The Lyrics
Debbie Reynolds died yesterday of a stroke a day after her daughter Carrie Fisher died of complications from a heart attack days earlier on a flight from London to LA. Sad.
Debbie died too,
Tragedy,
She was 84, Carrie was 60
We are crushed,
Loss of celebrities: not one, but two
Please hear our cries 'cause we loved you...
Both
Debbie died too,

George Michael, Prince, Zsa Zsa, Ali
Just too much,
Mother-Daughter we hate to lose,
Princess Leia and Kathy Selden* fame we knew

I wasn't too shocked to hear about Carrie Fischer's death. I'm about the same age, I never did anything to abuse my body, substance-wise, and yet, just before my 60th birthday, an angiogram revealed a 95% occlusion in the big boy, The Left Anterior Descending Artery and a 85% block in The Left Circumflex. If I had blown off my angiogram appt and taken a flight to London, that would have killed me! ...... But to hear of Debbie Reynolds dying a day later, that's unprecedented in the annals of Hollywood! Now, I'm shocked!!
Yes, two tragedies. It hit me hard because I'm reading a Star Wars series of novels (non-canon) and Leia has taken on a more aggressive role, embracing the Force. Btw, Carrie Fisher is NOT in Rogue One despite the reporting. She is portrayed by a Norwegian actress Ingvild Deila of similar proportions and a new SPFX technique using biometrics was used to duplicate her facial features using footage from Episode IV. This was done for Tarkin too, Peter Cushing dead since 1994! Guy Henry stood in for him and was augmented visually as well.
like a dingbat, I had to go and bring Debbie into this yesterday. and now look what it got me! truly a great loss, and I DO mean a great loss... I'm going to watch "Charlotte's Web" in her honor tonight, Charlotte's death is already pretty hard to handle as is, but now I'll probably be reduced to a blubbering pile of blubber! wish me luck! 445
R.I.P. Debbie & Carrie. at least you've re-united quickly!

This also seems to be a popular song on this site. Not that funny but nice read anyway. It was a strange and sad happening
Larry, I do these for fun and keep track. John A. Barry started with "I Put a Spell on You" by Screamin' Jay Hawkins a long time ago and did blocks of them. I did them too in huge numbers and also Willie Nelson's "On the Road Again." We are numbers men and have thousands of parodies. Others do the Beatles hits, screen hits, etc... to each his own.
Interesting, thanks for the info. Usually I can't think of more than 1 (or possibly 2) ideas for any particular song
