staygroovybaby Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 The Heavens are filling up. Life is too short. I had two family members pass in the last two weeks. One was expected and the other was a very freak accident. He lived out in the country and was driving a farm tractor down the road, a 16 year old girl crossed the line and hit him head on. When the accident happened I had just hooked up and was enjoying a new set of speakers I had purchased. I go to my music room now and every time I see the speakers, I am reminded of the accident. You have got to wonder how long will that last. I have said it before and I will say it again, Tell your loved ones how much they mean to you as often as possible. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBC reports he died at his home of heart failure. At 53 and far too young. RIP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 I read earlier that he was in the 250 lb range, not many photos of him lately. Even though I wasn't a huge fan of his music, he definitely had a great voice. His performance at the Freddie Mercury concert was probably the best of that show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max2 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Very sad. The man really didn't get the respect he deserved from much of world even having one of the best voices ever, IMO. His Pop albums from the 80's were during my "high testosterone" periods during High School when Metallica and the other hard rock icons ruled the younger following. You just didn't pick up your pals going to search for beer with Wham cranked up. I had been hoping he would release more material. His album "Older" was my favorite and is still one of the best mixed albums I have ever heard. Its funny how you over look many things in life for so long, then you look around and see that 40 or 50 years have past and how much time you wasted, while truly great things were always right in front of you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RT FAN Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I always thought that video with all of the super models on the runway, Linda Evangalista, Naomi Campbell, etc was one of the greatest videos ever. RIP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
