Wow. RIP.

Always felt she was oozing with sadness, which only became worst with the years passing by - with her relationship to men or loneliness.

Is there anybody who wasn't in love with her in the early 90s?

(edit: I'm not implying anything regarding the cause of death)

RIP

Shit.

I know her son passed last year cause of suicide so I'm sure the last year for her was absolutely unimaginably sad.

I hope she's in a better place now.

 

[Raging Bull]

RIP. Love the song Drink Before the War.

I hope it is due to cancer or something or not suicide, I know that sounds mean but she had a rough life and earlier this year she seemed to have things going her way

Sad news that comes with very little surprise.

Wishing cancer on somebody to avoid suicide--if someone is suicidal, he or she probably has their reasons and I doubt many would make that trade.

RIP. Love the song Drink Before the War.

Mandinka was my favorite tune from her.

Godspeed to her. She battled with a ton of demons...the last year couldn't have been good for her pysche. Hope she finally finds peace.

she has had a very rough life and it looked like she had turned it around earlier in the year. I just hope it was not suicide. As I have stated before, I suffer from manic depression and I know and understand the darkness.

Unfortunately not a surprise.

I'll always respect her for how she brought attention to the crimes of the Catholic Church, she payed a price for that. Nobody wanted to hear about it at the time.

I don't see anything wrong with hoping that she died of natural causes, peacefully and surrounded by friends who got to say goodbye and don't have to live with questions and/or guilt. That's nicer to think about than her dying alone and depressed.

I'm deeply saddened to hear about this. An incredible artist, and a courageous person.

My favorite performance of hers from a great old show called Sessions at West 54th St.

My thoughts exactly.

That SNL preformance where she tore up a photo of the Pope at the end...took some serious f***ing balls.

Was not a fan of hers musically, but R.I.P.
