Such sad news. There was a brilliant interview with him on 6Music a couple of years back. He said that he had suffered from depression for most of his life, following an incident when he was 12 that has been well documented. However, in recent years he had got proper help and was able to find joy in life. He then described how that very day he had seen a folding bicycle and the sheer delight he got from the bike and the way he described it was just lovely.
BTW, Guardian ran a feature recently of the top 100 singles in the UK charts and number one was ‘Ghost Town’. Guardian doesn’t get everything right but think they did alright here.
