This wonderful singer died 15 years ago today at the young age of 33. What delights were we robbed of with her untimely death?

[Simon]

I have all I could find of her.  Unfortunately, some of the later releases were a bit ropey, containing demo material she may not have released had she been around to oversee her output.  Very sad that her success was largely brought about by her death. 

[GillE]

Had she not died, perhaps we would have had some much-needed new cover versions of Remember You're A Womble and Leaning On A Lamp Post.  Now we'll never know  .

[Clive]

Not really my cup of tea, says he who is currently listening to I was Kaiser Bill's Batman on his IPod.

Oh well it's now It's a sin by the Pet Shop Boys. 

[Simon]

Oh dear!

   Now It's Oversays Roy Orbison.

I was Kaiser Bill's Batman? I'm impressed.  I've got the Wurzels' version on my iPod, Farmer Bill's Cowman  .

[Simon]

Somebody get me out of here! 

[Clive]

I shall seek it out Gill.   

[Rik]

Somebody get me out of here! 

Quick, follow me, I know where there's a safe Mahler 5 playing.

I challenge you not to like the Adagietto.
