This song was a jam. I have no idea how I first heard it because it never charted, but I remember playing it on repeat on a first gen iPod.

Too soon. RIP

She was only 54 and she had four children. Oh wow. That is devastating. May she rest in peace.

Omg I just read that. So shocking and sad ??.

For her children's sake, I hope there is an autopsy. Her dad died from heart issues, and she has also apparently had heart issues. That could be very important info for her children.

Very sad.

Her grandmother did too, I hear.

Her grandmother did too, I hear.

Which grandmother? I don't know about all 4 of her grandmothers, but Gladys Presley died at age 46 from a heart attack caused by alcoholism, and drug abuse that led to hepatitis, and liver failure. It seems that the substance abuse issue runs in the family.

She was just at the Golden Globes on Tuesday sitting with her mother, (in relation to the Elvis bio-pic). I can't recall having seen anything about her for years so I actually skipped back on a commercial break to have a second look. I though she was really looking well.

Lisa Marie's daughter Riley Keough is a wonderful actress who I follow on Instagram. Can't imagine what she's going through now - she's still grieving over the loss of her brother just a few years ago. Not sure if she was also at the Golden Globes but she was doing a lot of support for the recent Elvis movie with her mother and grandmother; one gets the idea that they are close.

Also of course thinking of Priscilla. She's lost a husband (OK they were divorced, but obviously he was still very much a part of her life), a grandchild and now her only daughter. It's not supposed to happen like this.

Some of these things just hit you more than others; this one's hitting me

Wow, that is super unexpected.

I'm sorry she's gone at such a young age. She led a strange and difficult life. It wasn't easy, with the circumstances of her birth and family.

Circumstances of her birth? I’m a bit confused. Do you mean because of her dad? Probably.

Yes, the huge fame of her dad, the naïveté and youth of her mom, her dad’s death, her mom’s boyfriends, her mom getting mixed up in Scientology, etc. ….

Man, her twins are still so young - 14 or something. It had been a bitter custody fight with nasty allegations and it sounded like Priscilla was primary caregiver, at least for awhile. The media made it sound like she was not just living with her first husband but he was involved with raising the children. So sad for them.

I never followed Lisa Marie really other than thinking her marriage to Michael Jackson was bizarre.
