It's All Coming Back To Me Now
"It's All Coming Back to Me Now" is a power ballad written by Jim Steinman. According to Steinman, the song was inspired by ''Wuthering Heights'', and was an attempt to write "the most passionate, romantic song" he could ever create.

Steinman won a court movement preventing Meat Loaf from recording it. Girl group Pandora's Box (band), Pandora's Box went on to record it, and it was subsequently made famous through a cover by Celine Dion, which upset Meat Loaf because he was going to use it for a planned album with the working title ''Bat Out of Hell III''.
