Whitney Houston RIP
 

dead at the age of 48.

Stay off the crack, kids.

People die. Besides, I already knew about this from the news. Can we just have a sticky-note RIP thread to cover the impending death of every famous person?

"Damn you Bobby Brown, got Whitney on that stuff!!"

If this is for real, God Bless Her Soul, what a loss.. :(

Loss? How so? What has she done in the last 15 years?

I meant of a person in general and also of course her own personal losses over her lifetime culminating in this..

Jesus man, have folks no respect for the dead, former pop icons or not?

Ha ha ha ha. Well, then, there are "losses" every day, right?

It's not like she was shot in front of the Dakota. She died. No doubt due to the abuse she inflicted on her body.

nope.

Yes, and all tragedies worth a moment of reflection

"there is a whole in a part of the earth, where the blood pours out at the end of the day, when the usual amount of people have died, sit back and watch, the death and decay.. its a dying world.."

but that is of course what converted me from pure nihilism to monastic nihilism ;)

Whitney Houston's death. What a tragedy. I'm broken up.

everybody is, she was such a unique talent.

RIP gmku

FUck you you death worshippers you!

I only have respect for the dead. And the lying unconscious Keep quiet.

Then don't mourn her death. Celebrate it.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Genteel Death again.

for his and her combined eulogy

and when the night falls, the loneliness calls.. I wanna dance with somebody..

Bittersweet memories
that is all I'm taking with me.
So, goodbye. Please, don't cry.
We both know I'm not what you, you need.

I'm just joshing of course. I mean no real disrespect. I just get tired of seeing the RIP thread. I mean, this stuff is old news by the time anybody posts an RIP thread. And okay, she died. What is the point in an RIP thread? Has anybody here ever talked about her before this, on this forum? And now suddenly we admire her and think about her and want to talk about her?

Look, I know where you're coming from, but really, get off this messageboard mentality and try imagining people who are above it.. I am a fan of hers and used to regularly buy her singles. She wrote some great pop songs. Songs people still play and dance to. I am also a perfectly adjusted human being, and one who doesn't wish misfortune on anyone who doesn't come across as a territorial arsehole. You get the drift. Besides, what are you really complaining about? People on an internet forum not posting about the same old records you can't go beyond?

Whitney Houston......more like HIT-me Houston.

EDIT: I agree with Genteel Death.

R.I.P.

Ha ha

You've been gone too long. Jon boy works for tmz now.

Ah... that explains a lot.

In any case, RIP Whitney. So much music, so little time. So sad.

I'm serious. Just wait until the next person dies.

Jon boy will here to bring it to you first.

what a god damn shame, to go from this

to premature corpse.

fucking pillheads!

It won't be Keef. He'll live forever.

Sony - who made a killing off Michael Jackson's back catalog after he died - raised the cost of Huston's greatest hits online after her death was announced.

This just in: Whitney Houston still dead.

like.

does the fact that gmku has so-far made more posts in this thread than anyone else qualify as irony?

yeh probably does, shame he doesn't realize that.

call me back when you sell 100,000,000 records and perhaps we'll devote a few pages on SYG to your memorial too ;)

Perhaps y'all are just to white to get it, but Whitney Houston was a lot more than tabloid fodder for a lot of people, and she meant a lot to a lot of people, and was one of the few sincerely good and honest people in pop music. God Bless Her Soul..

Grandad becomes really nervous when he sees threads about people dying. I wonder why.

though, I must say I don't give a shit.

She was a junky and probably had it coming.
I just hope the hope wont stay as long as when Michael Jackson died. That sucked (for people who absolutely don't give a shit).

seriously? so junkies just have it coming to them when they die?

Diamanda Galás wrote a piece about Whitney Houston. The junkie thing subject is touched a bit. Pelle gets his ass kicked and handed back to him.

I haven't read it yet, but thank you for making my life complete already. You are one of the very best.
