May they both RIP

Has this thread died? Much like Paul Lynde did in the 80s? (unique laugh, campy and over-the-top, was in movie version of Bye Bye Birdie)

Well I'm a gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler About working all summer just to try and earn a dollar Everytime I call my baby, to try to get a date My boss says, no dice, son, you gotta work late Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do 'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Looks like a tortured artist type...probably a painter or an author? Someone like a Henry Miller or Jackson Pollock?

H.P. Lovecraft?

Ding ding! 2020 and Canadian were pretty big clues.

Yes

No, but this person does share something in common with Alex (besides being male and, you know, dead).

which year appears in both of those?

If you are one to view 2020 as the current decade, then he died in the current decade.

No, but he was in the entertainment industry

Sweet! male, dead, not an athlete

Wolf Blitzer?

You better run, you better do what you can Don't wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man You wanna be tough, better do what you can So beat it, but you wanna be bad Just beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it) No one wants to be defeated Showin' how funky and strong is your fight It doesn't matter who's wrong or right Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it) Just beat it (beat it, uh)

hmmm...sitting at a piano, a bit of a "hang dog" face...Harry Connick Jr.?

Terry Crews?

Money makes the world go around The world go around The world go around Money makes the world go around It makes the world go 'round A mark, a yen, a buck or a pound A buck or a pound A buck or a pound Is all that makes the world go around That clinking, clanking sound Can make the world go 'round

Timon?

Is he a politician?

Thirty years ago, how the words would flow With passion and precision But now his mind is dark and dulled By sickness and indecision And he stares out the kitchen door Where the sun will rise no more Some are born to move the world To live their fantasies But most of us just dream about The things we'd like to be Sadder still to watch it die Than never to have known it For you, the blind who once could see The bell tolls for thee

Yep, it’s Marion Jones Greybeard got it

Nope nope...wrong olympics she is the subject of an episode of a long running series I think you need to say the name, but yep

Yes, she has fond memories of 3 gold medals Was Tonya Harding ever great at her sport??

No it does not Elements of both, actually. definitely a team but most participate individually Got famous for being great at her sport, and more famous for how she got great

No, athletics yes
