I only know of Fairytale of New York, not familiar with his other work

Only got to No. 2 first time round, should be no 1 no doubt

RIP

Gutted, one of my favourite bands. Wish I'd been able to see him live but he has been hanging on for a number of years now

Will be having a Pogues binge this evening

Oh the words that he spoke
Seemed the wisest of philosophies
There's nothing ever gained
By a wet thing called a tear
When the world is too dark
And I need the light inside of me
I'll walk into a bar
And drink fifteen pints of beer

Very sad. I knew when the hospital decided to let him go home, it was to die. He looked so ill in his last photo.

He had a booze filled life which I am certain didn't help his health in later years. I'll never forget a time he rolled up on a TV chat show with a jug of Vodka that looked like water but obviously wasn't.

RIP.
