"I Would Do Anything for (More) I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That) meat loaf. "I Would Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" is a Grammy Award winning song composed and written by Jim Steinman, and recorded by Meat Loaf. The song was released in 1993 as the first single from the album Bat out of Hell II: Back into Hell. It reached number one in twenty-eight countries,[1] the first being Australia on September 4, 1993, where it stayed for 8 weeks, becoming the highest selling single of the year there. It also stayed at number one for seven weeks in the United Kingdom. The single was certified platinum in the United States and became Meat Loaf's first number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and on the UK singles chart. The song also ranked at #44 on Blender's list of the "50 Worst Songs Ever".[2] It features a female vocalist who was credited only as "Mrs. Loud" in the album notes. She was later identified as Lorraine Crosby, a performer from North East England who regularly performs at holiday camps and social clubs.[3] She does not, however, appear in the video, in which her vocals are lipsynched by Dana Patrick. Meat Loaf promoted the single with American vocalist Patti Russo performing the live female vocals. The title of the song appears as an exophoric reference in "Getting So Excited," a song on Bonnie Tyler's Steinman-produced album Faster Than the Speed of Night, where it is a piece of conversation overheard in a bar.[4] The single cover is a cropped version of the painting Leavetaking by fantasy illustrator Michael Whelan,[5] who also painted the Bat out of Hell II cover. [edit] Music and lyrics The song opens with a guitar played to sound like a revving motorcycle. This is clearly a reference to Todd Rundgren's contribution in the middle of "Bat out of Hell". Roy Bittan's piano begins to play, along with the guitars. The vocals begin at the 1:50[6] point, which is where many pop songs are beginning their second chorus. Steinman "alternates... [a bombastic] style with mellow moments where the hard-hitting piano licks are fleshed out with ethereal synthesizer and choral-styled backing vocals."[7] And I would do anything for love I'd run right into hell and back These opening vocals are gentle, with piano and subtle backing vocals. The song then becomes much louder as the band, predominately piano, plays the main melody for twenty seconds. It remains loud for the first verse, and then quietening again for the chorus. The chorus continues, repeating the lines: I would do anything for love Anything you've been dreaming of But I just won't do that An instrumental section, lasting over 45 seconds, follows, with piano playing the title melody, accompanied by guitar and word-less background vocals by Todd Rundgren, Rory Dodd and Kasim Sulton. The lead vocals recommence with another verse. The popular phrase "sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll" was censored to become "Some days I just pray to the god of sex and drums and rock and roll."[8] The second chorus begins in stadium rock style, with the "But I'd never do it better than I'll do it with you..." lines more subdued. At the 9:28 point, the song transforms into a duet coda. The structure of the verses remain, but the female now asks what the male would do. He answers in the affirmative for the first four sections. Girl: Will you make me some magic with your own two hands? Can you build an emerald city with these grains of sand? Can you give me something I can take home? Boy: I can do that! For the final two sections, the girl guesses that he would eventually do things to upset her and their relationship: firstly that he'd forget all of their memories and feelings between them and want "to move on", and, secondly, would be "screwing around." Both times, he responds "But I won't do that." Allmusic said that "Meat Loaf sells the borderline-campy lyrics with a full-throated vocal whose stirring sense of conviction brings out the heart hidden behind the clever phrases. [edit] Length Steinman's songs are usually much longer than most other songs, and "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" is no exception. The song is a full twelve minutes, and Steinman cried when executives advised him that he had to cut it down to get radio play. Manager Allen Kovac warned that any song over five minutes would not be played on radio, saying that if Steinman and the group didn't make the cuts then the stations would. Even after they made the cuts, Steinman sent his own version to the stations.[9] The single version was whittled down to almost six minutes, where the entire motorcycle introduction is omitted. The video version was whittled down to seven minutes and thirty-eight seconds, where the motorcycle intro remains, but not in its entirety. In the video version and single version, the lengthy instrumental break is completely omitted. In the video and single versions, the refrain, which reads "I'd do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of, but I just won't do that", which is sung before the instrumental bridge, is to have been sung a repeated three times, but was whittled down to having the one line sung a repeated two times. That same refrain is sung again (only in the video version, where the line was omitted out of the single version, having appeared only once) before the "But I'll never stop dreaming of you..." verse, where the refrain is sung a repeated seven times, but was whittled down the line being sung only a repeated three times. In the single and video versions, the line that reads, "And some nights, I lose the feeling. And some nights I lose control. Some nights, I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder rolls" is omitted. Lorraine Crosby sings six verses in the complete song. In the video version, the second and third verses are omitted. In the single versions, the second, third, and fifth verses are omitted. I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That) is the longest song to reach number one on the Billboard charts. (Less)
