YoungWillz 21,058 Posted October 24, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Book 3,557 Posted October 24, 2016 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. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,476 Posted October 24, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,978 Posted October 24, 2016 Not even really a "Music Shock Death", more like "surprised he wasn't dead yet", similar to Prince. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted October 25, 2016 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ra Ra Rasputin 99 Posted October 25, 2016 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
