Ok. My music switched from Shortbus to songs dealing with the loss of River Phoenix. Nice. I love my music. Songs that I'm loving from this selection include "Halloween" by Grant Lee Buffalo, "River" by Natalie Merchant, "Innocent" by Fuel (River was featured in the music video) & "River" by Ellis Paul. There are more songs here, but those are the 4 that are sticking out.

River & my older sister were born on exactly the same day (August 23, 1970). He starred in the first gay movie I ever sought out: "My Own Private Idaho". And I remember the night he died very clearly; I wrote a poem that referenced it.
