| What really gets me is Karla's start "You think I fly like an angel without any tears." The incredible melody and massive vocal make it sound like an angel flying and saying these things. Completely insane! Completely Steinman. Meat comes across like Rocky Balboa in Rocky 6 and Creed. Somewhat broken down and older but commanding and directing the story and going the distance one last time. "But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!" For me it's the most epic conclusion one could have hoped for after a massive 39 years. > > When I heard it for the first time, (and they actually > included "There are secrets I never can tell" which just > felt so wonderful to hear, it must have impacted on my > enjoyment of the song too), I thought.
