I'm 22. I first became acquainted with Meat Loaf through The Rocky Horror Show. Then I remember seeing the VH1 movie "Meat Loaf To Hell And Back" and hearing the clips of songs they played as W. Earl Brown lip sang. I thougt they were the most bizarre songs I had ever heard before but I loved having that feeling. After buying "Bat" I immediately became hooked on the works of James Richard Steinman and after getting to know Jimmy pretty well through the years, now I know why I thought the "Bat" songs were so bizarre when I first heard them. "If you don't go over the top how are you supposed to see what's on the other side?" -Jim Steinman. On my list of the top male vocalists of all time Meat would be right up there along with Freddie Mercury, Luciano Pavirotti, Roy Orbison, and of course Elvis Presley. I love Meat!!!!!!!!!!!!!
