James Brown (1933 - 2006)

[Chavvy]

I'm absolutely gutted: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6208615.stm :( :(

I thought he was immortal but at least he will live on in the music, and it was real music, that he has left behind.

RIP James Brown

I saw him live as the support act for RHCP in 2004 and he was fantastic, he was a real showman.

Rest in peace James :(

I saw this then went and told the older members of my family, they were all ":(" like me.

The younger ones were all "Who?".

Now I feel sad for two reasons :(.

So I got up christmas day, told my parents they had the computer on too loud, then before even the plesentrys of "Merry Christmas" were exchanged, my dad said "James Brown's dead".

RIP Mr Brown, I shall play your music ludicrously loud as a tribute.

I thought he was immortal but at least he will live on in the music...

I know what you mean,he didn't seem like a person who would just die.

Rest in peace James :(

I saw him support them at Eastlands, absoloute legend, he will be sorely missed.

[Bappel]

A tragic moment indeed. The world has lost its best and greatest entertainer.

[AngryPaul]

Bless him =(

He was THE machine made of sex.

[Timmeh]

:(

R.I.P. to a true legend.

I only got to see him live once (with RHCP) but he was utterly fantastic.

[Thomp]

RIP Jason, you will be missed :(

[i_stalk_badgers]

Tragic.

[gruff]

He should've been the Funky President. (Of the US). Now that would've been interesting.

[Redux]

Worst Christmahannakwanzakah ever.

:(

[Bosnod]

It's a damn shame, the man was, and still is, a legend.
The first I heard of this was as soon as I woke up to my radio alarm, was the first thing I heard this morning, not the most pleasent start to my day.

[Evil Sperm]

joke about him feeling good.

RIP

[Cactusman]

I got up this morning and my brother said to me 'John, James Brown's dead.' And I said 'Yeah, course he is' I never believe anything he ever says because he steals food in the middle of the night, lies (crappily) and pisses in the bedroom, (he's 11) so I didn't believe him, but I went into Jacksons and on the front cover of The Sun, it said 'RIP James Brown' or something along the lines of that. Anyway, I won't bore you with my reaction from there on, but, RIP James Brown, you will be sorely missed.
