After reading his autobiography a few years back I developed a bit of a soft spot for old Meat Loaf. Whilst he'd had huge success a series of misfortunes resulted in him losing his home and at one point he ended up playing in bars just to earn a crust. Happily in recent years he was afforded the elder statesman of rock status and was even planning to return to the studio this month to record a new album. He may be better known for his bombastic numbers (and no one could do bombastic like Meat Loaf) but the vid above shows his more subtle side. RIP Meat.
