It was the only time in my life that I cried over the death of a celebrity.

He had had some terrible tragedies in his life. He watched his wife die in a motorcycle accident. He had to cut short a tour in the UK because of a housefire that one of his sons died in.

The only good part was that he went out on top. He had a hit with his recent song You Got It.

This was a nice tribute.

her actually sing it live - the hair stood up on my arms. The power, projection and control she possesses, coupled with the beautiful tone and her ability to inject that “cry” into her voice - she’s one if my absolute favorite singers. Another gem from her is “Miss Chatelaine”. There are performers, and then there are singers...
