Shane Macgowan, The Pogues Singer Dies At 65

Shane MacGowan, the singer-songwriter, passed away on Thursday after a recent hospital stay after being diagnosed with encephalitis. His hits include 1987’s Fairytale of New York and A Pair of Brown Eyes. He had been unwell for some time. MacGowan also had well-documented problems with drugs and alcohol. The news about the lead singer of the Anglo-Irish band The Pogues reached through a statement from his wife, Victoria Mary Clarke.

Clarke took to her Instagram to talk about her loss on Thursday. She announced the death of the celebrity on Instagram, saying: “There’s no way to describe the loss that I am feeling and the longing for just one more of his smiles that lit up my world.” The singer had been discharged from Dublin’s St. Vincent’s Hospital on November 22 after receiving treatment there for an infection. 

She posted on social media about the singer’s ailing condition and thanked fans for their love and prayers. MacGowan had grappled with multiple health issues in recent years. He has used a wheelchair since breaking his pelvis in 2015. He was diagnosed with viral encephalitis, a potentially life-threatening condition that causes inflammation of the brain. MacGowan also received a full set of dental implants in 2015. It was after he lost several teeth as a result of his heavy drug and alcohol use.

MacGowan was born in Kent, England in 1957 to Irish parents. He spent his summers in a southern Ireland farmhouse surrounded by traditional Irish music. MacGowan formed a band by the name The Pogues. He formed the band in London in 1982 with Peter “Spider” Stacy, Jem Finer and James Fearnley. They created music blending traditional Irish folk music with punk sounds. Irish President Michael D. Higgins also commended his rich work and said he will be remembered.
