      Pete Shelley, openly bisexual punk pioneer has died of a heart attack in Estonia this morning.

      I'm re-listening to his hit song "Homosapien".

      Homosuperior in my interior
      But from the skin out I'm homosapien too.

        Appreciate the (albeit sad) news on a punk/new wave pioneer who I really enjoyed in my years of endless possibility.

        That video!  A bit like a super-gay Kraftwerk pose in those close-up stills.

        "I'm a shy boy, you're the coy boy.  And you know we're homosapien too."

        Thanks, Mr. Shelley.

              Pete Shelley was an English singer, songwriter and guitarist. He may have wank, blow and shag somebody, but privately. No he's not a porn star

                  Pete Shelley died of a suspected heart attack.  You wondered, without even doing your own Google search, if this gentleman – a musician -- was a porn actor.  Now, you inform us that he "must" have battled internal demons.

                  If you know absolutely nothing about a topic, sometimes it's best to just stop typing.

                    Especially when I identified him in my first comment.
