Another great loss to the music community. Love or hate her, she made some classic tracks that you'll sing along to. A Gay icon but had a hand in turning music into the trends we listen to today, an icon. RIP
what a legend RIP! one of the first songs I ever sung at karaoke was sung by her: flashdance (what a feeling!) wooohoo what an apt song for this site!

Oh dear, another piece of my youth gone too soon. She was an icon to a generation and I for one am saddened by her passing. :sad:

Err, that was Irene Cara. damn it! the sentiment was there! lol
Strangely she never courted that and her lyrics were squarely heterosexual but the music was recognised as the pinnacle of what the early hours in a sleazy nightclub should sound like, especially I Feel Love. She alienated the community that had originally brought her fame by saying that AIDS was God's way of punishing men for being gay, although she later said she'd been misquoted/taken out of context/misunderstood (depending on which article you read). This didn't stop public outbursts of her records being burnt in the streets and resulted in her tumble from favour for some time, during which she changed labels multiple times and branched out into different musical avenues (some more successful than others). I also saw on the news this morning that she had recently said her cancer was caused by inhaling particles from the 9/11 explosion. Great music (in no small way thanks to Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte) and a great singer.
