Michael Lee Aday (born Marvin Lee Aday on September 27, 1947), better known by his stage name Meat Loaf is an American rock musician and actor. He is noted for the Bat Out of Hell album trilogy consisting of Bat Out of Hell, Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell and Bat Out of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose. Bat Out of Hell has sold more than 43 million copies.[1] After more than 30 years, it still sells an estimated 200,000 copies annually, and stayed on the charts for over nine years.[2][3]

Although he enjoyed success with Bat Out of Hell and Bat Out of Hell II: Back into Hell, and earned a Grammy Award for Best Rock Vocal Performance, Solo for a track on the latter album, Meat Loaf experienced some initial difficulty establishing a steady career within his native United States. However, he has retained iconic status and popularity in Europe, especially the UK, where he ranks 23rd for number of weeks overall spent on the charts. He ranked 96th on VH1’s ‘100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock’.

Meat Loaf has also appeared in over 50 movies or television shows[4] sometimes as himself, or as characters resembling his stage persona. His most notable roles include Eddie and Dr. Scott in the American premiere of The Rocky Horror Show, Eddie in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Robert “Bob” Paulson in Fight Club, Dennis the Spice Bus Driver in Spice World, and Jack Black’s father in Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny (a character who, ironically, hates rock music and believes it to be evil).

In italia quest’uomo non è molto conosciuto purtroppo ma invito tutti ad ascoltarlo, purchè vi piaccia il rock old style. Ha una straordinaria capacità di utilizzare gli in crescendo, tempi e toni che accompagnano perfettamente dei testi meravigliosi, per metafore ed allegorie. Un voce veramente potente!
[spoiler]Ecco una canzone fantastica e per quanto non si possa dire che sia un bel uomo IMHO ha una carica sessuale elevatissima! Sarà contento Gabrielblack:P
