I don't always listen to 'Bat Out of Hell' - but when I do, so do the neighbours 🙂. Great choice you guys, this is one of the greatest opening cuts on an album ever, just grabs you and pulls you into the whole story. Peace and love from Canada!
🤣
Your comment reminded me of the beer commercial. "I don't always listen to rock music, but when I do, I listen to Meatloaf" --the most interesting man alive
Stary Strong up there.
😂
Same and they have to hear me sing every word too 🤣
Jim Steinman was the genius composer. Meatloaf brought the songs to life.
Yes , however I think Jim did a better version of some of the songs on Bat Out of Hell 2 when Meatloaf did not want to do the album . Also checkout movie Streets of Fire for some more Jim Steiman songs
Nowhere Fast ruclips.net/video/Yub3-Ow7tBs/видео.html and Tonight is What it Means to be Young
ruclips.net/video/cgaHi7IziHI/видео.html
Don't forget Bonnie Tyler's _Total Eclipse Of The Heart._ Jim was the absolute master of the power ballad, but only a few artists had the vocal power to pull them off. :-)
An epic love - hate relationship.
He wrote a lot of great songs too... Total Eclipse of the Heart and Holding Out For A Hero by Bonnie Tyler to name two more.
@@dccraig03 jim steinman did
another thing I love about Meatloaf - you can hear every word he says - no slurring, no mumbling, no dropping ends off words. Perfection.
Wish I could pound the like button on that
That's what happens when you study for musical theater.
That's why he was in Rocky Horror. The other singers that they auditioned weren't able to sing the lyrics so quickly while still enunciating.
Amber gets it. She truly understands the greatness of Meatloaf.
Jim Steinman wrote the majority of Meat Loaf's material, but Meat Loaf was the perfect avatar for Steinman's work. A truly perfect duo.
According to the sleeve notes of the Rock 'n' Roll Hero compilation album that I have, when Steinman first heard Meat Loaf, he said "This guy is my voice! He should be singing Wagnerian rock opera!"
Different genre, but Elton John and Bernie Taupin is another great pairing.
Just like Elton John and Bernie Taupin, both good by themselves but magnificent together.
other people recorded some Steinman. the best not by Meatloaf was Bonnie Tyler and what she did with "Total Eclipse of the Heart". but really, a Steinman ballad needed Meatloaf to deliver it
Don’t know if anyone realizes it, but this album is currently the 6th best-selling album in history. It’s VERY good all the way through.
Up to about 150 million now, isn’t it?
Wow
it's basically a greatest hits album
I’ve replaced it more than once, lol. Awesome album!
One of my favs
The album is one of THE best albums ever recorded. The whole thing is solid.
Jim Steinman was the legendary lyricist, Meatloaf was the legendary performer. And big up to Todd Rundgren for the legendary guitar/ motorbike sounds. Much love from England 🏴
Jim Steinmann was the composer of what you very accurately pointed out was Rock Opera. He composed most of Meatloaf's songs. They were high concept and made the hair on the back of your neck stand up. Steinman said referring to meat Loaf: "If you want 350 pound, heroic, Wagnerian Rock this is it." (paraphrased) Steinman is the long-haired piano player in the videos. The female singer in "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" was Karla DeVito who toured with Meatloaf and was a wonderful singer. However she was lip synching to Ellen Foley's vocals on the video. Ellen Foley played Billie Young the public defender in the early episodes of the TV show, "Night Court." Steinman also composed Bonnie Tyler's similar high-concept songs.
He also wrote Bonnie Tyler's song Total Eclipse of the Heart, which was written for Meatloaf but he turned it down and she killed it.
@@russargabright Yes she did!😉
So glad Meat Loaf and Jim stienman met! They were meant to be a team. Meat is the only one that could do Jim's songs justice.
Is that a fact, that Todd was the guitarist? I’ve never heard that before. Just asking. Thanks
Meatloaf was a one of a kind talent. He didn’t just make you feel his music but made his listeners experience it through him. That was why he was so captivating.
One does not "listen" to Meatloaf, one "EXPERIENCES" Meatloaf... The Whole Album is about a man and a woman's relationship. It goes, in order from this (a man dying in a motorcycle accident), the first song, to the memories of his life and his love. He did not write these songs, (the Piano Player did), but he embodied them like nobody else ever could.
Jim Steinman is the songwriting genius behind all of Meatloafs best songs.
On this album, Todd Rundgren's production and arrangement choices are almost every bit as important as the original compositions. Not to take anything away from JS, but it was definitely a collaborative effort.
It remains one of the finest achievements in Rock N' Roll History.
We salute Meatloaf and all of your band who made this possible.
When this album came out, everyone - even the most jaded critics - were simply blown away!
Jim Steinman was the musical and songwriting genius. He wrote all of the songs. Meat Loaf was the genuis singer. Jim is right there playing the piano. As a team they were amazing!
Don't forget Todd Rundgren's awesome balls-out guitar playing!
Roy Bittan played the album version.
@@danlefou and Todd’s production was masterful, as always.
A legendary musical pairing. Surpassing Elton John and Bernie Taupin by leagues.
@@danlefou how could I forget about this
It was killer
Meat Loaf wasn’t just a man singing to an audience. He was a pure entertainer. He played to the camera as well as an audience. If you have ever had the opportunity to see Meat Loaf live…. You definitely walk away knowing you received your money’s worth. Because Meat Loaf left it all on stage , with every concert he preformed.
Oh, it would have been so wonderful to see him perform live. I wish........
couldn't have put it better
I did. He did.
Saw him live about 10-15 years ago. It is one of my top 5 concerts ever.
Remember seeing him life wonderful experience
He truly takes you on a journey. When this album came out everybody had it. The funny thing is I'm 57 and still have the album that I bought when I was a teenager. RIP
I am 67 and still have my album plus the turntable to play it on. LOL
I've had at least 20 copies of it because when I lose one or it gets broken I go get a new one. Same with Eagles Greatest hits, Young Guns soundtrack and Simon and Garfunkel greatest hits.
63 and still have my original album. Along with the Simon and Garfunkel, the Eagles, and many more!
@@ceciliajacobs5346 You want one-upmanship? I'm a REAL baby-boomer born in 1953, and I wore out my stereo listening to this. Now I have the CDs!!!
@@TheCometHunter Who is trying to One-up someone?? As for being a "REAL" baby boomer I was born in 1955, so I am just as real as you are.
Go Amber. It brought a tear to my eye watching you love this song so much. Rocks Pavarotti. What a performer, what a man. Fantastic reaction to a brilliant artist. RIP Meat. That bike was waiting for you on the other side.
I feel one of the most overlooked songs by Meat Loaf is You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth. From the beginning to the way it plays out it just plain cool.
I agree
Yup! Probably my favorite Meatloaf song
I bet you say that to all the boys :)
That's absolutely my favorite Meatloaf song-so great! 👍
Yes!!!
Who else, who owns the full LP, at the very end of hearing this track hears the lyrics at beginning of the next superb track (‘You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth’) resonating in your mind: ‘On a hot summer’s night would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses’?
Yes.
Every. Single. Time.
I bet you say that to all the boys
And will he starve without you?
Living in Argentina, I had to contact a record store to import the CD from the USA because I couldn´t find it here. Love both songs!
Years back, Meatloaf did an interview, don't remember with whom, but, he told the interviewer, If I have the energy for a groupie after the show, I didn't perform good enough for the crowd. Give 110% then do more.........
I am still so sad over his death. This album is one of the greatest of all time. Meat Loaf was a genius.
Jim steinman was composer, he was!
One Meat Loaf song that ends with absolute fire is "All Revved Up With No Place to Go"--you need a seat belt for the last 40-45 seconds. For a Female Friday, you can react to Cher's duet with Meat Loaf, "Dead Ringer"--well worth the time.
Or, you could do "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" with Marian Raven.
FINALLY-- More Meatloaf!
Cher and Meatloaf sound AND look great in the “official” video for Dead Ringer for Love ❤️
I’ve been asking them to react to it but no luck so far
Or how about Original Sin done by Taylor Dane.
The goal behind this song was to write and perform “the ultimate motorcycle crash song”. Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf definitely achieved that.
I know you recorded this reaction on the day he died, and to hear you (Jordan) interpret the lyrics and say “he didn’t make it” crushed me. I’ve long known the meaning of the song, but to hear him sing about his own death on the day he died … not to be insensitive, but… is theatrical in only a way Meat Loaf would want it.
I totally agree with you I think it's wonderful to play tribute to somebody who has passed away on the same day. We all played tribute to John Lennon when he passed away on a cold winter's night 12/8/80. I think that any great artist especially someone so well known as John Lennon would like to have his fans pay tribute to him on the day that he dies, by playing the songs that he is famous for. Meatloaf with me missed by a lot of people, we grew up with him.
@@janecarbone1504 infamous?
@@langdalepaul that's my talk to text it doesn't understand me all the time. You're totally correct it should say famous not infamous. I have corrected it thank you very much.
And the sound of the motorcycle is all Todd Rundgren’s guitar.
@@selecttoursnyc7787 One of the most incredible guitarists in rock and not usually lauded as such. Which seems odd to me. His sound has always been immense.
I was lucky enough to see him live twice when I was a teenager. I was about a decade younger than anyone else at the concert and couldn't care less. I sang at the top of my lungs the entire time and had no voice for the rest of the week. Most of all, I had NO REGRETS! He actually sang that well in concert too. It was a mind blowing experience and I feel truly lucky to have gotten to enjoy it live. Thank you both for sharing these reactions! 💓
I can't tell you how huge this album and this song was at the time. He was a mega star for a time. Amazing artist.
Thanks for honoring Meat Loaf (again). Truly a showman worthy of multiple tributes! You have to check out "You Took The Words Right Out of My Mouth", "I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)", "Rock and Roll Dreams Come Through", and "Objects in the Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are". DAMN, the man loved long song titles!!
Meat was a true performer. Ha always said he was an actor first, a singer second. Immensely talented and gone too soon.
Keep in mind Jim Steinman is the writer of almost all of his songs. But Meat brought them to life!
Yes i loved his episode on house md . Husband and wife both dying but one is having sympathetic symptoms ( they were very much in love )
Just a note: In this video, which is obviously not a live performance, the "girl" is Carla Devito, who also toured with MeatLoaf on the BOOH tour and others.
On the album, the female vocals were performed by Ellen Foley, and on the album cover were credited to "Mrs. Loud." Ellen Foley also played public defender, Billy Young, on the second season of the NBC comedy "Night Court."
First we had to have a world without Freddie Mercury - and now Meatloaf as well. Meatloaf will be another who no one will ever come near to how huge his voice and stage persona was, his like you only get once! RIP.
screw freddie queen is for sissys
That's the trouble with you carbon-based life forms...you all die off so quickly!
If you listen to the piano and drums, that’s Roy Bittan and Max Weinberg of the E Street Band. Meatloaf and Steinman apparently loved the sound from Born to Run, and in 1977 Bruce was still breaking up with Mike Appel, couldn’t record, and they were available. Bat Out of Hell was lightning in a bottle! And Meatloaf was a musical theatre trained actor. It shows.
Wow, I never new that! But now that you mention it, I can hear some “Rosalita” similarities on here.
That motorcycle sound was actually the beginning of the guitar solo, played by producer Todd Rundgren. The album is a combination of the genius songwriting of Jim Steinman, the genius production of Todd Rundgren and the nigh-operatic theatricality of Meat Loaf - the musicians from Utopia and the E Street Band (plus guests like Edgar Winter) also brought their skills.
I was born in 1958, so you can tell all the performers I've lived through. And I just LOVE watching you kids experiencing Meatloaf for the first time. You got a great gig going here...keep it up!
the piano player in this video is the guy who write all meatloafs best songs and they were both musical theater people
That is called an emotional wreck. Meatloaf just showed us that if you put every ounce of power and sweat into it you will deliver a great song that will leave you spent. No matter how many times I hear this song I think of what and incredible group of people that gave us this bombastic powerhouse voice that just radiates pure emotion and feelings. R.I.P. Meatloaf you will always be remembered for your music and acting.
Meat considered himself a performer, not a singer. The acting was very much part of it, it's who he was. The music though, that was Jim Steinman, he wrote everything. Meat performed.
Not quite everything...
He was a performer. I saw him do a 20 minute version of Paradise
I feel as if a part of my youth died with the passing of this wonderful entertainer and genuine human being. Marvin Lee Aday (Michael) AKA Meatloaf your musical performances will live on! Thanks for the decades of memories.
Meatloaf was a musical drama genius. He was more that just rock n roll, he was having as much fun singing his music as you had listening to it.
Meat left so much of himself on stage that he would literally pass out as soon as he finished. They kept oxygen waiting for him.
The man was a genius with Jim Steinmann. The two were to rock what Rogers and Hammerstein were to musicals.
**FULL BODY GOOSEBUMPS EVERY TIME**
Not gonna write my usual book lol I just gotta say that this song floors me every time. If anyone ever asks "What makes you think Meatloaf is such a good singer" this is where I direct them. F-ing AMAZING voice!!!! Coupled with how powerful, beautiful, and moving this song is. I defy anyone to show me a more perfect rock song.
Peace
That last "Breakin outta my body and flyin away....LIKE A BAT OUTTA HELL!!!!!" Kills me!!!!
Jim Steinman's a pure genius in all of the writing and producing Meatloaf's music! Love his work! AWESOME MUSIC!
When my sister and her husband are at the pub getting sloshed and meatloaf comes on, they stop and drag each other on the dance floor and sing top note, they are hitting near 60 and its the funniest thing. We love Meatloaf❤RIP.
It's a shame this one got held up in copyright issues, one thing I love about this song is the "Motorcycle" is pure electric guitar!
A uniquely individual voice. And a GREAT performer. RIP Meat.
Everything with Meatloaf is an opera. Sublime.
I 1975 saw him in concert Massey hall,Toronto…..best show ever !!!
Next song has to be "I would do anything for love (but I won't do that." And just trust me, if you want Meatloaf at his most theatrical, watch the full length official video for that song!"
I have to add that it is Meatloaf with songs composed by Jim Steinman that made the music what it was. It was really a team. Meatloaf without Jim Steinman was not nearly as amazing. Sort of like the team of Bernie Taupin writing Elton John songs. Rest in peace to both of them.
They never did a full length video. Even the 'long' video cut out a good few minutes of the album version.
Exactly. The full version is the only way to hear it.
Without a doubt this would be the next best choice followed by 2 out of 3 ain’t bad.
To clarify though, Taupin writes the lyrics to EJ songs. Elton writes the music. While Steinman writes the music and lyrics but Meatloaf brings the rock opera's to life. Each Team is symbiotic bit also different.
also his song with Marion Raven is just WOW
amazing performer . Icon who will be deeply missed . It was a given to have his albums in the 70's and 80's .Every one knew the words to his songs and well being 57 years old still have it on cd.
IMO, this is his best song and his best vocal performance by far. An absolute EPIC song and album! R.I.P. 🙏🙏
Meatloaf learnt his stage presents by 4 years on Broadway with the rocky horror show and a few years before that with hair (ask your grandparents) and the whole album was written by Jim Steinman the guitar that sounds like a motor bike is played by Todd Rudgren. Meatloaf was also in the movie version of the Rocky horror picture show and sadly left us to soon but the brightest stars go out first. R.I.P MEATLOF. PS read the lyrics every track on the album is a story and a monster.
Two songs you should put in your line up should be "For Crying out Loud" and "Heaven Can Wait". They are both beautiful in sound and meaningful in lyrics.
I love For Crying Out Loud! The quiet gentleness that builds into the big Meat Loaf sound is just so good.
Chuck those songs are great but really this is "HIM" by far his best song, it is an epic & that should be reacted to afterwards, you have to hear the song in one go.
Yes both!!
Ellen Foley also does a magnificent "Heaven can wait".. the female voice of Paradise 2out 3 Took the words etc.
yes indeed guys he left a massive mark in rock history he was the only one nobody else was compared to him he was another iconic legendary figure
Karla Devito was his women singer in a lot of his songs. She had a good solo album!!!
Not sure if you know this but Meatloaf was a "musical actor" prior to being an AWESOME singer. He definitely put his whole soul into all his songs!!
You don't "hear" a Meatloaf/Steineman song, you feel it, you experience it.
R.I.P. Meatloaf one of a kind
Jim Steinman wrote the songs
They collaborated on most of Meat's albums. You see him playing the piano in the video. He died about 9 months before Meat.
Oh my Lord, I love your reactions! Especially, to Meatloaf.
The writer, Jim Steinman, wrote the song and was the gentleman on the piano. Jim passed away last April too.
Ah, Meat Loaf. Powerhouse performer, powerhouse vocalist, powerhouse of a man...and yet privately he was a shy person with social anxiety, who ran away from home as a teenager after his mother died.
Actually, Jim Steinman (seen at the piano) wrote all the songs, but Meat delivered them in a way that made you feel like you were right in that story with him. Both remarkable men in their own rights, but together they made magic. They'll both be a big miss.
Edit: and yes, Meat could remove a jacket like nobody's business.
In case you missed it, the woman who sings on Paradise bu the dasboard light is Ellen Foley. She sings on Bat out of Hell and the woman in the promo videos and who went with Meat loaf on the tours is Karla DeVito. Ellen Foley has a really intresting career of her own, look up her debut solso single "we belong to the night". It is perfection
This is the first song of the album. In my interpretation, this song sets up the rest of the album. Every other song is his life flashing before his eyes, before he takes his last breath. Again, the two main themes of the album - love and time. It is a concept album and it is meant to be listened to in order. So now you have to do the last song - For Crying Out Loud (You know I love you.). The two songs are perfect bookends.
His best stuff was written by Jim Steinman, the stuff from Bat Out of Hell and Bat II, including this song. His song all have this theatric turn to them, and Steinman wrote them, ostensibly, to be part of a musical about a teenage Peter Pan Neverland.
Most of Meatloaf's hits were actually written by Jim Steinman, the guy playing the piano in this clip.
Also, the motorbike revving sound about 2/3 of the way through the song isn't a motorbike, it's actually an amazing guitar solo by Todd Rundgren.
The woman that sings with him is listed on the album as "Mrs. Loud". It fits. She can hold her own with Meatloaf and they really worked well together.
The lady in white is Karla DeVito. We went to the same high school. Not sure why they wouldn't show her real name.
The audio is the studio version... featuring Ellen Foley on female lead. They dumped her for Karla for the tour (where Karla did sing), and also for the videos - but kept Ellen's vocal track for the videos. @@dianachase63
No doubt about it, Meatloaf, back in his early years, was an absolute force of nature. Every band/singer have their pinnacle years, and for Meat Loaf, in his Bat out of Hell years, he was at his pinnacle. A true performer that delivered his absolute best.
No road trip is complete without the Bat out Of Hell album on your playlist.
For Crying Out Loud!!! The awesome drums!!! You Took The Words Out of My Mouth
For Crying Out Loud … those lyrics are more sentimental than dramatic, but just shows another side of Meat and Jim’s brilliance. That song would be at the top of my list for The Rob Squad to react to next.
@@scottNNJ Couldn't agree more!!!!!!!!
You know the motorcycle reviving its engine through the song? Not a motorcycle. Nope. Producer Todd Rundgren did it on his guitar.
Great great song. God bless Meatloaf. 🙏🏻❤️
There's a great video where Steinman is talking about whining to Rundgren that he wanted a motorbike in the song and being amazed that Todd would do it all on the guitar
Not just a singer but a TRUE PERFORMER.. RIP.
This NEVER GETS OLD!!
And am sure it NEVER will!
R.I.P MEATLOAF. ✌
Meatloaf was a showman of the highest calibre with a voice that matched. Rest in Peace my man, Rest in Peace.
RIP MEATLOAF. Can't believe he is not in the Rock Hall of Fame it is a tragedy!!
The Hall has so many lesser artists than Meatloaf (and others) that it's become something of a bad joke IMO.
Wait what
That band does NOT get the recognition they deserve they played there hearts out for that song
Dear Amber,
I absolutely felt what you were feeling through every step of this song! It was almost painful to see you jamming out, knowing that he "wasn't going to make it" out of the next verse. It's amazing to go back in time, to when this album first came out, and to feel those feels all over again, thanks to you! Keep on doing your thing-, it's quite beautiful. 💕
One of the greatest rock songs ever created!! Just amazing in every way! RIP!!
Meatloaf was a poetic and theatrical powerhouse. A legend! RIP
I've been about 15 years old when this album came out and it was something totaly new. We loved it and I still do!
The theatricality is inseparable from the music the way he and songwriter Jim Steinman did it. Their later videos capture that poignantly. "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" is a phenomenal example of this - he and Marion Raven are phenomenal, the music is beyond beautiful and the images stay with you. It's a musical masterpiece and short film.
Man I jammed this so loud from my 8 track in the day, LOL! His "Bat out of Hell 2 " has a song 'Life is a Lemon and I want my money back" it's worth a listen. Much love Jay & Amber!
Especially the bridge. The bridge of that song is epic.
Rock and Roll dreams come true was amazing
Did you "play" that piano trill on top of your dash? (you KNOW you did!)
Jim steinman was Meatloaf's creative partner and wrote most of music. Meatloaf used to put so much energy into his live shows that when the show was over and he will walk backstage he would pass out. Every time
What most people don't know about Meatloaf is that he got his start in music theater and performed a lot on and off Broadway. Plus he was a tremendous actor having in such movies at The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the the movie staring Jack Black...Tenacious D the Pick of Destiny and many other films. Peace!!
Meatloaf was a THEATRICAL genius. The MUSICAL genius came from Jim Steinman. 😁
I couldn’t have worded it better.
@@skatekr3w13 steinman could have though
I just saw this after making the same comment!
Meatloaf certainly put his everything he has into each and every performance
he sweat buckets at his concerts
@@davexvs he sure did
I love seeing the younger generations enjoying classic music so much.. Gives me hope.....
That guitar solo is so much cooler than most people realize. Most people don't know that motorcycle sound revving up was actually Todd Rundgren making sounds with his guitar, and then he transitions it into his guitar solo. One of the coolest guitar solos because most people don't even know it's a guitar.
I believe the reason why he was so amazing was he concedered himself an actor first so everything was an performance not a song. He once said each song had a different person singing it and he had quarks or movements that put into each character.
Would loved to have seen meat and Freddie perform together 👍the best stage performers ever👏👏👏
I saw Meat live in the 80's, you are absolutely right, it's a performance, like a rock opera all the way through. Awesome
You have to see the expression on your faces at the chorus! Priceless! Nice to see young people enjoy the music of when I was young!
ambers expressions blew me away she totally got the passion of this song
the great Todd rundgren on guitar and he also produced the album ...
He was also great on concerts. His voice sounds in concert just as great as it did in a recording studio. He gave it all! I saw him in the 2000’s so he wasn’t a young guy, but you couldn’t tell!
a lot of comments are crediting Meat Loaf for his performance and Jim Steinman for composing and rightfully so. But don’t forget musical genius Todd Rundgren who produced this album when nobody else would. Pplus he and his then band Utopia played on the album and Todd himself does the motor cycle sound…on his guitar…much to the surprise of everyone who was watching it 🎉
The other Canadian Power Trio is Triumph. Magic Power is a great place to start. They have a lot of great, inspiring songs.
"Would you offer your throat to the wolf red roses?" Meatloaf
Would he offer me his mouth?
Yes.
Would he offer me his jaw?
Yes.
I bet you say that to all the boys 😆
You could always tell Meatloaf put so much feeling and emotion into his songs. It almost felt like I was feeling more than I was hearing when listening to his music.
What a beautiful reaction
So glad you enjoyed both this song and your discovery
LEGENDARY!!!
"Bat Out Of Hell" was released in October, 1977. I was a 16 year old high school junior and I had no idea way back then the impact these songs, this music, would have on me. Now, nearly 45 years later, I understand and appreciate how a song can grow with you. I loved "Bat Out Of Hell" when it was released because it was like nothing I had ever heard. Oh...but now at 60 years old, I have led a life. I have loved and lost, I have cried and rejoiced. These songs have grown with me and became more impacting as my life experiences accumulated.
God Bless Marvin Lee Aday (Meat Loaf). God Bless Jim Steinman.
From The Righteous Brothers song "Rock and Roll Heaven", lyrics by Alan O'Day and Johnny Stevenson
"If you believe in forever
Then life is just a one-night stand
If there's a rock and roll heaven
Well you know they've got a hell of a band..."
With Delores'O Rierdon and Meatloaf singing lead
There will never be another performer like Meatloaf. Never. I've been a fan since my mother first introduced me to him in 1978, way back when I was a young boy. RIP my dear Meatloaf. Thank you Amber and Jordan for paying homage to this magnificent artist. Love you guys!
Amber, Absolutely love your insight, interpretation and thoughts on the music i love and grew up with. Almost like you were there back then. You are very in tune with what is going on in each performance. Jay, more Bee Gees and Cheap Trick. Love and appreciate your channel.
I took my then 16 yr old son to see Meatloaf perform in Kelowna BC in 2007. He’s a musician (drums & guitar), and has an appreciation of many forms of music. To this day, 2023, he still admits this was the best concert he has ever been to. Pure entertainment to be remembered.
