@@RobSquadReactions At the beginning of the Song he tells the woman I want you, I need you , But there ain’t no way I’m ever going to love you. You got to listen for it but there’s a hitch. He sings. “You’ve been cold to me so long I’m crying icicles instead of tears.” He then says that there is only one girl that he has ever loved. But she left him saying. I want you , I need you. But there ain’t no way I’m ever going to love you. Now when you take the hitch into account. You realize he’s talking about the same woman. Who didn’t love him. But eventually fell in love with him to late. After he fell out of love with her. I wouldn’t call Meatloaf humourous so much as I would call him ironic. Of course if you find irony funny.

Me and my wife met him a few years a go a convention, we have met dozens of celebrities over the years and he by far was our favorite, he was so down to earth, every single person who stood in line got a few minutes to actually talk to him, he didn't rush at all he actually cared, when I was walking away I said thank you, and he grabbed my wrist and said, no thank you, without all of you I wouldn't be here. The fame never changed him, he was so humble. After I met him, I went home and watched every interview I could find, and he truly meant every word he said to me. Rip Meat there will never be anyone like you again.

"Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad" is a really sad song. I loved it as a kid, but I didn't realize the story until I got older. My interpretation is he could only love one woman, and she didn't love him back. Now it's years later, and he found someone who loves him... but he can't return the love because of the woman in his past. He'll always be hung up on her. He really DID tell the chorus from two different perspectives. Him in the present, and as we find out later, the only woman he'll ever love from the past. 😥 He's telling this woman the same thing the other woman told him years ago.

@antimatter2380 2 жыл бұрын

I always took it as that too but a year or so ago I read someone else's interpretation that suggested that it's the same woman. She came back after leaving him but since it crushed him and changed his perception of her, he can't love the new her because he's still hung up on the old her.

@stlee25 2 жыл бұрын

That was my interpretation as well

@andrewsokol2717 2 жыл бұрын

This is why I think it is the same woman (and I never realized this until a couple years ago when I also read it from another poster somewhere): Here are lyrics from the 1st verse (the current woman): I poured it on and I poured it out I tried to show you just how much I care I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout But you've been cold to me so long I'm crying icicles instead of tears And here are lyrics from the 2nd verse (woman from a long time ago): There's only one girl I'll ever love And that was so many years ago And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart She never loved me back Ooh I know Sounds like the same woman to me. She broke his heart many years ago, and now she wants to get back together. He can't get her out of his heart (because of their long relationship and the fact that he once did love her) and he wants and needs her, but he just can't love her anymore after she left his heart cold (made him cry icicles). If it were two different women, that first verse lyric wouldn't make much sense.

Great musician... thank you for honoring him. This was one of his most commercially successful songs. His other big one was "I Would Do Anything for Love (But I won't do that)". The video for that one is like a mini-movie. edit: My take on this song was always that the first part is him telling a woman that he can't love her but then at the end of the song he tells you why he couldn't love her because the only woman he ever truly loved did the same thing to him... that she wanted him, needed him, but couldn't love him and then left him.

Meatloaf brings so much emotion to his songs it feels like he really understands those feelings and can tap into them easily. In my mind, he was very underrated so I am thrilled that you two have found him and appreciate how good he really was. BTW, at the beginning of the song he is telling a woman he is never going to love her. Later in the song (where you guy stopped and talked) he says that there is only one girl that he ever loved and then goes on to sing about how she said she would never love him (but 2 out of 3 ain’t bad). ANOTHER GREAT SONG is You Took the Words Right Out of Mouth - awesome song.

I greeted him at the clubhouse door, by saying, “it’s an honor to meet you Mister Loaf”. He seemed at least mildly amused ☺️

"Few people understand this, as it is obscure: there is not a past love and a current girl in this. It's the same girl. She has changed her mind about him, but her inability to love him in the past has ruined it for him, so now even though she has changed her mind, the girl he once loved is gone as far as he is concerned." I remember this was a topic of conversation some years ago, and Meatloaf confirmed it. The woman left him because she didn't love him. When she tried to come back years later realizing she did love him, his love for her had died; he still wanted her, he still needed her, but he would never let himself love her again.

@@clfrancis doesn’t it really make more sense that he had his heart broken in his past and now he is in the same situation but reversed. To say “only one girl I ever loved” and have it be a version of the same girl seems like a reach. Sort of a Occam’s razor here.

The beginning of the song is HIM telling his current girl that he'll never love her (even though he wants her to stay the night because of the snowstorm outside... and because he does "want" and "need" her.) But she's crying and wants to leave. He tells her about the "only girl that I've ever loved" long ago. The last verse shows how that old girlfriend never loved him back and broke up with him using the same phrase that he's now ironically using to end his current relationship.
