Why do notable musicians always die days after doing something big?

Ozzy after his goodbye concert.

Connie Francis after her song goes viral.

Sly Stone after a doc made about him.

Bowie works on Blackstar whilst terminally ill, dies days after its release.

J Dilla works on Donuts whilst terminally ill, dies days after its release.

Warren Zevon works on The Wind whilst terminally ill, dies days after its release.

Leonard Cohen works on You Want It Darker whilst terminally ill, dies days after its release.

I'm sure there's plenty of other examples but these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

What's going on here?

>>127140814 (OP)
he looks so fucking tired and fucking off already
damn whore wife forced him to do the farewell so redditors like OP could say "golly gee why artists do le big one before croaking?? curious and wholesome!"

>>127140814 (OP)
The human spirit is a lot more powerful than you imagine.

He's worth millions, has had a literal team of people around him employed to make his life the way it is for the last 40 years.

I'm sure for the last few years doctors were probably estimating how many years he had to live with like 90% accuracy given the money he has.

>>127140814 (OP)
I’m not sure but that seems to be their usual modus operandi. The Beach Boys also had a Disney documentary not too long ago and the moment I saw that i knew Brian didn’t have much left. Ozzy’s death really caught me off guard though, I was expecting it later this year, not just weeks before his demise.

>>127140814 (OP)
He literally said he might die on stage, and he meant it. He knew he was dying

>>127140839
He said in some book that his last wish would be to do one last show as thanks to his fans and then die, the wife wanted mutual suicide and she's still alive so I doubt it was her decision

>>127140814 (OP)
There are reports that talk about how terminally ill people are more likely to die after a milestone (such as a birthday) than they are before it. Or, if someone terminally ill is waiting to see a relative, they will hold off on dying until that relative sees them. It's interesting stuff.

>>127140946
I know. But it's telling he died just days after his farewell concert, as if it was perfectly timed.

Jews

"ozzy" was not a person but a brand, since a long time ago, a brand that will be milked for as much as possible by his ""handlers"". dont be so naive.

>youre done making money for me? goodbye goy

>>127140814 (OP)
I'm surprised he died at 76. That's not old by today's standards. There are jazz musicians out there in their 80s who are still playing shows.

There's a difference between living, and just existing.

If I knew I was going to die of illness within a year I'd spend my time working on music too.

>>127140839
>>127140946
Word on the street is, Ozzy died by MAiD.

>>127140839
>blaming the wife

>>127140814 (OP)
I have heard that its common for people to die shortly after retirement because they were holding up by willpower alone, but once they felt they were done their bodies give up.
Also it could be the other way around. Maybe he retired when he did precisely because he was feeling like he couldn´t keep going anymore.

>>127141284
I think it's very plausible, esp seeing this was *his* farewell show that he personally insisted on happening.

>>127141660
And he was suffering from Parkinson's and a spinal cord injury IIRC. Dude must have been in a lot of pain.

>>127141679
Nobody dies from Parkinson's though.

>>127141130
The ones who survived had good genes and luck.
Ozzy was well known for being totally unhinged in 70s and 80s.
It's actually surprising that he didn't get killed decades ago.

>>127140814 (OP)
>Artist who are terminally ill will pass away soon.

>>127141804
But don't you think it's strange they always die a mere few days after releasing an album?

>>127141825
>>127140880
it's pretty common for terminally ill elderly people to pass away shortly after Christmas or other big family holidays. Once you have nothing else to look forward to then you essentially give up and your body follows suit.

>>127141875
Correct. It's the same reason why a lot of terminally ill people will die shortly after their birthdays, which I'm pretty sure was the case with Bowie.

Someone said it was assisted suicide in Switzerland because he was losing his mind to parkinsons

>>127141895
>It's the same reason why a lot of terminally ill people will die shortly after their birthdays,
Statistically speaking, the week of your birthday is the week you're most likely to die.

>>127141907
Wouldn't doubt it. There's a reason the family is making the cause of death secret.

>>127141907
Based!

>>127141737
hard to walk across rope bridges through.

>>127141875
So Grandma essentially Padme'd herself to death?

>>127140980
>the wife wanted mutual suicide and she's still alive

She probably can't live without him, that's why.

>>127141907
So far that's just a rumor based on some comments Sharon made back in 2007 (see link below). I've also seen some people claiming the whole family was in Switzerland recently as well, but have yet to see evidence of that.

>>127141937
>There's a reason the family is making the cause of death secret.
I mean he JUST died. The man's body is still warm and people are asking for intimate details about his death. His family asked for privacy while they mourn. I'm sure we'll find out in due time. If you've ever lost a loved one, you'd know that you aren't exactly in the best shape mentally to do anything but process the harsh reality of what's happening at the moment.

>>127141907
MAiD needs to be illegal. It's basically eugenics. The state should have no control over life and death, which is exactly why the death penalty is also deeply problematic.

>>127142027
I'll also add that Kelly Osbourne came out publicly to deny claims that Ozzy was dying. This was over a week before his passing. So who the fuck knows. Time will tell.

>>127142052
That was in response to an AI/deepfake video of Ozzy saying he was dying.

>>127142041
>It's basically eugenics.
Suicide is eugenics? What? Take your meds.

The person set to die takes an active role in their own death. It's their choice. They make the final call, and they take the final physical action which will end their own life. It's called suicide for a reason, not murder. The entire process is outlined here:

Seeing your heroes (can't think of another word) die one by one is a hell of a feel.

>>127142041
>nooooo you have to suffer for months instead

>>127141130
>I'm surprised he died at 76
do you not know a single thing about ozzy? at all? i'm shocked he made it past 50

>>127140814 (OP)
Bowie killed himself, i'm sure ozzie did the same.

>>127142052
If Kelly and Jack didn't know that their father is dying nor Sharon telling them that Ozzy was gonna die by MAiD then the whole family will be pissed at Sharon. That's the worst case scenario and it's very likely. The public will find out sooner than later.

>>127142086
Your heroes had heroes too, and they also had to watch them go. The torch is passed eternally. It may be your turn to be someone elses hero one day. Don't worry. They didn't think they could do it either. You're never alone anon...remember that.

>>127142081
>>127142089
People in Canada are applying for MAiD specifically due to poverty or a non-fatal condition like autism. The fact the government approves these things is proof they want "undesirables" dead and are using MAiD to do it. Eugenics.

>>127142092
Is there proof Bowie went out via assisted suicide too?

What I recall is, he made Blackstar when he was recovering from cancer and was pretty much cancer-free when it was about to be released. I always found it weird how he died out-of-nowhere when he was by all accounts recovering.

>>127142154
>The fact the government approves these things is proof they want "undesirables" dead
No...it's not. By your definition, the government helping people STAY ALIVE through medical care is also a form of eugenics. Your brain is cooked dude.

>>127142092
Bowie didn't die by suicide.

https://theconversation.com/maid-and-marginalized-people-coroners-reports-shed-light-on-assisted-death-in-ontario-241661

Disabled people with non-fatal conditions like autism or physical disabilities are being approved for MAiD. That's eugenics at its core.

>>127142165
I don't remember hearing that he was recovering. In fact, I hadn't heard anything about him having cancer until his death was announced. I've never heard any rumors about him and assisted suicide though, that's a new one.
>>127142215
Being approved for MAiD and being actively encouraged to kill yourself as the only option are two very different things. Also, you do realize these people will find a way to end their lives anyway, right? I think you do. Here's your final (You).

>>127142041
Financial coercion is an issue but you simply do not have enough life experience if you think euthanasia is never an acceptable option. There are things the mind and body are capable of experiencing there isn't anything noble about suffering through.

>>127142259
You fix the poverty. You don't kill the poor.

>>127140814 (OP)
I learned about this while researching death during a family scenario. It's actually very common for people near death to be waiting for the right moment in a manner of speaking. Essentially, they're waiting to tick one last box and once it's ticked, they "let go" figuratively speaking.
Like in elderly people often in hospice, it's not at all uncommon for the patient to see a family member that they have been expecting and waiting a period of time, spend some time with them, and then pass away shortly after the person leaves.
Very sad but also very intriguing as far as death goes.

>>127142279
making something available ≠ encouragement

It's not exactly hard to kill yourself you know. You don't need medical assistance to do it. All MAiD does is ensure that it's done in a safe, quick, and painless way. Jumping in front of a train, downing a bunch of pills + booze, or assembling your own "exit bag" are not difficult tasks. But if you fuck up, you're in for a world of hurt.

>>127142257
>Being approved for MAiD and being actively encouraged to kill yourself as the only option are two very different things
You just proved his point.
>you do realize these people will find a way to end their lives anyway, right? I think you do
Holy retard.

>>127142356
Fixing poverty and changing society so that it's centered around the disabled would be a much better idea than death.

>>127140884
yeah he literally paid a company big bucks to plan and manage his image in passing

>>127140814 (OP)
>What's going on here?
Wow, it’s almost as if God is real and has a plan for your life after all, and lets you live just long enough.

>>127140814 (OP)
You only live here for as much as you need to. For some of us, it's after we finish our greatest work.

>>127142479
The "God" you speak of is human willpower.

>>127140814 (OP)
Pretty sure none of these people knew they were going to die and most of these are coincidence.

>>127140814 (OP)
If you saw the footage of the final concert you'd notice Ozzy looked like a zombie on stage.

>>127140814 (OP)
old people keep going until they give up. he was holding on until the gig. there was nothing else for him to keep going for.

>>127142819
It's not just old people but any terminally ill person.

>>127142154
>>127142215

This is fatal, anon.

>>127142685

And who gave us this ability?

>>127140814 (OP)
Did he kill himself to live?

>What's going on here?
They know they are dying and want to do one last show/album

>>127142940
Are you sure?

>>127142985
Kek I remember that.

>>127142117
Well said, anon.
They are free from pain and illness now.
But still with us.
At least now Ozzy can reunite with his parents and Randy now. God Bless.

>>127142117
And who is the torch getting passed to? No one.

>>127140814 (OP)
You can see the strings holding his arms up. Sharon is up in the rafters puppetting him

>>127142685
No body is actually an atheist anymore, my son.

>>127142901
Ozzy died by assisted suicide.

>>127140814 (OP)
You might be on to something, OP.

>>127141233
This.

>>127140814 (OP)
it's just coincidence there are countless others where this didn't apply

>>127140814 (OP)
Sharon worked Ozzy to death.

>>127143018
Is there a single person in this industry who didn't appreciate Ozzy? Even all of his original band mates have no bad blood with him despite the past.

>>127140814 (OP)
>works on album whilst terminally I’ll, dies days after its release
Yeah no shit working on music all day will drain your already fragile body.

>>127140814 (OP)
and kurt cobain blew his brains all over his cuck shed, days after courtney told him im going to billys, you cant satisfy my hole with your heroin cock

You Want It Darker is Leonard Cohen's worst album though.

>>127140814 (OP)
>People who were terminally ill died
Wow, shocking.

>>127140814 (OP)
There's that thing where if you've been working really hard and then take a break sometimes you immediately fall ill. High levels of cortisol from stress can boost your immune system so when it drops you're vulnerable.

You’re incredibly naive for working on music when you’re fucking dying from illness.

There always has to be some kind of irony when a famous person dies. It's the law.

He probably would've been dead many many many years ago if not for his wife desu, even if she is fucking annoying

>>127141875

A lot of elderly people also die a few weeks after their spouse dies.

>died of lupus

How does somebody die of an illness where 90% of cases require no hospitalization and amount to a painful annoyance at worst?

>>127140814 (OP)
They just happen to be lucky to survive that long.
