Thanks for the memories.


 As I get older... and older, one of the things that almost hurts, is when I hear about some entertainer from my teenage years dying. It's like part of my youth dies, and I guess it does. It also jolts me when I think, "how long ago was that"?

 Rest in peace Marie Fredriksson, female voice of Roxette.

Never a fan of Rosette....but i hope your aware that posting this video will now postmark and save to Lurkers watch list. This song might get to him...its more upsetting than Crucified.

Maddie, I don't have any CD's of them but I did like the hits they had. I just thought it was sad, she could sing.

never a roxette fan either. but just like when john lennon was murdered, part of my youth died that day.

Anne Marie, I was never a beatles fan but John was a great song writer. I often wonder about the terrific songs that we never got to hear because his career was cut short.

I felt that way when Isaac Asimov died.

Thanks for bringing up that Crucified video, Maddie. I had managed to go a full 45 minutes without listening to it, and now that streak is broken.

Old Lurker, me too buddy, me too. :(

I'm going to have to listen to this Crucified.
