I usually hate videos on reaction channels because it's easy for the reactors to fall into the trap of reacting to the video rather than the song. Performance videos are exceptions to this rule, but I can see why lyric videos would be helpful (I've seen some non-american reactors get lost in the whole baseball/sex metaphor). All of that said, I would advise them to watch the video, on their own, to see how much of a performance is going on here beyond the lyrics. It is legitimately musical theater, and very well done, to see the two singers act out the song and react to one another here.

The video is back in 75…it’s a live on stage performance. Let me tell you something thats very true… There are a lot of people who will say this guy was nice etc when remembering someone.in his case? We lost a very special man. He was a genuine soul and he was so very kind and when we saw him in the lobby of the hotel for a concert and we were all saying hey , hi, how are you? Sometimes they don’t want to be bothered and he come over and spent three minutes talking to us. I could tell he was tired When your entire band and the crew, are devastated and say he was the best person to work with. He was so kind and generous and ate with us, etc That says a lot. If you ever watched him interview, he was a good soul. On stage, it was a theater production for him as he was classically trained, and did perform in theater movies….. off stage of very soft-spoken kind man He loved opera and string orchestras and you can hear it in his music

I loved your reaction you two are so real. So the story goes that Meat Loaf and Jim Steinmann approached Todd Rundgren to produce their album. They said they had the backing of a major record label. Todd said he would then the label pulled out of the deal. Todd believed in the album so much he paid for everything the studio time, the musicians everything. He also brought in he's girlfriend actress, singer Ellen Foley. and played Guitar ,Bass, and sang on the backing tracks. You really need dive in deeper into Todd Rundgren. One of the greatest songwriters of our time.

The voice of the baseball game is the legendary NY Yankees Announcer: Phil Rizzuto. Phil was also a great shortstop for the Yankees in the 1940s, and an MVP of the leadue as well. It was great they got him to do this, and he mentioned the song several times on TV while he was announcing the NY Yankee games. Great Time!
@cheewooleong5066Ай бұрын
apparently, Meatloaf didn't tell Phil Rizzuto the reason he was recording this baseball play-by-play, because taken out of the context of the song/story the baseball game is entirely plausible; then Rizzuto found out when he heard the song on the radio, but he didn't begrudge Meatloaf for having kept him in the dark about the purpose
