This week’s song is sung by the late Aaliyah. Back in the early 2000’s she died mysteriously. Some say she was kidnapped by an exotic sultan. Others assume she was the victim of a rare ailment. It’s a shame, too. This is a good song. I mean, I guess technically it would be a shame that she died even if she wasn’t hot and a good singer and dancer. Or maybe it wouldn’t. I’m no philosopher. But I am awesome at picking songs and talking about mysteries.
If anyone has any information related to the confounding death of this nice girl, please notify the authorities. Or, if you are callous and can’t be bothered, just appreciate how great the song is (listen to the words and ignore the creepy baby part) and watch her be hot. Callous.
Interesting song… I have to admit that even in the ’90s she wasn’t on my radar.
It always amazes me how many mystery deaths there are in the music world.
I don’t think I ever heard of her, but in the 90’s I was pretty much into the punk scene and little else. I agree with Melissa, though, mysterious deaths seem common in the music industry.
I’m 21 so perhaps I was too young to be aware of much in the 90’s but I had never heard of this girl either.
Don’t think this is one I’ve ever heard before.
Actually, she died 11 years ago today. I don’t remember much from the 90’s myself, but you really see just about everyone when they pass through here.
