Michael Lee Aday (born Marvin Lee Aday; September 27, 1947 - January 20, 2022), known professionally as Meat Loaf, was an American singer and actor known for his powerful, wide-ranging voice and theatrical live shows. He is one of the best selling music artists in history. R.I.P.

You have to remember, that this song speaks from an era, when women didn't give up their virginity without thought. They wanted commitment, but , men/boys in that era were just looking for experiences....and lifetime commitments wasn't on their radar for a 'roll in the hay'. Something so bitter-sweet about this song. The lyrics were pure genius.

Ellen Folley the female singer who sang with Meat Loaf on this song declined to tour , so the lady on stage is singer Karla Devito . This music video was created by synching the original voice and vocals of Ellen Folley to the performance of Karla Devito. Loved your reaction , and also loved the way you replayed the part that caught you by surprise. Meat Loaf is his stage name , not the bands name.

Back in the 1970's we called this genre Rock Opera. Some albums did the whole rock opera theme, sometimes it was just a few of the songs on an album. Meatloaf was known for his rock opera songs. : )

@@ReleaseTheQuackers I still have that album, played it one time, while recording it to a cassette tape.

[@dconley1964]

Meatloaf was a wanna be actor who auditioned for a play that Jim Steinman was producing. They became lifelong friends and Jim wrote exclusively for Meat for a while. The songs were written specifically for his voice. Bat Out Of Hell is one of the most iconic albums in history. Two people in the right place at the right time.

[@roamy3605]

I've heard a lot of really great duets in my life (68 years old). This has to be one of the best. Most duets are one singer singing and then the other singer sings their part. But the way they integrated separate parts of the song together makes this one of the all time greats. Just totally brilliant!

[@ragabashmoon1551]

So yea like others have said, Jim Steinman wrote Meat Loaf's music, but Meat Loaf himself is Marvin Lee Aday. Steinman also famously wrote Bonnie Raitt's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" which was originally written for a musical about vampires! The musical never went anywhere in most of the world, but he did find an audience in I thin it was Germany of all places.

[@Zealdave2223]

I was 15 when I first heard Bat out of hell. I am was in my late 20's when I first saw him in concert (Bat out of Hell 2) He was a powerhouse and at his best on stage. In the early days it was said that he gave so much that after the show he would collapse and was given oxygen. That's why they call it Rock Opera, it is like Opera it tells a story with song and acting, but instead it is now with rock.

I'm so glad this made it on KZbin. I'm glad you liked him. I would do anything, for love is a must.

[@acorrado5529]

I enjoyed your reaction- thanks! This is a genre of music referred to as a rock opera because it was so theatrical. Meat Loaf is the singer (his real name is Marvin Lee Aday but his football coach in high school called him Meat Loaf because of his weight) and the brilliant lyrics to all of his songs were written by his best friend, Jim Steinman. Jim Steinman also wrote some of the best power rock ballads of the 1980's and made other artists stars but most people did not realize that Jim Steinman wrote the songs. I would highly recommend that you check out Meat Loaf's "Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad" and "Hot Summer Night/Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth" official videos to see Meat Loaf perform live while Jim Steinman is playing piano next to him ( Jim Steinman has a speaking cameo in the beginning of "Hot Summer Night/Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth"). You looked a bit confused by the baseball analogy in the middle as it was a common crude analogy of teenage boys about how far they got with a girl (first base- making out; home run or score was going all the way). Jim Steinman sadly passed away about three months before Meat Loaf did- RIP to two legends!

Jim was a stellar writer of the rock opera genre, and Meatloaf was the perfect voice and stage presence to interpret it!

[@jimsteinmanfan80]

This is like a short rock opera. Go watch the video to "Objects in the Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are", that is a whole short film. Michael Bay, the director of such films as Transformers, Pearl harbor, Bad boys and 6 underground with Ryan Reynolds directed three videos for Meatloaf of which that is the best. Meat Loaf is himself a film actor with over 40 roles most notably in The Rocky Horror picture show and Fight club but I think he might have done his best job here where he is playing a characters who had an abusive father, just like Meat himself had.

[@jhilal2385]

Baseball: When this song was first made, music was audio only, so he had to tell what was happening in the car to someone listening to their stereo at home. Baseball was commonly used as an analogy for high school kids to tell their friends what happened during a make-out. First base = kissing Second base = breasts Third base = bikini zone Home base = intercourse add other terms like "stealing a base", "strike out" (didn't even get to first base), being "thrown out", etc.

[@donovanlindaman421]

The album this is from, Bat Out of Hell is worth a listen in its entirety. But in the mid 90’s approximately they released a follow up album. It was never released as a single but one of the most emotional songs on it was called Objects in the Rearview Mirror (May Appear Closer Than They Are). One of my favorites, the only one that could compete in my opinion is Out of the Frying Pan(and Into the Fire). The album is called Bat Out of Hell II Back Into Hell😊

[@loudelk99]

[@egk2584]

Jim Steinman wrote this. He wrote a lot of great songs you'd probably like. The baseball game serves a dual purpose. Rounding the bases is a metaphor for making out/sex, plus a game is the kine of thing that might have come on the car radio at night. :)

[@maryjones1]

Meatloaf was very theatrical, was in various acting roles, and classically trained. He once said that he was an Actor first, and Siinger second. He was very talented, original and entertaining. Karla and him together were a good match. I love this video. RIP Thank you for responding to this video in such a unique manner, without constant interruptions of the viewing, as most do. 😊

[@adrianboardman162]

Remember, this was released in the 70's, to get away with the explicit stuff (the making out), Baseball (first base, second and so on) was used, but it works as that's on the original track. It was a clever way of giving a visual video without it getting too graphic, and subtle enough for younger viewers to not quite understand, but the parents immediately get it. It's kind of a Pantomime trick, a show written for families, but full of dirty jokes that only the grown ups will get.

[@smokeynewton]

So many places this could have gone wrong and yet it's perfect. It's a masterpiece.

[@chris...9497]

This is one of those songs describing a period that occurred but was common before you were born, Mia. The song begins with a middle-aged man in the 'present day' (the year the song was released, 1977) recounting the night that he and his girlfriend lost their virginity to each other. They had gone 'parking', as many young people did in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s. They drove out to an isolated area (in their case, near a local lake) and got down to business. Often when you went parking, you left the radio on paying softly in the background, to take the edge off the silence, and the radio would also contribute a soft glow from the car's dashboard. You might listen to music or maybe a sports game. They had a baseball game on and school was still in session, so it was somewhere between April and June. They were both 17, so someone maybe 35 in 1977 would be 17 in 1959-60. Notice the song's music is in the style of 1960 rock & roll. So, the baseball game is relevant for three reasons. -They're listening to a spring major league baseball game on the radio, providing the soundtrack for their make out session. -Baseball is a longstanding American metaphor for the progress of the sexual act (1st base, 2nd base, 3rd base, and sliding into home base). -Young men, especially back in that day, prolonged their performance by distracting themselves mentally by imagining baseball plays or running through baseball stats. Likely the flashes shown of the game reflects what the guy is paying in his imagination. (Note: It's an impressive 'get' to have the baseball announcer being the nationally famous Phill Rizzuto, a NY Yankees shortstop who became the voice of the NY Yankees for several decades, from the late 1950s onward.) In 1960, the girlfriend is very validly concerned about a number of issues. -Girls who went 'all the way' got a reputation that could leave them unmarriageable. -Young girls had no access to birth control, so there was a real possibility of getting pregnant; also, legal abortion was about 15 years in the future. -Some girls were disowned, kicked out of their homes, for getting pregnant. -Women were considerably underpaid compared with men and women had few opportunities for career advancement or bank loans. -Single mothers could be refused rental residences, especially in decent/safe areas of town. So, when the girl stops him at 'home plate', she is requiring assurances before allowing him to continue. They argue. He tries to sweet-talk her, persuade her to finish. She's not having it. He gets irritated and demanding, caught up in his hormone-driven urges (I think the meaning of 'Let me sleep on it' changes here from 'Let me think about it' to 'Aww, let me finish what we were doing!') He gives in, promises to marry her (and he does honor his promise). So, then we move back to 'present day' 1977, the middle-aged couple in full furious fight. So much regret has poisoned their marriage, and they're waiting for the 'end of time, so I can end my time with you'. As I understand it, Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman were working on some music and in casual conversation Meat Loaf told Jim about the night he lost his virginity, back in high school. Jim saw a song potential in that story and built this story based on (but not exactly like) Meat Loaf's experience. Brilliant songwriting by Jim Steinman, Meat Loaf's primary music collaborator.

[@Teeezze]

This is my first time seeing one of your reactions. I like your “captions”, I haven’t seen anyone else do that. 🫶 the originality! This is one of my favorite songs of all time, and one of my top picks for karaoke (as long as I have someone to sing with). I got to see Meatloaf in concert twice. The first time was when Bat Out Of Hell 2 came out and his career had a big resurgence in the 1990’s. That concert was like being at a Broadway show, full theatrical production. The second time was about 15 years later, small venue, he was no longer on the charts. His daughter, Pearl (married to Scott Ian of Anthrax), was touring with him, performing the part of Ms. Loud. It was an intimate, stripped down show. Both were incredible, and I love that I got to see him do two totally different types of performances. FYI, he put so much into his shows that they had oxygen tanks just off stage. He always needed it at the end, sometimes during the show, as well.

[@chargelliott]

I was on the edge of my seat, wanting to see how you'd react to this. This is one of my favorite songs by Meatloaf. You truly missed a treat seeing him in person. He would literally take strangers from the audience and have a girl straddle some guy on a desk in the middle of the stage and pretend to make out for that part. I was fortunate to watch him perform in Boston about 20 years ago. He certainly was a great performer as far back as The Rocky Horror Picture Show. If you haven't heard it yet, check out I'd Do Anything for Love. Another great one by him.

[@ronrowley9367]

Ma'am, this is the first reaction of yours I have watched, GREAT JOB!

[@r0kus]

I loved your reaction. And, yes, more Meatloaf! His theatrical voice and talent is present in almost every song.⬅ Others have already mentioned that this type of song with in-depth, theatrical, story telling is known as rock opera. Another classification is that it is, in classical music terms, a "rhapsody", just as is Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. That is one non-consistent piece with entirely different segments than somehow work together to form a cohesive whole.

[@isebmazo2140]

Karla and Ellen put out a song last year together. Title slips my mind just now

[@StormCrow42]

Michael Lee Aday (Meatloaf) is the male singer. Most of his biggest hits were composed by Jim Steinman (who appears in this video on piano). Karla Devito is the woman performing in the video, but the lyrics were recorded by Ellen Folley as they've sync'd the album audio to this video. The baseball references are due to the old practice of rating how far a girl would let you go by how many bases you could get (first base: kissing, second base: some petting, etc.) The announcer's voice is actually a famous play-by-play baseball announcer. Other videos to react to by him are "Two out of three ain't bad" and "Bat out of Hell" (both from the same album as this). Also "I Would Do Anything for Love" (from a bit later in his career).

Mr. Loaf RIP, was rock opera. His songs all tell a story and many flow from one to another. I would do anything for love but I won't do that was one of his biggest hits with a comeback album, Bat out of hell two. He sang so hard he had to take long breaks to heal between tours. His name Meatloaf was a nickname because of his look growing up. He also did a number of movies including one musical, Rocky Horror Picture Show. His style is all his own and most carry a dark undertone that touches the heart.

You dipped you foot in the Meatloaf pond , now's the time to take a swim , there is a ocean full of great songs , all with a story to them . " I would do anything for love" and " because of you" also "two out of three ain't bad" are good one to start with

They were both so talented. You have to see the humour in it but I do love watching peoples reaction to it.
