#6  Even as a teenager this man's soulful voice brought tears to my eyes. This is not snarkville time, but remembrance for a truly soul-filled singer.

#5  I doubt Delta or KLM will apply the cost of his business class ticket to that of cargo. He's sinde the 14 day window and all of that.

#3  If you can get Solomon Burke's rendition of TheStones: I got the blues for you, please do so.
It's amazing, almost to tears

#2  Oh man, that'll take at least six figures to get his body back. Mortuary on airlines ain't cheap.
