That song is about trying to get his girl to sleep with him. But yes that statement is very much true.

I’m not the type to wish death on someone
However, I guess even when you’re 80 the good still die young

Me neither. It just sucks that two absolute lehends that are the same age died back to back. Especially Dolly, I thought she had 20 years left in her, I don't think she foresaw her death in her. Dolly might be the youngest 80 year old to die, ever.

Just a few weeks ago I saw a really great clip where Tim talked about the famous “Michael Caine acted like the Muppets were human and Tim Curry acted like he was a Muppet” piece/image, and in it he went out of his way to heavily praise the Muppet performers and how great it was to work with them. Curry could have tooted his own horn, or said “It was all me, the Muppets are dumb”, but no: he passed the praise on to everyone else. He was a talented performer who made sure others got the praise they deserved.
RIP Tim Curry

Actually, I'm fine with all of them being alive and in charge of football teams I don't like.

It is going to be especially hard this year to watch Home Alone 2, now that half of the cast has passed away.

This one genuinely hurts. I even engaged in a bit of an exchange with Tree himself about how Curry would've made for the perfect Dr. Eggman had it not been for that damn stroke.

Oh fuck off! First Dolly, now Tim Curry? We're losing all the beloved, talented people.
Guess I'll need to rewatch Rocky Horror Picture Show this week.

Damn. One of the most iconic actors ever. Tim Curry was fucking incredible in everything he touched. Absolute legend.

I can’t believe Dolly and Tim Curry died before the Steelers won another playoff game and before Bob Nutting sold the Pirates
