Meat Loaf first announced that he had begun working with Jim Steinman again on The Jonathan Ross Show in April 2013.
In September 2013, Meat Loaf told BroadwayWorld that he would—with Steinman's approval—like to record duets with Bonnie Tyler and Lorraine Crosby as well.
"[12] "Loving You's a Dirty Job" first appeared on Bonnie Tyler's 1986 album Secret Dreams and Forbidden Fire.
[18] Amazon users who pre-ordered the digital release of Braver Than We Are could download "Souvenirs" and "Train of Love" immediately.
The majority of the album, minus "Skull of Your Country", was accidentally leaked on Apple Music on June 22, 2016, and was subsequently taken down after several hours.
