Blimey. Meatloaf has died

[Mydogisagentleman]

Just heard this on the BBC. So young

It’s a thread about Meat Loaf and half the posters have gone off on a tangent discussing whether 74 is old or not rather than talking about Meat Loaf.

And nearly the rest of them are talking as if BOOH is the only thing he did with a remaining few still wondering what That is despite being told several times!

@MrsLargeEmbodied

just watched the program that was on bbc4 last night, thanks for whoever recommended it - a good watch

Will look out for it on iPlayer later. I watched the documentary on bat out of hell album on sky last night

Thanks for the reminder about the Musical. It never seemed to take off before, perhaps now it might get a new lease of life.

I really liked Meat's interview with Dan Rather (US) - it should be available to watch on YouTube - from around 2016.

This isn't unusual though. Meat said he'd been asked that question a million times!

I know but I was on about this thread in particular and it HAS been answered loads if times just on here, yet people kept still asking!

I'm not saying it's not frustrating, but that's a MN thread for you! Imagine being Meat and it's your life...

Fun fact about him: he collected rubber ducks - the ones for the bath.

@tigger1001

Love to hear what it's like after you've been today.

I'm not frustrated. I couldnt care less! It was a lighthearted comment adding on to a previous posters comment about what people were commenting on for half the thread!!

Reading reports he had covid and was unvaccinated

Reading reports he had covid and was unvaccinated

Does that matter?

It matters if it might have been avoided

Reports are unconfirmed. His vaccine status is undisclosed. I don't think it's the time.

@Youngatheart00

No it doesn't. The man has died. Have some respect.

@Youngatheart00

Why? He's dead. It's not going to bring him back.

Feeling totally gutted to hear that this legend has died 😞💔 I grew up listening to him & have raised my children listening to him he will be missed by many worldwide.

Rest In Paradise Meat Loaf 🦇💙

Reading reports he had covid and was unvaccinated

He had a hell of a lot of health problems which he openly spoke about - no reports regarding Meat Loaf having covid have been confirmed it’s all speculation.

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
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now
Oh no, no way.
And I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that
No I won't do that

One of the most romantic songs ever written imo.

Currently blasting out for crying out load at top volume suspect my neighbours now hate me

legend
I liked the fact that he didn't want to be referred to or thought of as a star, a legend or whatever, but just a guy doing his job, just like a plumber.

I suspect a lot of neighbours have been listening second hand to Meat Loaf these last 3 days.

"suspect a lot of neighbours have been listening second hand to Meat Loaf these last 3 days. "

I'm lucky my neighbour is also listening to meat loaf in their own house but saying it's through Alexa and their Alexa isn't loud. Meat loaf needs to be loud!

adele should take a leaf out of his book

Dh has spent the last few days trying to add his songs to my iPod and we have remembered why we hate iTunes.
