Juan Gabriel has passed away!?

No manches, wey... El Divo de Juarez has passed away...
This is messed up, yo! I was singing his famous Querida at a Karaoke event this noon...

Just got home and wrote the Phoenix Wright 6 rant when I received a text notification that he had passed.

I'm like dayum! While he's not SUPER RELEVANT to me... He's more of a passing note... A nostalgic reference of childhood. In the eighties and nineties he was heard pretty much in EVERY LATIN AMERICAN HOUSEHOLD. Women wanted to be with him badly. Men often thought he was totally gay, but were jealous of how he could make women feel weak around him. Point is that it was hard to avoid listening to him. Especially since pretty much 4 out of 5 telenovelas had one of his songs as a main theme. Then you had the ones he composed, but were sung by another artist...

Que descanse en paz, el Divo de Juarez...
