FIRST TIME REACTING TO | MEATLOAF "I'D DO ANYTHING FOR LOVE" REACTION

[@G-y_m]

This is one of the best reactions of this song I've seen

[@nicholasbrunetti2956]

I saw meatloaf at the tower theater in Philly in March of 1977..... It was a performance, I'll never forget..... r.i.p Meatloaf......

[@kecenavrtep]

Does he looks like Bat Out of Hell?

[@michaelreeder9931]

Meat Loafs performances are like rock opera.Meat Loaf is the stage name of the lead singer. For meat Loaf you should always check out the videos, as the performance is as important as the song itself. "paradise by the Dashboard lights", Bat out of Hell", and "Dead Ringer for Love" , featuring Cher, are good places to start. Great reaction to a great artist. RIP Meat Loaf.

It's lovely to see someone discovering Meatloaf (the male singer) for the first time. He died in January 2022, just a year ago. His album "Bat Out of Hell" is one of the best-selling ever. And yes, he's known for really expressive performances.

Meatloaf's songs are like mini operas, and always awesome

[@farfromperfek]

Meatloaf is the lead singer. His real name is Michael Lee Aday. He was a stage actor (Rocky Horror Picture Show & Fight Club) who with his fellow theater "geeks" created a touring theater based band. Which is why his music is so dramatic. The pianist Jim Stenman wrote the music as a theater performance as well. Paradise by the Dash Board lights and Two out of Three ain't bad are his two biggest songs. Steinman also wrote Bonny Taylor's "Total Eclipse of the Sun"(which was from a stage show he was writing about Vampires. In an interview Steinman said what he won't do is different for each person. We all have different lines we won't cross.

There are seven things Meat Loaf won't do, in this song. The first four are mentioned at the beginning of each chorus: 1) But I'll never forget the way you feel right now, oh no, no way.. 2) But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight.. 3) But I'll never do it better than I do it with you, so long, so long.. 4) But I'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life, no way.. The remaining three are responses to his lady: Lady: 5) After a while, you'll forget everything. It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling 6) And you'll see that it's time to move on Meat Loaf: I won't do that- no, I won't do that Lady: I know the territory, I've been around. It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down. 7) And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around Meat Loaf: I won't do that- no, I won't do that..

[@Briansgate]

you just missed the very first "I'll never lie to you, and that's a fact"

[@DavidRomigJr]

I think one of my favorite Meat Loaf stories is: at one time Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman were suing each other, neither was allowed to talk to the other. One day, Meat Loaf called up Jim, they chatted, they started working on Bat out of Hell 2. They didn’t care that they were not allowed to talk to each other. It was actually their representatives that were suing each other, and they just ignored them because they were friends and held no animosity towards each other. And that led to a new album. I just find that kind of epic.

[@mirozen_]

Meatloaf was simply one of the nicest guys around. Incredibly talented, but the thing that stood out about him for me was that he was just a really good guy.

[@markbrinson6090]

What he won't do is a verse before. Ex. I will never stop dreaming of you ever night of my life. So he will never stop dreaming of her. Meatloaf is him, a nickname from when he was younger because of size. Jim Steinman is the writer of the majority of his songs. Sadly we have lost both of them. If you have ever watched Rocky Horror Picture Show he is Eddie that comes out of the freezer on a motorcycle.

[@dvsreed]

Meatloaf was an amazing performer and had a hell of a voice too!! The music video is on another level, I recommend watching that. There's actually TWO things in the music video he won't do...."screwing around" which was mentioned in this performance....also "move on" is the other thing he won't do!! So you were correct in your assumption :)

[@boosuedon]

The girls name is Patty Russo. Patty sang on all of Meatloafs albums and most of his specials and shows from 1995 until "Meat" put down the microphone. She did have limited success as a solo artist but she just couldn't find that "break out song" that would catapult her to stardom. I agree, she has a very solid bad ass voice! By the way, Meatloaf got his name from his father when he was young. Michael was always a large presence in a crowd and not the sharpest tool in the shed. (I say that with love!). His dad started calling him "MEAT", maybe due to Archie Bunker and All In The Families Rob Ryners character, "Meathead". Anyway, at some point the name got stretched out to "Meatloaf". New artists are always searching for an unusual name that will stand out to the public and Mike chose to embrace "Meatloaf" for his stage name. THANKS DAD!

[@mikefairsea5898]

The information that I have is that the female singer on the Bat Out Of Hell album is Ellen Foley. According to the DVD documentary about this album it was claimed that Ellen Foley could not tour and Patty Russo was chosen to tour in her place and perform her role. On the DVD video of Bat Out Of Hell and which appears on youtube Patty Russo is in fact miming to Foley's vocals. The DVD documentary previously mentioned indicates that Foley was 'put out' because as she was not seen in the videos she did not get the appropriate recognition for her vocals. I have the original Record of the Bat Out Of Hell album which I purchased in 1978 and also the CD. Patty Russo is not mentioned at all in the credits whereas Ellen Foley is credited as the background female vocalist. I had no idea what Ellen Foley looked like until I saw the DVD documentary as on the cover of the Record and CD of Bat Out Of Hell only her back is shown whilst she is the arms of Jim Steinman. I mention all this to give credit to Ellen Foley because I believe her vocals on the Bat Out Of Hell album are outstanding. Regards.

[@boosuedon]

@@mikefairsea5898 Elaine couldn't tour with Meatloaf because she got a co-starring role in a TV series, "Night Court". You are correct that Elaine sang on the "Bat Out Of Hell" Lp but she chose acting over singing. Patty sang on Meatloafs albums from 1995 on. That doesn't mean that she was always the principal female lead, but I think that she was.

[@boosuedon]

@@mikefairsea5898 The girl that actually did go on tour with Meatloaf for the "Bat Out Of Hell" tour was Karla something, I can't remember her last name, but it is Karla and not Patty that is lip synching to Elaines vocals from the album. Again, Patty didn't join Meatloaf until 1995.

[@mikefairsea5898]

@@boosuedon Thanks. It's been about twenty or so years ago that I bought the DVD documentary I mentioned and about that long since I viewed it. All I know is that virtually everyone that comments on the Bat Out Of Hell album videos praise the vocals of the female artist and many claim it is Patty Russo. Without viewing the documentary again I assumed it was her in the videos but you mentioning the name 'Karla' does ring a bell. I shall have to watch it again to make sure. The album was so out there that many leading recording labels wouldn't touch it. From memory Todd Rundgren eventually financed and produced it. Todd Rundgren is the guitarist and as there had been quite a few car crash songs in previous years Steinman wanted to write the ultimate motor bike crash song. He mentioned that he wanted the sound of a motor bike in the song and Todd Rundgren proceeded to play the sound of a motor cycle on his guitar which is amazing. Anyway, this old Aussie man introduced his 74 year old mother in 1978 to the album and she loved it. He introduced his nephews and nieces to it also and two of them became life long Meat Loaf fans attending a number of his shows when he toured Australia. I was at one of his shows in the mid 1980's when Meat Loaf fell off the stage and broke his leg. It was his 'Bad Attitude' tour. As I mentioned before I think it is sad that Ellen Foley doesn't get any credit nowadays for her contribution. Regards.

[@boosuedon]

@@mikefairsea5898 Thank you sir, and I have to confess that I had to go back and Google Karlas' name. It is Karla DaVito who did the "Bat Out Of Hell" tour with Meatloaf and it was also Karla lip syncing on the "Paradise by The Dashboard Lights" video. Patti Russo got screwed too as she was the female singer on Meatloafs ONLY Grammy win song, "I Would Do Anything For Love". They didn't think that Patti was pretty enough to be in the MTV video so they hired some Goddess model to be in the video, lip syncing to Patti Russo. I was really disappointed that Meatloaf didn't stand up for Patti and demand that she do the video! I think the girl is pretty damn cute! I've got to say that the video is very good, playing on the "Beauty and the Beast" theme. But that was Pattis' voice! The model actually was approached by record companies for a singing contract! She had to decline. That had to make Patti smile!

[@Jessedog11]

"Paradise by the dashboard light" is his best. I saw meatloaf in February 1987 in february out in Hamptons NY, dead of winter. I was the first of my group of friends to buy a car , i was the ride, so i was dragged into it, im so glad i was!!! Maybe 150 people tops in some same club called The Bay street club. he was absolutely amazing. he was hanging out with the crowd slamming beers and chillin. He loved his fans, and they loved him. RIP Meat. thanks for the beautiful memories .

[@ronburgardt6495]

Meatloaf (Michael Lee Aday) was a stage actor/ singer before his rock music career. That experience shows in his songs. They are very theatrical in style and production, and he retained that powerful theater voice and enunciation. The line "I won't do that" always throws off first-time listeners. It refers to the line preceding it (I'll never forget the way you feel right now), etc. You'd be blown away by the story telling of the video of this song.

Meatloaf's voice is unique. It is instantly recognizable. Many od his songs come across as stage, or operatic in nature. rather than for albums, or radio. I believe he was in Rocky Horror Picture Show, as well as other rock operas. Such talent, and passion.

You got me hon, you are not only stunning but smart and I love your comments. You are always right on.

He has stated that everyone misses it. He will not forget who he felt at the beginning. Meatloaf has been in over 50 movies and some as himself.

He was rock opera before we even knew that was a word. All of his songs are not just music but experiences.

One of my favorite songs and one of the greatest singers of all time.

[@danielnovak4284]

Thnaks for sharing this sincere reaction. I agree with you about this being theatrical. God bless you!

[@ceciliajacobs5346]

Rock Opera at it's finest. Meatloaf is the name of the male singer.

[@terricollins4657]

Yes he will never lie to her. You can hear him sing it in the beginning of the song 😊

[@daylocke6181]

He was the master of Rock Opera, he was the GOAT

I love your reaction. There will be no other like him
