I think this is the best clip form Meat Loaf!!
It's really good acting, but more important: It gives a extra dimension to the story of this song. The clips shows that this song is not only about a "battle" between two (or more) man (Meat en "my best friend(s)"), but that this song is also about being afraid of losing "her" to somebody else. Because the story in the clips appears to be a dream! (She says on the end that there was nobody else that night in the truck stop)
But not only the boys coming in the Truck stop, seems to be a dream to me, also the "fact" that Meat (the guy that Meat plays) has a relationship with the girl seems to be te imagination of himself.
After watching the video a must conclude this song is about fears en dreams. He dreams the girl would love him, but he is also afraid of other boys, who she may love more. A FANTASTIC video!
A think a good video shows the story of the song on a beatifull way (like the video "objects"), but this video gives the story an extra meaning,
so i give it a 10+/10!
