I Will Always Remember Avicii Because Of This Song
As ghastly as this sounds, there have not been many deaths in entertainment that have moved me. With that being stated I can honestly type that the death of Avicii has me baffled.
The official cause-of-death has not been disclosed but there was always talk of how he battled with the substance abuse. Avicii reached stardom as a DJ at the height of the EDM (Electronic Dance Music) wave in mainstream music; that culture is all about music festivals and drugs.
It is sad because he was not even 30 years old. I have to say, we have no idea what really goes on with these artists when they reach success so quickly and gain access. Many of them start to self destruct and it's just...
How I want to remember Avicii is through my favorite song of his, "Seek Bromance (Vocal Edit)." The song is listed under Tim Berg which is a shortened version of his real name, Tim Bergling. I remember hearing this song for the first time back home in one of my many nights at Club Aura. Towards the end of the night the club would move into EDM music and I just remember feeling a state of euphoria just by listening to the song.
Rest in peace Avicii...
