Mark Linkous

Sparklehorse.. Truly one of the all time greats! His lyrics could be spoken with no music and still blow your mind. The statement left by Marks family was pretty amazing; “We are thankful for his time with us and will hold him forever in our hearts. May his journey be peaceful, happy and free. There’s a heaven and there’s a star for you.”
He died at 47. 
Sparklehorse-Sad And Beautiful World
To me, Sparklehorse always sounded like October. Or at least how October felt in Ohio. Beautiful, but sort of sad, knowing that Summer was over and winter was looming...the last of the bright colors, muted and fuzzy. But still the prettiness lingers. That is what October looks like in Ohio, and what Sparklehorse sounds like.
