When I did my last post (just an hour or two ago) it made me think about people we lose - famous people. I have a terrible habit of just getting into people (their style or performances) immediately after the inconsiderate people 'pop-off'. Some indeed cast their own demise like poor Robin Williams and Amy Winehouse.
So here's a bit of a tribute to these three at least ...
Firstly, FREDDIE MERCURY of QUEEN:
This One Show semi-documentary tells us a bit more about Freddie's background etc.:
Then there's the sad loss of Amy Winehouse. Here she is singing
one of my (now) favourite songs of hers "Love is a Losing Game" (not a
true statement necessarily but boy is it painful when it becomes a true
statement as I know only too well). When she was alive, I hardly knew of
her - certainly nothing she ever did attracted my attention - so what
the hell was I doing? She's amazing and now she'll never be around to
do more. Such a waste! Why didn't anyone see it coming and stop her -
console her - poor woman.
I had always loved Robin Williams - in films, on TV but most of all when he was being interviewed, with that razor-sharp wit of his. - Again what a sad waste of life.
See what you think of this (in two parts but I am only showing the first):
All three legends - all three needed consoling and love. Miss them all - and Parky's interviews.
