[QUOTE=nigel-harps1954;1798139]Always seems to be the way. There was a hoax news story about Robin Williams about a week before he died too if I recall right.[/QUOTE
I know it sounds cold, but if those people were able to predict results.....sad that he's dead in any case. Saw him in Frankfurt years ago, was far better than I'd expected.
Anyone who knows a bit about German music will be sad to hear Udo Jurgens passed on. He was a massive hit in German speaking countries as a crooner (I think he won the Eurovision for Austria, or at least sang in it). Bit of a ladies man.
I heard Ant and Dec died.

This one snuck under the radar. A month today since Ian McLagan, keyboardist with The Small Faces, passed away.

Appropriate enough, I suppose, to mark his passing on a Lazy Sunday.
Hello, hello? What's going on? What's all this shouting, we'll have no trouble here!

Missed this one over Christmas, actress Billie Whitelaw

Anita Ekberg died, one of the true Scandi bombshells. http://www.rte.ie/ten/news/2015/0111...-dies-aged-83/
Never knew she was liked with Errol Flynn, fair dues to the man!

20 year old Wolfsburg footballer Junior Malanda was killed in a car accident yesterday. Was touted as a big prospect for the Belgian national team with 10 Bundesliga appearances this season.

I know it looks weird, but at the weekend (Sunday) I listened to a pair of talking heads slamming Dee-Dre and how she doesn't love Ken etc etc. That she has no place left in the soap. And now......
Lots of "articles" have subsequently been disappeared from the internet. Very odd altogether.
King Abdullah of Saudi passed on. He'd been touted as a reformer before he took the throne, lots of superficial US driven changes, but still lots of activity in Chop Chop Square and no rights for other religions, minorities, brands of Islam, women, foreigners etc. No media freedom, no political freedom, slavery still in full flow etc etc.
He kept his head when all about him were losing theirs.
Nasty, but good!
Former British Home Secretary Leon Brittan, aged 75.
Died peacefully at home following a short poisoning.

And not forgetting Steve Strange, singer with British band Visage and one of the founders of the 1980s' New Romantic style. Visage had its best-known hit in 1980 with electronic pop number "Fade To Grey."

I femember both well.
Steve Strange's death saddens me. One of my mates was one of the original Blitz kids. Together we both bemoan the lack of colourful protest culture where music and fashion intertwine and make a strong anti-establishment statement. Such is the (false) victory of the Thatcher / Reagan era narrative all the disaffected today seem to be euthanased into a state of submission. Come on today's kids - find your mojo. Owls Fan and I probably thought at the time the 80s was nothing remarkable, but now I think it was a fascinating era. Not to mention the great Rovers side of the mid-80s!
Will there ever be another colourful club-inspired counter-culture movement like the New Romantics? You may not have liked it, but today's music scene is so bland it annoys me.
