Johnny Thunders - Born to lose

As i said earlier as a punk fan from the 1st time round this thread is getting more and more of a shocker

Is Johnny Thunders dead too?

I'm feeling older by the second

 

[Crackle]

Whilst there are a lot of talented people mentioned here a heck of a lot of them destroyed themselves with drink, drugs or whatever other malpractice they could think of. So who's fault was it they died young?

It's yours Pig. Where were you when they died huh? No alibi, I thought as much. Got any tacks?

Ah. Finally youtube has decided to come back to life.

I thought this was "Dead before their time" not "Dead before their time and saintly to boot", personally.

Fair do. I'll make sure next Friday's topic allows you some vindictive options

In the meantime have no regrets courtesy of Edith Piaf:

Kirsty McColl

Wow yes - this thread is making me really sad - she was great and I'd forgotten all about her

Thanks Crankarm - I'll dust off some off her CDs and download them into my ipod tomorrow

You're welcome.

Apart from the assassination of Lennon and Harrison I think hers, Buddy Holly's and Ritchie Valens, plane crash, were terrible accidents. The rest involved health issues Eva Cassidy cancer and the othe half of Mel and Kim a terminal disease or othewise a self induced drug or alcohol overdoses.

 

[mangaman]

Yeah - she was one of my favourite artistes and it seemed such a mundane accident (if that doesn't sound too heartless)

I try to cater for all tastes and anticipate I shall attract displeasure - it is a burden I accept for the overall betterment of the forum. I am selfless.
