How about "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" by Celine Dion? Another bombastic masterpiece written by Jim Steinman.
💓 Alipers 💓🇮🇩 Indonesia 🇮🇩 MANTAP 👍👍👍👍👍☕☕☕☕☕
While being on Meatloaf, try Tenacious D's Kickapoo. He portrays Jack Blacks in-movie father, and does a brilliant job!
Try tenacious d Wonder boy
Hi Maggie, MAMAMOO Killing Voice on Dingo Music or Park Hyo Shin Wildflower on Yu Hui Yeol Sketchbook. Awesome singers
You cannot mention Meatloaf without acknowledging the composer, the late Jim Steinman whose songs the Loaf brings to life.
Love Steinman so much, the pandoras box album is so good
100% agree
"Total Eclipse of the Heart", "Holding Out For A Hero" from the movie Footloose, both by Bonnie Tyler, "Making Love out of Nothing At All" by Air Supply and two songs from the movie Streets of Fire "Tonight is What it Means To Be Young" and Nowhere Fast" are by Jim Steinman too. The two songs in the movie Streets Of Fire are credited as being performed by Fire Incorporated. Fire Incorporated was a band Steinman created from studio musicians just for the movie soundtrack. Streets Of Fire was a music driven "Rock 'n Roll fable".
@@Brirend aswell as left in the dark by Barbara Streisand, i prefer meat loafs though, and its all coming back to me celine dions version is beautiful, for me an underrated song is good girls go to heaven, but the bad girls go everywhere
@@gianpyres3 Yeah, it would take a while to list all the songs he wrote or had a part in it.
He wrote "No Matter What" by Boyzone and som other stuff for Barry Manilow.
OMG, if only she did Paradise by the Dashboard Light. She would explode during the baseball scene. Watching the live performances for Meatloaf is a must.
Particularly the version live on the BBC, which would have likely got blocked if it hadn't gone out late when the big chiefs weren't in to pull the plug.
Absolutely have to do Paradise by the Dashboard Lights!
For the Bat out of Hell Live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra re-release in 2006, she did take over all female vocals.
Yes, but the old one, his voice gave way in the later years and sounded terrible. He should have stopped.
Yes
"Will you hose me down with holy water if I get too hot" is one of the greatest lyrics ever written.
I would.
"Will you cater to every fantasy I got!?"
For some reason this line always reminds me of a line from the song Suddenly Seymour. It's delivered similarly: "Suddenly Seymour, he purified me."
** His voice in this song won him a Grammy.
He won’t do the first line before every chorus.
“I’ll never forget the way you feel right now.”
“I’ll never forgive myself if we don’t go all the way tonight.”
“I’ll never do it better than I do it with you.”
“I’ll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life.”
I would do anything for love, but I wont do that.
Meatloaf is a truly gifted man. The songs 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light' and '2 outta 3 ain't bad' are amazing!
Absolutely, Maggie should watch Paradise By The Dashboard Lights! Dynamite music, outstanding acting, and funny af
And "Objects in the Rearview Mirror May Appear Closer than They Are".
Everyone always seems to forget "For Crying Out Loud", I love that one.
Maggie not knowing who Meatloaf is cuts me to the heart.
It's always important to note that these epic songs were written by the late genius Jim Steinman.
The actress in the video is Dana Patrick, but she didn't do the singing in the song, that's Lorraine Crosby.
Maggie, you GOTTA listen to Paradise By the Dashboard Light, though it's very long.
Also, the music video is one of director Michael Bay's early works. Some say he should have stuck to music videos, lol.
Lorraine Crosby was not available to do the video
@@badplay156 Is that true? She isn't even named on the song credits.
1. The entire album of "Bat Out of Hell" is now considered classic and has aged incredibly. Meatloaf loves to belt out his songs
I actually think it’s a PERFECT album! Each song is it’s own epic story, but the album is just short enough to leave you wanting more.
RIP the great man. What a voice. The "that" is the last line of each verse. Will make sense if you read the lyrics.
After a while you'll forget everything
My sister had Paradise by the Dashboard Light playing when our dad walked in, he listened to the lyrics, lost his poop, grabbed the record off the turntable and snapped it in half. We got grounded for listening to "filth". Oh so many years ago..... Meatloaf became our battle cry! 😂
It was long ago and far away.
If I had a daughter, I would’ve had her listen to that and told her it was a cautionary tale for girls. Come to think of it I had three boys I should’ve done the same with them, with the same Paradise by the dashboard lights. Now I am praying for the end of Time…
For me… it was me and my cousin and my Aunt came in and broke paradise city….😂
Too bad you couldn't play 'We're not going to take it' after that happened.
Try to listen to his "Objects in the rearview mirror may appear closer than thay are" .. it's a masterpiece that make me cry each time i listen to it.
Rip Meat Loaf.
My favorite when I was 8 😍
Jim Steinman is was and always will be a ROCK GOD!!!
Meatloaf and Jim Steinman were the perfect team. Jim wrote amazing songs, and Meat could deliver them in a most memorable way.
100%! Meatloaf's best music all features lyrics written by Jim Steinman. I have no idea why they didn't collaborate more. They were an amazing team!
The woman singing at the end is Lorraine Crosby. That is not her in the video
Gotcha. Thanks.
Yeah... I wondered if it might have been Ellen Foley - she did all of the backing work on Bat out of Hell (noting that Carla DaVita did all the live performances when the show went on tour)
This is Dana Patrick in the video according to Wikipedia
Session singer, Jim steinman used a lot of very good female singers
She sounds a lot like Bonnie Tyler.
"Paradise by the Dashboard Light (Live Version)" is a MUST !!!!
Most reactors miss the way the music genres change takes you from the late sixties to the eighties. As our character thinks back to the beginning in a passion that has cooled, so much better than it is today.
RIP Meatloaf, I grew up listening to your fabulous Rock Opera music!
Back in 1985, when I was a senior in High School, he did a show at the Ocean Center down here in Daytona Beach. It was amazing! The man pours every ounce of energy his body produces into his shows.
"I have no idea who Meat Loaf is"
I face palmed so hard
Give her a break. She's certainly very far younger than me and likely you too. :-)
Yeah, it's the guy from Fight Club
Meat Loaf. "Who is this?"
Later... Tina Turner gets a mention. So now I'm confused, surely Meat Loaf, Tina Turner, Cher, Bonnie Tyler are all in the same area of 70's 80's fandom, if you know one you know the others. It just threw me sideways a bit to go from 'who's Meat Loaf' to 'yay Tina Turner' 😁
I hope you didn't hurt yourself, but I will admit I came close too. 😀👍🍻
@@onearthonelegion His name was Robert Paulson.
Maggie, "That", is explained in the last line in each verse before the chorus. This comes from Meatloaf himself.💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
this. Although for some reason all of our minds go to 'that' being sex, or murder, or some illusive thing... but no literally.. each chorus he tells you the thing he won't do... Each Chorus tells you twice that he'll do anything for love. Then there's a but, and the thing he won't do. Example, the first Chorus he sings "But i'll never forget the way you feel right now" THAT is the THAT for that chorus.. next chorus he says "But i'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way (Tonight)" Forgiving himself is the THAT for that chorus... THEN if you go read the words at the very beginning of the video... the whole thing will make sense... heh
Thank you! 💘😊🎶
This, exactly. Each line in the chorus tells you 2 things he will do, and 1 thing he won't do, for love.
Especially in the last verse when the lady is singing/asking what will he do and what she thinks he'll end up doing.
@@AustinSlacker The lady does say "you'll see that it's time to move on" and "sooner or later you'll be screwing around" though. Implying cheating, or possibly that she's the ghost of a woman who died and he isn't prepared to date again. 🤷🏻♂️
Just gone 28 years since I first heard that incredible voice singing this amazing song. I was 6 years old and knew that this was something special. Still get that same thrill at the piano intro, and the same chills when he starts to sing. Just love Meat Loaf, he's one of a kind. That VOICE! 😍 Incidentally, he turned down the chance to train as an opera singer way back in the early 1970s for a staggering salary. Instead, he auditioned for a role in composer Jim Steinman's musical, Steinman wrote a whole new part for him, and the two of them went on to create the "Bat Out of Hell" album, with producer Todd Rundgren. Also, to answer the perennial question: the things he won't do for love:
"Forget the way you feel right now."
"Do it better than I do it with you."
"Forgive myself if we don't go all the way."
"Stop dreaming of you every night of my life."
Thank you for starting out with this song. A lot of reactors start with "Paradise", which is a fun song and video, but doesn't show off his awesome vocal range like "Anything For Love" and "Bat Out of Hell" do. So glad you enjoyed this one, and have fun exploring the Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman rabbit hole! :)
So glad you enjoyed! Hope to see you tomorrow @ 3pm EDT on Twitch: www.twitch.tv/MaggieReneeMusic? It's FREE to watch, FREE to follow and FREE to subscribe with Amazon Prime! 🎸😊💖
Also she says he will start screwing around and he says he won’t do that.
Something you need to understand when listening to a song written by Jim Steinman. He tells the story and it up to you to decide what it means to you. Also...He ALWAYS goes for "Over the Top" with his videos (see Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse of the Heart).
💘💘 Absolutely love Meatloaf. His entire Bat Out of Hell Album is epic. I'd love to request a couple of songs from it but they are Looooong! Great reaction.
Glad you enjoyed the reaction! Thank you for your comment! 💘💘😊😊
Oh yeah, that album was just totally popular when i was maybe 14-16 or whatever. Of course "Paradise by the dashboard light" was just the best ever 😃🤘🏼
The backing band for the album "Bat out of Hell" was composed of members drawn from Bruce Springsteen's E-Street band and Todd Rundgren's Return to Forever.
@@maggiereneemusic So sad that Meatloaf died yesterday. 😢 Such an epic musician!
And the gal in the tub is Dana Patrick.
Love Meatloaf, especially with a side of mashed, and more with Paradise By The Dashboard Light. 💘
For sure Doug! Love it. And Bat out of hell. I'd request either but they are so long! LOL.
YAY! So glad you enjoyed! Thank you for your comment! 💘🤩
@@trixiebella Yeah, went back and looked at Meatloaf's songs, didn't realize the classics were long songs :-)
The female voice that you might recognize is that of Lorraine Crosby that recorded this in studio. Michael A’day toured this single with Patti Russo performing the role. The actress in the video was on the verge of great success back in the day, Dana Patrick was her name.
The female voice of the creature’s lover gives the verse that tells you what “… won’t do that” refers to in the song.
Another superb reaction! 💪🏻🎤🎶👍🏻
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
it's not just that he won't cheat on her...it's everything he said in every verse...I'll never foget the way you feel right now, I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way, I'll never do it better then I do it with you, I'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life, then he sures her he won't screw around...if only it were true in real life...such an awesome song written by a fantastic song writer, Jim Steinman, and performed by the best artist in the world, Meat Loaf. There's still not a dry eye in the house....keep singing with the angels...we love you Meat!
"Paradise by the Dashboard Light" would be an amazing reaction: the live performance has so much for you, as a professional singer.
Jim steinman’s songwriting is amazing , he has penned most of Meatloafs song , with meatloaf
That is one of my favorite songs of all time. Heard it when I was a kid and found the message powerful even then. But haven't heard it in more than a decade, and after listening again, it still gives me chill. Such a beautiful amalgamation of darkness, light, love, sorrow and pain. Thank you for reviewing this one.
Thank you for your lovely comment and hope to see you on www.patreon.com/MaggieRenee?
Meatloaf is a legend so is Jim Steinman together they created The Bat Out Of Hell, I always call Meatloaf the Rock and Roll Phantom Of The Oprea with the voice of the angel of music. Rock in Peace Meatloaf 🙏
Some songs just seemed to be open to debate on their true meaning and you never truly find out the truth. I'm still scarred from Rocky Horror and the meatloaf scene. 😱😅 Fantastical reaction can't wait till the next one!
LOL! Love your fantastical comment! 😜
So if I'm not mistaken Meatloaf has said in an interview that whenever he starts the chorus the final of the three things he says in every set is the thing he won’t do. It's most evident when the woman starts to sing and he rebuttals. But I could be misremembering.
Meatloaf: it's what's for dinner.
This isn't one of them. In each verse he mentions one thing he won't do. Some people are just defeated by the syntax. It's easy to miss because he says what he won't do before they go into the "but I won't do that" chorus.
The Bat out of Hell album is iconic. Meat Loaf is truly gifted.
You should watch Meatloaf with Marion Raven doing " It's all coming back to me now". From 2006 I think.
It's a great song, though IMO, Céline Dion did it better.
@@fnjesusfreak Was looking to see if this had been commented on.
Love both versions. Celine's solo vs Meatloaf's duet hit me in different places.
Jim Steinmann is like 80% of the reason I love Meatloaf's music. His compositions are amazing!
Meatloaf is a master. I would also suggest "Objects in the Rear View Mirror may appear Closer than They Are", "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights". Many many more.
Great reaction - I have never seen another reactor do Meatloaf (any tracks), and he is such an incredible singer and performer - it’s lovely to see him being appreciated 🙏💜
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
I adore meatloaf. So talented RIP miss him terribly.
This is such a great song. Also, I've almost watched every single one of your videos. I skipped a lot of them because you released this one, and I love this song.
Great in concert! He did his own thing and wouldn’t bow down to the record labels by trimming down his trademark lengthy songs.
Accept this song is actually 12 minutes, not 7 1/2
What Meatloaf won't do is anything contrary to loving her. Can't be more explicit than that. There is more than that earlier in the song. It is a bit ironic that the recording company that likes to block their property turned down recording Meatloaf's first album.
So glad you enjoyed! Thank you for your comment! 🤩
Exactly. What he won't do is at the end of each verse.
@@maggiereneemusic Each verse's "That" is spelled out in the previous verse.
@@jamesonyates2388 Line, not verse. But I think that's what you meant. ;)
For crying out loud is one you truly must must must....heat to truly get his voice...
The song is literal. The lyrics tell you what he won't do. He won't:
1. forget the way you feel right now,
2. forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight,
3. do it better than I do it with you,
4. stop dreaming of you every night of my life,
5. see that its time to move on,
6. sooner or later ... be screwing around,
He essentially won't stop wanting her, won't stop loving her, he won't cheat on her, and he won't leave her.
Paradise by the Dashboard Lights. That should've been your introduction to Meatloaf.
He's a fantastic performer. Was an epic live show.
I kept thinking, "Wait'll Lorraine Crosby starts singing, Maggie..."
The singer's name is Lorraine Crosby, the girl in the clip is Dana Patrick.
Female singer is Lorraine Crosby from Newcastle, North East UK.
R.I.P Meat
Meatloaf is on of my favorite artists. It's funny because anytime Ive ever been asked "do you like Meatloaf" my immediate response is "Omg YES! His music is amazing!" When they look at me funny it always hits me. They ment the food 🤦🏻♀️
Definitely check out 2 out of 3 or Paradise by the dashboard lights!
The story of how they got the deal with Paradise is fucking phenomenal
He has two amazing albums: Bat out of Hell (1976-77 time frame) and Bat out of Hell II (1993/93) he is probably one of the most underrated musicians/entertainmeners. “Objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are” (yes that’s the song title) is a beautifully sung one as well
Such a huge gap between these two epic albums, kind of crazy to think about
@@Roger-ws8rj amen to that, I am glad I found Bat II in HS
I was going to suggest "Objects". Its one of my fave Meatloaf songs....And I have to ask...
"What rock have you been hiding under Maggie?"
his other albums are great too
Each verse mentions something that he won’t do for love, though most of us only catch the last thing. It helps to read the lyrics.
R.I.P meat loaf.
Oh man. I remember when this Song was new. I think this Song was much longer on the Album. 12 min. It was so amazing.
RIP.
I keep forgetting what "that" is between each time I hear the song, lol. Loved the reaction 💘
YAY! So glad you enjoyed! Thank you for your comment! 💘🤩
It's cheating. He won't cheat.
“Paradise by the dashboard light” is an amazing song/performance. You should react to it 😍
Meat Loaf is what is called a Heldentenor and they wanted shine to do opera. Though he did many musicals including Rocky Horror
When the text appears asking what the thing is he won't do for love is perfectly places as that line of the song is one of those things!
I watched the video!! UA-cam... 😛😛Lol, what a fun reaction!! Yep, I remember that song was everywhere at that time, nice, sorry Millennials, but this is real music 😁😁🤘🤘💘
LOL! Thank you for your comment! 💘🤩
Lol, the meaning is in the lyrics
"After awhile you'll forget everything, it was just a brief interlude and a midsummer night fling (one night stand) and you'll see that it's time to move on (nothing to do with death)" basically he's saying he won't "hit it and quit it"
Then the next verse, he basically says he won't cheat on her.
EXACTLY! He's saying he's not going to leave her and not going to cheat on her. Why do people think that's unclear?
@@meanmutton Because all they listen to is the hook.
I never really got why people insist there's a huge mystery in the lyrics and nobody knows what he means in the chours. He literally mentions two things he won´t do in the first verse (he'll never lie to her and that's a fact, and he'll never forget the way she feels right now), and then in the next verse he says he'll never forgive himself if they don't go all the way tonight. He spends the rest of the song giving examples of what he WOULD do, and saying in the chorus that he'd do anything for love but that he won't do that, you know, the things he said in the verses he'd never do.
Plus the part where Lorraine Crosby lines you'll be screwing around means she thinks he will cheating but he won't do that plus the part where she's singing knowing the territory because of all the competition from beautiful women meatloaf always loved most people don't understand the song because of the radio version is not 12 minutes long only 5-6 minutes & really don't like the radio version because all of the lyrics need to be heard very good song
I waited on Meat Loaf in January, 2000 while working at Hard Rock Cafe in Orlando, Florida. I asked him what he wouldn't do? He sighed, and said, "have you heard the song? Do you KNOW the f'ing song? The answer is IN the F'ING SONG." So I said, "you won't do it better, stop dreaming of her, or be screwin' around"? He smiled and gave me two backstage passes at that night's show at Hard Rock Live, and left a $100 tip. One of the absolute BEST shows I have ever seen. Unfortunately, after the show when my wife and I went to go backstage to meet him, he had passed out from exhaustion and had been taken to the hospital.
He was a great vocalist, a talented actor, and a genuinely nice guy. One of the coolest, nicest stars I ever waited on. Meat Loaf, Alice Cooper, Mark McGrath, all 10 guys from N'Synch and Backstreet Boys (I could never remember who was in which band), and believe it or not Britney Spears were the best, nicest, coolest stars I ever had the pleasure to wait on or do security for.
Each verse mentions two things that the man would do for love, followed by one thing that he will not do. The title phrase repetition reasserts that he "won't do that." Each mention of "that" is a reference to the particular promise that he made earlier in the same verse. The four things he says he will never do are:
*forget the way you feel right now"
*forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight"
*do it better than I do it with you"
*stop dreaming of you every night of my life"
The female vocalist is Lorraine Crosby, a British session singer. She has also performed with Bonnie Tyler. Other than that, nothing really much of note.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the Alice in Chains reaction I just posted?
I love Meat Loaf and his music, this is one of my favourites but you have to love bat out of hell. I also love paradise by the dashboard light is also one that is well worth a look. Looked like you where enjoying this which is definitely a plus 😊. 💘
So glad you enjoyed! Thank you! 💘😊🎶
Agreed that you MUST listen to Paradise by the Dashboard Light live
One more voice of agreement on that. I'm actually surprised she didn't start with Paradise, it's almost certainly his most iconic piece.
I absolutely loved when u sang that 1st line w him. That was great!!!❤❤❤
this is one of my all time anthems. still my favorite song since I was in junior school
If you liked this Maggie, then do "Paradise by the dashboard Lights" live version, I think you'd get a kick out of it
Glad you are finding Meatloaf, he has some amazing songs. Also, thanks to this song “meatloaf” became a popular choice of safe word - you’d do anything for love, but you won’t do *that* 🤣😂🤣😂
Thank you for your lovely comment and hope to see you on www.patreon.com/MaggieRenee?
Absolutely love this one! So many memories. 😍💖
I love watching ppl react to song i have loved as long as i can remember lol. I love two out three aint bad. Absolutely another all time fav
I also love how ppl think its over and she comes in and he finishes it. He has been around forever and i have loved his music since i was a kid so i love that young ppl r just finding him and still have the same reactions i did❤❤❤
Her name is Lorraine Crosby, an English singer. Love your reactions. Thank you.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Hope to see you TONIGHT at my LIVE stream?
Always love your reactions and break downs. Love your hair very beautiful. Really enjoy how you enjoy the mechanics of singing voice.
Thank you for your lovely comment. 😊 Hope to see you tonight on my LIVE stream?
I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" is a song written by Jim Steinman, and recorded by Meat Loaf with Lorraine Crosby. The song was released in August 1993 as the first single from the album Bat Out of Hell II: Back into Hell. The last six verses feature Crosby, who was credited only as "Mrs. Loud" in the album notes. She does not appear in the video, in which her vocals are lip-synched by Dana Patrick. Meat Loaf promoted the single with American singer Patti Russo.
Meatloaf actually turned down the lead in Phantom of the Opera. I was hoping he would have taken it. He would have been great!
Yes me too
I mean, it's his most well-known song, but you can't cover Meat Loaf without cracking on to the title track from Bat Out Of Hell. It's an all-time classic. I reckon his vocals there are faaaaaaaar better than in here, too :)
Also, for a bit of fun, Dead Ringer For Love is good to check out, as it's Meat Loaf featuring a very special guest...
This is why it’s best to listen to the music without the video. You capture the music/magic with no distractions.
Can you imagine a duet with Freddie Mercury.
His theatrical / rock
performances are amazing!
This was my pre-live stream days. Very interesting to see your written/post initial reaction “Reactions”. This song was all over the place back in 1993. We are talking quite literally inescapable. Of course, those were pre-Maggie days as well. So nothing surprising about you not recognizing it. Meat Loaf is not exactly the best vocalist, per se, but his choice of always über dramatic Jim Steinman songs is what makes him legend. In terms of what he won’t do for love, “that” has been left up to interpretation I feel. Fun reaction. If nothing else, it made me listen to the song for the first time in over 25 years. 🤷🏼♂️
Cool! Thank you for your comment! 🤩
Maggie, the female singer is Lorraine Crosby, she hails from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. She usually records under the name "Mrs Loud"
Thanks for the info and hope to see you tonight here: ua-cam.com/video/DSfVsdNwiEM/v-deo.html
I’ve been to see him in concert. One of the best concerts I’ve ever seen!
Maggie, you are fun, smart, and positive. I really enjoy your reaction videos. Subscribed!
Welcome and glad you enjoyed! 😊Thank you for your lovely comment. Hope to see you in 2 hours for our FUN LIVE Reactions today here: www.twitch.tv/MaggieReneeMusic?
Oh yeah one more thing. Meatloaf always has those big sound moments in almost every song and he truly sounds like he is on the verge of tears when he sings some phrases. A good example is the ending section to his song " For Cryin' Out Loud". That section will bring tears to your eyes because of what is actually being said and with the emotion he is saying it. He is one of the best because he can elicit a feeling of empathy from the listener and make them feel that sadness. There will never be another like him, just like there will never be another Freddie Mercury. He is equally as special.
I also really like the way the guy who actually writes the songs, Jim Steinman is able to write some of the prettiest and heart filled lyrics and then the very last line of the phrase there is a catch or condition to it that makes it impossible from the singers perspective. Spends the beginning of the song painting a very sad, emotional and pretty picture continuously saying "I will do anything for love"........the catch "I just won't do that." So in the end he wouldn't actually do anything for love. Its one of the best human observations I have ever seen, I take it as he is pointing out the hypocrisy of humans who says they have unconditional love while having conditions to it. Very clever writing.
He also did it in songs like "Paradise by the Dashboard light" the final lyrics is literally a person complaining about the vows he made to a girl, 2 out of 3 ain't bad is saying that 3 conditions to his love, however the person only met 2 of the conditions. Even the song I mentioned before is the opposite when he starts with somewhat selfish lyrics followed by why he loves the girl so much. This mans writing will make you think about human behavior, very well worded person.
Lorraine Crosby, a singer from England, was the guest singer. Crosby and her partner Stuart Emerson had moved to Los Angeles to work with Steinman, who became their manager. He secured them a contract with Meat Loaf's label MCA. While visiting the company's studios on Sunset Boulevard, Crosby was asked to provide guide vocals for Meat Loaf, who was recording "I'd Do Anything for Love". Crosby recalls, "In I went and sang it twice and I never thought anything more of it until six months later when I got a phone call saying, 'Would you mind if we used your vocals?'" As Crosby had recorded her part as guide vocals, she received no royalties from the song.[13]
All i can say is his music is just brilliant such unique rock that is timeless
I totally LOVED your review/reactions. Also, when this was originally released none of us got it the first time either!
Thank you for your lovely comment! 😊💖 Hope to see you TONIGHT: ua-cam.com/video/Bzan_Nmd1wQ/v-deo.html
A great rock composer met a natural operatic tenor and they gave us the gift.
If i remember right, when Meatloaf was asked about the meaning of "that" said, he said, those "that" reference the different promises he gave in the specific song refrain:
- 1. Refrain "that" = "forget the way you feel right now"
- 2. Refrain "that" = "forgive myself if we don’t go all the way tonight"
- 3. Refrain "that" = "do it better than I do it with you"
- 4. Refrain "that" = "stop dreaming of you every night of my life"
This song still makes me cry 25 years later. It came at a rough time and I listened to it constantly.
Meatloaf did a live cd and said the "That" in the song is the line sung just be for the "I won't do that line". It makes more sense if you go back and listen to it with the meaning in mind.
Meat Loaf was a MASSIVE star in the 1970s. Bat Out Of Hell is one of the greatest albums of all time. He came from a musical theater background and practically invented Theatrical (or Wagnerian) Rock. His concerts are EPIC performances...basically a collection of mini-musicals. The girl in this video is just an actress. She was not the actual singer. This version in the video contains the song's radio edit. The full album version is over 12 minutes long. That was typical of Meat Loaf, most of his songs were at least ten minutes longs. His song Paradise By The Dashboard Light is one of my favorite songs of all time, and the video is one of the most entertaining videos ever produced. It's a cautionary tale about teenage lust...told with a comical style.
That is the way she made him feel. He will not forget how she made him feel.
Saw his in concert. One of the very best performances ever. You would love his stuff. Bat Out Of Hell has been turned into a full Broadway musical.
Every song on his debut album "Bat Out of Hell" is a classic song. Several were big radio hits for Meatloaf. His videos are excellent. His live performances are dramatic and legendary. He got his music career start in The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Within a year, he became a big star in rock.
The singer is Lorraine Crosby who filled in for the singer who fell ill. She agreed to do the song and received zero compensation.
She said it didn’t matter, as she had a part in this iconic #1 song. She is a great singer
Lorraine Crosby (born 27 November 1960) is an English singer and songwriter. She was the female vocalist on Meat Loaf 's 1993 hit single " I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That) ". Her debut album, Mrs Loud was released in 2008.
I love the things he won't do. He won't hurt her or forget her, or cheat on her.
I saw them in concert, and she was magnificent!
Incidentally, he did all the instrumentation himself. He was an all-around MUSICIAN!!
Finding out what Meatloaf won't do for love is like knowing what problem Vanilla Ice has solved.
If I went to see a doctor and he sad that I only had 8 minutes to live, I would start Meat Loaf's Paradise by the Dashboard Light. Meat Loaf started in the theater, so his music and videos are very dramatic and artistic. You cannot talk about Meat Loaf without reacting to this song. It is well worth your time.
The way I have always interpreted this song...He won't Lie, He would do anything for love, except lie
The heart at the end is perfect fit for this video
Lorraine Crosby did the female vocals. She's an English singer and songwriter. In 2008, 15 years after recording this (1993) she released her debut album, Mrs Loud, at the age of 48.

It's moments like this that I have to realize how lucky I've been with music. My mom was blasting his Bat out of Hell album for days when I was a kid in the 80s lol. Check out the songs Bat out of Hell, Paradise by the Dashboard Light, and You Took the Words Right out of my Mouth. I feel you would love them.
