I wouldn't be surprised if we see a lot more of older actors and musicans start to die off ....your right , they aren't getting any younger . Plus with drugs and alcohol , and mid life crisis Attitude , makes a toxic mix...not to mention some people just aren't healthy . And rock stars lived a the party life ,can't make for great healthy golden years !!

Why this 2016 has been so cruel and inexorable taken away many of the most gifted singers and musicians of this specific 1980s generation?
This phenomenon is intriguing and at the same time boost the nostalgia for a time that in great way was defined by its music,
it can be seen in a fatal way, but also it has is romantic side, is like of a generation of creative people in some paranormal way
have agreed to depart together.
Here the song Last Christmas , a hit of the Wham British band in the voice of George Michael, that we sincerely wish rest now in peace.

Your opinions are welcome either to express your feelings or to discuss this that is definitively one of the rare aspects that all of who have lived this 2016 and were born by or before the mid nineteen seventies will not be able to forget in long time.
The Pop Music industry and their millions of fans around the world have walked without rest in the twilight zone in this 2016, until its very ending weeks, we hope this is not going to continue running in the same pace, to cross to the other side of the mirror when we begin 2017.
Thanks,
The Angel of Lightness

Well, I think it is so much strong and judgemental to claim that all the ones that have died in 2016 are being send to a really bad place or their souls have a common destination.
The album includes the controversial "Pull My Strings" which was played only once on March 25, 1980, when Dead Kennedys were invited to perform at theBay Area Music Awards in front of music industry bigwigs to give the event some "new wave credibility". The band spent the day of the show practicing "California Über Alles", the song they were asked to play. In typically subversive, perverse style, the band became the talking point of the ceremony when after about 15 seconds into the song Jello Biafra said, "Hold it! We've gotta prove that we're adults now. We're not a punk rock band, we're a new wave band."
The band, who all wore white shirts with a big, black S painted on the front, pulled black ties from around the backs of their necks to form a dollar sign, then started playing "Pull My Strings", a satirical attack on the ethics of themainstream music industry.
