Dave 48 847 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 It has been announced that Steve Strange....lead singer with 80's group Visage has passed away aged 55. Not my cup of tea Strange by name and strange by nature. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Robbie 39 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 I must be totally out of touch with the music scene because until this thread I had never heard of him or his group. I hope I didn't miss out. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,468 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 He was famous for a few days in the early 1980s, and then went back into obscurity. A classic example of the Andy Warhol thing about "everybody will be famous for 5 minutes". 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope I didn't miss out. Ha ha Robbie don't fret .....you didn't miss a thing. Like Cliff-Ton said famous for 5 minutes and then gone into obscurity. Not like our music Robbie that will live for ever. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Michael Booth 7,364 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Each generation has 'their' music with older people calling it rubbish. It's how it's always been and how it will always be. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Yeah, spot on as usual. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TBI 2,351 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 I'd only heard of Steve Strange in passing and wouldn't have known his music if I'd heard it, just not my era. But I'm sure he would have been an influence on others, so it's sad to hear of the demise of any musician, especially at such a relatively early age. RIP Steve. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
