Aw man...

Very sad. He wrote the soundtrack for teen angst, hope and unrealized love back in the 70’s. Nobody has duplicated his sound.

Sad day

Blessed repose and eternal memory

The classic rock band albums are 50 years old many of them. So the artists would be in their 70s. Many abused their bodies with drugs and alcohol. And some are overweight. Touring is not conducive to getting a good night's sleep or exercising.

The average American male lives to 76.1 years from birth. For all the fun Meatloaf had, I’d say he did pretty good. Two out of three ain’t bad.

I got a local classic rock station that I occasionally listen to. What really irritates me is that they haven’t played a Meatloaf song for weeks, possibly months. Suddenly, this morning, he’s the greatest classic rocker ever and they’ll be playing his songs all day long.
It’s no wonder I’ve turned off listening to sources of music other than what I personally own.

Meat Loaf songs were raw emotions set to incredibly rich music. Incomparable is the right word.

As a non drinker myself these rock god dudes should have never aged to 50... I am starting to believe moderate and excessive drinking lead to their long lives relatively speaking...

Why...?? Resveratrol no doubt.

I grew up on Bat Out of Hell, awesome sound production, nothing will ever match that, wow if I could go back to those days (and come back again*LOL*)

I'm not sure how to respond to this. Let me sleep on it and I'll give you my answer in the morning.

That's a rough one.

Wow. Just yesterday I heard "Anything for love" and thought to myself that after all these years I still have no idea what "that" is.

He helped make big guys attractive, RIP.

Wow. Just yesterday I heard "Anything for love" and thought to myself that after all these years I still have no idea what "that" is.

And I would do anything for love,
I'd run right into hell and back
I would do anything for love,
I'll never lie to you and that's a fact
