ReRushed Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 just gonna point out.......cause i don't know if Segue is approaching it like this or not. but if you come into meat Loaf with your "serious goggles" you just lose every time. it's pure camp. all it ever was. if it still annoys fair. then it's just not meant for you. MickYep. This sums up Bat Out of Hell perfectly. You gotta be in on the joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Yeah that's a big reason I am warming to him. Not really the songs but his whole sense of fun. Great on stage. Really nice to see someone so intent on having a good time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why but no. You know I love pomp and musicals, so it's obviously less about genre and more just this artist in particular. You are right though, he could easily be my thing. But I like him as an artist. And I adore his artwork. He has used one of my favourite artists of all time, Michael Whelan, for some of his work. Really love it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefox4000 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) You know i was thinking last night. I know Segue is not a fan but if you can track down the Meat loaf DVD storytellers. it's a great show. and you hear stories behind songs. and Meats humor just shines though. might open him up more to you musically and otherwise. and it was 98 so he's still in fine voice at that time.

bluefox4000 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 New Meat album appears to be coming in september. though that could change. also it appears to be his first since Bat II with songs all written by Steinman. of course their all songs written in years past......but i'll take it, lol Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see it! I love them but I am finally at a point when I can take them a little less seriously and see the almost brutal naffness of it all! Totally love it though. But Meatloaf vs Manowar... I really want to see it now I've put that idea out into the universe haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
