By the end, I'll feel like this was 2015 2.0.

The only good thing I saw was the awesome new music and while we had some comebacks (looking at you Cassius, LCD Soundsystem, The Last Shadow Puppets etc), and we had some reboots of some shows we loved (unfortunately everyone seems to hate the new Powerpuff Girls) we have been losing legends at the same time.

I am now fearing who could go next, just watch...

Imagine if Donald Trump bit the dust...
I think it'd make up for so much.
ironically say it were to happen this year, would it make 2016 the best year?

The BBC has an interesting article on the number of celebrity deaths. It's said that there's likely to be more over the next coming years.

I think we're only just getting a bit overboard because of the legends we've been losing, but I shall get back to what I do most.

I think the only way you could make this year more muk for old music legends is if Iggy Pop, Tony Ionmi and Paul McCartney simultaneously spontaneously developed a brain aneurysm and kicked the bucket

I mean, in the past 6 months we've lost Bowie, Lemmy and George Martin alone, and considering acts from the 60s and 70s are starting to approach their 70s to 90s I think we're going to have an extinction event comprised entirely of the most influential artists in post-50s music within the next 5 years

There was another year recently that had a string of celebrity deaths. 2011 I think?
I recall there is a meme regarding Arsenal footballer Aaron Ramsey and how the goals he kicks are somehow connected to deaths of celebrities. Some examples of those who kicked the bucket after he scored were Steve Jobs and Whitney Houston, and some even think the recent loss of Paul Walker, Robin Williams, David Bowie and Alan Rickman may have also been connected to this "Ramsey effect" as well.

Has he kicked any goals recently? This is important.

EDIT: I just remembered a few hours before Lemmy died, a post on /mu/ was talking about musicians dying, Someone said Lemmy would be fine. He wasn't. I remember the same thing happening with Bowie, but the thread was archived before his death so it never caught on like the first thread. I think the first thread eventually ended up getting 5000-10000 posts, if not more.

for reference

Isn't he the same age that David Bowie and Alan Rickman were when they died?
Yeah he is actually, that is really creepy when you think about it. When Bowie and Rickman kicked the bucket people were starting to think "69 Club is the new 27 Club".

Oh goodness yes, this year has been pretty crummy for me so far, as well. So many things have went wrong, and while there's been one notably important change to happen to me for the better, I've kinda felt rotten and not even the announcement of a new Pokémon game has excited me. And none of what's been mentioned in this thread is helping.
