@@RobSquadReactions At the beginning of the Song he tells the woman I want you, I need you , But there ain’t no way I’m ever going to love you. You got to listen for it but there’s a hitch. He sings. “You’ve been cold to me so long I’m crying icicles instead of tears.” He then says that there is only one girl that he has ever loved. But she left him saying. I want you , I need you. But there ain’t no way I’m ever going to love you. Now when you take the hitch into account. You realize he’s talking about the same woman. Who didn’t love him. But eventually fell in love with him to late. After he fell out of love with her. I wouldn’t call Meatloaf humourous so much as I would call him ironic. Of course if you find irony funny.

"Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad" is a really sad song. I loved it as a kid, but I didn't realize the story until I got older. My interpretation is he could only love one woman, and she didn't love him back. Now it's years later, and he found someone who loves him... but he can't return the love because of the woman in his past. He'll always be hung up on her. He really DID tell the chorus from two different perspectives. Him in the present, and as we find out later, the only woman he'll ever love from the past. 😥 He's telling this woman the same thing the other woman told him years ago.

@jaxmom9043 2 года назад

Exactly how I interpreted it.

@antimatter2380 2 года назад

I always took it as that too but a year or so ago I read someone else's interpretation that suggested that it's the same woman. She came back after leaving him but since it crushed him and changed his perception of her, he can't love the new her because he's still hung up on the old her.

@stlee25 2 года назад

That was my interpretation as well

@andrewsokol2717 2 года назад

This is why I think it is the same woman (and I never realized this until a couple years ago when I also read it from another poster somewhere): Here are lyrics from the 1st verse (the current woman): I poured it on and I poured it out I tried to show you just how much I care I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout But you've been cold to me so long I'm crying icicles instead of tears And here are lyrics from the 2nd verse (woman from a long time ago): There's only one girl I'll ever love And that was so many years ago And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart She never loved me back Ooh I know Sounds like the same woman to me. She broke his heart many years ago, and now she wants to get back together. He can't get her out of his heart (because of their long relationship and the fact that he once did love her) and he wants and needs her, but he just can't love her anymore after she left his heart cold (made him cry icicles). If it were two different women, that first verse lyric wouldn't make much sense.

@bawstonbredbeantownsfinest5249 2 года назад

Same here, with most of the songs of his growing up my parents loved his songs so that is how I heard them and fell in love with them, but as i got older started realizing the story and meaning in them.

@muddlepond Месяц назад

"but you've been cold to me so long I'm crying icicles instead of tears" is the best line in a song ever, in my humble opinion.

@mlong1958 2 года назад

The first part of the song is him talking to a girl, telling her he can't love her, and the last part is him recalling the girl that said the same thing to him, so many years ago. Basically, he can't love anyone because he is still in love with the girl that couldn't love him.

@rad608 5 месяцев назад

Me and my wife met him a few years a go a convention, we have met dozens of celebrities over the years and he by far was our favorite, he was so down to earth, every single person who stood in line got a few minutes to actually talk to him, he didn't rush at all he actually cared, when I was walking away I said thank you, and he grabbed my wrist and said, no thank you, without all of you I wouldn't be here. The fame never changed him, he was so humble. After I met him, I went home and watched every interview I could find, and he truly meant every word he said to me. Rip Meat there will never be anyone like you again.

It has been reported that before going on stage at every concert, Meatloaf would say to himself, "This might be the last chance you ever get to perform in front of an audience." And he ALWAYS left EVERYTHING out on that stage. He gave everything he had for every song during every concert. And THAT'S what made Meatloaf, Meatloaf.

That's Jim Steinman at the piano, who wrote all the songs in Meat's Bat Out of Hell album, as well as Bat Out of Hell II. Steinman wrote hits for other artists as well. "Total Eclipse of the Heart", sung by Bonnie Tyler, "Making Love Out of Nothing at All", sung and played by Air Supply", and others. Steinman was a nerdy guy who wrote grand, sweeping operatic rock songs, filled with passion, pathos, and wry humor. He died just a few months ago.

@ianbarnard4963 2 года назад

You mentioned Meatloaf's theatrics. He was in fact an actor primarily. He was part of the original cast in the broadway play "Hair", as well as movies like "fight club", and the cult classic "Rocky Horror Picture show", two of his more popular appearances, but he was in many more movies and television shows as well. He actually got into music as an alternative career.

Great musician... thank you for honoring him. This was one of his most commercially successful songs. His other big one was "I Would Do Anything for Love (But I won't do that)". The video for that one is like a mini-movie. edit: My take on this song was always that the first part is him telling a woman that he can't love her but then at the end of the song he tells you why he couldn't love her because the only woman he ever truly loved did the same thing to him... that she wanted him, needed him, but couldn't love him and then left him.

Meatloaf brings so much emotion to his songs it feels like he really understands those feelings and can tap into them easily. In my mind, he was very underrated so I am thrilled that you two have found him and appreciate how good he really was. BTW, at the beginning of the song he is telling a woman he is never going to love her. Later in the song (where you guy stopped and talked) he says that there is only one girl that he ever loved and then goes on to sing about how she said she would never love him (but 2 out of 3 ain’t bad). ANOTHER GREAT SONG is You Took the Words Right Out of Mouth - awesome song.

This one was the first one we heard on the radio. For context, I just turned 59 and my cousin is 61; she absolutely loved this! I became more of a fan in college because of Rocky Horror Picture Show. Meatloaf plays Eddie and sings one number, Hot Patootie, near the middle of the film. You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth is also worth a reaction, as is, the video of I Would Do Anything For Love with Meatloaf as either a Vampire or The Beast from Beauty And The Beast.

@debbiejohnson3418 2 года назад

I just finished watching your vid about Paradise by the Dashboard Light. Meatloaf hit upon so many truths in his songs. PBTDL is one of them. It's a classic, it's funny, it's loud, it's fast-moving. On the other end of the spectrum is this song, and I'm so thankful you put this one up, as well. I would not even care to think of how many people have lived the scenario presented in this song. There is no other song that comes as close to the definition of "bittersweet" as this song does. Just another one of the shining facets of the gift Meatloaf gave to us all.

@garyblackburn849 2 года назад

"Few people understand this, as it is obscure: there is not a past love and a current girl in this. It's the same girl. She has changed her mind about him, but her inability to love him in the past has ruined it for him, so now even though she has changed her mind, the girl he once loved is gone as far as he is concerned." I remember this was a topic of conversation some years ago, and Meatloaf confirmed it. The woman left him because she didn't love him. When she tried to come back years later realizing she did love him, his love for her had died; he still wanted her, he still needed her, but he would never let himself love her again.

The beginning of the song is HIM telling his current girl that he'll never love her (even though he wants her to stay the night because of the snowstorm outside... and because he does "want" and "need" her.) But she's crying and wants to leave. He tells her about the "only girl that I've ever loved" long ago. The last verse shows how that old girlfriend never loved him back and broke up with him using the same phrase that he's now ironically using to end his current relationship.

Every sing the album is fantastic and a 3 songs you reacted to is from this album.
