Meat Loaf, who had collaborated with Steinman on most of his hit songs, had wanted to record the song for years, but Steinman refused, saying he saw it as a "woman's song". Steinman won a court case, which prevented Meat Loaf from recording it. Girl group Pandora's Box went on to record it, and it was subsequently made famous through a cover by Celine Dion, which upset Meat Loaf because he was going to use it for a planned album with the working title ''Bat Out of Hell III''. Alternatively, Meat Loaf has said the song was intended for '' Bat Out of Hell II: Back into Hell'' and given to the singer in 1986, but they both decided to use "I'd Do Anything for Lo ...
