Tjack Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) Never to take anything away from the amazing vocals of Meat Loaf but just for a moment let’s appreciate the writer of many of his most memorable songs, Jim Steinman. The entire albums of both Bat out of Hell and B.o.o.H 2. Including Paradise by the Dashboard Light, Anything for Love and the songs he did forthe soundtrack Streets of Fire. It’s like when people mourn Stan Lee but never say anything nice about Jack Kirby. Both incredible talents apart, but when they come together..........wow. Rest In Peace and make Heaven sound even better. Edited January 21, 2022 by Tjack Damn Spellcheck Lord Liaden and assault 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnia Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 And Steinman passed away already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hopcroft Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 Meatloaf had a voice for Broadway and the heart of a rocker. A voice and taken like Meatloaf doesn't come around very often. And the world is always a little poorer when re lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted January 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 How many of us have not heard the album Bat Out of Hell ? You do not tend to associate The Beatles or The Stones with just one album or one song but you do tend to associate Meatloaf with that one album. And could anyone else have given Steinman's songs the impact that Meatloaf did ? He was also in films most notably The Rocky Horror Picture Show but also Fight Club and Wayne's World. There are others but these are the ones that we would know as a group. RIP Certified 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slikmar Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 I still will go back and listen to that album every year and be amazed how good it was. May he finally have found peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea that it could have been avoided doesn't help. I hope his family are okay. No cause of death has been given yet, and he had multiple health problems. So, his anti-vaxxer status may not have anything to do with his demise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
