The anniversary of Meat Loaf's passing is this Friday, 1/20, and I wanted to not only return to his work, but also marvel in his exceptional talent. Very few artists enunciate as well as Meat Loaf does, and "Bat Out of Hell" truly showcases that extreme talent. I am so grateful for having the opportunity to hear his music now, and revel in the beauty of his work.
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she analyzes Meat Loaf performing "Bat Out of Hell" for the first time.

I know this premiere is up early, but it's a tribute to Meat Loaf's passing (which the anniversary of is this Friday) and wanted to give the best heads up for all of you to attend the live premiere. Additionally, if you can't wait and haven't seen it yet, I recently released a video on how bats and harsh metal vocalists use their laryngeal structure the same here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wLRZLKpXx5A.html Thank you everyone for your support!

Meat Loaf (with Jim Steinman's writing) is one of the few musicians who can sing a song for 15 minutes and when it ends, you feel like the song was way too short.

Him and Jim are also great and doing very long repeated sections (Objects in the rear view mirror, and hot summer night for example) without it getting tired or boring

@brianbrown1979 Год назад

"Bat Out Of Hell" is on my personal short list of perfect rock albums, with every song having an epic feel. Meat Loaf's energy, passion, and ability to apply raw emotion to compelling musical stories make him, IMO, the unequaled rock and roll balladeer. It was a sad day when we lost this great talent, and I fear we will not see his equal again in my life time. Thank you for doing this homage and sharing your insights with us.

@wernervanderwalt8541 Год назад

Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman. What a combination! It's like Jim just always knew how to write the songs to get the absolute best out of Meat Loaf. Two insanely talented people gone. R.I.P.

Wow Elizabeth, this is one of your finest examples of outstanding analysis. Virtually all of the songs written by the one and only Jim Steinman are mini operas and Meatloaf was the finest purveyor of their dramatic content. I wore out both my original vinyl record and later cassette of this album but thankfully the CD has stood the test of time.

Fun fact: Ellen Foley, who sang on the studio album, declined doing the live tour and was replaced by Karla DeVito. So for the music video, you're seeing DeVito onscreen but hearing Foley's vocals. "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" would be a great follow-up to this song.

@WhizzingFish12 Год назад

Meat Loaf is mesmerizing to watch perform. He put every single ounce of his considerable weight into every song he sang. Gloriously raw and expressive. And supposed to have been a really good man as well. He was a cult icon for a reason. Glad you get him. And kudos to Jim Steinman who wrote almost all of his music. RIP to both of them - they died the same year.

@michaelkoch3251 Год назад

Meatloaf was once in a generation, and this song is completely timeless. You have to do the album version of "Objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are", along with other people's suggestions of "For crying out loud". Great video btw. :)

No, There have been multiple generations since this song and still no new Meatloaf. He was once in a lifetime if not more.

@barryammenhauser5796 Год назад

The song that defined Meatloaf and a generation. Pure Steinman, if you heard one of his solo songs you would swear it was a Meatloaf song. His writing ability and Meatloaf's singing ability together were shear perfection. When this song came out there was nothing bigger. And yes the extended version has a longer guitar intro which is also amazing.

@paulwood5803 Год назад

Jim Steiman's solo Ablum Bad For Good was meant to be Meatloafs second album following from Bat Out of Hell, but Meat had vocal problems at the time and couldn't record it, so eventually Steinman sang and released it himself as he couldn't be sure Meat would ever be able to record it. By the way, Steinman does a brilliant job on Bad For Good, he's not Meat but he does a very good attempt at doing it in Meat's style.

@ColeDedhand Год назад

Hello Elizabeth, I've been watching your channel almost ever since you started it. I absolutely love what you do. I think what you should do with meatloaf is, do all of the songs from bat out of hell, and do them in the order in which they are on the album. Every song on the album is phenomenal. Meatloaf's passion is the most amazing thing I've ever heard or seen when it comes to singing. I never had the opportunity to see him in concert, but I have seen concerts of him on video and on RU-vid. Hopefully someday you will sit down and play the whole album and truly listen to it. You will find it amazing. I hope you have a wonderful day.

@cubablue602 Год назад

I love your point as to how emotionally complex the vocal delivery is. You never really know what to think about it. Triumph, reflection, sadness and despair all entwined together and, yeh, it all seems to be coming from a deeply personal place of experience. Great song that lives on and on.

@duckylove3930 Год назад

One of the very few albums where I listen to each and every song, sometimes repeatedly. 46 years later and the power of this album blows me away.

I bought this album for "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad" (still one of my all time favorites) and quickly fell in love with the whole thing. 45 years later I still remember the words to all the songs. I saw him on his Unplugged tour in 1999 or so. Smaller more intimate theater in Jacksonville Florida. It was a dream come true.

@scottNNJ Год назад

The music and the vocals in Meat Loaf’s music, and particularly in this song, take you on such an emotional rollercoaster. It’s like a Shakespearian romance-drama-tragedy all wrapped into one musical performance, perfectly.

@bigjohn962 6 месяцев назад

There are musicians that I deem as freaks of nature, not a freak in a bad way but a good way in that no one else can do what they could with the right song. Meatloaf was a one of a kind and there will never be another one to replace him. Talented not only in singing but expression, acting and showmanship. Rarely does the world get the whole package rolled up in one. I miss Meatloaf and I know he will RIP. He was a God-fearing man, and I know he is entertaining in heaven.

@rwfrench66GenX Год назад

This is a great “blue collar” rock opera album. I say blue collar in the sense that the analogies and concepts are just being honest and open. In Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad there’s a line that says “But you’ve been cold to me so long I’m crying icicles instead of tears” and in For Crying Out which is a beautiful love song done with just a piano but one of the lines says “For pulling me away when I'm starting to fall For revving me up when I'm starting to stall And all in all for that I want you”

Meat was asthmatic and there was always an oxygen tank at the side of the stage. He also travelled with three differing sizes of clothing, cos he would loose soooo much when on tour from the live performances!!! So that shows HOW much he put into singing!! Broke my heart when Meat died. Fell in love with him and his music at 13, after watching the Rocky Horror Picture Show and Meat playing Eddie and singing Hot Patootie. I’m 45 this year and still love him and his music. People think I’m weird that I find his music so calming, so relaxing, when there’s so much in each song. When I die, if I cannot donate my body to science, I want Bat Outta Hell played loud while the coffin slides back and the curtains close, for cremation xxx

@grandy2875 Год назад

As a teenager this whole album was constantly playing/blaring on cassette in the car and vinyl in the house, pumped through a set of AR90s and a Marshall stack, courtesy of my music mad brothers. So much of this album was regarded as "mood" music because of its driving rhythms and climactic crescendos... many conceptions were made in the era because of this music... it's one of those albums that will forever be timeless classic rock and so very very beautiful. The world has lost some of the greatest artists of our time but their music will be with us always...RIP Michael and Jim...🥺

@metalmephit 7 месяцев назад

Speaking of his words that are so clear, before he was known, he auditioned for a role on the rocky horror picture show. When he came on stage the director instantly dismissed him as he was a large man. But he was the only one who could sing every word at the right speed and reach the back of the theatre. And so eddy was born. I love meatloaf. He was my introduction to music and created my love for his sound. Bat out of hell, back I to hell was the first cd I ever brought. And yes you youngons, cds were amazing!

I feel lucky to have been able to see him perform. This song is really good but maybe check out "For Crying Out Loud", that is such an emotional song. . .

Bat out of hell, being a classic. Meatloaf's voice just matched all of it. Then Bat Out of Hell 2, just as good. :) What a loss to us all, and the female vocalist was just the icing on the cake. It was quite cheeky for the time, like the introduction to Hot Summers Night. :)

That one lyric, is I’m gonna hit the highway like a battering ram on a silver/black Phantom Bike! Also this entire album is a Rock Opera/Concept album, in that with this being the opening song, where our hero is dying after a motorcycle accident… the rest of the album is him remembering all of the key moments of his life up to that point. The rock opera version of the proverbial’life passing before your eyes’ … sheer brilliance, and an all time powerful voice. And to think He wasn’t on Tolling Stones top 200 all time voices. But then again neither was Geoff Tate or Steve Perry. Which immediately discredits that entire list. Obviously RS puts out these ridiculous lists to create controversy just to try and stay relevant.

The connection you mentioned for bat out of hell, and I would do anything for love, was purposeful. I am a bit surprised you did the two songs in reverse order, since they are part 1 and part 2 of the same song. You just happened to do part two first and that took a little meaning out of it in the process. We were all pretty shocked when he added a finale to his original hit. He didn't disappoint. Meat Loaf Aday was one of the best artists of the times in his line of singing. If you ever get the chance, watch Blacktop. A movie he starred in.

@rayholt2819 Год назад

My mom and I used to listen to this song all the time when I was growing up, now that she's passed away I find myself crying anytime I listen to Meatloaf.

@lindae2524 Год назад

The way I relate to this powerful song is this: There is this very unhappy young man who hates where he is. ("Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole. Everything is stunted and lost. And nothing really rocks and nothing really rolls and nothing's really worth the cost") But he has one bright light, his love. He is going to get out come hell or high water but had one last night with her before he makes his break for it. He is finally going for it, he is getting out but she is still on his mind and "never see's the curve till it's way too late". But that isn't going to stop his soul/heart from getting out & it triumphs over death and cannot be held back. When he says that somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell means he's an angel. (like in "It's a wonderful life"getting his wings) At the very end there's a soft kind of humming that sound like angels. A kind of ethereal sound. So to me, he made it out. Still sad but triumphant. It's a angry song through most of it. I always turned the sound up very loud for this song. On the same side there's another soft pretty song called Heaven can wait. So I followed up Bat out of Hell with Heaven can wait. I couldn't leave it angry because it got to me so much. I could relate too much.

@dabear2438 Год назад

When the album first came out (and in the days when you had to physically walk into a Record Bar at the mall to buy them), a friend's grandmother had asked her what she wanted for Christmas. She told her grandmother she wanted this particular album. So grandmother strode into the unfamiliar store and looked around in confusion, not knowing where to start. The store employee asked if she needed help, to which the perplexed elder lady responded, "Yes, I'd like Pork Chop 'Go To Hell'". And we've called it that ever since...

@catminister1075 Год назад

Have to remember at the time of the release of Bat Out Of Hell meatloaf was an anomaly, there was nothing like him, there was always the feeling of a rock opera, dramatic well produced, and naturally an ode to Rocky Horror and his performance as Eddie. Have a listen to Paradise By The Dashboard Lights. Thanks again, im loving your analysis its making look at vocalists differently and deeper.

Talking of standout lead singers in bands - how about reviewing Justin Hayward/Moody Blues with their epic songs list - "Nights & White Satin" - "Forever Autumn" - "Isn't life Strange" - "Nights Winters Years" - "Have You Heard" - "Watching and Waiting" - "I Dreamed last Night" - "To Our Children's Chidren" - "Threashold of A Dream" - "Insanity Hypnotic" - and many more classic songs they produced. That voice of Justin Hayward is sublime especially when he was in his peak and also especially when they performed at Royal Albert Hall with the World festival orchestra backing them in May 2000

"Two Out of Three Ain't" Bad would be a great next Meat Loaf song to check out or "More Than You Deserve" or "Paradise By the Dashboard Light"

IIRC he started out in music theater, which had a HUGE impact on his music, and thus performances. He over exaggerats his mouth movements because in theater, it's important for the audience to see the actor's dialogue as well as hear it.

I only saw him live once (1 May 1993) and he was fantastic! I saw a few live gigs on TV where he was not that great though. This said I am a huge fan. What a story teller and great interpreter of songs! A totally unique singer. And let's not forget that the songs were written by Jim Steinman, one of the greatest genius ever.

Meatloaf is so satisfying to hear. I don't listen to individual songs. I have to listen to the whole album. I feel like album music is going away these days. Usually it's one or 2 good songs with a bunch of filler material. This album is one of my favorite driving tunes.

Meatloaf was in both the stage show and movie of the Rocky Horror Picture Show

The late Jim Steinman (playing the 88s) was a genius in his orchestration of this epic piece of work. You can also find this same epic quality in Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse Of The Heart. Another Jim Steinman epic song. I'd like to hear your take on that one....
