BREAKING: Meat Loaf, the rock superstar loved by millions for his “Bat Out of Hell” album and for such theatrical, dark-hearted anthems as “Paradise by the Dashboard Light” and “Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad,” has died, his family says on Facebook. https://t.co/WWbxgFgfQL
I hadn't heard this song in probably 15 years...and I just listened to it...I was immediately transported back to a 70s rollerskating rink during the couples section.
This song just has the "70's" culture vibe timestamped into it...
RIP Meatloaf...thanks being playing a part in capturing what will probably be remembered as the best decade in America's history.
I still remember him freaking out at Gary Busey over his stolen paints. Hilarious. Acting or not, that alone probably took 5 years off his life. [Reply]

When I was 19, I dated this girl for about a month. She was really cool to me and was a lot of fun and hot, but I was still hung up on my ex at the time. So I decided to break up with her… and in doing so, I decided to break it to her gently by playing this song to her in my car and begging her to understand that I “wanted her and needed her, but there was just no way that I’d ever love her.” I don’t know why or how on earth I thought this would ever go over well… prolly because in the song, Meat Loaf is so chill when he tells the girl, “don’t be sad, because two out of three ain’t bad.” That whole thing doesn’t go over very well in real life and I was pretty naive and stupid for ever thinking it would. This girl got EXTREMELY pissed at me!
I ended up dating that same girl about a year later and that time, the relationship lasted a couple years and she never let me forget that I broke her heart once by breaking up with her while playing this song in the car to her. Haha, it was held over my head the entire relationship. What a stupid thing that was for me to do.
I love this freaking song. I love Meat Loaf. RIP [Reply]

I've always believed that you aren't a grown up until you can listen to this song and truly understand its meaning. [Reply]
