From his heart to your souls, dont ever stop rocking!

1 power ballad, Id Do Anything for Love (But I Wont Do That).

My voice is in incredible shape, he said at the time.

I dont sound like my age at all.

A number of musicians and celebrities have paid tribute to Meat Loaf following his death.

In my experience, always a gentleman, Sarandon said on Saturday.

Condolences to his family.

Boy George also recalled the time when Meat Loaf turned me upside down in a Chinese restaurant.

Read tributes from Cher, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and more below.

I am shocked & saddened by the sudden death of Meat Loaf.

Rest In Peace

Had So Much Fun With Meatloaf When We Did Dead Ringer.

Am Very Sorry For His Family,Friends,& Fans.

Am I imagining It, or Are Amazing Ppl In The Arts Dying every other Day!?

The vaults of heaven will be ringing with rock.

Give my best to Jim.

But I have this one in my office in a frame bc it makes me smile every time.

Its engraved Love and Hugs, Meat it sums him up well.

He was so funny.

And warm to everyone.

To us he will always be Bob.

Those were some wonderful months of laughter & irreverence.

The hardest thing about working w/ Meat was getting through any of these ridiculous moments without cracking up.

Him lying on the table playing dead then belting out Zeppelin.

Love and prayers to all his family and close friends.

He once turned me upside down in a Chinese Restaurant in St Johns Wood.

A good man with a big heart.

Meatloaf Has Passed Away.

He was one of a kind.

Who could you compare him to??

Thats how you define greatness.

My condolences to his entire family.https://t.co/sjGd3UnI9M

So saddened by the loss of my friend, Meatloaf.

He was as exuberant, passionate and flamboyant as his music.

The voice of an Angel and a rock icon.

We had some times, my friend.

My heartfelt condolences to your family and loved ones.#RIPMeatLoafpic.twitter.com/4UP7zm3flv
