Id be very interested to know how old you are and when you started following Meatloaf.
My betting is the vast majority of you are quite young and have only been fans since the last couple of albums
Regardless of the issues regarding Bat 3 you are trashing someone whos has had a large part in Meatloaf being who and where he is today.
How many of you are hypocrites that play Steinman songs all the time?
I dont have issues with you having your own opinion and trashing his songs. But that's not what's going on here a vast majority are all jumping on the band wagon. Ive seen some of your posts on other websites where you write totally opposite things but on here it just seems that popular culture is to slag him off.
If Meat was to come on here tomorrow and say how great Steinman is a lot of you will be posting the same minutes later. I have just replied on another forum on this sight where someone is digging up quotes form 28 years ago to justify slagging Jim off.
I know that this is a Meat Loaf site and we are here to sing his praises and appreciate he's music for what is. And mark my word over the last 28/29 years there haven't been many more appreciative of his music than me it has been a huge part of my life.
I know there is some ill feelings about bat 3 from both sides
But just remember the humble beginnings from 28/29 years ago when Meat and Jim produced together one of, if not the greatest album of all times and have provided us since with god knows how many more classic songs and hours and hours of enjoyable music.
All i ask is that before you slag him off, just pause and think how important his songwritting has been to you over the years. Post a response because its how you really feel not just to get on the bandwagon or improve you posting percentages,
There's a lot we dont know there's a lot were never know but one thing we all know is to appreciate their music for what it is.
Wenners.

I think you have issues buddy!
You are so hypocritical, in that one minute your saying every negative then singing his praises! You can't have it both ways man and if you took time to do a little thing called research you would also know that probably 99% of us here have a great deal of respect for Jim Steinman and the thing that you refere to is an interview from the Classic Albums, Bat Out Of Hell, it was not bashing or being horrible to Jim but just an observation that Meat let him describe THEIR STYLE OF MUSIC and instead of saying our he said my, but that's beside the point really because you obviously don't read the full thing or you would have thought more about this post.
