    I'm glad you 'got it' when Meat Loaf said "So now I'm praying for the end of time!", you'd be surprised how often that moment goes by unnoticed by reactors the first time they hear this song, and it's the best part - the part everybody is waiting for, to see your reaction 👍😁

    The actual female vocal is from Ellen Foley's album vocal. The girl in the video, Karla DeVito, did the Bat Out of Hell tour and this was taken from the rehearsals for that tour. Karla is a great singer in her own right but Ellen's vocals were simply legendary. Meat Loaf (RIP) was a heldentenor (heroic tenor) and was offered a lot of money to sing opera. Ellen was Billie on the original Night Court. Ellen and Karla sing together in the song I'm Just Happy To Be Here, available on UA-cam. Meat Loaf was Eddie in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and made a deal to show this promo video (not a concert) before every showing of TRHPS. When he auditioned for The Rocky Horror Show play, the writer, Richard O'Brien (Riff Raff) told him to not worry about singing all the words to Hot Patootie because no one had been able to do it. Meat Loaf said, "I can sing them." He then proved it every night of the play and in the movie. Bat Out of Hell is one of the highest selling albums in history.

    "Jack Black vibes" LOL, did you know in one movie Meatloaf played Jack Blacks dad??? You two have had the best reaction to this song, which is my second favorite of all time.

    The album Bat Out of Hell was one of the best of the loaded 70's. A concept album. First about love.. Second about time. If you listen to the whole album, "Paradise" just tells you part of the story. The final song, "For Cryin Out Loud," sings "For cryin out loud, you know I love you."

    Jack Black is the first one to admit that he's the second generation of Meatloaf. Meatloaf actually played Jack's dad in one of his movies.

    Meatloaf's background was in musical theater and he carried that over to his rock performances.

  • @jayperez955
    @jayperez955 13 годин тому +1

    Meatloaf was also a theater actor hence the performance , later he also starred in Hollywood movies

    • @donjackson5522
      @donjackson5522 12 годин тому +1

      My favorite role of his is in the movie Leap Of Faith with Steve Martin playing a crooked travelling evangelist.

  • @lawrenceb5236
    @lawrenceb5236 2 дні тому +7

    Nobody mentioned this yet, so the narration in the middle was former baseball player Phil Rizzuto describing how he went from 1st base to 2nd base, 3rd, and then scored. Of course, Phil never knew what he really was describing until after the song was released.

  • @sapphoculloden5215
    @sapphoculloden5215 2 дні тому +5

    On the Australian music quiz show, Spicks and Specks, Meatloaf, when asked why he didn't turn up to accept his Grammy, said that he wanted an Oscar first.
    So, yeah, he was a very theatrical singer.

    BAT OUT OF HELL was a Rock Opera, with a LP vinyl recording released in Oct., 1977 - over 40 million copies sold worldwide, and still sells abt. 200k copies/year. You should also react to I'D DO ANYTHING FOR LOVE (BUT I WON'T DO THAT) from the sequel BAT OUT OF HELL II: BACK INTO HELL, 1993.

  • @STAkers-ni9jg
    @STAkers-ni9jg 6 днів тому +5

    You guys pretty much got the idea; this is known as "Theatre Rock", a sub genre of Rock that includes theatrics, making each song its own little drama/act.

    Meatloaf was the most unlikely rock star of all time. He looked more like a professional wrestler. But this album was a huge hit and absolutely legendary. Sadly, we lost him to Covid during the pandemic. Meatloaf has several legendary songs in addition to Paradise By the Dashboard Light.

    My then high school girlfriend and I were in my car listening to this IRL. Everything was the same except we finished the song, didn't get married, but "went all the way" so didn't have to deal with that. We're still FB friends.
    His real name was Marvin Lee Aday. He got his nickname by his dad when he was a baby. He was pink and looked like a blob of meat.
    He had many movie appearances over the years. Including but not limited to "Rocky Horror Picture Show", "Fight Club" and "Wayne's World".
    This song was written by the late Jim Steinman He also played keyboard on this song.
    I wish I could have seen them in concert but sadly it never happened.
    I still have the "Bat out of hell" LP
    BTW they were BOTH regretting their commitment to each other.
    "It was long ago, and it was far away. So much better than it is today".

      Meat was his nickname from birth. Loaf was add by his football coach after he stepped on the coach's foot with his cleats.

      Meatloaf made several guest appearances on Ghost Hunters too, he was also so happy to do it, he was like a school kid every time just having a blast. He was such an amazing human being.

    Believe it or not this song was banned on some radio stations because of the sexual content. Times change. Decades later, Meat Loaf's daughter came home from school to tell her dad that his song was being used at her school's sex ed class to teach about responsibility and consequences of young relationship choices and things that are easily promised and easily broken.
