Terry Hall. I was heartbroken when he died.

Me too. I loved him.

Did you see the email Leonard Cohen wrote to Marrianne just before she died. His death happened a few month later

Dearest Marianne,
I’m just a little behind you, close enough to take your hand. This old body has given up, just as yours has too, and the eviction notice is on its way any day now.
“I’ve never forgotten your love and your beauty. But you know that. I don’t have to say any more. Safe travels old friend. See you down the road. Love and gratitude. Leonard

Such beautiful words, brief, clear and full of love

I still can’t believe Leonard Cohen is gone. That wonderful rich voice. He was in his 80s when I saw him but he was still magnificent.

Michael Jackson and Taylor Hawkins. I’ve adored muchael Jackson all my life he was tge greatest musician to ever exist in my opinion. We lost 2 very talented men when they died. Also Sean lock, that guy was hilarious!

Michael Mosley. It was just so unthinkable. And being missing for a period of time was just heartbreaking for his family. Same goes for Julian Sands.

Yes this was so sad and so unexpected

Im very worried about Lewes Capaldi after hearing his latest song. He’s been struggling with depression so it made me very worried

Brittany Murphy,
Heath Ledger
George Michael, still can't believe he has gone, such a kind and generous man
Michael Moseley, such as sad way to die, he was so relatable and seemed like a non-judgemental, thoroughly lovely man
