Lafaucheuse

Wanted to wait in front of her hotel yesterday as a fan but quickly changed my mind. Anyway, friends told me She looked ajd sounded real good, probably out of the Woods for the next few years

here we go, they seem hopeful he will reach 100. Does someone care to send a picture of my mango for the mosaic ?

don't know if this has been posted yet but I can't find it, so here is a picture of Marita Camacho Quiros back in march of this year. Looks pretty good I'd say ! She does remind me of a younger Maria Branyas Morera

on an un-related note, is she famous on her own right ? always wondered if she was famous enough to be on the deathlist but that could just be my ignorance speaking

I can't see any of them making the list, don't know why but I think the 3 I mentioned have a little more chances…

we don't usually get a lot of male singers on the list, however there is still a lot out there who could well be considered for the official list, three of them comes out of my mind immediately and ring the "too big to miss" bell - Frankie Valli (b. 1934) : 90 this year and still touring I think but… - Paolo Conte (b. 1937) : frail for years, former smoker, I can't see him reaching more than 90 - Smokey Robinson (b. 1940) : maybe not for now but to keep an eye on

doesn't look at death door at all, besides the usual wheelchair and her frail appearance. Could well see 2025

She made half her career in France, most of her french songs were written by Jean Jacques Goldman (french), that makes sense to me. but I agree that their choices for the closing and opening ceremony are somehow disturbing as there are plenty french singers Who Where not even contacted

21st candidate that Jimmy outlives since he was put in hospice care… impressive. Will he get to 25 ?

It was long overdue, he looked awful in the last photos. A bit sad the drought has ended as I would have loved to see a record of no more deaths after january

I didn’t forget this pool (nor the obits to come for Raphael Geminiani and Roland Dumas in the French deathlist and the Last sweepstake) but I’m having a rough time mentally these past few weeks and I just couldn’t find the time to post on here recently. That said, I’ll update the scoresheet and others in the week end ! Sorry for the delay… Please, if you can, check your master list on front page and report any hit that I would have missed, it would be easier that way for me
