5318. Meat Loaf - I'd Lie For You (And That's The Truth)
 |
| From: Welcome to the Neighborhood; Year: 1995; Genre: Hard Rock |
It's been quite a sad last couple of days after artist/performer extraordinaire Meat Loaf passed away; less that a year since the passing of his long-time collaborator Jim Steinman; I cannot believe that he was 74, I thought he was younger for some reason. He was one I listened to a fair bit back in my teens; I did not really know about him or heard his music prior to the early 1990s as he really was not on the radio and my parents were not into his music at the time, or so it would seem. I started to really get into his music about the time that my siblings and myself were discovering and buying our own personal music collections. For that decade it seemed Meat Loaf was everywhere and then I kind of lost track of him, but always have had a definite fondness for what I knew of his work, both musically and acting wise.
Anyway, I knew I had to choose one of his songs today, and this is definitely one I remember quite well and love hearing; it shows his trademark style immensely.
