Further down that article: Quote Last month, Mr Trump blasted Greta, telling her to "chill" and work on her "anger management issues" after she won Time Magazine's Person of the Year. He told the 16-year-old to "go to a good old fashioned movie with a friend!". Greta reacted by changing her Twitter bio to: "A teenager working on her anger management problem. Currently chilling and watching a good old fashioned movie with a friend." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Steinman is a List of The Missed @msc, as I picked him as a unique last year. Gut feeling he was iller than normal. Way ahead of my time as per usual.

Perfect Passing 277 Posted April 21, 2021 Bad for Good is my favourite Jim Steinman album, classic rock opera lines: ”you’ll never be as young as you are right now” ”I’m a lover not a dancer - don’t want to be on the floor when I can be in the sack” RIp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better than the subsequent Meat Loaf albums, also in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 1,861 Posted January 21, 2022 Just cross posting in his own thread he's died as it's been posted in 3 or 4 other threads but makes sense to be in this one. Time to add that dead tag! 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,235 Posted January 21, 2022 Some click-bait-like looking metal site knew it: https://metalsludge.tv/bat-out-of-hell-sources-say-meat-loaf-is-in-very-bad-health-with-covid-and-on-his-deathbed/ Could it actually have been COVID? They didn't officially release a cause of death yet, but maybe he was unvaccinated, so they don't want to reveal that. On the other hand, he might have had quite a few co-morbidities.
