You are right. It is impossible to objectively compare the emerging hedonistic world of mid twentieth century America that influenced Meat Loaf with the post World War II England that birthed Freddie Mercury; an England that was painfully coming to terms with their own ingrained authoritarianism in the face of the collapse of Fascism.
