If you couldn't tell by the title, this post is some glorious Meatloaf. This song is far from his best work, but I had a hankering to listen to it recently, so thought I should share it as well. It's Home By Now/No Matter What. You might remember that Boyzone "covered" No Matter What some time ago, and well the Loaf's version is just naturally more awesome. So prepare your ears to have sweet love made to them.
Slightly fun fact at school my name was Meatloaf, though I really hated it, because it was meant as an insult. I really did look like 80's Meatloaf though. Still do.
Not his most flattering photo but I may also have pulled this face at least once.
In an attempt to watch it myself I learnt that it can't be played through embeds, but feel free to click on "Watch on Youtube". Also good news everyone. My dad has bought an all in one wireless printer/scanner. I don't know if this actually means things might change around here, but seeing as I convinced him to get a printer/scanner rather than a printer (it being five pounds cheaper in an offer also helped) I suppose I should use the scanner at some point.
As soon as I read "should be home by now" I got a line from a Bowie song playing in my head..except I can't figure out which song it's from. That's gonna bug me all fucking day now.
@Dirtycowgirl my friend thinks you were thinking of Time, but admits with so many songs it's hard lol. I think I might have ruined two days today because now she'll probably not be able to get it out of her head.
@Miss Teacher I never said I was proud of it, but there are worse looks to have :) I don't really mind that I look like him because I consider him so awesome
@Major.Mack lol if not the heaps of money and his voice sure help. But I know someone who has a huge thing for people who look like 80's Meatloaf. Shame it's my best friends mum.
@Pat Hatt I'll be honest and say I didn't watch the video, but it seems I really should have seeing as people are commenting more on that than the song.
re:comment It isn't about the brand, really. Apple is being a pretty shitty company in my eyes (though their marketing strategy is unparalleled). It's about the OS. Apple's Mac OS X is a must for me. My favourite OS, I run everything on it, and it works like a charm for me.
he looks really scary to me..
ReplyDeletelistening to the song now..
Meatloaf is some good taste in music! :)
ReplyDeletethe background pictures of the video are very disturbing..
ReplyDeleteIt can be watched through embeds (you probably used Blogger's post preview feature, which sucks ass)
ReplyDelete@Mai Yang lol he actually looks very good, I just chose the weirdest, creepiest picture of him I could find. The song itself is good.
ReplyDelete@My day in a sentence It sure is.
@Fang yeah I did, and yeah it does. Good to hear that when it's posted it can be watched through an embed.

@Dirtycowgirl I know someone who knows their Bowie and I'll try to get an answer for you.

ReplyDeleteYou looked like '80s Meat Loaf? I'm sorry.
ReplyDelete@Film Geek Bastard Still do really.
ReplyDeleteI remember Meatloaf! Used to like his songs as a kid.
ReplyDeleteThat guy be ugly.
ReplyDeletelol
ReplyDeleteHe looks like Carlos Villagran.
I don't like meatloaf and to be honest i find him rather disgusting. And yeah, he looks like Carlos Villagran, aka Kiko hahahah
ReplyDelete@Mo I still like him now as an adult lol
ReplyDelete@My 2 Pesos He's a fine piece of man
@I don't see it personally but the two of them have made that face
@Hasidic Plumber He sings better than a raccoon ever could.
I love that you are proud to look like Meatloaf! I really do!
ReplyDeletehe must pick up tons of chicks with that picture on his online dating profile
ReplyDeleteI love this song; had a lil' 8min b'aww sesh.

@Cheshire I'm glad someone liked it :)
Odd as it may be, I first saw Meatloaf in Fight Club, when he looked nothing like he used to.
ReplyDelete@Henry He's good in it though :) I think when I first watched Fight Club I wouldn't have really known it was him unless someone told me.
ReplyDeleteYou obviously heard the wrong raccoons. I've heard raccoons singing La Traviata.
ReplyDeleteNow that, my plumbing friend, is something I would like to hear.
ReplyDeleteHis name is Robert Paulson.
ReplyDelete@MRanthrope We will remember him.
ReplyDeleteWow some of those images in the background truly are trippy.
ReplyDeleteMeh. Not my kind of music XD
ReplyDelete@Pat Hatt I'll be honest and say I didn't watch the video, but it seems I really should have seeing as people are commenting more on that than the song.
ReplyDelete@Jodie-Ann It should be.
thank you! hahaha! just can't stop it =))
ReplyDeleteI like meatloaf. even his acting was decent! shame that he's been reduced to arguing with crazy people on Celebrity Apprentice.

Is it thursday yet? I can't wait till thursday! Heaven can wait, but I can't! (I can quote meatloaf songs!)
ReplyDelete@Astaroth I'll always remember him for the music, and the Fight Club. I can't hear you say that he is on Celebrity Apprentice.
ReplyDelete@Fang Just give in and buy a Mac, so many people support their domination plans that one more isn't going to make a difference.
@Bersercules lol it isn't Thursday yet, I might see if I can move some stuff around but I make no promise I can't keep.
YESSSSSSSSSSSS !!!
ReplyDeleteYou're friend has a better memory then me.
Time - that's the tune, Aladdin Sane.
@Dirtycowgirl Glad we could help lol, but it's a shame you went so long before coming here to see what the answer was :P
ReplyDeleteI know, but sadly I have to sleep sometimes and also go to work :)
ReplyDeleteSleeping is overrated, work is not.
