By Meat Loaf. By Jim Steinman. Arranged by Liz Garnett. A Cappella,Rock. Octavo. 14 pages. Liz Garnett #4313721. Published by Liz Garnett (A0.856210).
This is an extended drama in rock 'n' roll. Meatloaf's story tells of young love, young lust, hasty decisions and adult regret in a multi-sectioned song that verges on the operatic in its narrative urgency and expressive range.
The arrangement features a female soloist, and an optional spoken narrative section in the middle. It is shorter than Meatloaf's version, but still a full five minutes in length. It was originally commissioned along with my other two Meatloaf arrangements, but the three together are just two expressively huge to work as an a cappella show set. This one would work as a strong statement-piece, either as a closer, or the penultimate number followed by something shorter and lighter.
