Marianne Faithful has passed

[LVSteve]

Famous for being one of Mick Jagger's girlfriend in the 60s, she also had a very up and down life in music and acting. She had a Top 10 hit in the UK, yet a few years later she was a homeless heroin junkie in London's Soho area. The BBC articles will fill you in, and I've included a link to her famous hit.

RIP Marianne, you were never ever boring.

R.I.P. ...

Thanks for this, LVSteve. Remember her as one of Jagger's girlfriends. She lived awfully fast, didn't she? Hate to read about the passing of one of our icons, possibly because their age is close to mine... It's a weekly occurrence now, isn't it?

She did a nice job in Rolling Stone's Rock and Roll Circus. Looked quite attractive, too.

RIP to the cute little hippy chick.

She was in numerous TV and movie productions, but none that anyone would remember. I do remember seeing her in some movie back in the late 60s-early 70s in which she appeared in a brief topless scene and said a now-common four letter word. Which was shocking back then. It was one of those movies where you wonder why you sat through the full thing, don’t know its title or why I remember it.

A fall from the top. Heroine has no friends. RIP.

So much talent, such a troubled life. RIP

I will remember her through the eyes and ears of my youth.

I have neither the right nor authority to judge her.

So Sad, may she RIP. I have one of her album on CD. I like her music.

She caused two worlds to collide.

Both my dad and mom liked her.
