David Crosby made heartbreaking comment about heaven on Twitter the day before Stills & Nash co-founder’s tragic death
DAVID Crosby, a rock legend who helped launch multiple influential bands, wrote a heartbreaking post about the afterlife the day before he passed away.
The 81-year-old said heaven was “overrated” in a now heartbreaking tweet as fans flood social media to remember his incredible legacy.
Crosby was responding to a tweet about whether or not tattooed individuals will go to heaven.
A Google search screenshot reads: “People with tattoos will not go to heaven,” and lists other groups who won’t quite make the cut.
“I heard the place is overrated…. cloudy,” Crosby wrote, slamming the claim.
Crosby’s death was confirmed by his wife on Thursday who announced that he suffered from a long illness and passed away surrounded by loved ones.
“Although he is no longer here with us, his humanity and kind soul will continue to guide and inspire us,” read a statement given to Variety.
“His legacy will continue to live on through his legendary music. Peace, love, and harmony to all who knew David and those he touched. We will miss him dearly.”
His death shocked fans who kept up with the guitarist and songwriter on his very active Twitter account.
Eight months ago, Crosby announced that he was no longer going to perform live, citing old age.
“I don’t have the stamina. I don’t have the strength,” he said.
He admitted he was going to die “fairly soon,” but announced that he was continuing to make records.
“And so I’m trying really hard to crank out as much music as I possibly can, as long as it’s really good… I have another one already in the can waiting,” he said.
