Jim Steinman, the mastermind behind some of pop music’s most epic ballads of the past 40 years, has passed away at 73.

The Grammy-winning hitmaker who collaborated on chart toppers for Meat Loaf, Celine Dion, Bonnie Tyler, Barbara Steisand, Def Leppard and more, died on Monday in Connecticut, TMZ has confirmed. His death comes after an undisclosed medical emergency occurring 3:30 AM on Sunday, according to the state’s medical examiner.

Steinman’s “I’d Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That)” and other songs made up the bulk of Meat Loaf’s 1977 blockbuster record “Bat Out of Hell,” which went on to become one of the best selling albums of all time. The pair continued to work closely for volumes II and III of the rock music series. 

The karaoke mainstay “Total Eclipse of the Heart” helped launch Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler into legendary status with their 1983 song.

The enigmatic songwriter was known for drawing inspiration from the arts. His song “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now,” most famously performed by French-Canadian icon Celine Dion in 1996, was said to be inspired by Emily Brontë’s “Wuthering Heights.” Critics hailed Dion’s recording as a “highlight” of her English-language music career undoubtedly paving the way for her global, decade-spanning success. 

Steinman later received his first and only Grammy in 1997 for writing on Celine Dion’s album “Falling Into You.”

In 2004, a stroke left Steinman temporarily unable to speak, and spent years relearning to use his voice, according to a speech he delivered at Amherst College in 2013. 

Steinman’s exact cause of death has not been revealed.FILED UNDERCELINE DION, JIM STEINMAN, MEAT LOAF, OBITUARIES, SONGWRITERS, 4/20/21
