    Was never a fan of his music but I did appreciate his acting!

    As a kid I saw this cool album cover and thought what awesome metal music is behind this?  I put it on and fast forwarded through the whole album looking for the cool songs but eventually ended up saying "WTF did I just listen to?"

    I was further surprised to realize the whole world loved that album.  Metal didn't rule the world?  Struggles of a 10yo...

    Seemed like a good guy.

    Wow, I hadn’t heard. I think he’s one of the most underrated artists. He got a cheesey image after “I Won’t Do That” but he had some really great songs. I can always listen to Bat Out Of Hell and Paradise.
    Jim Steinman, the brains behind his music, had some other amazing collaborations.
    A lot of people don’t know Steinman wrote Tota Eclipse of the Heart and Meatloaf sang backup.

    Damn, a lot of loss of talent this year already.

    The reference is from Fight Club - great movie, you should check it out! Meatloaf is fantastic in it!

    Bob (who had bitch tits....aka Robert Paulson) was great.

    Yeah, honestly, 99% of my Meat Loaf exposure is from Fight Club and the 'Anything for love" song/music video back in the heyday of MTV.  There was also a song of his played at bars/parties in College that I thought was a complete mess.  Had some sort of baseball game crammed into the middle of it.

    anyone else find this trend of clumps of celebrities all dying at the beginning of the year a bit....weird?

    Ah, I see, thanks!
    I saw that film a long time ago and didn't care for it.  I should try again!

    It is the song that made him big.

    Definitely.  Sad, weird, and a bit unsettling.

    what year was it, Bowie, Prince, and a whole host of others in a very short early year window? 2015?

    There is 8 billion people in the world, in perspective not that many celebrities have died compared to the relative population…
