Another singer bites the dust!I

I was just reading about Cranberries singer Delores O'Riordan's untimely death a few days ago. What an amazing voice that gave us all so much pleasure.
The 10th of January was 2 years since my idol David Bowie kicked the bucket. He provided me with so much musical pleasure and was part of my everyday growth and survival.
For those of us who live through our music, the death of an artist is personal. They provided us with life's milestones, picked us up when we were down and the sounds of their songs took us to places like no other.
