"I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" is a song written by
Jim Steinman, and recorded by Meat Loaf with Lorraine Crosby. The song
was released in August 1993 as the first single from the album Bat Out
of Hell II: Back into Hell. The last six verses feature a female singer
who was credited only as "Mrs. Loud" in the album notes. She was later
identified[when?] as Lorraine Crosby. However, she does not appear in
the video, in which her vocals are lip-synched by Dana Patrick. Meat
Loaf promoted the single with American singer Patti Russo.
The
power ballad was a commercial success, reaching number one in 28
countries. The single was certified platinum in the United States and
became Meat Loaf's first and only number-one single on the Billboard Hot
100 chart and the UK Singles Chart, and was the best-selling single of
1993 in the United Kingdom. The song earned Meat Loaf a Grammy Award for
Best Rock Vocal Performance, Solo. Thanks to AussieRock
