Subject: Mark Almond critically injured
Written By: goodsin on 10/18/04 at 4:45 am
Bad news! Marc Almond, ex-of Soft Cell, has been involved in a serious motorbike crash. He is in a critical condition in a hospital in London, he was passenger on a Suzuki motorcycle which collided with a car at 1500BST in central London. I couldn't get the link, but more details can be obtained from the BBC News website. I know there are many Soft Cell fans out there, I would like to join them in wishing him "GET WELL SOON"! :\'(

Good to hear that the man is stable at least...my best wishes to him...
And I can positively agree - that junction (Cannon Street/New Change) is a helluva dangerous one...

I was checking out The Soft Cell website from Marc Almond and never really knew they remade The Supremes hit "Where Did Our Love Go?" in 1982. :o What were some of their other hits besides "Tainted Love"?

"Tears Run Rings" (1988) was a good single and a good video. Alongside his 1992 remake of "The Days Of Pearly Spencer" it is his finest ever career moment.
