I was listening to Is This The Life, Whole World Window and Dirty Boy last night thinking how lucky I was to be a Timmy fan. Give 'em hell up there Timmy, as you are now the official leader of the starry skies.

Very sad- have to say I wasn't a massive Cardiacs fan but they influenced a lot of bands that I love and that's probably better.

A very talented bloke capable of writing music that doesn't sound like anything much else. From the description of his illness I'm glad he isn't suffering any longer.
