A difficult choice for a song, but at the link is the masterpiece 'Desire' from Spirit of Eden, 1988.

Re: Mark Hollis has died aged 64
I bet he could have made a heap of money doing a Talk Talk reunion tour, but wasn't interested, no doubt for his own good reasons.

Me too, Zom Zom. That and Steve McQueen (Prefab Sprout) are the two albums I'd take with me to my fictional desert island.
Sad, sad times that Mark Hollis has passed on. If you'll excuse the pun, he's very much an unsung hero and completely underrated.#
RIP Mark

Great choice of music to remember Mark Hollis by, cricketfield73.
Talk Talk were my favourite 80's band. RIP Mark, a much underrated musical innovator.

Re: Mark Hollis has died aged 64
Just heard the news on the radio - incredibly sad to hear, amazing artist, literally bumped into him in New York this time two years ago, he looked fit and well! Another “young” musician gone!

Re: Mark Hollis has died aged 64
Gutted by this more than many before.
His last 4 albums carried me through some tough times and continue to do so.
Genius and a nice bloke too.
I also loved his way.
The way he did not "play ball" with the "industry".
He changed the industry too - stood his ground as an artist and won - changing future music contracts.
I could write loads on Mark Hollis but I'll stop here. I could add so many links to music but I'll add just one, a b-side that for me showed where he wanted the music to go.
Sad Sad day for me.
RIP.
