I love this song and, like post Bat II albums, I never thought (maybe naively)
about who wrote the song, I just liked it or not. But on this one (and feel
free to tell me I'm an idiot for thinking so) I honestly thought it was an old
Steinman song that had been brought into Bat III. It was only reading threads here,
and then checking the CD booklet, that I realised it is not a Steinman song.

Please don't misunderstand this as an 'I don't like Jim comment',
cause to me there is no finer song and album than Bat Out of Hell
and I hold both Meat and Jim (and Todd and others) in the highest of regards for this.

I just think that this great song shows that Meat is supremely talented when he is given quality material, regardless of who wrote it.
