Pete Burns
www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-37755445

Wonder what part of him gave up the ghost, wasn't much left of his original body that he hadn't replaced. I get a bit vomitous over the adoration thrown around about people like this. He was nowt but a one hit wonder ( Not a particularly good hit either ) and then maintained notoriety by being a dickhead, usually using borrowed money which he will not now pay back.

I have a kink.

Hate to say it, but do we really care?

Everyone dies, some in ways which are self-inflicted without necessarily being suicide and possibly several years before the actual point of death. You could even say that Saddam or Ghaddafi were similar. Their deaths were as inevitable as Pete Burns and from an even longer distance.

Its the ones who survive that amaze me. Anyone from a major rock group of the 60s and 70s what with all the wine woman and drugs....

Was apparently a capable songwriter too.
