Wow!

Can't we judge a song by how well sung/played/orchestrated it is?

Several songs bum me out but it is always my choice to listen or not, why blame the artist?

I happen to like his work and news of his passing bummed me out more than his song(s).

@luynes 

Is that supposed to be a compliment?

No, I was just acknowledging that at least his most famous song can bum you out depending on your mood. But C'mon! I'm not the only psycho that listens to music for that express purpose, no?

News of his death saddened me more than that song ever did; that's all.

...just read a piece of ’long form poetry’ that kinda speaks to this....*interrupt*....that of the hyphen between when born and died.  What does the hyphen allude to?

A long story for a little rectangle.

We’re all kinda left in this little quandary, of what could be said in short of any and all....

At least, Eric seems to have some fans tonight...;)
