<Dt> Part III . Praying for the End of Time </Dt> <P> Back in the present, the characters can no longer stand each other's presence . However, the male character cannot possibly break his vow and hence is now praying for the end of time to relieve him from his obligation . The song fades out on the situation, juxtaposing his gloomy "It was long ago, it was far away, it was so much better than it is today!" in the left channel with her nostalgic "It never felt so good, it never felt so right, we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife" in the right channel . </P> <P> In early live performances of the song, this part (and thus the conclusion of the song itself) was followed by a spoken - word epilogue by Meat Loaf and Karla DeVito, where they, still in character as the two protagonists, argued about what to keep after the couple's divorce (having been presumably married for a number of years). The argument was cut short by DeVito shouting "...And I'll keep the baby!", which left Meat Loaf's character speechless as he apparently ignored the existence of a baby; immediately after, he ended the argument by screaming incoherently at her . The exchange was repeated with different female vocalists, in different versions and with different endings, in most of Meat Loaf's subsequent live tours and remains in the set to the present day, when it is still occasionally performed by Meat Loaf and his current featured vocalist Patti Russo . </P> <P> 35mm prints of a live - on - soundstage performance of "Paradise" were struck and initially sent to many theaters holding midnight screenings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, as a short subject to play before the feature . Very few of these prints are still extant and / or in playable condition . The video also received healthy airplay in the first years of MTV, despite its relative age to the new artists the channel was showcasing . </P>
