Meat Loaf - Seize The Night Lyrics

That's me in the picture

You make a pretty great giant bat

2:24 sounds like Metallica.

So, is there anything in Dance of the Vampires Steinman didn’t recycle?

Every tune is brought back from the grave

Song is my jam

Lyrics :

Come with me and bless the night
Let the darkness be your salvation
Curse the day - escape the light
Break the chain of imagination

Come with me and seize the night
Now's the time for some inspiration
Leave the day and loose the light
No taboos only new sensations...

In the shadows of the city
A hero's waiting for the call
And all the angels are waking up
And all the devils start to fall

In the shadows of the city
They're dying for a thrill
They're going out over the edge
They're moving in for the kill

You gotta curse the day: it's nothing but a merciless light
So open up your arms and then you get down on your knees
You suck in all the darkness and you're ready now to seize
Seize the night
Seize the night

Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine! [etc.]

Dies irae, Kyrie! Sanctus, Sanctus exultate!

Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last
Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last

Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last...

Let your dreams out of their cages
Every passion and desire
Let your visions be outrageous
Set your fantasies on fire

Everything will be permitted
There'll be nothing left to fear
I got the magic in your body
Your inhibitions disappear

You gotta curse the day: it's nothing but a merciless light
So open up your arms and then you get down on your knees
You suck in all the darkness and you're ready now to seize
Seize the night
Seize the night

Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine! [etc.]

Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last
Bless the night, memories collide to change the past
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last

Carpe Noctem...
Carpe Noctem...

Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last...

Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Sanctus, Sanctus exultate!..

Come with me and bless the night
Let the darkness be your salvation
Curse the day - escape the light
Break the chain of imagination

Come with me and seize the night
Now's the time for some inspiration
Leave the day and loose the light
No taboos only new sensations...

Muchas gracias colega. Thank you very much colleague.

The best Meat Loaf song ever. Written by none other than Jim Steinman. Instead of other Meat Loaf where singing is the only imporant thing (Or almost), this one has several amazing instrumental parts. I love it.

Tanz der Vampire ist 1000 mal besser nix gegen Meat loaf ...aber er ist bei weitem nicht der beste Sänger .... auch ist fat jeder Graf besser als bonnie tyler und das die Gitarren da stören muss nicht extra erwähnt werden ...würde ich das Musical nicht kennen würde ich das hier echt super finden so stören mich zu viele Sachen ...

Meat Loaf hat es halt an seinen Stil angepasst.

Thank you. Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman rock my soul.

Tanz der Vampire

@Simon Bellamy It's a musical which has the song in it ;)

My favorite musical!

I'm gleefully singing to both the English lyrics and Carpe Noctem now... =)))

Great live!!!!!!👍👍

Epic! ❤️

Sounds like a little bit of "Good Girls go to Heaven" in there

The opening music orchestra was "The Storm" from Jim Steinman's solo album.

Also known as the overture to Tanz der Vampire now. ;)

@Jim Nuziard ....

LYRICs are wrong

Come with me and bless the night
Let the darkness be your salvation
Curse the day - escape the light
Break the chain of imagination

Come with me and seize the night
Now's the time for some inspiration
Leave the day and loose the light
No taboos only new sensations...

In the shadows of the city
A hero's waiting for the call
And all the angels are waking up
And all the devils start to fall

In the shadows of the city
They're dying for a thrill
They're going out over the edge
They're moving in for the kill

You gotta curse the day: it's nothing but a merciless light
So open up your arms and then you get down on your knees
You suck in all the darkness and you're ready now to seize
Seize the night
Seize the night

Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Libera me, Domine!
Dies irae, Kyrie! Requiem da, Domine! [etc.]

Dies irae, Kyrie! Sanctus, Sanctus exultate!

Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last
Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last

Bless the night, before it has the chance to pass
Seize the night, you do what it takes to make it last...

Let your dreams out of their cages
Every passion and desire

There'll be nothing left to fear
