Absolutely operatic rock. His songs- the Steinman ones at least- far surpass mere pop, or even rock. They tell entire stories in grand style. Bat Out of Hell, Paradise by the Dashboard Light, I Would Do Anything for Love etc.

His final grandiose sone was actually called “Going All the Way Is Just the Start- A Song in Six Movements.”

He and Steinman were an incredible pairing that made amazing art.

Thank you

Courteous lucidity in a sea of the usual empathyless scold here

It’s disgusting how rude and nasty so many here are over anything they can be

Honestly.....at ,east Meat didn’t die from skydiving or mountain climbing.....they’d really have a go at it
