Sad

The VERY posh Sixties pop starlet who said no to drugs... and to Mick Jagger: The extraordinary life of Twinkle, who was banned by the BBC at 16, fought over by the Stones and married the Milk Tray Man - The Daily Mail

• Pop starlet Lynn 'Twinkle' Ripley died this week aged 66 after cancer battle
• She was banned from appearing on BBC following uproar about first single
• Mick Jagger tried to steal her from Rolling Stones bandmate Brian Jones
• She married and had two children with Graham Rogers, the Milk Tray Man

Twinkle's "Golden Lights" was covered by The Smiths on the "Ask" b-side and her single "Terry" was listed #11 in Morrissey's "Singles To Be Cremated With" (more info on wiki).

I absolutely despise the bloke and his "music" that he stole from black artists as we all know. An old man that chases children for sex is so sick and the use of drugs and drink is just fake but he is stuck in his teens and it is just pathetic.

With your comment I have decided to throw an open party for a week when Mick Jagger dies.

throw in Iggy pop about the child sex bit then. he of course wrote a song about it
