He's my age. That's sobering. I used to envy him when he was a kid, as all the girls I knew were crazy about him (and not me ). I admire his music and talent.

It is a sad day for the entertainment industry, all his fans in Japan and Korea and those who bought tickets to his shows in Europe.

C5 related? Not at all.

Did I miss the 'Farrah Fawcett died' thread in C5 General?
