Shane MacGowan, 65, on Thursday.
Lead singer and song writer for The Pogues.

Elvis Costello produced The Pogues' second album in 1985 and bet MacGowan that he couldn't write a Christmas song. Costello didn't specify that the song had to be all fluffy and nice though.

Haunted - by Shane MacGowan and Sinéad O'Connor
https://youtu.be/_q7307IWwr4?si=Dt_biBzItgQCCpH6
O'Connor warned Miley Cyrus of the sexual predators in the industry to which Cyrus replied by mocking O'Connor's mental health.
O'Connor committed suicide in July of this year, a year and a half after her son took his own life.
Remember that the next time a DJ plays a Cyrus song and see if you don't switch station.

R.I.P. Shane, you were a poet who made some unforgettable tunes.
Also R.I.P. to visionary manager Terry Venables who was also a founding signatory at the launch of the Anti Nazi League. Top man in more ways than one.

Yeah at it was when Miley Cyrus did a cover of Nothing compares 2 u, basically Cyrus did a cover of her song and then mocked her depression when all SOC was doing was warning her.
Terry Venables always seemed to be a very cherry chap, not taking life too seriously and up for a laugh.

No need to apologise! I think a lot know it's a Prince song but not many know The Family version though.
