Bryn and Meat Loaf? Hush your mouf!

Okay now, someone who wants to upset me has sent me this comparison of my Bryn, my lovely Bryn Terfel, with Meat Loaf. Yes…a guy who calls himself Meat. Loaf.

Terfel: Dramatic roles in operas such as the Flying Dutchman have involved the imposing star wearing heavy prosthetic make-up and projecting his mighty trademark voice to audiences around the world. Critic Manuela Hoelterhoff described him as “a guy with the body of Meat Loaf and an exuberant performing style”.

Meat Loaf: Singing dramatic songs such as I Would Do Anything For Love have involved the imposing star donning heavy prosthetic make-up in videos and projecting his mighty trademark voice to audiences around the world. Critics have yet to describe him as “a guy with the body of Bryn Terfel and an exuberant performing style,” but it can only be a matter of time, eh?

Damn you, Welsh media!

They’re nothing alike! Nothing! See for yourself!

There! The difference between them could not be more pronounced.

You DO know that my Bryn is the guy in the second picture, right? Of course you do. You should, anyway. Damn straight.

Hmph. The very idea! Meanwhile this is a very nice interview with Terfel who carries on about how much it means to him to drive his kids to school, these days.
