Description
OK so last night I was on YouTube watching music videos and bumped into an R.I.P. for Steve Lee. Steve Lee was lead singer in one of my favorite bands; Gotthard. I was shocked to find out he passed away October 6, 2010 (ty Andy hehe)! I tell you this year has been horribly busy (not all bad), just so much going on that I missed this, sorry Steve...I will love your voice forever! R.I.P.
Gotthard: Say Goodbye
Partial lyrics:
"Another change of season
I'm on my own again
I's hard to stay alive
In the pouring rain
I don't wanna wash my hands
In childish innocence
Wh's wrong and who is right ?
Are we running out of time?
I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't wanna say goodbye
Many sins ain't been forgiven
So many yet to come
It doesn't feel the same no more
And we'll never learn
Or we close our eyes
Refuse to see
Drawning into luxury
Counting every dime
While seventh heaven disappear..."
Thank you for the look and any comments.

Additional Info:
The front-man for Swiss rock band Gotthard was killed when a tractor-trailer skidded into his parked motorcycle on a rainy Nevada highway northeast of Las Vegas, authorities in the U.S. said Wednesday.
Stefan Alois Lee, 47, and a group of at least eight other motorcyclists had pulled to the side of Interstate 15 to put on rain clothing at about 5:15 p.m. PDT Tuesday, the Nevada Highway Patrol said.
The semitrailer, driven by Edwin Zuk, 27, of Illinois, swerved and the trailer slammed into a parked Harley-Davidson motorcycle that hit Lee.
"It was just a freak accident," Trooper Joseph Fackrell told The Associated Press.
Lee was pronounced dead at the scene, about 63 miles north of Las Vegas and 10 miles south of the Nevada-Arizona border town Mesquite, Fackrell said.
On LAS VEGAS October 6, 2010 (AP)
Lee was the front-man for Gotthard, one of Switzerland's most successful bands, selling millions of albums. It has played alongside American bands including Deep Purple, Whitesnake and Bon Jovi.
Lee was among 21 tourists including Gotthard bassist Marc Lynn and Lee's girlfriend, Brigitte Voss-Balzarini, who arrived in the United States during the weekend, said Jan Bayati of German music management company Bottom Row. No one else was injured in the crash.
"Lee wasn't just one of the best voices in rock, he also had an extraordinary personality," Bayati said.
The Clark County coroner listed Lee's hometown as Porza, Switzerland.

An excellent tribute to one of the finest voices in Rock.. A sad, freakish accident, made worse by the fact he was being sensible and had pulled over to put on wet weather clothing! So sad.. Excellent work and a very fine effect on this render.. (And to those thinking that Rose has posted an Iron Cross, she has not.. It's a Maltese Cross.. They were being used way before they were hi-jack by certain people...) Love it Rosy.. Rest in Peace Steve.. Rob
