Music video

During the music video, directed by Brian Grant, Meat Loaf is sporting a leather jacket and walks by various scenes dealing with 'modern' women. It starts out with a "Miss America" and "Mr. Right" who are newfound parents. Then it gets into a biker-type charade and leads into the big gospel-type chorus near the end. It fades towards the end, which in the cut of the audio version, it doesn't fade-out.
