So far this year, a few old people have died, some drug and alcohol addicts have died too.
I'm not sure why people are saying this year is worse than others. I guess for music innovators, with Bowie (new-age), Prince (pop) and Lemmy (metal), you have 3 pioneering musicians in one go.
But due to power of social media & 24-7 news, the pool of "celebrities" is expanding exponentially, thus every year is going to be a "bad year" from here on in.

Any time they want to take the entire cast of "Jersey Shore" or "Real Housewives of Wherever" then go for it

@MajorRage not to mention the fact we have grown up with many of these people in our 'lives' menaing they have grown older too, there is a large generation of stars that are in that age bracket where they could leave us in the next few years.

@Bones semantics ... he always seems to be chucked into these things, so I did as well.
Lemmy was in the conversation with Bowie because they happened within a couple of weeks of each other. It's really not semantics to say he shouldn't be included in a 2016 list.

"Anyone that prefers the music of George Michael to the music of Leonard Cohen please go and run into a fucking gas chamber immediately."That did make me laugh.
But not change my mind.

Debbie Reynolds, Carrie Fisher's mother has passed away now. Very sad.
On another note, Steve Martin tweeted the following about Carrie Fisher:
When I was a young man, Carrie Fisher was the most beautiful creature I had ever seen. She turned out to be witty and bright as well.
And has since deleted the tweet following a backlash from SJWs calling it sexist. Because apparently calling someone beautiful is sexist now. To say I loathe SJWs is an understatement. The better response from Martin would have been to say get fucked, this is my tribute to a friend of mine who has just passed away so you can shove your sexism claims up your fat ugly asses you pack of butch fucking feminists.
People who get offended on behalf of others are about as bad as humanity gets in my eyes
