OK, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here,
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth,
There's the windup, and there it is, a line shot up the middle,
Look at him go. This boy can really fly! He's rounding first and really
turning it on now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for

second; the ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the
throw, and what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first, here he
comes, he's out! No, wait, safe-safe at second base, this kid
really makes things happen out there. Batter steps up to the
plate, here's the pitch-he's going, and what a jump he's got,
he's trying for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt-safe at
third! Holy cow, stolen base! He's taking a pretty big lead out
there, almost daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher
glances over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted down the third
base line, the suicide squeeze is on! Here he comes, squeeze
play, it's gonna be close, holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!

“Paradise by the Dashboard Light” is a song written by Jim Seinman. It was first released in 1977 on the album Bat Out of Hell, with vocals by the American musician Meat Loaf alongside Ellen Foley. It is a song about one of the most personal and controversial topics today — love and sex. People tend to have different perspectives when it comes to sex, based on their religious beliefs, cultural backgrounds or personal opinions. Sex and love can be either seperated or related, it depends on person. Sex can be perfectly amazing on its own, but sex without love is meaningless to some people. This idea is expressed and explained in this song “Paradiseby the Dashboard Light”.

Paradise By The Dashboard Lights Meatloaf

This song is structurally unique and it can be divided into three parts. The first part opens with the characters reminscing about days as a young high school couples. They parked by the lake where there was nobody around. It was dark and cold outside, so they started warm up themselves in a sexual manner. As the boy past the second and third base (cuddling and oral sex), and he was about to go all the way and bang her, the girl came up with some serious questions, which brings this song to the second part.

This part is the conversation between this high school couple. The girl is the kind of person who is lacking security, and she wants a life long commitment before going any further. However, the boy started hestating and promised he will give her an answer in the morning. Their conversation became intense and turned into an arguement towards the end.

(Girl) I gotta know right now
Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?

Paradise By Dashboard Light

(Boy) Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I’ll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it

In order to keep going further, the boy started swearing on god and mother’s grave that he will love her to the end of the time. This is the third part of the song. Back in the present, the characters can no longer stand each other’s presence. However, the male character cannot possibly break his vow and hence is now praying for the end of time to relieve him from his obligation. The song fades out on the situation, juxtaposing his gloomy “It was long ago, it was far away, it was so much better than it is today!” with her joyous “It never felt so good, it never felt so right, we’re glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife.”

I personally think that we should be open minded and respect all opinions about sex. If you prefer sex to be meaningful and with someone for whom you have deeper feelings, then never feel pressured to rush into it. You can wait until you get married to have sex. It doesn’t make you an “old fashion” or “frigidity”. Oppositely, if you are comfortable and happy having a purely sexual relationship and it’s not making you feel bad or causing problems in your life, enjoy it. You don’t need to deprive yourself of the experience out of some false sense of modesty. And don’t take it seriously on people’s label and judge about you.
