You're older than me ffs...

 

 

Eh, 'NTWICM' 1,2 &3 must've taken a battering this year.

 

Ah, remember it was not cool to be like me back in the day. And it was still illegal for me to do the nasty, even in 1984.

 

Had to wait until Uni before the proper outlets became available to me.

Is he the first S/A/W number one star to die then? Having a brain freeze.

No, I think this was Mel of Mel & Kim back in January 1990.

Thanks - I always forget them (because I was slightly younger than Willz at the time) even with the Smith and Wilde pun Christmas song combo.

Not even really a "Music Shock Death", more like "surprised he wasn't dead yet", similar to Prince.

No need for embalming. He will not perish being half plastic.

He looked into the mirror didn't he? His doctors warned him not to.

And he only had to wait another three years to make it into my theme team.

 

You Spin Me Round was the first record I danced to in a club. Got my first snog right after, too.

Don't You Want Me is the first one I danced to as I recall. Snogless I dare say.

Another person I've seen live, but isn't now alive. This list is growing... :(

 

I always rather liked Pete Burns. Camp as knickers but with a butch voice, rather like Frank N Furter.
