"why are most influentual people in music dead?"

Nearly every very famous/influentual person is dead.Why?
Kirk Kolbain the lead singer of Nirvanna is dead and if we didn'd have Nirvanna we probably din't have grunge music.
Freddy Mercury (the lead singer from queen)is dead and queen is like one of the greatest bands in the world.(a least Brian and his perm are still around)
Jimi Hendirx(I cant spell his name)is the best guitar player in the world and he took drugs and died.
Elvis Presly, everyone takes the p**s out of his sometime in their lives (so he's influentual)and while Wan**ng in the toilet died as well.
There are even more people than this and they are all dead good (excuse the pun)so if I want to get in the music buisness do i have to kill myself to be really famous

These people are still influencial. You can still pick up one of their CD's and enjoy it as much as you would have if they were alive.

Fair play, maybe there are very few people still alive that inffluence people in the music industry because... To be influenced they need to have listened to that persons music as they grew up, meaning by the time they were making music of there own there idols were probebly dead.

But the guy is talking about the most influential people in MUSIC.

What about all the things he did out of the ring?

He. Is. A. Boxer. Well, was.

Ok, what about the legend that is Muhumad Ali.

There are still a fair few influencial people alive. To name one that has been talked about alot recently, Micheal Jackson.
