A lot of well known people seem to be dying lately. I know people die every day, but lately it seems like there have been a higher percentage of those dying that were in the public spotlight.
There must be something in the Cristal.
Seriously, I adore Robert Palmer. What a kick in the stomach it was to get this news this morning -- talk about a rude awakening.
Thanks to Mr. Palmer for his enduring lesson: "It takes every kinda people to make the world go 'round."
I also loved the way he turned "I
Didn't Mean to Turn You On" around, which was written for a teenage girl
I'm listening to a radio tribute of him now. I'd actually forgotten that song, which is SO damned clever.
re comment #1: what is, death?
re comment #6: it was misspelled in the article this morning. All better now.
