Saw this amazing man who toured Ireland 12 times & I never missed a tour. I watched the documentary in which a number of Meat's childhood friends talked about him. He was at a Football match, discussing the game with the coach, Meat stood up to go & stood on the Coach's foot. The poor man yelled out, 'you MEAT LOAF son of a gun!' and from that day on, he was no longer known as ML, which was his usual nickname, not liking Marvin. He was just known as Meat Loaf or Meat.
It's now 2020 and Meat Loaf still ain't mashed potatoes! Although he will not be singing on his 2020 tour I think it will be a great success and interesting to hear the stories he has to share! Caleb Johnson does such an amazing job with the vocals! I don't think anyone who attends will be disappointed!
I always thought it was because Marvin Lee was shortened to M.L. and then somebody said it must stand for Meat Loaf, because he was so "big" - and it stuck with him. Children were mean back then. Thankfully, it did not ruin his career. Perhaps quite the contrary.
“I understand. In death, a member of Project Mayhem has a name. His name is Robert Paulson.” His name was Robert Paulson His name was Robert Paulson His name was Robert Paulson
He was known as ML, not liking Marvin. One day, he stood on the Football Coach's foot by accident & he yelled, 'you Meat Loaf son of a gun!', from that day on he was known as Meat or Meat Loaf. Try find the docu drama, 'Meat Loaf In & Out Of Hell'.
Lol. Exactly. He only explained how he got "Michael" for whatever reason lol. But I assume "Meatloaf" is a play on the word "meat" since he was a chubby kid.

Love Meatloaf (Singer & food I stumbled onto this video actually looking for a meatloaf recipe . Ha! Awesome to see Michael (who’s name I also love but had to name my son Christopher which his father insisted cause he is a Christian & wanted “Christ “ in his name ). Still confused as to how Meat or loaf got his name .. Always was your fan no matter what your name is ! 🥰 1-13-19
On a Larry King interview, he said when he was in 8th grade he stepped on the coaches foot accidentally and the coach said get off my foot you big hunk of meat loaf.
Meat Loaf has told three totally different stories on the question - How did you get your name .? ( Look at the Dan Rather interview ) He's a colorful character, and a good story teller , but he plays fast and loose with the truth .
Well as much as he's been asked the question over the course of his career, I wouldn't blame him for giving different stories. Seems to me he was called Meat for a long time and preferred that to the name Marvin. The point is now, if you're talking about rock singers and you hear the name Meat Loaf, most people know who you're talking about. It probably didn't hurt that when he was starting his career that it was the flower power, hippy, era.
His name is Robert Paulson His name is Robert Paulson His name is Robert Paulson His name is Robert Paulson His name is Robert Paulson His name is Robert Paulson

RIP Meat Loaf 1947-2022
One of the best national anthems ever sung, 1994 All-Star game in Pittsburgh. Made me shed a tear, I say.
Soooo amazing.

What a legend
Oh my goodness, I am not from his generational demographic, but I am a major fan - I love him 💗
He is good! And he has a very big heart 2.

No man can get into heaven without being forgiven by God and trusting in Jesus Christ as their saviour.

His name was Michael Lee Aday. RIP
Marvin originally
He looks and sounds like Senator Jon Tester of Montana.
Before I watched this video, I seriously thought he got the name from his favorite food.
He was known as ML, not liking Marvin. One day, he stood on the Football Coach's foot by accident & he yelled, 'you Meat Loaf son of a gun!', from that day on he was known as Meat or Meat Loaf. Try find the docu drama, 'Meat Loaf In & Out Of Hell'.
As long as you dont use Wheatloaf, all is good for me. ^^ :-) ^^
RIP x
Did I miss where they mentioned how he got the name Meatloaf?

He has had like 5 different reasons he is called Meat Loaf. He likes us to keep guessing. :)
I've heard him give three different explanations for this.

He isn't known as meatloaf, it's Meat Loaf. Two words.

I must be think because after watching this video I still don't understand why he's called meat loaf.
