Prince.. a true artist in every sense of the world.Gone way too soon.
And mighty poets in their misery dead.
I'm in shock. Whitney was such an amazing artist. When I started my English career, I wanted to be like her. I loved her so much. My prayers go out to her daughter and to all of her family.
The paintings by dead men who were poor most of their lives are the most valuable pieces in my collection. And if an artist wants to really jack up the prices of his creations, may I suggest this: suicide.
When Michael (Jackson) died, it felt like part of my family died. I want [my fans] to know that my music is for them and if, god forbid, anything happened [to me], it would be like a piece of them is gone.
The quality of our lives is diminished every time we lose a great artist. It's a different world without Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Curtis Mayfield, Brian Jones and the rest.
Heath Ledger was supposed to put our album on what would have been a new record label. I still feel a little dead after losing him.
Everything about Hank Williams interests me. His music, his life. His death. His impact.
Sad to hear that George Michael has died.He was an exceptional artist and a strong supporter of LGBT and workers' rights.
