Tyler, who also had top10 hits in the Netherlands. Paradise by the Dashboardlight is originally sung by Meatloaf (Lee Marvin Aday) and Ellen Foley, but in the clip ip and also in live performances, you see Carla Devito. Carla can sing well, but doesn't have the exellent voice of Ellen Foley. Both, Meatloaf and Carla are also actors. You can see that in the perfect way they act this song in the videoclip.
Thank you so much for reacting to the song, that turned out to be hugely important in my music taste for the rest of my life.
Thank you for your lovely comment. 😊💖 Hope to see you TONIGHT: ua-cam.com/video/Bzan_Nmd1wQ/v-deo.html
When he ended concerts with 20 minute versions of Paradise....so amazing!
There will never be another Meat Loaf and what a legacy he has left behind.
RIP Meat Loaf you will be missed 🕊🙏💟
One of the best parts is the very end of the song and he's singing over and over...."Long ago and far away, it was so much better than it is today" as she sings over and over, "It never felt so good it never felt so right, we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife" as they both look back sadly on the way it used to be.
This is a “must play” at wedding dances since the year it came out. Girls on one side of the dance floor and guys on the other. It’s the best part of any wedding by far. 😂😂
On the album the female voice is Ellen Foley.
Karla DeVito was the female vocals on tour for the album
The video is the album track over the live concert footage.
the entire album is fantastic. One of the best road trip albums of all time.
I'm still confused, who is the woman singing on this performance? I absolutely love her voice. I know theres different singers but this womans voice is terrific
@@mamb70 Its Ellen Foley's voice. Karla Devito is the person physically in the video (not her voice). Live her voice is incredibly close to Ellen's.
mmm. Love Karla, but Ellen's voice is clearly different. They are both wonderful, but not the same.
@@mamb70 It is Eilen Foley's voice.
AND Foley did her vocals in one take.
Saw him perform here in Michigan back in 1978, Pine Knob Amphitheatre. Was right up front and astounded by the sheer power of his voice. An incredible talent ...
What a great memory
Being an old bugger I remember buying the original 'Bat out of Hell' album on LP when it came out in ther late 70's, was a great album and has lasted over the time
I played that album so much. I remember every song. A fantastic “opera”. One of my all-time favorites.
I would argue that “Bat out of Hell” is a perfect album
I still have it!!!!
Ditto.
You're not old.
This is REALLY one of my favorite reactions ever. The people who told you to not read the lyrics beforehand are my second favorite people ever.
Absolutely great rock opera in 8 minutes and 4 acts.
It's about two 17-year-olds who are making out in a parked car by the lake ('glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife' = they are working up a sweat). She demands he marry her before she goes all the way with him. They go back and forth (he says he will tell her in the morning if he loves her, after the act is done) but she holds out and he gives in to her demands. It jumps to years later when they regret their youthful impulsiveness. You can tell Meat Loaf had a theatrical background! He was very good at putting on a show! He was also in a lot of movies: Fight Club, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Wayne's World, Roadie, etc.)
I can’t believe that anyone hasn’t heard of Meatloaf. This album came out when I was 3 but was still a beat selling album when I was a teenager. That’s some staying power!!!
It talkes patients to listen through but it is so worth it! So much fun, I love it!
Absolutely the greatest rock opera ever
Meatloaf was my favorite singer of everyone I've ever listened to. I always wanted to see him live but that chance never came. His music, his acting, he was the consummate professional. He even went ghost hunting with the guys from Ghost Adventures. Meat
Loaf is his nickname from his father.
Their voices are so well controlled and articulated you don't really need to read the lyrics. Easy to understand without losing anything musically.
I've seen him and this performance in concert, It was AWESOME!!!
This is an experience that you will enjoy going through. Remember what the song is about. Sure we all experienced this in our youth
I really look forward to seeing this when the lag problems are corrected.
I just close my eyes and go along with it.
Being live... it won't happen.
Still waiting...lol
And cut about 20 mons for you tube..
I agreed
Maggie - so love your reaction. I had the great good fortune to have seen him live, both at a huge stadium and a small club, about 100 people. He put the same energy into the show regardless of the size of the crowd. The small club show was only supposed to be 90 minutes. When the show was supposed to end, he looked at the owner and said 'I hope you are up for a late night'. He sang all of Bat Out of Hell in order. The only rock performer that was his equal was Freddie Mercury. They both put their all into the stage performance. RIP to a legend
Thank you for your lovely comment! 😊💖 Hope to see you TONIGHT: ua-cam.com/video/Bzan_Nmd1wQ/v-deo.html
I searched Meat Loaf and found this! I love seeing young people find the great artists from my younger days! Was 19 young and this music takes me back! The greats!! ❤️
Ellen Foley who played on original Night Court for first year, was singer of the female part in album for Paradise by Dashboard lights
In the 60's and 70's, my era, making out in the front seat of a car was a right of passage for most teenagers. Front seat until things got steamy then back seat to consummate the union. As for Paradise by the Dash Board light that is all you could see when parked in a dark spot and the only lights were those of the instruments on the dash of the car that illuminated you and the object of your desire. Many a child was conceived that way and many like myself found out 5 decades later that they had a child from one of those episodes who they had never met. Takes me back years and his songs left a lasting impression on most of the youth of those days.
Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf RIP! Thank you for leaving behind a glorious legacy of music! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Heaven is rockin' now!
I’m so glad I got to see him live when he came to Toronto he was amazing.
"For Crying Out Loud" is probably the most demanding Meat Loaf song to sing. Your reaction to that would be interesting.
You had my reaction when I was 18 and my best friend first played the record for me. A great performance. Everybody hears ‘70’s and thinks disco but we had amazing rock and metal. Thanks for your reaction
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
He never got the recognition he deserves
Love your reaction!!! I’ve always loved this song. Of course 7 year old me didn’t understand much, but loved it even then.
👍☺️🎵
RIP Meatloaf. This was fun Maggie! Thank you.
Meatloaf's appearance in the movie Bloodrayne fulfilled all my fantasy film dreams
Saw him perform this live at a small theatre ,it was amazing , I was 16 when the song came out.
LMAO... So much fun watching you experience this for the first time❣
This and Night Moves are the best car sex songs of all time. Have you heard the entire album? Bat Outta Hell is basically Musical Theatre Nerds do Rock. It is one of the top 10 rock albums of all time. The title track is absolutely epic. Not a single bad song on that album.
Not surprising that Meat Loaf went on to have an acting career given his theatrical concert performances. And after watching this video, we may start calling you Laggy Maggie going forward :)
Omg, Meatloaf in the Rocky Horror picture show movie??? Just a cameo really, but WHAT an impact :D
Yes, I know Marvin Lee Aday passed from COVID-19. My Aunt Nurse & my Mom accountant retired & both passed COVID-19. too. Thanks for Meat Loaf Music he was loved for his Acting & Singing... Now, Meat Loaf passed & Singing in Heaven that's much Bigger then Earth. Marvin is having fun NOT in pain No More. We Love you Meat Loaf Keep ROCKING On.
⚡😊👍🇺🇲⚡
He was an actor before he became a singer
I always thought the best example of his voice was “ For crying out loud “. Goosebumps every single time
Such a fun review! Haha. Can you imagine being a a junior in High School when this song came out? 😀
I feel so lucky enough to of seen him live in concert on 2 different occasions , absolutely amazing what a legend
Bat Out of Hell has always been a family roadtrip favourite for my kids and I. Lots of awesome sing-a-longs.
I bought the vinyl in 1975. Give or take a year. In the last 45yrs I've had the 8 track, cassette, and now the disc. I drove 400 miles today and the disc played the entire time. The cars in the garage with the disc waiting for my next long
I am watching this 5 months after your post, so you might not see this but here's a fun fact: Meatloaf was actually trained as an OPERA singer before his rock n roll life took off!! 😉 🥰 my friends and I say Paradise by the Dashboard Lights should be the national anthem for kids sex education classes! LOL ❤
Whenever this was played at a wedding reception, my wife and I would act it out (sans the racier physical bits, kids around you know) and usually ended up clearing the dance floor. We have so many happy memories of just letting go to the moment and having a hell of a good time. Jim Steinman was born to write these songs and Meat Loaf was born to sing them. RIP Jim, Meat Loaf, and Phil.
This song at a wedding is only slightly better than Delilah by Tom Jones 😅
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you at the Premiere of my new reaction video to NIGHTWISH tomorrow?
Meatloaf, according to his own words, was an actor first. He loved playing different characters. He loved getting into the mind of each character he played, picking them apart, seeing what made them tick, then giving them to people. The music was almost a side effect of those characters, and you can see that in each of the performances he gives. Maggie, you said that this performance was SO different from " I Would Do Anything For Love ", and you're right, it is. The difference is that they are two different, distinct characters who are singing those songs. That is why we get the different styles, the very different vocals, and a different feel in each of them. Are there similarities? Sure. It's performed by the same person, regardless of him playing different people very well, but there are still major, noticeable differences in the characters. And that is what set Meatloaf apart from other musicians, both of his own era and today, IMO.
Oh, btw, which I'm sure you've heard by now, the recording of this was absolute crap. The video portion of it, at least. Audio was fine, which is what kept me watching. I think that you're running out of storage space on your hard drive and that's causing issues with your recordings. I could be wrong, of course. It's been known to happen.
took the words right out of my mouth is another great tune
Loved your reaction to this great song and even greater performance! Meatloaf would always be sure to express how much he appreciated his fans and, as you can see, ALWAYS gave a great performance. I think this song & video really showcases the performance aspect. The back and forth with the female voice, as well as the repeating chorus lines, makes makes this feel almost like a Broadway musical
Love this song 🎧 but my fav is “2 out of 3 ain’t bad” it just showcases his spectacular voice. Love your reactions 😊 much love ❤️ from AZ 🌵
Thank you for your lovely comment! 😊💖 Hope to see you TONIGHT: ua-cam.com/video/Bzan_Nmd1wQ/v-deo.html
Keep in mind, this was released late-70s, but the story begins in the late-50s as a pair of teenagers park by the lake for their First Time together. The girl stops him to make her demand, he wants to 'finish' and get back to her with the answer, but she insists he make a decision. He's so caught up in his hormones that he finally relents and agrees. Transition then to the late-70s again as the unhappily married couple they became, with them "praying for the end of time".
There is SO much cultural shift in this song, it's hard for post-boomers to grasp what's going on. Using baseball to distract in order to delay male orgasm, the problem of girls getting a 'reputation', etc.
Baseball to delay orgasm?
Surely it's all about him "getting to first base".. then second base..
And just as he's about to "get home", she says to "stop right there!"
When a guy is trying not to explode too soon, a common technique is to think about the thoroughly nonsexual subject of baseball.
5 READY !
The queen payed tribute to him
His voice is butter, and he and Karla plays this to Oscar level. One of the greatest videos EVER! Composer Jim Steinman was a genius!
It was so fun hearing your reactions! I have watched no less than 100 reaction videos to this performance and yours would definitely be one of the best if it weren’t for the completely awful freezing video. If you happened to record it separately from the live stream, I’d highly recommend swapping it. It was still really entertaining and I enjoyed your outtakes. Thanks
Best reaction ever!!
😜
@@maggiereneemusicsorry to say, it really wasn't the best. The way the video played, all stuttery, was basically unwatchable. You really should have checked it over before putting it out. This was nowhere near your usual high standard.
"I Would Do Anything For Love" was two decades after this.
Meat was an identified heldentenor - the Met tried to talk him into joining them and becoming an opera star
did you notice how many words he put in to each bar? he almost sets the bar to modern day rappers
Meat Loaf appeared in over 50 films and television shows, sometimes as himself or as characters resembling his stage persona. His film roles included Eddie in The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) and Robert Paulson in Fight Club (1999).
Our pleasure
What is "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights?" That would be you, darling! Tell me you understand this. Parking by the lake all alone with my girl and we're barely dressed. I don't know how to make that any clearer. Love ya!
Wow, you had me laughing so hard I was crying. Seriously, I had to wipe the tears from my eyes. Even thought it was a decade after this song, Meatloaf was a huge part of my teen years. He is/was an amazing performer. I want a Meatloaf tribute movie with Jack Black playing the part of Meatloaf. BTW, the female voice is Ellen Foley who stared in a season of the hit sitcom Night Court.
He was having back surgery. He had been struggling with it for a long time.
Covid was secondary, but they've made it front and center
Meat was the best. Glad you got to hear his work. The whole first album was both amazing and hilarious
Maggie, you are so much fun to listen to. Sad that the video isn't better, but I love you, and the music. I couldn't help thinking I would so love to spend an evening (traditionally it started at midnight), watching Rocky Horror Picture Show with you and your friends. It would be a total hoot!
I'm watching after the live stream was done, and the lag is still horrendous.. To the point that it's difficult to sit through, I feel I am missing out on so much of the reaction as you are usually very animated. I'm 20 mins in and am going to stop, hopefully the lag is fixed in a few days and I will try again😞
Agree. Hope she maybe redoes this like a normal reaction. The lag ruined it.
Same here, it's standing still and her comments are endless.
Sadly, unwatchable even days later.
Edit: by the way, I am listening to the whole reaction. It is just unwatchable, not unlistenable, lol!
It's like watching Max Headroom!
the video won't get better, because the lag happened on the livestream and there's no way to fix it. Her recording is what you see, and it's not possible to make it better. At least the audio is still good 🙂
Bat out of Hell.
Masterpiece.
Welcome to the Paradise by the Dashboard Light rock opera comedy with some awesome freaking singing
If you want a special and very under-rated song by Meatloaf, you should react to "For Crying Out Loud" live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
My all time favourite song. Thank you for mentioning it. You’re the only one I’ve seen. It’s poetry in music, that song.
I love it makes me cry 😢
I was singing away in work to radio and everyone was saying what’s this?! I just rolled my eyes😅😅
You can’t mention Meatloaf’s music without mentioning Jim Steinman, who was the composer, musical partner, etc. of Meatloaf.
Sadly, Jim passed away last Spring, Meat & Jim were born a little over a month apart & passed away 9 months apart.
What a brilliant musical partnership, that really brought Musical Theater mixed with Rock & Roll to a mass audience.
Rip Meatloaf
Rip Jim Steinman
There is one that's a tearjerker. 'Objects in the rear view mirror' is soo good. He's older. So good!
Meaty rip❤ you were the best thank you for all those beautifull years that you made us happy youbsaw me through good times and bad ones so u want to thank you and jim hope you are both together in heaven ❤❤
Ellen Foley went on to embrace her second talent acting ...she was on Night Court
Hey Maggie, you should definitely check out Meatloaf's song "You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth"
I can tell you that you'll definitely enjoy it
Someone told him he had Meat Loaf for brains. That is what he told David Letterman.
lol the intro made me laugh..... I'll keep watching for now :D
Meat Loaf has also sung with Pavarotti. That might be of interest to an opera singer!
The baseball analogy is not dirty, it has been around for almost as long as baseball...The levels of making out matched to the different bases and of course the home plate is perfect for each other.
And he's out at second no Safe!
Meatloaf is a genre on his own to me x
Bat Out of Hell still sells 200,000 copies annually
I saw the Bat Out of Hell and Paradise by the Dashboard Light videos every week when I was in high school in the late '70s, they were always shown before the weekend midnight viewing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Great memories!
BTW, the female is lip-syncing, the actual singer opted out of the tour where this was filmed.
LOL, "slide in head first" LOL I wish I had seen this live. You have missed so much good music in your sheltered life. LOL I'm not on twitch but I hope you will be able to eventually put a video of your live cast up here. While they list the cause of death as complications from covid, he has been in poor health for a while. I really hope to watch your reaction to Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad. The one I like the best and another different sound.
Ellen Foley was on Night Court as the Public Defender the first season. She was replaced by Markie Post.
He sang in The Rocky Horror Picture Show. There was a section they said nobody could get all those words they had written in. He said "I can" and did. He appeared in the Broadway musicals "Hair", "Rockabye Hamlet" and "The Rocky Horror Show," and Off Broadway in "Rainbow", "More Than You Deserve", "National Lampoon Show" and the New York Shakespeare Festival's production of "As You Like it;" as well as other productions . He was once turned down for a role and had his agent call them because he was sure a mistake had been made
It's not really fair to say they're "lip-synching". The video is from one of the stage performances following the release of the album and features Karla Devito. Both of them were actually singing on stage during the tour, not synching to a recording. They took the stage video and synched it to the album recording for the video (which features Ellen Foley's voice), which is why it's such a good visual match.
