I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left.

Yeah, it's very sad - and that song in particular was a bit revolutionary in its day as it marked the introduction of electronic music into the world of dance music.

Still sounds great.

Couldn't imagine her being that age. I think I had one of her albums on my 8 track in the Mk 2 Cortina circa '76

Must admit, I would have aged her older.

The press is amazing this morning - they are showing her the respect she truly deserves as a major influence on thousands of musicians and artists.

I agree Pete.  Its good that they are showing respect instead of finding dirt to dish up.  Generally if they can't find any they'll make it up, so as they haven't done that I congratulate them on this occasion.
