Next to ABBA, Roxette was the biggest international hit from Sweden, with about 80 M records sold worldwide. Can't say they were a favorite band but Marie had the voice and stage presence not many in the genre could match. She will be missed. Marie Fredriksson - Sparvöga (1989/2002) - "Sparrow Eye"

July 31, 1967 – January 7, 2020 Elizabeth Wurtzel, ‘Prozac Nation’ Author, Is Dead at 52 Her startling 1994 memoir won praise for opening a dialogue about clinical depression and helped introduce an unsparing style of confessional writing that remains influential. Elizabeth Wurtzel, whose startling 1994 memoir, “Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed in America,” won praise for opening a dialogue about clinical depression and helped introduce an unsparing style of confessional writing that remains influential, died on Tuesday in Manhattan. She was 52. The writer David Samuels, a friend since childhood, said the cause was metastatic breast cancer, which in her case had resulted from the BRCA genetic mutation. Ms. Wurtzel had a double mastectomy in 2015. After her diagnosis, she became an advocate for BRCA testing — something she had not had — and*wrote about her cancer experience*in The New York Times. “I could have had a mastectomy with reconstruction and skipped the part where I got cancer,” she wrote. “I feel like the biggest idiot for not doing so.” Writing about her final illness was a natural choice for Ms. Wurtzel, who had for a quarter-century scrutinized her life in relentless detail, becoming a hero to some, especially to many women of her generation and younger, but also drawing scorn. “Prozac Nation,” her first book, published when she was 27, was unvarnished in its accounts of her student days at Harvard, her drug use, her extensive sex life and more. |

I just saw it listed trending on twitter, that Neil Peart died.
A long while back in my Image Themes section the thread for Cool pic of the day I posted the drum set for Phil Collins, to which another member posted the AMAZING drum set Neil Peart used, and I was blown away. I'm not really a Rush fan but I used to be a drummer in my younger days, (not really good at it though) I loved to play but never had any talent like Neil or Phil did. Neil ranks up there with Buddy Rich and the world is a sadder place with out him. His drum set sits lonely now....
