Sudden Deaths?

I have realized a sad pattern, at least that has been all over the media. Artists suddenly seem to be dying, becoming sick, or getting very old. We just lost the rock singer David Bowie and the guitarist of the band The Eagles, Glen Frey died as well. I was never a major dedicated fan to either, but I do know music from both, and for rock fans internationally they will be greatly missed.
    David Bowie was famous for songs such as "Space Oddity", "Changes", and "Moonage Daydream". You may be unfamiliar with him and his work, but David Bowie was also featured in several movies. He made an appearance in "Zoolander", with Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson as a judge of a fashion show. His most famous movie was called "The Labyrinth." His character was Jareth, the main antagonist of the movie who stole a young boy and separated the girl who was responsible for him in a complex maze.  On January 10, 2016 Bowie died in a battle with cancer.
He, his acting and music, will be very missed.

This is David Bowie.

His character Jareth sits with the orb in his hand.

As for The Eagles loss, Glen Frey, was the guitarist of a great group of musicians. The Eagles are most commonly recognized by their song "Hotel California". The band formed in 1971, right in Los Angeles, California. The sounds coming from his guitar supported the beauty of the band. On January 18,2016 the world lost Grey to pneumonia, arthritis, and other glowingly terrible health conditions.  The sounds of his guitar still haunt the minds and hearts of supporters globally. 

This is Glen Frey.

It is unfortunate that life flies by so very quickly, but both of these musicians will be very missed considering their impacts on the world, through the language of music which goes far beyond the ear, but to the depths of the soul.
