  • Antone else listening to Meat Loaf , feeling old , remembering simpler times , laughter and happiness ?
  • A fucking travesty Meat Loaf and Steinman are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Rest In Power.
  • @alexerhard1198
    The voice of Meatloaf still blows my mind. Wherever you are Rocky, I hope you're still belting out these gems.

    This song is sweeping, sorrowful, melancholy yet nuanced with a deadpan sense of humor about itself (there ain't no coupe de ville hiding at the bottom of a crackerjack box). It recognises that there's something silly in pursuing someone who cannot return your love, but also how tragic it is to like someone but not be able to love them. But hey, that's how life is and you gotta take the bad with the good in relationships.
  • This album really captures the angst and power of the wild emotional life of teens, boys in particular. Everything is amplified; your feelings of unlimited possibilities, and the grandeur and majesty of the self, the magic you feel being out at night, unsupervised, coupled with the absolute terror of the power of the feelings. And then you get older, and you realize with devastation that you'll never suffer those feelings again, but that also means you'll never be that happy or powerful or free again.

    Listening to this great song when I was 15 and now 60. Hits different after 45 years of experience.

  • A year today we lost an amazing singer/performer. Your voice will live on ❤️

    The best heartbreaking breakup song. Written by Jim Steinman who wrote lyrics for Meatloaf throughout Meats singing career. Passed away in 2021. Performed by the talented Meatloaf.Passed away in 2022. R.I.P Meatloaf.

    This song brings back memories of my childhood , my mom would listen to this song everyday in the kitchen while she would cook dinner. I can hear her singing to this song right now. Love you mom!

    Meat Loaf will always be one of the most underrated singers of all time.
  • @annmurphy1306
    The first time I heard this song it stopped me in my tracks , finished my classes in school went straight to Maggie's music store on Bath Ave in Brooklyn to purchase his album played it for months still playing it 39 years later
  • Steinman's two most poignant lines through Meatloaf medium: Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed, cuz we were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed. The other: there ain't no Coupe Deville hiding at the bottom of a cracker jack box. RIP - two great collaborators. The universe conspired to bring them together to give us all the greatest of memories.

    This album is still revealing things to me after nearly 50 years and listening since it first came out on vinyl. "Baby we can talk all night" is different at the beginning than at the end. The first time, his voice rises on the word "all"; the second time it stays on the same note. The sentiment has evolved ... the fight, the will to argue and persuade, has gone out of him somewhat. No time like the 20,000th listen to notice these things, and considering it my favorite record for much of the last several decades.
