    I'm a child of the mid 70's and early 80's. I loved it from Meatloaf, but man, gotta say...Jamey gives it a whole new meaning. I think he definitely does it justice in the country genre. The way he sings it, I forget its even a Meatloaf song. For those haters who say some songs shouldn't be re-made...keep an open mind. I think it depends on the artist, not the song.

      Steinman was heavily influenced by country western music and definitely would have approved.

      April, we lost Meat loaf this year. Jimmy Buffett is in, disrepair? I knew Meat's version, but this one, well, sounds solid in my soul. This, and, certain other Meatloaf songs, Remind me of younger days. I am knocking on 60, however, I am still young at heart sis!!!!! I hope you are as well. Peace, John. Humbled.

    Jamey makes every word of this song hang there for like 5 minutes it seems. It's almost like he's reading it to a classroom out of a book for a lesson except his voice is phenomenal. He completely stripped down a song that was pretty much already stripped down. You absolutely hang on to every single word. I've heard Jamie do many versions of cover songs he does a great job on a lot of them but when I heard this one I said there's nothing Jamie can't do. Such respect to meatloaf by the way he did this. Thank God for Jamey Johnson for bringing integrity to traditional country music and never half-assing anything. And thanks to the late Don Imus for asking him to do this. Simply simply brilliant

    I am a huge Meatloaf fan and NO ONE can sing like him!
    Jamey sings it his way and makes it his own. I consider this a great tribute to the song and Meatloaf.
    RIP MEATLOAF!
    I really never considered you as just a singer. I have always put you in a special level as a true theatrical artist.

    I could have never left him on a stormy night, a snowy night, a clear night, a hot night..well you get where I am going. All it would have taken is one look from those enchanting eyes.- roll tide
