Stick around for the playout to the commercial for the song that Paul Shafer and the band did often.

Very sad. I bought that album Letterman held up originally for the song "I Just Shot John Lennon" but came to like that whole album. I must say that I lost track of her and that band but sad news indeed.

I absolutely have no information on her death, but I know that she was molested as a child and had been struggling with it her entire life. This, perhaps, contributed to her battles with anorexia. I think it's possible, absences of any drugs or alcohol or evidence of self-inflicted acts, that her body just gave out after years of eating disorder - even if she had recently "recovered" from her disorder. That's what happened to Karen Carpenter, if I remember. Karen was starting to feel better emotionally, but her body was beaten.

Since she hit it big, the only time she looked too skinny (from just casually scanning through her photos) was around the time Salvation and her third album To the Faithfully Departed came out. All other times, she looked good. She certainly looked healthy enough in her recent photos. I didn't know about her personal issues. I know in her song Free to Decide, she sings "I'm not so suicidal anymore". It'd be even sadder if we find out she finally did give up. I'm adding to the Cranberrimania you may be hearing about. All I had was a greatest hits album. I've picked up Dreams: The Collection, (a greatest hits album with everything I already have on it , but several more), and Something Else, with unplugged versions of their bigger hits.

Turned out she drank too much and drowned in the tub. No drugs contributed to it. She had only her prescribed amounts in her system.
Her songs keep popping up on my iPod. I'll most likely pick up more of her music as time goes by.
