With that announcement, and on the heels of the last two posts for Sharon Jones and Davey Jones/Bowie, this concludes the 2016 edition of my annual "dead celebrity tune trilogy".
Although this year, the trilogy has been doubly different -- it has been posted on Memorial Monday instead of on Tune Tuesday because Tune Tuesdays are changing in the new year so Memorial Mondays will be its new permanent home ... and, as "luck" would have it, all three dead celebrities have random Christmas songs with which they are affiliated.
Mind you -- I had absolutely NO idea that this one even existed until I started googling and youtubing, but this sad very Princey song popped up on my radar (it looks like it was once the Bside to "I Would Die 4 U" -- something only those of a certain age even understand any more).
He who is now with the person about whom this song was sung (who apparently died on Christmas of pneumonia [ummm ... Happy Holidays?!]), you will be missed.
DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S NOT INCLUDED ON MORE HOLIDAY COMPILATIONS:
