Marianne Faithfull, the iconic figure of the Swinging '60s and celebrated artist, passed away at the age of 78 after battling health issues related to a severe COVID-19 infection. Known for her distinctive alto and evocative songs, Faithfull's career spanned over five decades, during which she reinvented her musical style and embraced collaborations with various artists. Her fierce and unapologetic approach to life and music resonated in works like 'Broken English' and 'Negative Capabilities,' making her an enduring influence in the music world, remembered fondly by her family and fans.
"Faithfull's unflinching songs, adaptations and roller-coaster life illustrated her unapologetic approach, with a distinctive alto voice that only grew more menacing with age."
"Described by Irish playwright Frank McGuinness as 'interesting ... difficult and strange,' Faithfull illustrated her complexity through five decades of stellar musical evolution."
