Eleven Years Ago Today

Kirsty MacColl was killed while pushing her son out of the way of a speedboat in an area reserved for divers. The piece of shit grocery store millionaire who owned the speedboat and was most likely at the controls paid a flunky to take the fall, and the flunky then proceeded to get off with a $90 fine.

Fuck the whole bunch of them.

Here's "Fairytale of New York":

One of the music world's biggest tragedies, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm borrowing your phrasing for a Facebook post, by the way.

Stole it, too. Amazing, amazing woman.

Michael, what's your Facebook moniker? It'd be nice to be Facebook friends with anyone on here. Mine's David Murphy, and I have a picture of '80s Robot as my profile pic, along with Brad's prose.

Here's Kirsty lip-syncing "Terry", with Lemmy from Motorhead faking the guitar behind her.

I first heard of her courtesy of Tracy Ullman's cover of "They Don't Know." I also count "Clock Goes Round" and "See That Girl" - heck, every song on her debut - and her own cover of Days as personal favorites.

Nice appreciation of Kirsty MacColl from The Guardian:
