Kim Jong-il - Dead age 69 (Lyrics)

North Korean leader Kim Jong-il has died at the age of 69, state-run television has announced.

Mr Kim, who has led the communist nation since the death of his father in 1994, died on a train while visiting an area outside the capital, the announcement said.

He suffered a stroke in 2008 and was absent from public view for months.

Pyongyang described his son Kim Jong-un as the "great successor" and urged North Koreans to unite behind him.

"All party members, military men and the public should faithfully follow the leadership of comrade Kim Jong-un and protect and further strengthen the unified front of the party, military and the public," North Korea's state-run news agency, KCNA, said.

Kim Jong-un, who is thought to be in his late 20s, was named as his father's successor just over a year ago.

A funeral for Kim Jong-il will be held in the capital Pyongyang on 28 December and Kim Jong-un will head the funeral committee, KCNA reports. A period of national mourning has been declared from 17 to 29 December.

Heart attack

The announcement of his death came in an emotional statement read out on national television.

The announcer, wearing black, wept as she said he had died of physical and mental over-work. A later report from KCNA said Mr Kim had had a heart attack.

Photos from Pyongyang showed people crying in the street as news of the death became known.

A newsreader, wearing black, made the emotional announcement on state-run television
China - North Korea's closest ally and biggest trading partner - said it was "distressed" to hear the news of his death.

"We express our grief about this and extend our condolences to the people of North Korea," Foreign Ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu was quoted by Xinhua news agency as saying.

Amid concern that the news could lead to instability in the impoverished, nuclear-armed nation with few allies, South Korea's military was put on alert. Its National Security Council is convening an emergency meeting, Yonhap news agency reports.

The Japanese government has also convened a special security meeting.

The White House said it was "closely monitoring" reports of the death. The US remained "committed to stability on the Korean peninsula, and to the freedom and security of our allies", it said in a statement.

South Korea's President Lee Myung-Bak spoke to US President Barack Obama by telephone.

"The two leaders agreed to closely co-operate and monitor the situation together," a South Korean presidential spokesman said.

Music by the late Mildred Bailey (February 27, 1907 -- December 12, 1951) was a popular and influential American jazz singer during the 1930s.This song and lyrics was originally about German dictator Adolf Hitler.From Irving Berlin in 1941 World War II against Hitler.

Satan, Satan thought up a plan,
Dressed as a man
Walking the earth and since he began
The world is hell for you and me.

But what a heaven it will be
When that man is dead and gone.
When that man is dead and gone.
We'll go dancing down the street
Kissing everyone we meet
When that man is dead and gone.
What a day to wake up on.
What a way to greet the dawn.
Hap- hap- happy, yes indeed!
On the morning when we read
That that man is dead and gone.

We've got a date
To celebrate
The day we catch up with that one man spreading hate.
His account is overdrawn.
And his chances are in pawn.
Some fine day the news will flash
Satan with the small moustache
Is asleep beneath the lawn
When that man is dead and gone.

Come on now, we're going to celebrate.
He's the guy that's spreading hate.
His account is overdrawn.
And his chances are in pawn.
Some fine day the news will flash
Satan with the small moustache
Is asleep beneath the lawn.
When that man is dead and gone-
What a day to wake up on!
What a way to greet the dawn!
When a certain man is dead and gone!
