I did this on my friends karaoke with him last week! I say "did this" because the word "singing" doesn't really do it justice!

As soon as i heard it on the Kelly Show I was addicted

10/10

LostSoul · 28 Dec 2003, 08:14

The first time I heard it, I picked it on a jukebox!
I was looking for something... and I got the shivers when I saw the words "Meat Loaf"!!!

I liked it straight away.
I like how it is musically built and sung but it's not one of my favorites.

I do love the live version with this amazing intro with the "drums from heaven" (quoting Michael Marxen)! just love it live!

7/10 on the album
10/10 live!

**RadioMaster** · 08 Jul 2006, 20:03

Really really good,
that was the song where I turned from someone who thinks Meat´s music is good to a real fan.

Especially like the part where he´s trying to say something and is interrupted by patti and then they´re singing together with so much power!

IMO better than DIST

Live this track is awesome, the album version ain't far behind either......

10/10

duke knooby · 27 Dec 2006, 02:19

well well well, bit crap in my opinion, musically and lyrically bored me, but sung well, so 5.5 or 6 i reckon

geordieloaf · 27 Dec 2006, 02:23

9/10

djfierce · 27 Dec 2006, 14:54

one of my fave songs 10/10

**allrevvedup** · 27 Dec 2006, 16:11

Kind of a Anything for love meets i'd lie for you meets what about love (ok the last one came after this but still)

It's good, the video could've been better but you can't have it all.

It's an underrated album, with Did I Say That being one of the best songs meat has ever done

9/10

mark999 · 28 Dec 2006, 17:31

10/10 a real classic thet should have been saved for bat 3

robgomm · 30 Dec 2006, 17:07

It's okay, definately not a Bat song. It's really good live but that's just testament to how good Meat is live.

7 out of 10.

Evil One · 23 Jan 2007, 23:03

5 A very average song.

nope, forever young is the longest.

Great song

Better with the MSo

8/10

Forever Young isn't longer than Couldn't Have Said it Better

Forever Young is approximately 5:04 in length. The only reason it might appear longer is because there's a couple of minutes of silence before Mercury Blues (the hidden track) starts up, and this then brings the track length to a total of 10:51. Couldn't Have Said it better is 7:07

I like this song. One of my favourite non-Steinman songs.

8/10

And I hate her for it because she was there when it was recorded, yes she was there for the concert AND called me on her mobile when Meat did For Crying Out Loud, I'm still in therapy.
