Answer: And the beach was burning

"You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth (Hot Summer Night)" was Meat Loaf's first single for the "Bat Out of Hell" album, with "For Crying Out Loud" for the B side. Released in October 1977, it didn't chart until almost a year later, reaching number 39 on the Billboard Hot 100.

2. Choose the Meat Loaf song: "But there's a border to somewhere waiting"

3. Finish the lyrics: "The snow is really piling up outside"

Answer: I wish you wouldn't make me leave here

The lyrics all come from the Meat Loaf song "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad", which reached number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February, 1978. Oddly enough, the B side was "For Crying Out Loud", which had already been released several months prior, in October, 1977.

4. Choose the Meat Loaf song: "There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye and a blade shining oh so bright"

Answer: Bat Out of Hell

The song is obviously 1977's "Bat Out of Hell", one of the most popular classic rock songs ever. The nearly two minute guitar and keyboard intro was performed by Todd Rundgren, who also produced the album. When the single was released in 1979, the length was cut from over nine minutes to just under five minutes.

5. Choose the Meat Loaf song: "There were moments of gold and there were flashes of light"

Answer: It's All Coming Back to Me Now

This song, written by Jim Steinman in 1989, was intended to appear on Meat Loaf's "Bat Out of Hell II" album. However, it was decided to cut the song from the album and replace it with "I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That". Steinman later let Celine Dion sing it in 1996, which caused a legal dispute between he and Meat Loaf because the song was supposed to be on Meat Loaf's "Bat Out of Hell III" album. Meat Loaf was finally allowed to perform the song in 2006.

6. Finish the Meat Loaf lyrics: "Ain't no doubt about it, we were doubly blessed"

Answer: Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed

When first released as a single in 1978, it was one of the longest recordings on a 45 rpm record. In the United States it reached number 39, but was a number one hit is several European countries. The baseball announcer commentary near the middle of the song was performed by Phil Rizzuto, who at the time was actually an announcer for the New York Yankees.

7. Finish the lyric: "And some days it don't come easy"

Answer: And some days it don't come hard

Answer: She used my body just like a wound

The lyrics come from the song "Objects in the Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are". The song centers on a middle-aged man remembering his younger days and the sorrow from all the memories, each memory being one-third of the song. It reached number 38 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1994.

10. Choose the song: "You must have spent a lot of time rehearsing each and every line"
