I saw her with the B's on this tour in Springfield, Illinois at the State Fair. I had no idea who she was and why she was there instead of Cindy, but she looked hot to 18 year old me. lol And apparently she did to other better fans than me standing nearby who were convulsing in orgasmic fashion yelling "Juleeeee Cruuuuise!" 😂 And that's basically the only reason I remember her name! I actually just looked her up a couple of weeks ago... Rest In peace, Julee.
Julee Cruise, the singer best known for her collaborations with director David Lynch and The B-52s, has died. Her husband, author Edward Grinnan, confirmed to NPR that Cruise died by suicide, and had struggled with "lupus, depression and alcohol and drug addiction" in the past. She was 65.
Her speaking voice is so different from her singing voice. The "David Lynch" singing voice, not the B52s style. I hope she's gone to a better place. I hope we all do..
