Yet another sad 2016 loss. I can't say I was a fan, particularly, though he had a few pop songs I liked listening to on the radio. He had a beautiful voice except when he did the breathy thing, which was way too often. What was most fascinating about him was his coming out in such a public way. I admired how he came to own his unconventional--public sex, etc.--sexuality and challenged norms. In any case he was a gay brother who suffered along the way, and I feel sad that he died so young.
