Meat loaf dies...

[Fujisan]

One of my favourite music  stars Meatloaf has died...

Bat out of hell is my favourite album and favourite song of all time...

I'm in shock  even though he was 74....

Although it isn't confirmed yet it seem he is the latest victim of corona virus....

He joins Jim Steiman who wrote the songs and died in 2021 .

R.I.P Meat.

Quite a personality.  He performed in the original cast of Rocky Horror Picture Show (and in the movie), and also appeared on Broadway in Hair.  He may have sold more records per capita in England than in the US.

Damn and it apparently happened the day I included 2 of his songs as a tribute in the mail of my "gyojing" the makuuchi results in bench sumo game. What a sad coincidence! RIP.

Terrible news and a huge loss.  Couldn't believe it when I heard it yesterday morning, I was driving to work and they were playing "Dead Ringer for Love" on the radio before the news.

Are you really sure about that or is it a joke I'm not catching (missing the capital "L" maybe)?

Bad joke.. In my defense, I was hungry.

He was (eventually) philosophical about people reverently calling him "Mr. Loaf".  But, after all, this was the career he chose.

And called them "loafers"?

I thought he was the German singer Mitt Loch.
