nme.comJulee Cruise, a singer best known for her work with David Lynch and her time in The B-52s, has died aged 65.Her death was announced on Facebook this morning (June 10) in a post apparently by her husband, the author Edward Grinnan.
It read: “I said goodby to my wife, Julee Cruise, today. She left this realm on her own terms. No regrets. She is at peace.”Cruise famously sang the song ‘Falling’, which featured lyrics by Lynch and music by Angelo Badalamenti.
The instrumental was used as the theme tune for Lynch’s Twin Peaks series in 1990, with the vocal version and two other songs, ‘Into The Night’ and ‘The Nightingale’ appearing on the official soundtrack.One of my favorite scenes of all time amplified so much by Julee Cruise’s beautiful music.
