Jim Steinman wrote most of Meatloafs songs, an absolutely legendary songwriter.

[@ameyer1970]

Only did Jim wrote most of the sings, that is also Jim on the piano

[@vanyadolly]

Such a gift to music, and he found the perfect singers to pair with in Meatloaf and Bonnie Tyler. For years I'd been puzzled over why I like No Matter What by Boyzone so much, and it turns out Steinman wrote it 😂

[@kenharness1417]

​@@vanyadollyHe also wrote "Making Love Out of Nothing at All" by Air Supply.

[@lizodams]

Steinman was a legend. Check out Fire Incorporated Tonight is What it Means to be Young, or Nowhere Fast. Total Eclipse if the Heart by Bonnie Tyler, the list is endless. But he has a distinctive sound.

[@NickiTwix]

@@kenharness1417I love that song so much

[@scifimonkey3]

One of the greatest rock songs ever written as far as I am concerned.

[@michaelasay8587]

...what? What about Zepp and hundred's of other songs??

[@polmus]

@@michaelasay8587 This is definitely amongst them. As he said, and I'm with him on this, it's one of the greatest rock songs ever. Obviously there's some taste involved as well, but yeah, it's up there.

[@zyffyr]

I would call Meatloaf's music Operatic Rock.

[@Bridgercraft]

I'd say theatrical rock

[@springerjkreb]

Meat and Steinman called it Wagnerian Rock themselves

[@MikePhillips-pl6ov]

Incredible guitar work by Todd Rundgren who even made those motorcycle sounds with guitar.

[@kennay1232]

something/anything? is awesome

[@billbitterman9487]

He was also the producer and majorly responsible for the sound of that album. Piano ion the album is Roy Bittan of the E-Street band. Todd did the motorcycle sounds and right into the solo in one take. Todd is a musical genius!

[@codexdelux]

@@billbitterman9487 Lot of E-street people on the album if i remember correctly, which is funny cause Steinmans goal with the album was to out-Springsteen Springsteen :D

[@thomask6681]

Jim Steinman is the pianist in his videos. RIP to both.

[@carolinekennedy3689]

My late older brother played this whole LP over and over in 1978-1980 and I was so glad he did! Introduced the legendary Meat Loaf to me; my favourite rock singer and a true performer showing emotion and passion on stage (so pleased to have seen him perform live 🙏🏻)

[@daveloboda1769]

Every Meatloaf song is an event. The combination of Jim Steinman's writing and Meatloaf's voice is perfect.

[@aljoseph5705]

You should react to Meat Loaf as Eddie singing Hot Patootie in Rocky Horror Picture Show (movie clip)

[@Proud.American58]

Just saw this comment @aljoseph5705 so true! That song and “Time Warp” are my two favorite songs from the play and movie !

[@codexdelux]

Bless my soul, yes they should :D

[@Proud.American58]

@@codexdelux Whatever happened to Saturday Night !!

[@doplinger1]

I think his most epic track is “For Cryin’ Out Loud” from the same album.

[@Proud.American58]

One of the greatest albums of all time. Several of the songs were meant to be used in a rock opera being created by Jim Steinman. Every track on this album is great. One of my faves is one of the least unknown songs on the album. It’s “For Crying Out Loud”. #trashtalkers #meatloaf #meat loaf #jimsteinman #batoutofhell

[@vanyadolly]

This song! It's one of those things where every now and then I remember how lucky I am to live in a world where Bat out of Hell exists.

[@DreddFoxx1]

So glad you did the full version!

[@Wilss]

Definitely. Too many people watch the video version which chops off the epic 2 minute intro.

[@ladynightmare7401]

The song is actually about a motorcycle crash, according to Jim Steinman (the genius who wrote it). Jim wanted it to depict the ultimate crash, to the point where the rider's heart bursts out of his chest, and he sees it beating before he dies. "I'll be gone when the morning comes" refers to him leaving his lover and his inevitable death.

[@DaniBlazin]

“Objects In The Rearview Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are” is another solid, tearjerker of a Meat Loaf tune 🎸 🎹

[@paulqueripel3493]

That reminds me of the farside cartoon, where it says that on the mirror, but all you can see in it is an enormous eye.

[@ladynightmare7401]

That song continues to bring a tear to my eye. The video and the song are beautiful

[@BluenoserJo]

Meatloaf said this was the ultimate motorcycle crash song. RIP Meatloaf

[@OriginalLictre]

The unknowing prophecy the character singing gives, that by the crack of dawn he'd be gone... Listen to the lyrics, and he has a motorcycle crash and is dying as the sun comes up. Repeated lyric that starts the motorcycle crash. "And I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late!" at about 13:35 in the video. He wasn't riding off at the end of the song, he was DYING!

[@gabe8390]

‼‼ Paradise by the Dashboard Light‼‼1978

[@takeyourheart3030]

YES.

[@karenglenn6707]

This came out In Australia when I was 17. I can’t remember what I did yesterday but cane still remember all of the lyrics to this entire album! What a blessing to have been alive in the best time for music!

[@MsPoeticVisions]

This CD was in my car for years. Steinman and Meatloaf melded in a way very few have. I wish I had a video of myself the first time I listened to this CD. I was in complete awe. Thanks for a trip down memory lane and a great reaction guys.

[@mercedogre]

you should check out the Meatloaf/Cher duet "Dead ringer for love"

[@vanyadolly]

It's so funny. 😂 Really shows off both Steinman's writing and two singers who can keep up with it

[@mercedogre]

Meatloafs daughter married Scott Ian, guitarist from Antranx

[@polmus]

Can anyone listen to this without being absolutely amazed by the musical talent that spirits the entire song, it's just brilliant!

[@Darkstarkaizer]

Jim steinman was a classical trained pianist.

[@proudarmymom8657]

This entire album is a masterpiece!!

[@brianwilson2789]

Huge Meatloaf fan here. Meatloaf considered himself an actor. That was his calling. When he sang, he became a character, like method actors do. Each song, he became a new character. That is why he is so theatrical. I believe he liked the term “Wagnerian Rock” as his music was very operatic. He got his powerful voice from his mother who was a gospel singer in Texas. She died young, his alcoholic dad tried to kill him and he hitched his way to LA with his guitar. Met Jim Steinman doing small plays. Jim was a pianist and wrote the songs and Meatloaf belted them out. They broke up and were never as good alone. They tried to reunite but it was never the same. Bat Out of Hell was the prefect song at the perfect time for them.

[@user-zu1kk3nt4r]

Raspberries (eric Carmen just passed away), cream, bread, Red hot chili peppers 🌶

[@lordjanos1970]

there was a Meat Loaf movie called To Hell and Back released in 2000.

[@thomasdaugherty6671]

Meatloaf was a Dallas boy. Before he appeared in Rocky Horror Picture Show he starred in the cult classic 'Roadie' as a truck driver who hauled concert tour equipment from show to show for a number of different my musical artists who appear throughout the movie that became pretty big over the years. Definitely worked checking out.

[@danrudnick5252]

Man, my mom loved this album. I don't even know how many hours I spent riding around in the backseat of our Ford Taurus while she and a friend just cruised our boring ass town blaring Meatloaf. I hated it then, I'd give so much to go back.

[@jeffcobb2734]

Album is an epic masterpiece. Produced by Todd Rundgren who also plays guitar on it. Could have went straight to Broadway.

[@MrYossarianuk]

You guys need to watch The rocky horror picture show - Meatloaf is one of the actors/singers in it - so yes I would says he's always had a comedic side. I'd suggest watching the video 'What Ever Happened to Saturday Night' from the show.

[@jackmag4056]

14:51 always gets me , hair in the back of your neck stuff

[@carolinekennedy3689]

I feel I know the part you’re referring to without listening around the timestamp yet!

[@NORGCO]

Operatic Rock indeed, as the previous writers said. Everything I have ever heard from Meatloaf - and Jim Steinman;s writing - seems to be Rock Operatic. At least to someone who thinks of a song as the lyrics.

[@adriangreenoff9163]

Secretly played this track over and over as a kid on my big brothers stereo while he was out and it still blows my mind today.Great choice😁🤘❤

[@StarCannibal]

The motorbike sounds were actually done by a guitar.

[@sharonbunn2363]

A few years back I was stuck in traffic and put this in the CD player. I turned it up loud enough for everyone else to hear(it was summer so the windows were all open) and went nuts singing and dancing in my car. I am 60 and have long white hair. I don't know what people thought and I don't really care! xxx

In 2020 it was researched and Bat Out Of Hell was the best debut in UK history.

When i was a kid my mom use to blast this and i would do anything and we would dance around singing and air guitars. Good memories

[@douglasg.9271]

This album came out when I was in 7th grade, and was HUGE. It’s been a favorite of mine since.

[@unclephil7650]

There's a band called Bread from the 70s. Also the Raspberries are from the 70s

[@txmale1977]

And what's sad, The lead singer from the Raspberries just died, who did All by Myself and a song from Dirty Dancing as solo

Before he became Meatloaf and got famous he went by the stage name Couscous. (If you're familiar with the Chef Aid episode of South Park, you🎉🎉🎉 already knew that!

[@robwhitmer5294]

Producer was Todd Rundgren who played the motorcycle sound with his guitar on the album and taught the guitar player to do the same. Roger Powell and Kasim Sulton (Utopia) synthesizer and bass on album. Edgar Winter (Frankenstein) Sax. Max Weinberg (E Street band) drums. Ellen Foley (Night Court/Fatal Attraction was female lead, but Karla DeVito (Robbie Benson's wife) is in videos and toured with group. Quite the conglomerate.

Have 2 big JBL speakers out in my Ladies Garden Sunroom, birdies chirping away outside, sunshine on my flowers, I walk about that room closing the windows, pop on Bat Out of Hell, crank up the JBL’S and shake the glass almost to the point of breaking - those were the days 😁. Glad you guys got to zen out to this song!

Seen Meat Loaf live at the Fabulous Fox theater in Atlanta Ga, Pat Thrawl on Guitar, It was really good place was jamming.

[@donkfail1]

Being a fat guy myself, Meatloaf taught me that confidently acting like you are the sexiest man in the room you can be that. Lacking his fantastic charisma isn't helping though, so I'm working on losing that winter insulation. (Because I was prepared for an ice age...)

[@IRHRRetired]

Enjoyed your reaction to this classic. No one can manipulate emotions like Steinman (those tempo shifts and OTT lyrics) and Meat Loaf (that voice! that delivery! that voice!!!). The ending notes of BOOH leave me stunned every time. So much to love from these two! For pure dystopian fun, watch his 1998 Orlando video performance of Life is a Lemon. For a Steinman/ML take on Jessie’s Girl watch video of I’m Gonna Love Her for Both of Us. ML explodes…. No one can sell it like ML!

[@Gira21Gramos]

I am convinced that if he hadn't been treated so badly by the media because of his weight, he could have been as big as Elvis. I'm Gonna Love Her for Both of Us is proof of that.

[@zackariahplott4129]

If I remember correctly Meat Loaf, Jim Steinman and a couple of others were all into musical theater and were sitting around and decided they needed to make an album that was basically like a Broadway play.

[@cuoresportivo155]

If you listen to the whole album in the correct order, you'll find that he's talking about the woman in "paradise by the dashboard light" They have an on/off relationship. He's dying in this song and the rest of the album is his life passing before his eyes. The last song reveals, also to himself, that she was the love of his life. That's my interpretation at least

[@Gira21Gramos]

I was confused about the whole story of the album for a long time until I finally found an explanation on Reddit. I'm not sure it's 100% accurate but it goes song by song and makes it make sense.

[@cuoresportivo155]

@@Gira21Gramos To me it seems the second song to the one before last are memories, in chronological order. First time in love, first time getting cheated, getting serious about love, getting hooked and wanting out, and in the end realising he did love her, and dieing.

[@Gira21Gramos]

@@cuoresportivo155 there's a theory that the woman in Crying Out Loud and the woman in 2 Out of 3 are the same person, and also the 2 women in 2 Out of 3 are the same person, but I'm not convinced.

@@Gira21GramosI'm not convinced either, but the one in for crying out loud is the same as paradise by the dashboard lght imo. Afterall he would never leave her. And the same as in bat out of hell.

When this album came out it was EPIC!! Nothing like it before or since. Glad you did this song and not 'paradise by the dashboard light'...it's a great song but everyone does just that one.

[@jorel80]

Meatloaf probably did play some piano or other instruments, but he only performed and recorded as a vocalist/actor. He didnt write his songs but he worked closely with songwriter Jim Steinman who wrote songs specifically for Meatloaf (and other artists like Bonnie Tyler and Celine Dion). If you listen to "Total Eclipse of The Heart" or "It's All Coming Back to Me" and think they sound like Meatloaf songs, its because they are Jim Steinman songs. Go back and listen to those songs and try to imagine Meatloaf singing them and you'll know exactly what i mean.

[@-GB-9464]

Back when a lot of thought went into awesome album covers ! Totally awesome album ❤

This to me is one of the most visual songs ever,It's like Red Barchetta by Rush. I can literally close my eyes and see everything happening in both songs. Every song on this album is Amazing but this is by far my Favorite Meatloaf song ever. Shout out to Jim Steinman for the songwriting and the band as well. Every single person playing on this is a Master of their craft...

[@dalewaits1050]

Humble pie

[@lonbecker113]

Meatloaf and Jim Steinman met doing musical theater in London. Together they had the idea of doing rock as musical theater. Steinman wrote the music and Meatloaf sang it. Steinman played the piano. Their idea was that the band would be Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman. The label said that was stupid, and released it as Meat Loaf with songs by Jim Steinman. Steinman was not amused. I don't think they worked together until the Bad out of Hell 2 album more than a decade letter. Steinman also wrote the great Bonnie Tyler song Total Eclipse of the Heart. They were rather pointedly mining a variety of styles, with the only commonality that all of the songs are dramatic. (The obvious next song for you is "Two out of Three's Not Bad") This song is rooted in songs like Steppenwolf's Born to be Wild" and Springstein's "Born to Run". The other issue is death songs like the Shangri-la's Leader of the Pack and Jan and Dean's "Dead Man's Curve". (The kid's show Veggie Tales, which also did a pastice of music styles also had a send up of these rock death songs.) On the VH1 show dedicated to this album Steinman talks about the motorcycle. He says he went into the studio and complained to Todd Rundgren (who produced the album) that he had been promised a motorcycle. Rundgren picked up a guitar ran his fingers down the frets producing the motorcycle sound and said "Happy?". Rundgren produced this album and XTC's Skylarking two really great albums, but both bands seem to have left the experience hating him. Rundgren made the rock and roll hall of fame a few years back, which I think was one of their better picks because it wasn't for any one thing. He had a modest solo career, he had a band with some popularity, but not enough to get in the Hall, and he produced some great albums, but not enough to go in as a producer. But when you put it all together his contribution is worth inclusion. I do wonder if the album wouldn't be too self-indulgent without Rundgren there adding professionalism to these two young guys trying to be revolutionary.
