FROM THE PAST

Live or die, when fate decides

Some singers could have had a tragic fate. Yet life has decided differently for them. Or simply, their time had not yet come.

This is well known, for example, Elton John, who said that he tried to end his life in 1975 but then fortunately it did not materialize. But the same thing happened to Johnny Cash while he was under the influence of drugs.

And there are still many examples that could be cited in this regard. None of them, fortunately, with positive results. For those who tried and for those who would have been deprived of much more legendary music.
