2. Aw, sh*t!

He was a great member of a great band--NOT "just a singer in a rock 'n' roll band", NOT just ANY rock 'n' roll band!

Rest In Peace, John Lodge. Your music will live and inspire forever.

"Breathe deep, the gathering gloom,
Watchlights fade from every room;
Bedsitter people look back and lament
Another day's useless energy is spent.
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one,
Lonely man cries for love, and has none;
New mother picks up and suckles her son,
Senior citizens wish they were young.

Cold-hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colors from our sight,
Red is gray, and yellow, white
But WE decide which is right
And which is an illusion."
