I honestly thought he had died years ago.

This honestly strikes me as odd. I understand you may not have liked his music, but he released a new album in 2020 and was actively touring earlier this year. What made you think he had died? Or do you just assume everyone you haven't heard from lately is dead?

shrug He was old and barely on my radar, so I think it's not so much as I thought he was dead as I had never thought about it one way or another and was kinda surprised he wasn't already dead.

I only thought he had the one song from a billion years ago. Shrug. Never listened to anything else.

Same.

Nope. He was alive that whole time and you both squandered it.

Eh, never was much of a fan of his anyway 🤷
