Meat Loaf

Marvin: Someone mentioned the possibility of Bat IV to me, and I just giggled. I don't know... this could be it. Once I'm locked into something like a Bat record, it becomes a real driving force and I become very motivated, but right now it's really difficult to imagine doing another one. I'm just really happy with this one.

(About the single 'It's All Coming Back to Me Now') Marvin: That was originally supposed to be on Bat Out Of Hell II. I wanted it to be a duet, and Jimmy said, 'Let's save it for Bat III.' So, we were saving it, but then it was given to Celine Dion... and so, I was bound and determined to do it on Bat III because that's what it's purpose was, and I think we did a version that's different enough from Celine Dion's to warrant being on the record.

(About working on Bat Out Of Hell III) Marvin: I thought Jim Steinman was tough and wants everything perfect, well... Desmond wants it even móre perfect and I didn't think that was possible. I've never worked so hard! I got a vocal coach for about four months and I've never done that before. But all the work really paid off because the vocals all sound great.
