Songfacts:  You can leave comments about the song at the bottom of the page.

This song was written by Jim Steinman, who also wrote many hit songs for Meat Loaf and Bonnie Tyler. Steinman has said that the lyrics to the song were inspired by the novel Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. (thanks, Jim - Summit, NJ)

Pandora's Box, an all-girl group assembled by Jim Steinman, originally recorded this in 1989. Despite a lavish Ken Russell video the single limped to #51 in the UK. (thanks, Edward Pearce - Ashford, Kent, England)

In 2006 Meat Loaf released his version of the song as duet with Norwegian singer Marion Raven, which he thought would capture the feelings between the man and his dead lover. Meat Loaf claimed, however, that he recorded the song to create a friendship with Steinman which had turned sour in recent years. It appeared on Meat Loaf's album Bat Out Of Hell 3: The Monster Is Loose. (thanks, Isaac - C-Town, OH)

After Jim Steinman penned this, Meatloaf had hoped to bag the song for himself. "That was my song," Meat Loaf laughingly told Billboard magazine in 2006. "I wanted to record it, and Jim said, 'Let's wait,' and so I took him at his word. The next thing you know, Celine Dion is recording it."

Have not heard the Celine Dion version, but Meatloaf version is cool.
- Ankit, Bangalore, India

It is actually a beautiful song. I have it on my MySpace profile right now because it is excactly how I feel about this situation right now. I need to get over this jerky man very fast and plan on slamming the door and not looking back, as the lyrics suggest.
