"It's All Coming Back to Me Now" is a power ballad written by Jim Steinman in 1983. Inspired by Wuthering Heights, Steinman attempted to write "the most passionate, romantic song" he could ever write.
Although it was intended for Bat out of Hell II and given to Meat Loaf in 1986, Steinman and Meat Loaf decided to use "I'd Do Anything for Love (but I Won't Do That)" for Bat 2 and save this song for Bat III.
It has had three major releases, all roughly belonging to the soft rock genre. The first version appeared on the Pandora's Box concept album Original Sin. It was then recorded by Celine Dion for her Falling Into You album. Dion's version was a commercial hit, reaching #2 in the US Billboard Hot 100 and #3 in the UK singles chart. Meat Loaf's version, a duet with Norwegian singer Marion Raven, released in October 2006, entered the UK singles chart at number 6.
Marion Raven was chosen for Meat Loaf's version because the timbre of her voice starkly contrasts to Meat Loaf's. In promotional interviews, Meat Loaf said that "I believe that the version that Marion Raven and myself did on this album is the definitive version." The music video for this version is below. It was directed by P. R. Brown.
