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

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'

[raymondmassie]

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 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.

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

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

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

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

[minty_Joe]

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.

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?

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

[johantornkvist]

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

[jmmacb]

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

[johngoddard]

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

[candacebelanger]

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

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!

[soulshine]

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

[chrillebjork]

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

[rickeyzinn]

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

[Charles-jjsu]

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