in the original video as released to television and in 35mm prints, the male/female "hot summer night" prologue from "you took the words right out of my mouth" was spoken live by jim steinman and karla devito before the song performance. on the "hits out of hell" music video compilation, the prologue was removed and spliced in front of the video for "you took the words right out of my mouth", ostensibly to properly replicate the album "bat out of hell", and the video for "paradise by the dashboard light" goes right into the performance.
