Bat Out Of Hell

Product Information

I never thought of them as personal songs in terms of my own life but they were personality songs. They were all about my obsessions and images. None of them takes place in a normal world. They all take place in an extreme world. Very operatic...they were all heightened. They don't take place in normal reality. [19]

Bat Out of Hell has sold over 43 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time. [4] It is certified 14× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). [5] It is also the best-selling album in Australia, having been certified 26× Platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA). [6] As of June 2019, it has spent 522 weeks in the UK Albums Chart, the second longest chart run by a studio album. [7] In 2012, Rolling Stone ranked it at number 343 on its list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. [8] [9] Ellen Foley, who appears on "Paradise by the Dashboard Light", first met Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman while they were all working together on the National Lampoon Road Tour, [38] so they had a history of performing over-the-top musical comedy sketches together. [39] The baseball commentary make-out section performed by New York Yankees announcer Phil Rizzuto was written with the announcer in mind, using phrases he would actually say during commentary. [40] Bat Out of Hell is often compared to the music of Bruce Springsteen, particularly the album Born to Run. Steinman says he finds that "puzzling, musically", although they share influences; "Springsteen was more an inspiration than an influence." [14] A BBC article added "that Max Weinberg and Roy Bittan from Springsteen's E Street Band played on the album only helped reinforce the comparison." [16] When staged in 1977, the cast of Neverland included Ellen Foley as Wendy [35] – who performs the lead female vocal on " Paradise by the Dashboard Light" on the album. The music for Neverland was performed by Orchestra Luna, and one of their members at the time was Karla DeVito. Foley was not available when it came time to go on tour for the album, so Karla DeVito took her place. In the various promotional music videos for the songs on the album Bat Out of Hell Karla DeVito's lips are synced to Ellen Foley's album vocals.
