A Last Helping of Meatloaf



I was watching a little VH1 this morning, and I happened to catch Meatloaf's new video for "It's All Coming Back to Me." Yes, Celine Dion recorded the Jim Steinman tune back in the day, but I actually like Meatloaf's version better. He doesn't just belt it out (a la Celine), and he digs into the lyrics and brings some feeling to a very pretty song. But I do think his duet partner, Marion Raven, is up too high in the mix. Alright, I think I've exceeded my quota for Meatloaf and piano ballads for the month....

Hmmmm wondering why nobody ever listened to the original BOOH album..... That is in my opinion the best version of this song

I believe the tracks on the original Bat Out of Hell are:

1. Bat Out of Hell
2. You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth
3. Heaven Can Wait
4. All Revved Up With No Place to Go
5. Two Out of Three Ain't Bad
6. Paradise by the Dashboard Light
7. For Crying Out Loud
