    Wow, this is so sad. It probably wasn't easy living in the shadow of her dad, but I think she had a good career nonetheless. Prayers for her family.

    Sad. A beautiful voice, and she did a great deal for charity.

    I hate death. More and more, with my own situation, mortality scares me. We lose the beautiful people of the world when we least expect it.

    I loved her music, and I'm glad her family can listen to her legacy through her timeless music. That's a priceless gift.

    RIP

    For me, it wasn't the quality of the sound or how well it was sung, it was just that song was a beautiful song to begin with and then to have her basically sing it "with" her father who had passed away years earlier was moving.

    Not a huge fan, but she left a stain.

    Just learning about her charity now makes me like her more. Props to people who help others.

    She didn't hold a candle to her father, who had one of the all-time great voices, but she certainly held her own, and it's sad when someone passes without a full complement of years (her great achievements notwithstanding).

    Truly saddened by this but hopefully she's in a better place.

    I always liked "Unforgettable",

    "Miss you like crazy"
    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wLrG-AoVl3w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    and "This will be (an everlasting love)" despite being ruined by e-harmony
    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/lswB6q2t_6c" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    as much as others but this will always be my favourite song of hers.
    Always loved it
