Behind the laughter, he quietly battled depression, and his passing in 2005 shocked the music world. This video looks at the final chapter of Paul Hester’s life, his legacy, and why his story still matters today, #80smusic #gonetoosoon #nostalgia Australian Band Crowded House, #CapCut

I knew Paul via living in Elwood, seeing him in the surf shop I worked in, at his cafe at the beach and otherwise hanging out in our home suburb. Much loved and much missed.

I honestly wish I knew you personally, as we'd have the most interesting conversations. I, too, am a lover of music, movies, and the obscure. Thanks for your posts; they're insightful on the serious aspect of life, as well as fun on the obscure. Take care, my friend!

Thanks Pete. A reminder that no matter what, at our deepest blues, we aren’t alone. No matter what, we mean something to someone. Even when we feel alone.

I used to listen to an afternoon radio show (“Martin/Molloy”) that he was a frequent guest on. He was very funny.
