Meat Loaf – I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That) 1993 (Official Music video)

I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That) is a 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. The final verse features a female vocalist who was credited only as “Mrs. Loud” in the album notes. She was later identified as Lorraine Crosby, a club performer from North East England. 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 confused some listeners, who did not realize that each “that” is a reference to the particular promise that he made earlier in the same verse. The song was a commercial success, reaching number one in twenty-eight countries. 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 earned Meat Loaf a Grammy Award for Best Rock Vocal Performance, Solo.
