@whathappenedtomusic: Duncan Sheik, who had a pop smash with “Barely Breathing” in the 1990s but then found his biggest success with the long-running stage musical “Spring Awakening,” has died. He was 56. The death was confirmed by his mother, who revealed he died of organ failure. Sheik had previously been reported to be in critical condition in a Manhattan hospital.

Funny how this song was called Barely Breathing, but it was always a breath of fresh air to hear it. Grew up to this song & will always be apart of my playlist. God rest his beautiful soul 🕊
