Burt Bacharach

Damn. I knew I was likely to regret picking him in the inverse pool but picked him over Tony Bennett.

Sad news, 

 

I forgot he was on the list actually and thought he had been dropped.

FFS, in the sense of both the news being sad and my deadpooling being shit.

Doesn’t surprise me at all ! He looked horrible in this last appearance last year, I made the right decision picking him

Wow. Didn't expect to see him go this quickly, thought he would have been around for a year or two. R.I.P.

Great songwriter for sure. He's been so active in recent years that I personally wouldn't have probably put him on the list. So for once: Big hit by the committee!

First time that I got one of the "___ death of 2023" polls correct. RIP

His name would be amusing to hear from someone with a heavy Scouse accent.

Completely agree. Didn’t look at death’s door last May, only a bit frail.

He's not coming back-arach. 

 

Total genius, sad news. As others have said, I knew he was frail but I thought he had a bit longer - it wasn't very long ago he was still performing in concert around the world.

Yes, very Charles Aznavourish, who I missed as well.

 

I remember when Bacharach made his DL debut in 2021, about 90% of us criticised the pick, calling him one of the healthiest nonagenarians we know. Who knew he would die a mere two years later?

You're the first deathlister I've seen whose profile is a self-portrait.
