I am saddened to hear about the passing of #MeatLoaf. He visited the @933WMMR studios several times through the years, here are some photos of his visit to MMR in July of 2006. We will play a block to celebrate his life through music at 1pm. pic.twitter.com/Az4NMXxaa3

We wanted you, we needed you--and we loved you. Three out of three after all, Meatloaf. You will be missed.

I don’t keep pictures from films around home. But I have this one in my office in a frame bc it makes me smile every time. It’s engraved ‘Love and Hugs, Meat’ it sums him up well. He was so funny. And gentle. And warm to everyone. A sweet soul. RIP Meat Loaf pic.twitter.com/aMrIgXByEc

Pretty much 90 percent of my karaoke songs are this man’s. Nobody did a rock anthem quite like Meat Loaf and his songs were more than just songs. They were stories you could sink your teeth into filled with joy, rage and passion. He was truly a one of a kind. RIP https://t.co/mjtPqp9MPN pic.twitter.com/H7a04WSbSM

One of rock music’s all-time great characters whose seminal iconic album Bat Out Of Hell is one of the biggest-selling records in history.
A wondrously talented, flamboyant, funny, outrageous and rebellious chameleon. Sad news. pic.twitter.com/J0UNQgGahnBoy George
R.I.P Meatloaf. Love and prayers to all his family and close friends. He once turned me upside down in a Chinese Restaurant in St Johns Wood.

… he had the quality of being simultaneously frightening and cuddly, which is rare and rather wonderful …

I am shocked & saddened by the sudden death of Meat Loaf. He was, as you might imagine, a larger than life character with a voice & stage presence to match & is one of those rare people who truly was a one off talent and personality. Rest In Peace

Meat Loaf was a LEGEND. Rest in Paradise by the Dashboard Light, sweet sweaty tuxedo lunatic.

Meatloaf was a fierce Patriot for America. He travelled the world and saw how other countries lived, and understood that only in America would he have had the chances he had to succeed and overcome. He was the epitome of an American dream chaser and a great friend to me.

Meat Loaf was one of the greatest voices in Rock N Roll, and he was certainly one of my closest friends in the business. He was really so much fun, truly fun to be around. He just felt like a best friend to everyone no matter how long it had been since you last saw him.
