Meat Loaf "Bat Out of Hell" performed by The Classic Rock Show 

The problem I often have with Meat Loaf covers is that most people that I see do them are just singing the songs. Very few capture the raw power and emotion of Meat Loaf's voice. This cover did it right. So much oomph behind the vocals. These are songs that were written like an opera. Each one is a play just as much as a song. It's not just words. It's a role. You have to put the emotion into it, and these singers did that so well. If you couldn't tell, I'm a huge Meat Loaf fan.

My god, there is no way I could sit through that performance. I’d be on my feet and acting like I was 18 again - bloody awesome. RIP Meat, you were a huge part of my teenage years ya legend.

The fact that they needed 2 vocalists to cover this as well as they did just emphasises the incredible vocal range Meatloaf (RIP) had. Absolute Legend. Fantastic energy in this cover and the twin guitarists were absolutely 'on point'

For those coming to check if the new version is better I guess you will agree that this is the best

This is the greatest and most honoured tribute to Meat Loaf, ever.

Rip Meat Loaf and Thank you for all the great music. This is a monster of a cover, awesome done👍

RIP Jim Steinman. We'll miss you dearly. You wrote all of Bat Out of Hell and Hell II, not to mention all the great singles from Bonnie Tyler, Celine Dion and more.

Simply put, there are tribute bands and then there's The Classic Rock Show.

I've honestly never heard a cover of Bat Out of Hell until now, and I never want to hear another one for the rest of my life. This is perfection

R.i.p. meatloaf. You guys did this song justice and killed it!!👍

I’m 52 and almost choked up watching this. This is how a Meatloaf song should be done. These guys really honored him with this version and the orchestra. Where can I see more of this band?

If they don't play at Least, Two or More, Meatloaf Songs at My Funeral, I'm Refusing to Go !!!

Ok, I am 62 and generally hate covers because I lived through the originals... They killed this. Cheers from Toronto. ☮

I am a Meat Loaf fan and can say NEVER THOUGHT ANYONE COULD DO HIS MUSIC. AMAZING. AMAZING THANK YOU.

RIP Meatloaf. These guys have made a fitting tribute to your great talent.

Never been into rock or Meat Loaf in particular, but this completely turned me around. Have been watching this vid at least 50 times and it only gets better every time.

I simply cannot imagine a better performance of this Steinman/Meatloaf Masterpiece, and by a mile this is my favorite online! It is just EPIC in every way from the incredible, world class musicianship to the perfect vocal performance. It wouldn't surprise me at all if nothing was even touched up in post production. I always watch this if I need a lift in my spirits and it never fails! Bravo and standing ovation!

The two front men singing with so much passion...Fantastic band and show, Just awesome.

They also had the best line up they've ever had. Don't know how many times I've just sought this performance over and over again through the years. Outstanding. Each one.

The world lost a musical lyrical GENIUS, Jiim Stienman. You will be missed

Best cover of BAT OUT OF HELL I ever heard. Great band, great voices. A tribute to the master!

First time I've ever heard anyone even attempt a Meatloaf cover and they killed it!

I just stumbled on this - Bat Out of Hell is my favorite album - i wore it out in my teens-- i know every minute detail of the entire album. This performance just blew me away. Absolute musical perfection and presentation. Meatloaf and Jim would be proud. Bravo !!!

Nobody can match the raw vocal power of meatloaf but this was the best attempt I've ever heard! RIPBrother!

Steinman was a musical genius and this is possibly the greatest epic rock song ever written. And this was a perfect cover of this.

That might be the best cover song I have ever heard in my life. EVER. I am floored.

Most intense performance I've heard in a very long time rips through the soul like a bat out of hell

When I went to see the classic rock show this year they performed this song and rrudey dud such a good job of singing in it❤❤❤❤

That is one of the most enjoyable 10 mins of my life. Magnificent

Incredible. The best performance of this song I’ve heard, second only to the loaf!

Still listening this one a few times a week. Just can't get enough. Genius! The people who heard that live are blessed.... So sad the shows are not in the Netherlands 😭

R.I.P Jim Steinman... Thank you Jim 🤘🏻 🦇

Whoa! Best non-Meat version I've ever heard!

This is absolutely the BEST cover I've heard for this song! Actually choked me up. Longtime Meat Loaf fan, part-time pro drummer & keyboard player.

Can't get better than this.Take a bow guys.

I have watched this video a hundred times and I never get over how great a job you all did. #amazing

Being a Meatloaf fan all I can say is "WOW"

I saw them last night and after seeing live music for nearly 40 years I can honestly say they are some of the best musicians I have seen, every song was note perfect and they had so much energy.

This is not just Meat Loaf, It's Sirloin Loaf. Fantastic.

Best Cover ever done.. Rest my case-:)

I cannot praise this performance enough! It was absolutely incredible!

Jim Steinman an Meatloaf would be proud to hear this

OMG! I mean OMG! This was FANTASTIC!!!

What makes them THE BEST COVER BAND is they stay true to the original note for note without adding their own spin.

I have never heard a cover band do a Good Meatloaf cover, let alone Bat Out of Hell!! This group is great!!

1 of the great rock ballads... deserves this attention! RIP Meatloaf - before his injury there was no one better! - these guys nailed it!

RIP Jim - Thanks for the musical trips to hell and back.

Seen "The Classic Rock Show" several times and this was the best lineup.

RIP Mr. Aday. Thank you for the memories.

Wow! Can't understand how the audience sits through this, even though they are most post 50! You guys, nailed it!

Excellent, I like the two vocalists playing to their strengths. I was ready to say only Meat can do this song but I enjoyed this version.

Thank you Jim Steinman and Meatloaf for giving us this masterpiece.

The mere fact that they needed two lead singers to accomplish what meat loaf was capable of doing on his own is a testament to how talented he really was. I'm ashamed my generation doesn't truly recognize the greatness that is meat loaf.

The chap with the beard has got an amazing voice. So much like Meat Loaf

Holy crap.. I am a died in the wool Meat loaf fan.. This was awesome.. How have I nopt seen this.. Bloody well done. OK - Just thank you. you guys must be amazing live, .

This ist from you the best version from this song. Thank you !!!!

The very best cover - ever. Meatloaf isn't gone, but this is massive respect to a master

Jim Steinman is a genius. I had forgotten how good the bass line in this song is! great cover!!!

F#cking amazing !! Meatloaf is legend. You all did him proud on this.

Awesome cover!!

This performance is so underrated. It’s simply unbelievable the sound on this cover. Grammy deserving performance !

One of the best songs ever...and you do it...

Stumbled into this one after watching the original live performance by Meat Loaf on the day of his passing. Wow, just wow. Incredible performance of each single musican. This cover can't be better, so much dedication, I am in awe, best cover ever

Can't count how many times I've watching this and other videos from the Classic Rock Show! A must see live band

RIP Jim Steinman... one of the best songs ever... thanks fore all...

Wow. Incredible vocals and spectacular musicianship. Mr. Loaf is smiling.

NAILED IT!! Well done.

I’ve watched this cover many times and still amazes me how good it is ,intact I’d go as far to say it’s as good as the original,very talented musicians

Of all of the covers that I have watched form these folks, this is my favorite. This is an extremely ballsey song to attempt and they did a great job. It isn't just the Meat parts, it is the Steinman parts. In every one of their covers, it is this keyboardist that is invariably spot on. This is great. I love this song and I have since 1977 when my brother brought it home form the record (yes record) store.

One of the finest most amazing performances I've ever seen. Especially from a Cover Band. Bravo!!!!!

“Then like a sinner before before the gates of heaven I’ll come crawling back to you”. Beautiful lyrics by Jim Steinman I love that breakdown it touches my soul RIP MEATLOAF and JIM STEINMAN THANK YOU

I'll say it again - this is so good

Holy shit!!! Gioose bumps!! Must listen to it MANY times. Aaaahhhhhhhhhh.....

This is the single greatest thing I've ever seen in my whole entire life

This is perfection

Had never heard this song all the way through before I discovered 'The Classic Rock Show'. Now I play this song and the rest of the show all the time. It's brilliant.

Wow, these people are really good. Watched a few of their videos now.

*6:07** Wow! Just wow🔥*

Perfect cover by one of the most brilliant set of muscians I have ever heard live.

He sang this in London last Tuesday, absolutely fantastic!

Huge shout out to the musicians, they nailed it!

Best ever Classic Rock Show - brilliant musicians!

Just one thing to say .... AMAZING

It just gets better every time I watch👍🥰

As a major Meat Loaf fan from the 70’s, I freaking LOVE this version! They do a great job! I will just say with a wink and a smile that they have two singers to take on the job of the original Meat! 😜

GREAT job! Brought tears to my eyes. I can still remember so many of my high school classmates bringing this epic album to school (we lent and/or traded albums with friends in the hallways and lunch room) back in the late 70's, when I was a high school student in New Jersey. You could tell which albums were epic just by seeing how many copies were being carried around with text books! R.I.P. Meat Loaf... your music lives on!

Brits are fortunate to enjoy the talent of "The Classic Rock Show" live while we here in Ontario, Canada are blessed with "Classic Albums Live". So much music, so many talented singers & musicians. Thank you, thank you.

that is a ridiculously hard song to pull off in so many ways. awesome!

THIS KID CAN SING SOLO AND MAKE A NAME FOR HIMSELF.., FANTASTIC VOICE HE HAS.., ROCK ON KID...!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my god, today of all days, I'm crying like a baby. RIP Meat you're a star forever.

Every time I watch this, I’m just blown away at the energy and talent. Holy cow, you guys can bring it! Wow!!

This is SO GOOD! love this song 🤘

What a professional bunch!!!!

As a lifelong Meat Loaf fan I never thought I'd see a version that came close to the passion and energy from the big man, but this was absolutely fantastic, totally does it justice.

Wow I've watched this video more than a dozen times it's awesome. 👍👍

I finished high school in '77 ... at 6'4 300 lbs (38"waist,58"chest) hair down past my ass, I lived like I was 10ft tall and bullet proof. I ran with bikers, chased all the women and pillaged their villages. This album came out, and it literally sang my life. It is unequivocally my favorite album of all time. (Many very close seconds). I am so grateful that these guys do this song the justice it deserves. Thanks... glad I found you !!!

RIP Meat Loaf. Thank you. 😥😢

Absolutely amazing.

I got the Bat Out of Hell album for my birthday in sixth grade. Yes, I'm that old. I still remember all the words and just sang along. This is such an amazing cover! THANK YOU!

Just bloody freakin awesome .. i swear all the cells in my body where bouncing up and down and having a good time
