Mortician 2 Posted January 10, 2006 Yes indeed Death Warmed Up - Arfur and Hilda duetted on an 'hilarious' rendidtion of 'You're The One That I Want.' In the 1970's British Television was awash with elements that made your whole being squirm with embarassment... Beating On the Buses, Benny Hill, Love Thy Neighbour and George and Mildred however was the 3 minutes of Arfur and Hilda on Top of The Pops... Dressed in leathers, mumbling on tunelessly out of time with the music, and forgetting the words.... had they been doing Keith Richards it would have been bang on!

Vinegar Tits 605 Posted January 10, 2006 Yes indeed Death Warmed Up - Arfur and Hilda duetted on an 'hilarious' rendidtion of 'You're The One That I Want.' And if you watch German TV on a regular basis you'll also see that Arfur n Hilda weren't the only ones to send up 'You're The One That I Want', as the marvellous Helga Feddersen (gestorben) and Dieter Hallervorden (keine gestorben) did similar with 'Du, Die Wanne Ist Voll'. That other dead pop stars link is pretty good, if a bit unuser friendly, but I'm shocked that someone as prominent as Michel Berger isn't mentioned (did a few foreign pop stars as a test to see how reliable it was). As for Father Abraham, he has a website you know... Born 1935, so not as old as I thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinegar Tits 605 Posted January 11, 2006 Gunther Dietz - Died 8 or 9-?-1997 ( Heavy Metal ) He dove off the stage during a concert, the crowd moved away and he smashed onto the concrete floor. Well, I'm more of a schlager and NDW gal myself but I recall hearing about it at the time so I think it did. Dunno about who the band were, I presume they weren't particularly famous or there'd be more about it online. Nicked from elsewhere... "Gunther punched his fist in the air, shouted 'Catch me!', and jumped off the stage... But we didn't even try to catch him. Oh no. We all just stepped out of the way, and roared with laughter when he hit the concrete. ... "He smashed head first into the concrete floor. He remained conscious for about a minute and kept crying out for his mummy. [This is the bit I like-VT] Somebody pissed over him which I thought was a bit rude. But, if you ask me, he got what he deserved." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I find their claim NOTE: This is EVERY death of a Rock star we've found. This is NOT a "RIGGED" list to produce FALSE numbers, but an HONEST observation. slightly dubious, seeing as how they appear to have omitted the all-important 'farming/gardening' category.
