Meatloaf

Of all of the pop/rock stars with one name, Meatloaf is by far the most inexplicable. Think about the names chosen by his competition (note; I will not count rappers. Or members of U2. those are whole other issues):

Sting: Kinda badass. Really, if anything more badass than Sting himself.
Slash: Badass. And Slash needs a badass name.
Madonna: Mother of God. Easy.
Prince: again, royalty.

And then there's: Meatloaf. What is he trying to get across with that name? Sure, he was a big guy. He probably is all about the meatloaf. But really. T-Bone Walker named himself after his favorite cut of meat and still sounds cool. The only other music personality with a meat name is Lamb Chop, a children's hand puppet that sings "The Song the Never Ends." The worst part is that he/she/it has a better meat name than Meatloaf.

To illustrate, I have come up with a list of other cuts or preparations of meat that I think make pretty decent names for a rocker. (If I see any of these on the Billboard top 20, you will hear from my lawyer. but considering that RealityGrip is my lawyer, you should be fine).

Buffalo Tender
Foi Gras
Beef Bullion
Beef Stew
Colorado Lamb
Rock Lobster
Turducken
Fillet of Sole
Black Angus (note: should be a white guy)
Haggis
Coq au Vin
General Tso

See? A little style. It's not that hard to come up with a good meat themed rock star name.
