Iconic singer Meat Loaf has passed at age 74.

Marvin Lee Aday, better known as Meat Loaf, has died at the age of 74, surrounded by his family.

His biggest musical success after "Bat Out of Hell" was "Bat Out of Hell II: Back into Hell," a 1993 reunion with Jim Steinman that sold more than 15 million copies and featured the Grammy-winning single "I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That)."

His name was Robert Paulson

This one hits. A great singer for sure. RIP brother.

read that he passed with his wife next to him.

How ****ing brutal for her.

RIP Meat Loaf.

RIP

Louie Anderson died today too. Legendary comedian

Was in the Rocky Horror picture show....Loved his music

Saw him in concert. He was a big guy. Sweat like a whore in church. Good show though. RIP

If you're not old enough to be 17 (or more) when this came out...you may just not get it...

Meat Loaf proved that talent will take you further than looks.

Project Mayhem will need a new recruit.

Celebs dying by the bushels.

OK, I was just listening to some his stuff. All long songs very well done and theatrical. Super talented guy.
