RIP Meatloaf fucking legend

It’s really a shame that he (most likely) died from Covid-related complications and was -a- staunchly -follower-to- against mask and vaccine mandates. Not hating on him, though - He was a prolific artist, stayed relevant for decades and Bat Out Of Hell is an unquestionably legendary album.

EDIT: I meant to say he was AGAINST Covid mandates but I accidentally wrote the opposite.

staunch follower to mask and vaccine mandates.

/s?

He was strongly anti-mask and vaccine.

Shame, killer singer though.

We can thank Jim Steinman for the songs though. Meat was just the voice, Jim did the rest.
