One of the only people who could ever do opera, theatre, and rock n roll while telling you a story you couldn’t stop listening to. A truly legendary performer! RIP big meat!
Truly right. I saw him live in Frankfurt (Germany), a lot of years ago with his "back out of hell-tour".The best live-concert ever. We all were sad, wenn it ended. RIP MEAT.
Very hard to watch without choking up. I might have heard this song sooo many times but it’s power never gets old and it still touches the soul cause Meatloaf was such a great performer. RIP
Meatloafdid get the credit and the recognition he deserved 40 million records and millions of fans prove that but Patti Russo and Ellen Foley who sung on the albums need to be credited more
We are losing legends way too quickly this year. Meat Loaf being one. His songs stand the test of time. My parents loved them, I love them and my children as well. Rip Meat Loaf
not to forget, we also lost Jim Steinman only months earlier, the songwriter/producer who worked with Meat Loaf on his Bat Out Of Hell album and on his comeback album Back into Hell
Yes he’s a true Legend , I’m a senior and i think he’s the best as far as Rock and Roll Legends !! It’s sad he’s no longer here , but he’s in Rock & Roll heaven . This song was my saving grace, when I went through very though times . He raised me up with his music , this song in particular . For all of us his Loyal Fans will live forever in our hearts ❤️ . May he Rest In Peace ☮️ ! Thoughts and prayers to his family, loved 🥰 ones & friends . 🎸❤️☝️💿🎤🥁🎚❤️😭🎸🥁
My older brother gave me a Meat Loaf cassette back in the 80's when I was a teenager, he was 16 years older. I was hooked. In the 90's I heard that Meat Loaf was coming out with another album and when I 1st heard the piano intro I was hooked. I was lucky to catch a pre-tour and album release concert in upstate NY in a small theater. Great show. My brother passed of cancer 6 years ago. Its hard to listen to MeatLoaf without thinking of him. Thank's Ben
Shannon Woodcock I’m sorry for such a great loss. I too, lost my brother. (5 years older) It’s been many many years, and the pain is still scorching, some days. Blessings
My youngest son, age 4 at the time while in kindergarten was asked what his favorite songs was, he said anything for love, teacher did not know the song, Craig sang her the first verse... My son's and I all grew up with meatloaf
Cannot believe big Meat has gone to the big concert in the sky, I have loved his voice since outset and still have my original Bat out of Hell LP RIP big man, you made my ears smile so much❤️
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Michael Aday aka Meat Loaf, had some serious issues over the years with cocaine and alcohol. He overcame them and I believe he was sober for a long time by the time he died. Drug addiction is a disease which is all too easy to catch in the world of Rock & Roll. No shame, though! Same with obesity… we have to stop judging and shaming people for physical and mental (and sometimes both) illnesses that they have to battle very hard to overcome and often just can’t do anything about! From everything I know about him Meat Loaf was a good man who was devoted to his family, especially his children, and a very hard-working artist whose recordings and performances will live on!
@@pawe596 He said his nervous breakdown came when Billy Joel gave him a standing ovation after "Bat Out of Hell" hit the charts. Yes, I would say he was recognized.
If I live to be 100 then I will STILL never tire of watching, and listening to, this video. What a range his voice has - even after all the medical problems from which he suffered. RIP Meatloaf.
Patti Russo isn't the actual original vocal on this track , Patti just toured with him. The female vocalist is actually called Lorraine Crosby who is from Newcastle ( look her up on here) Lorraine still tours but didn't make a penny from this track.
Yes, indeed, John. He wasnt "only" a singer but a dramatic actor as well. And Patti Russo: what a beautiful real LADY! Her white robe in the dark area may become part of rock's history.
Hearing this at 15 years old on the radio and watching the vid on MTV is a whole lot of teenage memories today's generation won't get and for that I feel bad for them. 💔 This was EPIC XXX
60 years old and still rocking to Meat Loaf. Play him for my granddaughter when i keep her. He is her favorite. She cries for Willie Nelson though. Cracks me up.
Yet another unique and one of a kind musical artist we've lost in the last 15 yrs. And I doubt there's anyone in the wings that can take any of them's place. RIP Meat Loaf.
Meat Loaf (RIP) was born to sing this song. No one else on the planet could give this classic song the voice it needed to shine...Patti Russo is awesome also, and should make the original singer; Lorraine Crosby proud...
I was listing to his music 2nd week of Jan 2022. I was thinking that it was from the '80s. Man time should not be remembered in numbers but good music. Thank you for being part of my music playlist as a teen in the 70s. Keep ROCKING where ever you may be.
This is my song. This has been my song for 20 years. I have only one dream in life, and that has been my dream since I was 12 years old, and thats to find true love. Im now 32 years old and Im still searching, hoping and praying. Have lived a life of deprsssion and severe social anxiety and lonliness. I have no friends in real life, BUT I WILL NEVER give up on my dream of true love until I die. And one thing is true I will do anything for love, BUT I WOULD NEVER TREAT YOU WRONG if your out their my angel.
Dear Strickland: I know you will find it for these reasons: 1) You are honest. Women love honest men. 2) You are not afraid to show your feelings. Try going to therapy and taking medication for your depression and anxious. I wish you the best.
You are so right. I have been married, but to the wrong woman, which I think may be worse than never having been married. It would for sure be worse if I didn't have three beautiful children out of the marriage. But I have yet to find "the one" also.
I'm sorry to hear that you've struggled with the social anxiety and depression for so long. I actually have both conditions myself so I understand how lonely that can be. It's great to hear that you haven't given up on love! I wish all the best and pray that your someone special is out there!
Katie Z. Thank you for those kind comments. I sometimes feel that in this world, that guys like me who arent the best looking only have 1 shot at love, and thats if we have dinero. In this world image is so prevalent, and there is more to a person that that. The media and such make it seem that you must look a certain way to suceed in life and its a shame. I am to prove no matter how hard, that I can find love regardless of my looks without having to be rich.
The chills still go through me. We wore out the LP back in the 70's. Even Buckingham Palace did a tribute, what more can be said? 🇨🇦 loves you Meat Loaf. You will live on in so many hearts around the world.
This is the best live version I've seen of this great song. The power, passion and emotion in Meatloaf's voice is really incredible. I can't think of another male singer EVER who could sing like this. Truly one of a kind. Rest in Peace.
Amen RIP first time hearing paradise by dashboard lights, 1977, e of Baton Rouge La on our way to our favorite tubbing spot off Airline HWY. In love with our 17 year old friend, was 13 and was dreaming of her while listening to that song. RIP Meat Loaf!!
Such a beautiful performance!! Such passion and expression is felt by the viewers. Deepest condolences to his friends and family. He will live on forever in his music.
Meatloaf was on fire in this performance!....can't look away....and then beautiful Patti Russo comes floating in from the side with that angelic voice!.......simply SU-PERB!
I know. My mom used to play this when I was little and really enjoyed it. The lyrics to this song is beautiful. Saw the music video to the song and really enjoyed the Beauty and the Beast theme to it.
Hey , sure was aye. No shit man, watching this gave me goosebumps. He was and now is a Freakin Rock God. Patti R was awesome as well, what a duo! yep, Unreal!!!
Truly a performer in a class by himself and a superior showman! Sing with the angels on high and let your voice be heard across heaven. Thank you for connecting us fans and rest in peace 🕊️.
Great Actor and Musician who is largely underrated for his true and real talents. Loved him in Fight Club. You can see his enormous passion in this performance.
Just a Brilliant Performance!! An Amazing Iconic Singer and Entertainer. RIP Meat!!! You have touched so many lives especially those of us who were in high school in the late 1970's!!
One of my fav ballad of all time. I was about 12-13yrs old when I heard this song in the Philippines and now Im 40 and I still like it. RIP Meat Loaf :(
I'm from Germany and this was the first song ever I recorded from the radio. I didn't know any English at 7 yo but this song just captivated me from the very first Moment. Im 36 now and it's still one of my favorites. 2 yrs ago I was on a trip to the Baltic sea with my sister and nieces and when this came on in my playlist she turned the volume up and shushed her kids and we had beautiful 8 something minutes together, just belting out the lyrics together, doing the drums and all that. This song was my very first 💕
One of my online local Facebook friends who is 20 years older than I seriously asked me who meat loaf was 40mn ago. He posted a status saying if you were going on a cruise or stranded on an island and could only bring 4 artist cds with you to listen to who would you choose ? I chose AeroSmith, red hot chilli peppers, Nirvana and Meat loaf. He seriously asked me who meat loaf is.....how does he not know he is nearly 20 yr older than I am!!
There are very few singers who sounded the same when they sing live and recorded like in MTVs… and Meatloaf is one of those very few. No auto tune… pure talent and emotions. You are terribly missed.
@@thepolarcool1 maybe in recent years yes he doesn't sound so good live anymore but especially in the 70s and 90s he performed well most times. This playlist proves it th-cam.com/play/PLCH7z5BZWVQpDu2GoG-keN0_CcMoZHoJ6.html
He was a Rock Bombast, his voice was outstanding, never see such a performer like him!! R.I.P. Meat Loaf you are my Heroe from the first beginning My tears will never stop.......
He had the voice he had so much talent! Glad I was teen when he started out I loved his music! Sad we have lost him. Thanks for the music it made my teen years more memorable!
An absolute legend in both music and on screen too. many people just how much acting he did but of course he will for those crazy vocals. Rip to a true gem I hope wherever you are that you're happy
A voice that had the power to keep you transfixed. Around the world people will have memories of a time a place when they were hooked to his voice, power and raw talent . R.I.P.
The Album Bat Out Of Hell Hooked me to this Rock called Opera and I was instantly a Fan. His Performance in Rocky Horror Picture show Changed the world to anyone who new his music.
I listend to his songs found them good now i am 66 and i can say now he was a great performer and singer i dont now iff he is but he should be in the hall off fame
I cried, shed a tear for meatloaf when I heard the news of his passing. I didn't cry for my grandparents when they died. He got me through high school and impacted my life with his music. I am so grateful for meatloaf.
Why can't we have performances like this these days? And women like Patti headlining the charts? She looks so beautiful and has the voice of an angel! I know a lot of people, myself included, who would give anything to see a performance like this today.
Please give some credit to the Neverland Express Bat II version and his longtime musical director, Steve Buslowe (the fuzzy-haired dance machine, singer, awesome Bass player) in the embroidered shirt. Steve filled the sound, the stage space, and our hearts. Why, Meat?? It WILL never be the same!!
That's the difference between Stage singer's and popstars. Patti like all of Meatloaf's singers at the time were all from the Stage. Ellen Foley, Carla DeVito a few others & Patti Russo.
Sadly for today´s generations...this music is gone
The artist are gone, the music will live on forever.
Not at all a lot of , younger people like this one ..
No, IT’S RIGHT HERE ON TH-cam!!🎉😂
@@josephgabriel2336 👍 thanks
One of the only people who could ever do opera, theatre, and rock n roll while telling you a story you couldn’t stop listening to. A truly legendary performer! RIP big meat!
This is what opera should be. When I first heard it when it came out, I loved; now, watching this video, I got chills.
rock opera was his thing for sure.
Very well said,... Meat Loaf will never be duplicated, he had it all!!
True words here.
RIP Meat Loaf 🌍💔
Truly right. I saw him live in Frankfurt (Germany), a lot of years ago with his "back out of hell-tour".The best live-concert ever. We all were sad, wenn it ended. RIP MEAT.

He made some of the greatest songs ever. Thank you Meat Loaf! RIP
one of the greatest songs ever 28 bo1 countriiies u kidding me No genius
Very passionate performance. Music today is awful. It will never be the same as it was then. He will be missed by all.
Pop music is awful. There are some amazing musicians today, but most of them don't get as much spotlight thanks to corporate BS.
You took the words right out of my mouth!
I'm 62 just lost my wife in June 12 2024 we love this music

One that never went to drugs or alcohol. Brilliant
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Michael Aday aka Meat Loaf, had some serious issues over the years with cocaine and alcohol. He overcame them and I believe he was sober for a long time by the time he died. Drug addiction is a disease which is all too easy to catch in the world of Rock & Roll. No shame, though!

Was he born again ? Hope so.
@@pacingtiger8750my only addiction is the assholes like you that people have to put up with
He never got the recognition he deserved of being a awesome singer
Agreed to me he is one of the greats
he sold his albums in over 40 milions copies, so i wouldn't say he wasn't recognised as much as he should be

I was about 12-13yrs old when I heard this song in the Philippines and now Im 40 and I still like it.
RIP Meat Loaf :(
I'm from Germany and this was the first song ever I recorded from the radio. I didn't know any English at 7 yo but this song just captivated me from the very first Moment. Im 36 now and it's still one of my favorites. 2 yrs ago I was on a trip to the Baltic sea with my sister and nieces and when this came on in my playlist she turned the volume up and shushed her kids and we had beautiful 8 something minutes together, just belting out the lyrics together, doing the drums and all that. This song was my very first 💕
Gone are the days of real music that you can feel not only listen to and this song really brings back memories
I always got chills watching this - mesmerizing. Larger than life.
The most underrated artist of this century. This should have been made into a movie.
You are 100% right. He is an outstanding artist, a classic painter of music. I admire him. Not only for this song.
Michael Wiblinger ..
He does have a movie
It was called to hell and back the meatloaf story
One of my online local Facebook friends who is 20 years older than I seriously asked me who meat loaf was 40mn ago. He posted a status saying if you were going on a cruise or stranded on an island and could only bring 4 artist cds with you to listen to who would you choose ? I chose AeroSmith, red hot chilli peppers, Nirvana and Meat loaf.
He seriously asked me who meat loaf is.....how does he not know he is nearly 20 yr older than I am!!
There are very few singers who sounded the same when they sing live and recorded like in MTVs… and Meatloaf is one of those very few. No auto tune… pure talent and emotions. You are terribly missed.
I love how Jim Steinman always writes these big operatic sounding songs.
Wagner was his hero, so it makes sense.
Sounds like a Queen song
Not often you hear a live version that's just as good as the studio recording, But that just shows how amazing Meatloaf really is.
Well Meat Loaf usually sounds like ass live to be fair.
My my my
@@thepolarcool1 maybe in recent years yes he doesn't sound so good live anymore but especially in the 70s and 90s he performed well most times. This playlist proves it

He was a Rock Bombast, his voice was outstanding, never see such a performer like him!! R.I.P. Meat Loaf you are my Heroe from the first beginning
My tears will never stop.......
Jim Steinman... Thanks for the incredible lyrics. A legend in the industry. R.I.P.
I could be listening this song for
20.000 times with no pauses and each single time I would have the same huge emotions and goosebumps
He had the voice he had so much talent! Glad I was teen when he started out I loved his music! Sad we have lost him. Thanks for the music it made my teen years more memorable!
'Will you hose me down with holy water, if I get too hot?' Remains one of the best lines in music history.

An absolute legend in both music and on screen too. many people just how much acting he did but of course he will for those crazy vocals. Rip to a true gem I hope wherever you are that you're happy
A voice that had the power to keep you transfixed. Around the world people will have memories of a time a place when they were hooked to his voice, power and raw talent .
R.I.P.
The Album Bat Out Of Hell Hooked me to this Rock called Opera and I was instantly a Fan. His Performance in Rocky Horror Picture show Changed the world to anyone who new his music.
I listend to his songs found them good now i am 66 and i can say now he was a great performer and singer i dont now iff he is but he should be in the hall off fame
Rest in peace. Now the angels hear your divine music.
I cried, shed a tear for meatloaf when I heard the news of his passing. I didn't cry for my grandparents when they died. He got me through high school and impacted my life with his music. I am so grateful for meatloaf.
Why can't we have performances like this these days? And women like Patti headlining the charts? She looks so beautiful and has the voice of an angel! I know a lot of people, myself included, who would give anything to see a performance like this today.
Please give some credit to the Neverland Express Bat II version and his longtime musical director, Steve Buslowe (the fuzzy-haired dance machine, singer, awesome Bass player) in the embroidered shirt. Steve filled the sound, the stage space, and our hearts. Why, Meat?? It WILL never be the same!!
ThunderStomp Patty is married to actor Robbie benson
Robby Benson is married to Karla DeVito who toured the original Bat Out Of Hell album with Meatloaf.
That's the difference between Stage singer's and popstars. Patti like all of Meatloaf's singers at the time were all from the Stage. Ellen Foley, Carla DeVito a few others & Patti Russo.

This shows that real talent dosent need makeup, audiotune or short skirts, his talent is flawless.
The combo of Meatloaf and Jim Steinman was lightning in a bottle…
💔💔😪
