[Northshoreman1]

A lovely man and truly wonderful song,He left us with a musical treasure!

[roaringwaterbay]

why did it crash?

[xRYDEx]

@roaringwaterbay Stupid tail at the end haden't been bolted on properly! :( it was an accident waiting to happen :(. Even if the rescuers had got their earlier, He couldn't have been saved. Unlike 50 others, Kyu sadly died in the actual crash :/ in the end 4 out of 509 survived D:

[roaringwaterbay]

@xRYDEx sounds like a lawsuit against the plane maker.

[puttymanswife]

I remember this song from when I was growing up. I loved it. I remember trying to sing it. I was so sad to hear that he died in such a tragic way. Thanks for posting it.
