Tell me about it!!! I am 31, listened to Jim since I was born (literally went to sleep to his music as a baby) and NEVER knew there was a video for this!
Oh Karla - why isn't music as much fun as it used to be? Nowadays we are supposed to think all these highly choreographed indentikit twerkers in videos are sexy but you knock their socks off!
Rest in peace Jim Steinman. The lord of excess, the greatest song writer of all time. You'll never know the impact you had on my life but you were the greatest! Thank you for everything and God Speed Jim! God Speed!
"When they decide that I'm gone ... I know they're gonna try to put me to rest but I won't be afraid ... Because I know, I know there's dance after death." Poignant.
Such a great song writer, performer, producer this world needs good people like Mr Steinman. Also, I remember the first time I saw the beautiful Miss Karla DeVito & yes a immediate love, just love her bright eyes.
The white shorts outfit with the white stockings she's wearing near the end of this video is the same one that she's wearing on the cover of her "Is This a Cool World or What?" album.
I hear you there; I only just found this! I guess I'd say its length was what kept it out of serious rotation on MTV, but then again, there have been some epics since then, so who knows?
Yes for years I'd only heard the album version.....but I absolutely love the video ..only one thing I would say is that the part where she says "i've got a new step for yot ...bet you've never seen nothing like this before" it is better left to your imagination.
In memory of Jim Steinman 1947 - 2021 Your lyrics, your music, your soul a brighter than sunlight, Shining like hope upon the darkest of many a my bipolar night, You were my inspiration, to feel alive, Your songs gave me strength and a thirst to strive, Jim Steinman 🥃, Heaven could not wait for you any longer, You may gone, but our love for you will only grow stronger, I was much younger, a child when Anything for Love was released, I soon heard all your songs and I too am Bad for Good - my inner self unleashed, You saved me from my darkest days, How many others did you save from a dark haze? We are here and better to have heard all you had to say in your art In celebration of your life, teaching us to live ours, giving us strength to start, Thankyou Jim For in life, you helped us all win 🍻🙏🎹🎸🎭🎶😊🎼🎵
his sounds fresher today than it did back then, Written off as a parody of Paradise But No this really stands up as another amazing Steinman composition, The vid brings it even more to life
I have spent 51 years performing. Almost all of it in a group called Elvis and meat loaf. I did the Elvis part but I'm also a huge meat loaf fan. Being a fan of Mr loaf you become a fan of Jim steinman. I loved most of this song and thought it was very true to his style and could have been a very big hit but, you knew that was going to be a butt in here there's something I never liked. I hate the name and hook line dance in my pants. If that one line were changed I really think this could have become a big hit much like paradise by the dashboard light. I was lucky to get to see steinman, meat loaf, and Elvis perform in concert. All three had a great effect on my life and I have nothing but admiration for them. Still can't stand that hook phrase dance in my pants LOL
I wasn't familiar with this song, and though I love a lot of Jim Steinman's work, the title put me off and I imagined it would have graphic and embarrassing lyrics about some guy's erection. Finally clicked on the video a few days ago when it showed up on my RUclips suggestions and danged if this isn't the most fun song I have ever heard.
You Know Jim Steinman was on the set of Rocky Horror, working on 🦇 out of 🔥 with Meatloaf in between takes and was great friends with Richard O'Brien and Tim Curry?
Oh how lucky have I been in the 90s going to a small Gothic Club in East Germany with the DJ not being my friend, but loving the fact that I was turned off by the 'underground mainstream'. He played this song twice just to get me on the dancefloor. And after all it brought the others, too.
There was a studio version in 1979 It was shown to CBS live with Meat and Jim in the room When Jim heard the vocals he couldn't believe it and to ease the tension Meat Loaf belted out "Rory Dodd fucked my wife" Brilliant story It was rerecorded with Steinmans vocals Everything else is original
@@garybates5505 meat loaf was blessed with an absolute amazing voice but Jim has much more talent...he can sing, write lyrics and music as well as playing piano. Now Freddy Mercury has got a voice as good as meatloaf and plays piano and writes his own songs. So there's only one Fred
Lots of folks say the songs on Bad for Good are like sequels to Bat out of Hell - it's because the album was originally intended to be Bat out of Hell 2 and the original album title was "Renegade Angel" but Meat's voice was crocked after so much touring on Bat 1 so, according to an interview with Jim when the album came out, I think it was in Sounds or the New Musical Express, - Meat told Steinman to release it himself with his blessing and the promise that once Meat had recovered they would make Bat 2 - or Dead Ringer as it became. So, this is the original Bat 2 and Dead Ringer would have been Bat 3 if not for Meat's voice crocking.
Wife and I picked up up the vinyl at a garage sale. Had no idea who Jim Steinman was or what his music sounded like. Just thought it was a hilariously 80s looking cover for 5$. Why not right? Fast forward a couple years to us finally getting a record player... To say we were not prepared for this even like this would be an understatement. Let alone expect it to be an assault on your senses in the very best kind of way.

I had to wait 44 years to finally see the video for this song?
Totally worth it
Tell me about it!!! I am 31, listened to Jim since I was born (literally went to sleep to his music as a baby) and NEVER knew there was a video for this!
Who else owns a copy of Bad For Good and absolutely thinks it's excellent?
Got this album. Great album
Excellent indeed!!
Yes got the album one of the best ever
I've even got a copy on cassette tape from back then 😀
Me :)
Jim Steinman has died. He was a musical genius, I am heartbroken.
Me tocó...
Nah... He is still Rocking on the edge of the grave. :)
@@LordAlacorn True! There IS dance after death!! ;-)
Meatloaf died
Hey VEVO - might be nice to mention Jim’s duet partner here - Little Bo - me💕🌸
YOU
ARE
RIGHT!
What a lovable performance...
Thank you, Karla!
❤
So much fun!
Oh Karla - why isn't music as much fun as it used to be? Nowadays we are supposed to think all these highly choreographed indentikit twerkers in videos are sexy but you knock their socks off!
Karla DeVito - One of my favorite singers EVER!
You're so amazing on this song/in that video :-)
Jim and Meatloaf now reunited. R.I.P. boys! The greatest showmen of an immortal era.
I would love to believe
Yes they were I wanted to see meatloaf really bad
Rest in peace Jim Steinman. The lord of excess, the greatest song writer of all time. You'll never know the impact you had on my life but you were the greatest! Thank you for everything and God Speed Jim! God Speed!
the same by me
Don't worry. The will be back, as a bat out of hell ...!
Totally worth waiting for.@@boyechristensen3073
The video is almost perfect in its Jim Steinman eccentricity, humour, campness, bizarreness.
I'll bet he was a lot of fun to be friends with. What an awesome guy.
If you don't go over the top you won't see what's on the other side -Jim Steinman
As weird as it is to admit, the Bad For Good might be my favorite Steinman related album
you're not the only one !!
Only Jim steinman can take a 3 minute homage to Chuck Berry songs and make you spend 7 minutes listening to it
This music video featurette was ahead of the curve for 1981
This is like Paradise by the Dashboard Light part 2
"When they decide that I'm gone ... I know they're gonna try to put me to rest but I won't be afraid ... Because I know, I know there's dance after death." Poignant.
Glorious. Why isn't music fun any more?
She's a good singer
Omg there's a music video. How am i only just seeing this???
NatBat just discovered this after reading the recent Meat Loaf biography. Very interesting🤪
Happened to hit record on this back in the eighties. Worth it
RIP Jim.
May you always be dancing on the edge of the grave.
"Dancing on the edge of the grave" RIP Jim, you'll be alive forever.
Just found out Jim Steinman has just passed away aged 73 . . "There's dance after death"
This is Steinman! I just want him back
This music video game me a complete Rocky Horror vibe, because it's a lot of fun! R.I.P. Jim Steinman.
I love Jim Steinman, his music sensibility and his sense of humor 🥰
This needs to be remastered at 8K! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Steinman is a music god!
An entire Chorus Line number for $5, even in the 80's that was a complete steal.
If there was no Jim Steinman their would be no Meat Loaf.
You got that right !
Basically Paradise by the Dashboard Light part 2. Love this album. The beat is yours forever Mr Steinman. Thank you.
He definitely blessed us when he gave us those songs.
@@Bahama3ay true
This video is hilarious, I love Jimmy's silliness. What a legend.
May he dance after death ✌🏼
I would hope he was teaching the angels to write and Meat’s teaching them to sing the great songs
He was an extremely talented ledgenb
I would hope he is teaching the angels to write songs and Meat is teaching them to sing those masterpieces.
Beautiful thought, f I do say so
aRTIssT
Typical Steinman…
10 seconds of song first time and im already feeling the music dancing and wanting more…
So sad we lost him
Thank You for everything Jim R.I.P
Such a great song writer, performer, producer this world needs good people like Mr Steinman. Also, I remember the first time I saw the beautiful Miss Karla DeVito & yes a immediate love, just love her bright eyes.

@@solracer66 I had that album. Was lost in a move. Karla was the woman of my youthful dreams.
@@jeffgagen3561 I still have my copy on vinyl but packed away with the rest of my records in a box somewhere.
Thanks for the music Mr Steinman❤😂👼
This genius man was pur fire! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rest in Peace Jim, you have been loved
That man's music has helped me through some bad times.
SHE IS A GREAT SINGER I LOVE HER...
Dancing on the edge of a grave R.I.P Jim
Oh Jim!
How did I never know this song had a music video until now?
I hear you there; I only just found this!
I guess I'd say its length was what kept it out of serious rotation on MTV, but then again, there have been some epics since then, so who knows?

@@kitcachapp3094 True. I envision just the look on his face as sparks fly, supposedly from her. 😆
Very sad to hear of his passing - I still have a hell of a lot to learn about rock n roll - and with Jim gone who will teach me?
I'm on such a Steinman learning kick today!
She always was a great singer and it's so sexy when she growls her notes
In memory of Jim Steinman
1947 - 2021
Your lyrics, your music, your soul a brighter than sunlight,
Shining like hope upon the darkest of many a my bipolar night,
You were my inspiration, to feel alive,
Your songs gave me strength and a thirst to strive,
Jim Steinman 🥃, Heaven could not wait for you any longer,
You may gone, but our love for you will only grow stronger,
I was much younger, a child when Anything for Love was released,
I soon heard all your songs and I too am Bad for Good - my inner self unleashed,
You saved me from my darkest days,
How many others did you save from a dark haze?
We are here and better to have heard all you had to say in your art
In celebration of your life, teaching us to live ours, giving us strength to start,
Thankyou Jim
For in life, you helped us all win
🍻🙏🎹🎸🎭🎶😊🎼🎵

A great song to mark the passing of a great man. Rest in Peace.

7/3/22 MY LOVE FOR THIS SONG BROUGHT ME HERE TODAY!!!
Rip Jim, you were my childhood. you will be missed
jim steinman one of the greatest composers ever. this is an amazing show song, and one of the most underrated i've ever seem.
RIP JIM!!!!!!!!!
Brilliant song and a brilliant video and how good is Karla DeVito?
RIP Jim Steinman😢
Bought mine on the day it came out and haven't stopped playing it since! Thanks for the music Jimmy Boy!!!

RIP Jim. Thanks for the Music and the Theatre.
This song is so high-energy I lost 5 lb listening to it but I can't Pele the grin off my face
My first viewing of this video... Jim you were and always will be my hero R I P 💔💔💔
I just love the 80s bought this album when it first came out and still love it
Love him!
Jim will be alive forever though his music dancing on the edge of his grave what a Rock legend
RIp... now he is with Freddie Mercury, Andre Matos and Dio, rocking in Heaven
This might just be the most bonkers/genius video for a song ever!
RIP Jim, You will be missed.
Karla - OMG! So glad this is here. Jimmy - pure theatre, genius
Jim you have made such an impact on my life! I can't wait to find you in the next world
god of rock!
I love the Great Jim Steinman songs... Make me feel so good.... Genius.
I have never seen this before - thanks very much! RIP Jim
RIP Jim :( Now, forever dancing on the edge of a grave
RIP Jim Steinman... composer, singer, producer... definitely not a dancer :D
Jim is felt whenever our pants or whatever tingles and stirs down in that crevasse lets the sunshine in. Amen.
This is so zany it almost belongs in The Rocky Horro Picture Show
Definitely in that zone.
You Know Jim Steinman was on the set of Rocky Horror, working on 🦇 out of 🔥 with Meatloaf in between takes and was great friends with Richard O'Brien and Tim Curry?
So close to Dead Ringer for love, but so unique

Jim Steinman is larger than GOD
Wow.... I can´t say more! Just Wow! Carla and Jim, great!
Karla is a beauty !!🤩
RIP to a legend.
Jim, you live on in these amazing songs - never to be forgotten.
Wish Meat had done a studio version, especially as he did it live for most of the 80's
There was a studio version in 1979
It was shown to CBS live with Meat and Jim in the room
When Jim heard the vocals he couldn't believe it and to ease the tension Meat Loaf belted out "Rory Dodd fucked my wife"
Brilliant story
It was rerecorded with Steinmans vocals
Everything else is original
Those arrangements on the horns are incredible, what a song
I own it, and love it. LP and CD.
Jim is by far the best performer for his own songs.
No he’s great but there’s only one Meat
@@garybates5505 meat loaf was blessed with an absolute amazing voice but Jim has much more talent...he can sing, write lyrics and music as well as playing piano. Now Freddy Mercury has got a voice as good as meatloaf and plays piano and writes his own songs. So there's only one Fred

Awesome stuff

Que de souvenirs ... MERCI Mr Steinman car aujourd'hui comme hier j'aime et écoute toujours autant vos musiques ainsi que Mr Meat Loaf "of course"
Yes - another beer!
