Meat Loaf worked with songwriter / lyricist Jim Steinman who has a love of grandeloquent classical music in the vein of Wagner, so a lot of the song end up being broad in scope and very story driven. You gotta hear Paradise By Dashboard Lights.
welcome to the Meatloaf Fan family , once seen and hooked , yes most of the songs are very dramatic, all are sung with outstanding performance by meatloaf and band, try "Good girls go to heaven" or "You took the words right out of my mouth" before you try "Paradise by the dashboard lights" as its a very long song with more dramatic changes.
Paradise by the dashboard lights and bat out of hell, which is the title track for their 1st album. I would do anything for love is on their 2nd album-back into hell
Its Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman, its totally over the top, theatrical and utterly magnificent! RIP Jim and Meat Loaf, what a wonderful legacy you have left us. You're right, an experience! There is plenty more to come ❤❤
Loved your reaction! This song was my introduction to Meat Loaf, almost 30 years ago when I was six years old. I'm pretty sure my face looked something like yours when I heard that incredible, beautiful, soaring Voice of his for the first time.
@@charlenegodbee1202 yes, it was from his "come back" album, "Bat Out Of Hell II", which was released in 1993(I still have both, the audio tape, and the CD, from the 90's, when they both came out, at different time's, as CD's weren't as big, for album's, in 93'). After Meatloaf did the acting in the British movie, along with I believe 2 or 3 american actor's/actresses, and the rest of the cast being British, that is 1 of the most iconic movie's of the Halloween time era, that theater's host showing's of it, so people can actually come dressed up as the character's, and act out the movie, as it's playing! The movie is called "Rocky Horror Picture Show". Where, Meatloaf play's the motorcycle riding character Eddie...
Love the way that you did your reaction. You let us enjoy the video without interruption . Too many are constantly pausing the video so they can talk and talk. All of Meatloaf's songs are so dramatic and take you on a journey that allows you to feel a part of it. Again, thank you for your reaction. You are doing it right.
The radio edit was cut all the way down to 5:25 - even this is a heavily edited version as the full song is TWELVE MINUTES LONG. Meat Loaf and songwriter Jim Steinman were a tour de force when they worked together, though Steinman also had smashes with Bonnie Tyler (Total Eclipse of the Heart), Air Supply (Making Love (Out Of Nothing At All); though Bonnie Tyler did a cover that blows theirs out of the water), and Céline Dion (It's All Coming Back To Me Now). A lot of Steinman's work, both with and without Meat, was intended as part of a massive project which eventually evolved into the "Bat Out Of Hell" musical. And yes - VERY theatrical. Also, this video was directed by MICHAEL F'N BAY - though it's clearly Steinman's concept.
It was directed by Michael Bay!!! Also, the scene that the female lead (not the actual singer) is involved with the other three women is taken from " Bram Stoker's Dracula." By Francis Ford Coppola, 1992. The video came out in '93. Great video and fabulous song 🎵!!!!!
The actress is Dana Patrick and her lines were sung by an English singer, Lorraine Crosby who got no credit for her role in the album as her audition was a trial, according to Wiki. In other MeatLoaf videos, you will see an actress lip syncing the music as Ellen Foley who sang all the songs was starring in Night Court and couldn't get time off to tour. Bat Out Of Hell needs to be next! And Paradise By The Dashboard Light too!
Hi Pink i just found you today, Meatloaf has great songs. I please need you to listen to " Deep Purple " Sweet Child in Time. Ian Gillian voice will blow you away. Pink im hooked now to listening to you .....and seeing the Expression on your face im loving it. I grew up with so many rock bands so i know so so many of them. Keep rockin Pink ⚘️
Yes totally, deliciously OTT. Jim Steinman was a musical genius and ML is a force of nature. The combination creates an emotional tsunami (the lyrics, the tempo shifts, the way ML puts everything he has into the delivery). They have been pulling me in and spitting me out the other side since 1977…saying WTH just happened??! Bat Out of Hell, Paradise by Dashboard Lights and Two Out of Three are a must. The official videos are best IMO since seeing ML perform assures the full treatment. Also OTT beautiful is I’m Gonna Love Her for Both of Us. Never seen it reviewed and it just builds and explodes.
Jim Steinman was just the most creative, inventive composer and Meatloaf was the perfect partner. The sky does not shine as brightly with both gone. Grateful for the body of work left .
R I.P. Meatloaf
The best thing about this reaction was your eyes WIDE OPEN throughtout in awe. So awesome.

There are so many great songs by meatloaf hard to pick for me the one that hits home is objects in the rear view mirror is the one I recommend
I've loved this video and song since it came out in 1991!
Good reaction Mona!😊
Wow 1991! Thanks for watching :)
I believe it was released in 1993. Cbw
Década de 80.

I haven't heard this song in a very long time.
To answer your question, that was the radio edit/short version; the album version is 12 minutes long (and vastly superior).
12 minute verson is brillant genius
Class-Sick
Another epic video you will enjoy is Jim Steinman's collaboration with Bonnie Tyler on her "Total Eclipse of the Heart".
I think this is new sound for you and you like very much 😊😊😊😊 have this song recorded on vcr since 1993 😉😉😉
A vocal masterclass showcasing impressive skills.
The longer version is even better.
Your eyes say it all
Dang, I just went back to 11th grade.
Hah! Me too! Over and over again!
It's always bothered me that two of Lorraine Crosby's versed are cut in the Music Video. It's worth listening to the album version too.
It was directed by Michael Bay!!! Also, the scene that the female lead (not the actual singer) is involved with the other three women is taken from " Bram Stoker's Dracula." By Francis Ford Coppola, 1992. The video came out in '93.
Great video and fabulous song 🎵!!!!!

Karla DeVito is the actress in those 2 videos I mentioned. She does a fantastic job!
Wow Lorraine's voice is beautiful. What a shame she didn't get credit for her role in the album.
Hi Pink i just found you today, Meatloaf has great songs.
I please need you to listen to " Deep Purple " Sweet Child in Time.
Ian Gillian voice will blow you away.
Pink im hooked now to listening to you .....and seeing the Expression on your face im loving it.
I grew up with so many rock bands so i know so so many of them.
Keep rockin Pink ⚘️
Yes totally, deliciously OTT. Jim Steinman was a musical genius and ML is a force of nature. The combination creates an emotional tsunami (the lyrics, the tempo shifts, the way ML puts everything he has into the delivery). They have been pulling me in and spitting me out the other side since 1977…saying WTH just happened??! Bat Out of Hell, Paradise by Dashboard Lights and Two Out of Three are a must. The official videos are best IMO since seeing ML perform assures the full treatment. Also OTT beautiful is I’m Gonna Love Her for Both of Us. Never seen it reviewed and it just builds and explodes.
Enjoyed watching your reaction!
The video was a play on Beauty and the Beast with hints of Dracula and Phantom of the Opera. His vocals are phenomenal.
Great song and a great reaction!
Epic!
Jim Steinman was just the most creative, inventive composer and Meatloaf was the perfect partner. The sky does not shine as brightly with both gone. Grateful for the body of work left .
Rest in peace meatloaf. This is short version. The album version is over 13 minutes
I miss you brother! This song is the Greatest example of how a man madly in love with a woman feels .
This was number 1 28 contries singlle longer version on albulm alubum was also no 1 as well as single this was a genius song
Give his "Love By The Dashboard Light" a listen for a little teenage angst and humor. Sure you'll enjoy it.
Just subscribed.

Lynnwood 😈 Brian- ok pink metal you like Meatloaf? He was awesome!
Lynnwood 😈 Brian- listen too 2 out of 3 aint bad or paradise by the dashboard light.
This was the radio version.
Love you Mona😋😋😋😋😋😋🍑🍑🍑❤️❤️😘😘😘😘😘😘
Already shorted, its a song when the DJ needed a bathroom break
I would do anything for love, except forget my values.
This actually is the short version...
Journey any song
Meat Loaf besides being a great singer has around 55 acting credits.
Bat out of hell and two out three ain't bad are great songs too.
That's not the original singer she lip sync add Meatloaf songs are a lot longer one of his songs were almost half an hour
