Very sad. :(

He was definitely one of my favourite singers and performers in the last 30 years. :( Definitely will miss him and his incredible voice.

Goddamn it. Way too young and too much left for him to do. Easily one of the top three voices of the grunge movement. :cry:

I think I wore the cassette of "Badmotorfinger" out, and still have my original CD that I replaced it with.

I figured with your personality Thanos, that "Black Hole Sun" might be one on your regular playlist. ;)

Didn't like Black Hole Sun very much. Got too much commercial air play. Was always more into 4th of July and Like Suicide off of Superunknown. :wink:

The black dog of depression most likely finally caught up to him. No one who's never been through it has no right to judge.

Very true. I don't understand it, but I know I'd give my left nut to have half of any one of the many talents he had. And I'd be overjoyed with that.

Which is why I don't understand. :(

That's the horror of mental illness. No matter how good things apparently are on the outside, it means nothing when all you feel like is broken glass on the inside. And that's not wimpy touchy-feely "feel" either like you hear from the genuine snowflake types, not when depression is turning into a uncontrollable panicky dread just from being alive.

Apparently he hanged himself, like Robin Williams did, in the hotel room bathroom. I'm expecting now to hear something along the lines of a really bad health diagnosis that might have made him choose to end it or, more likely, a history of family depression or pattern of suicides.

Exactly. It was, for him, just his time.


I've known a few people who have chosen this same method.

And I know people who've been at the edge but managed to pull back in time.

It sounds truly scary; to be at war with your own peace of mind. When you know everything is ok but a dark corner of your mind is saying otherwise.
