The greatest entertainers in music are dead!

Hi what do you think about the tragic deaths of great musicians.
I think Elvis' death was one we didn't see coming
Freddie's was one we definitely saw coming
Kurt Cobain's was impossible to devoted fans
John Lennon's death a great loss to music
I hope Mark Chapman rots in hell the bastard!

One by one, only the good die young. They're only flying too close to the sun.

I'm sorry but I think most folk saw Elvis' death coming, the most. Folk saw what he looked like in Vegas and it was pretty obvious from not only that, but his famous diet! lol

Peace,
Adam.

Uhhh... No. Billy Joel and Elton John are still alive.

i was kinda surprised Freddie and the gang never met John Lennon.

Greatest entertainers - Kurt Cobain? *snigger*

John Lennon isn't dead! Silly goose!

Kurt Cobain = overated tosser.

*adds Agneepath to Christmas card list* ;-)

Oh for fuck's sake, why does everyone place Kurt Cobain on such a high pedestal? He was just another guy who could barely play guitar, glorified only because of his suicide. Please.

I pretty much feel the same way about Kurt Cobain. I just don't get what my generation saw in the guy.

Peace,
Adam.

Nicely put. But, hey, we still have Mick and Keith of the Stones (I believe both men deserve the rank of "immortality" at this point)!

So is Barry Manilow....

*waits for the bashing to begin*

Eddie Vedder is, miraculously, still alive.

And so, equally miraculously, are two members of the Who.
