Genfærd

Just sad that old timers like Elton John and Ozzy wants a final tour but fails to complete them. Looks like Ozzy is soon to be paid a visit by the Reaper.

Marvelous. You're a god damn wizard, Paul. Genfærd is the danish word for apparition and my byline is Danish for "fascinated by death" - just so you don't think there's some sort of dick joke in it or something.

Wonder if the virus is going to mess up the Olympics this summer.

I hope not. They just seems so washed up.

I want to make a request: New username: Genfærd New byline: Fascineret af Døden I assume the site accepts æ and ø. If not, then let me know.

Damn, I was so stoked because I'm going to see them and Weezer at a festival this summer. Now? Not so much.

I just don't see him pass just yet. He looked OK last i saw him. But you never know. I just didn't place him too high. I have my list here: 1. Lise Nørgaard (103, Instructor/author) - 2. Niels 'Noller' Olsen (65, Olsen Brothers/Eurovision Winner 2001) - 3. Lone Dybkær (79, Politician) - 4. Ritt Bjerregaard (78, Politician/Former mayor of Copenhagen) - 5. Jesper Sørensen (22, Known from a documentary) - 6. Stig Elling (72, Business Executive) - 7. Bent Fabricius-Bjerre (95, Composer) 8. Poul Schlüter (Former Prime Minister) 9. Claus Borre (75, Sports Journalist) - 10. Klaus Pagh (84, Theater Director) - 11. Niels Hausgaard (74, Musician) - 12. Christian Andersen (75, Football Manager) - 13. Elin Reimer (91, Actress) - 14. Erik Clausen (77, Screenwriter) - 15. Lars Høgh (60, Goalkeeper) - 16. Jørn Hjorting (89, Radio/TV Host) - 17. Jørgen Leth (82, Movie Director) - 18. Johannes Møllehave (83, Priest) - 19. Ulf Pilgaard (79, Actor) - 20. Paul Hüttel (84, Actor) - 21. Mogens Palle (85, Boxing Promoter) 22. Grev Ingolf (79, Royal) - 23. Jytte Abildstrøm (85, Actor) - 24. Ghita Nørby (Actor) - 25. Princess Benedicte (75, Royal)

Yeah, i know. I guess, I'll see where it goes from here. I'll update the thread every once in a while when a Dane dies. And Tom Belsø barely got any recogniztion in Denmark either. Turns out, pretty much no one knew who he was. And I'm fairly certain that Phillip had a Danish title.

One part of the Olsen Brothers, Niels Noller Olsen, has been diagnosed with cancer not too long ago and might not have too long. Got him in the top 3 of my list.

Lansbury, surely.

Late to the party. 2020: Ozzy Osbourne 2021: Pelé 2022: Elton John 2023: Queen Elizabeth II 2024: Bill Murray 2025: Sir Alex Ferguson 2026: Donald Trump 2027: Jim Carrey 2028: Ringo Starr 2029: Hulk Hogan

Bob Shane apparently died. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/27/arts/music/bob-shane-kingston-trio-dies.html

Not trying to be ignorant or anything. But can you name some of those 'well known in the UK' Indians? Because, I cannot name one single Indian athlete or politician I'd imagine being a "breaking news"-death or even have a headline on the frontpage. Not saying that's why they don't include Indians. Which noteable Indians are missing and are due to a visit from the reaper? EDIT: Oh yeah they could be racist bastards on the committee. Who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not only that. But people where I'm from, where basketball is literally the least broadcasted sports from America (NFL, NHL etc.), people are losing their mind. I doubt anyone knew what team he played for, what position and what he accomplished. To be fair, I only know him due to my students using the term "Kobe" when tossing something succesfully. But other than that, nah. I feel just as sorry for the other victims. But the amount of tribute and whoring for likes over his death is hopelessly ridiculous considered it's coming from people that don't give 5 shits about basket. But each to their own, I guess. The hysterical reaction to Michael Jackson was a bit more understandable though it was a different time. But, I'm already tired of this.

Henry Kissinger

Just for the sake of it - my username is spelt wrong in the table. And, yeah @paddyfool, i almost left him out due to that reason, but figured his time was up soonish.

I first saw Terry in The Young Ones where he was a drunken vicar. Such a funny opening for one of the best episodes.

Yep also got the breaking news on my Phone from a danish news center. First hit for the deathlist 2020 and my own.

3 predictions in terms of Wrestling persona's, I think will be gone this year: Ric Flair Howard Finkel Superstar Billy Graham

Looks good. I think he's got more years in him.

I didn't add him on my personal list. He still looks fine, and may survive throughout the year. Next year... I could see him pass on.

Trying to do a bit better than last year. Here's my entries: 1) Prince Phillip 2) Kirk Douglas 3) Vera Lynn 4) Daniel arap Moi 5) Javier Perez de Cuellar 6) Pierre Cardin 7) Leon Spinks 8) Betty White 9) Bob Barker 10) Henry Kissinger 11) Stirling Moss 12) Willie Nelson (Joker) 13) Carl Reiner 14) Terry Jones

Any update on this? Figured he hasn't died, but is he still hospitalized or?

Interesting choice. He does indeed look frail and could pass on this year. BUT, I wouldn't be surprised if he hangs around for a few more years.
