Latest Meat update on the Q news page:
Meat Loaf’s Bat Out Of Hell landed the title of Classic Song today at the 2008 Q Awards with Russian Standard Vodka.
The huge worldwide hit – written by his early collaborator Jim Steinman – was recognised by Q magazine for its incredible staying power.
Collecting the prize, Loaf exchanged banter with award presenter Al Murray, asking him to repeat a breakneck, off the cuff introduction prior to taking the stage. But after Murray was unable to remember what he had said, Loaf asked: “Could you say something else?”
“I like your hair,” quipped the comic. “I like your hair too, Loaf responded.
Murray shot back: “We’ve got a future you and me.” After Loaf’s failed attempt to sing some Queen songs at Murray’s suggestion, the comic concluded Shall we go to the pub and do that?”
