All the other forums I'm part of have something like this. If there's already a thread like this, then merge away...

And I've rekindled my love for Laura Marling (so much sorrow in that voice):

I've been decorating for the past 2 weeks, so have been digging through old albums.
I'm back in love with Army Of Lovers!! Camp pop and disco.

Robert Vaughn today also. The last of the magnificent seven rides into the sunset

A normal human being normally feels compassion at the passing of another human being unless the person who has died is an obvious ogre.
The celebrity thing does it take to silly heights at times. I was upset at Bowie's death because he was a great artist and a part of my life. I grew up to a soundtrack of Bowie and others.
But the death of Leonard Cohen has had a more profound effect on me because he was, for me, the most talented, humane and funny artist of his generation. A poet of substance not just a songwriter.
During his long final tour, which took a couple of years, I actually saw ten concerts and met him at Manchester Airport where he proved to be as charming personally as his public persona had become. So I was very upset and it has nothing to do with Diana or being a professional mourner. It is becaue I've lost a small (in terms of personal contact) but important figure in my life.
