What a feeling! - Living, Loving, Thinking, Again

This is the absolute worst part of being a publicist. I can't believe I've had to write this, let alone release the news. Please share your thoughts and memories of Irene. I'll be reading each and every one of them and know she'll be smiling from Heaven. She adored her fans. - JM pic.twitter.com/TsC5BwZ3fh

Bethy Squires “‘Fame’ Singer Irene Cara Dead at 63” https://www.vulture.com/2022/11/fame-singer-irene-cara-dead-at-63.html
Rich Calder and Rob Bailey-Millado “Irene Cara dead at 63: ‘Fame’ and ‘Flashdance’ singer was Grammy, Oscar winner” https://nypost.com/2022/11/26/irene-cara-grammy-winning-fame-and-flashdance-singer-dead-at-63/

『フェイム』や『フラッシュダンス』の歌手／女優であるアイリーン・キャラ*1の死。心がざわついたのは彼女が1959年生まれで、私とほぼ同年代（２歳年上）だったためでもあるだろう。それにしても、『フラッシュダンス』の主題歌”What a Feeling”は今でも時折脳内再生されるほど染み着いている*2。
