Agree regarding some of the lyrics of You know my name
Try to hide your hand
Forget how to feel
(forget how to feel)
Life is gone, with just a spin of the wheel
(Spin of the wheel)
I felt a chill when I heard that bridge in the song yesterday after the sad news.
Similar experience listening to Superunknown track 'Like Suicide':
'With a broken neck lays my broken gift
Just like suicide'

Often from a writer or lyricist the sadness is in plane site, true creativity comes from the core of a person and song, poem or novel reflects that core.
Another tragic loss.

I've read quite a few of his stories in the 70s and 80s. His passing saddens me.
Godspeed The Kentucky Kid.
I cant get Twitter in the office here.

In Cornell's case the family is (understandably under the circumstances) disputing the (intentional) suicide, and suspect Ativan may have have had an effect. Perhaps further information will come out to light later. Considering the fact that the the prescription drug can have some serious and scary side effects (suicidality, worsening depression, etc.), more so with extra-doses, and Cornell told his wife on the phone some 40 minutes or so before he was found that he may have taken some extra Ativan, and he didn't sound normal then, well... Wife called his security guy to go check on him, but the doors were bolted so he had to kick them in and that took extra time (hotel's security told him when he called them that they can't give him access since he wasn't registered to that suite... geez, it's not like it was some random dude trying to get in; they should look into their security protocols). Since Cornell had been clean and and all since a long time, and seemed very active and his life in good order in general, it seems only natural to assume that his suicide might have been accidentally caused by the known possible side effects of too much prescription drug altering his mental state.
Now as for Hutchence, a very different situation. He was in a messy situation in his personal life, no happy family life there. Possible accidental death was considered by the coroner (no suicide note - no planning of death proved), but he said the evidence otherwise was too strong, and it was deemed suicide while suffering from depression and under the influence of drugs and alcohol. If people wish not to believe the professional who investigated and reported on it, that's obviously their choice, but there is no actual evidence or realistic reason to assume the coroner's report wasn't factual.
