back in the day when i was a kid i watched video clip of this song with the fingers covering my eyes. i was so scared but the song just hypnotized me... such sweet perfection!
this is one of those songs that are really seep, strong, hard and meaningful.... exactly what most of nowadays songs aren't...
@blasterskv No they won't! They left us when the 80s did. Evidence of it has been mirror clear since 1990, though we have rather amazingly witnessed 'music' go from bad to worse infinity with every year. Whatever sound/non-style that dominates-it's all the same, lame no-brain audible and visual full-on pain! There's nothing new and decent out there waiting under the sun-if there was, we surely would have heard and seen it by now.
While I love this song and be happy that it is on youtube, you can't use a song under fair use like this. They have every right to take this song offline, tho I am happy that this label is smarter then a bunch of labels out there that just take down everything they own copyright on.
What ever happened to singers that actually had good singing voices? I wish I were alive during the 80s. Instead I get this electropop stuff, like Lady Gaga and Kesha. -_-
@gsmith1997 I know, I know... But there's always some gems hidden around. Just have to search enough and in the right places. Widely known pop nowadays isn't one of them ;)
im in my sisters name mine is k88c07 anyways i agree with arienei this song was mine an my sons fathers song it ment so much 2 me just a few yrs ago when we were 2gether an even 4 a yr after but not anymore dont get me worng i still love the song its wonderfull just not 4 the same reasons i did back then,ur awsome meatloaf and so is ur music
I met him once a long time ago. I like the artist and the person. This song held a lot of meaning for me, and still does, even though my long term relationship ended badly.
Just started balling my eyes out when the song started playing. I used to listen to meat loaf a lot as a child as my parents would blair it while driving to visit my grandparents. My grandma passed away recently and did this ever hit me.. Wow!
I sang this to my friends and told them it was by a band called meatloaf. They just looked at me all confused and I was like "The concerts are GREAT, several meatloafs get up there and sing fantastic songs. They have GREAT voices.xD"
@HeartOfAJedi just keep searching ^^, there are awesome and nice guys out there :D (of which some will think your youtube name is awesome xD). love will come to those who are patient, its probably just that the guys are too shy ^^
Remember they played this at Madison Square Garden once when Michael Jordan single handily tied up a playoff game against the Knicks with like :03 seconds left.
i have aspergers syndrome, i have been trying to show my love to girls for at least 3 years now, and i'm 15 now. I try everything i know, but now i'm so scared of girls i cannot approach them, i can't look at them in the eyes, but i can give them all the love i feel inside of me, and yet, they just refuse to understand. ='(
@GeorgeGoesNow i feel you man. its hard for me and i don`t even have apergers syndrome. Just push forward and do what you need to do to be happy. See if you can change your life
@GeorgeGoesNow just tell them you think there PREETY and go on from there dont be scared whats the worse that could happen if thay laff go on to the next one you will get better and better it in the end lad :)
@HeartOfAJedi with a username like heart of a jedi, you're not getting a girl soon bud. don't get me wrong, I love starwars, just no man. just no. lol
"Bat out of Hell II" was a gift from my daddy for my 10th birthday, because he knew i loved electrical guitars (because of their shiny and colourful appearence). This was my very first album. Eversince I'm hooked to Rock 'n Roll...
A significant enough one to inspire him to write the song. Heard she actually tried to sue him for copyright privileges, didn't get too far.
Part of it, the story goes was that she wanted to buy the store brand of raisins, and ML, who'd done some grape-picking labor in his youth, refused, holding out for the best. Mrs ML then whined, "If you loved me, you'd buy these raisins!", causing her husband to respond with .... well, you can connect the blanks. Anyway, cute story.
One of the best love songs of all time in my opinion. It captures the passion, the power, and the goodness of love. I am a very blessed man for having had the chance to hear it and to hear it whenever I want because I bought it years ago. Thank you Meatloaf and Jim Steinman for this beautiful masterpiece.
Especially the sentence at 10.14 gives me goosebumps from head to toe.... What a gift to be able to write/compose such a song... unbelievable. Enjoy fellas!
Can't believe the female vocalist never got royalties from the song, because she only provided guidelines for another vocalist to perform the song to, only for Steinman to use the guidlines instead. That must suck out loud for her.
was listening to this with my mom yesterday, she can't dance to it anymore but my sister and i did she said it made her mothers day this is the version i grew up with i wasn't even aware there was a short version untill i was like 17 lol
i will destroy my speachers with this song i will play it so lout that the hole street will sing it the hole city (Romania-Timisoara) this song will be heared
