Subject: Singer Lynsey de Paul dies aged 64
Written By: Philip Eno on 10/02/14 at 5:07 am
Singer and songwriter Lynsey de Paul has died at the age of 64, following a suspected brain haemorrhage.
De Paul, who represented the UK in the 1977 Eurovision Song Contest with the song Rock Bottom, had five top 20 UK chart hits, including 1972's Sugar Me.
She became the first woman to win an Ivor Novello award for songwriting.
"Although she was small in stature, she was very big in positive personality," said her agent Michael Joyce. "She was always so positive about everything."

Tragic and unexpected - she was groundbreaking in her own way, as up to her breakthrough, not many (if any) British females wrote their own material...
Indeed, when 'Sugar Me' hit the Top 5, she was the only female performer sitting in the British Top Ten! :o
