LYNNE NIXON OF THE AQUATONES

[edit]

You mention that the above mentioned died in 2001. What was her age? What did she die from? How old was she when she sang the song "You" in 1958? Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.242.92.164 (talk) 01:16, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to this, she died at the age of 60. That would make her around 17 when "You" came out. I can't find anything about the cause of death. Matt Deres (talk) 04:20, 15 March 2011 (UTC) Okay, according to this she died after a long battle with cancer. Neither site is exactly the New York Times, though.

According to this - apparently uploaded by her daughter - she was born on 22 March 1941 and died of cancer on 9 January 2001, so she would have been 59 at the time of her death and 17 in 1958. Ghmyrtle (talk) 13:12, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
