Frank Sinatra
No one was more loved and admired then that of Frank Sinatra. His movies and music have stood the length of time and forever will. No one quite compares to the smooth voice of Sinatra.
After suffering from a long battle with dementia, in 1988 he suffered a heart attack. Alas, he ended up in hospital where he said his final tragic words, “I’m losing it.”
James Brown
Over six decades, James Brown easily cemented his memory and talent as the Godfather of Soul. With hits like, “I Got You (I Feel Good),” it doesn’t get more iconic in the music world for funk than Brown.
Then in 2006, on Christmas Day, Brown passed away from congestive heart failure due to complications of pneumonia. His final words were to his personal manager Charles Bobbit, “I’m going away tonight.”
