| I dont hate Meat Loaf, I'm not in the business of of hating anyone, least of all people who I don't know. However, I am also not in the business of sugar coating things widely regarded a fact, things such as his new album not selling so well, the mistakes he has made and the hardships he's had to to go through (Which I was talking about when I mentioned failures). If that makes me a hater then so be it, but it was NOT and will never be my intention. I'm a fan of Meat as well as Jim, I love Bad Attitude and Welcome to the Neighborhood, did these have Jim's involvement? No, and they were better for it, as it let Meat progress as an artist outside of Jim's vision's. When i talked about him lowering his expectations this wasn't a dig at him, at it stands Rock simply doesn't sell at the moment, were fresh in a new decade so that may well change, I hope so, and I hope Meat can capitalize on that. > You're not bashing him?
