    Another thing he wouldn’t do for love: get vaccinated.

    Really sad to see this come by this morning. I wasn't a hardcore fan but appreciate his music and I can honestly say I love this song, probably because they played the video over and over on MTV as a kid....

    The man was a musical genius and also a pretty good actor.
    He had a name both in life and death.

    One of the singers I always heard through the walls of my bedroom as a kid. My brother had Bat Out of Hell spinning nightly. You know, these deaths always come in 3's when you start counting at one...and finish at 3.

    Did he die of COVID? It looks like it as they said he had it recently.

    He said about not getting vaxxed...”If I die, I die!”.

    Unm...you died. Question, would you go back and get vaxxed now?

    TMZ reports he died of COVID and they're reliable. Dude got his Herman Cain award.

    He would do anything for love, but he won't get vaxxed.

    Yes another sad example that this disease is a real thing and to not take it seriously has potentially dangerous consequences.

    Saddly I'm not surprised that this is the cause of death. Meatloaf had gone all in on partisanship and much of the culture war. I loved his music and his acting but didn't agree with his politics. It's depressing that it came to this.
