On the one hand,
"Hey, Hey. My, My. Rock and roll will never die."
But consider the other position,
"The heat death of the universe is a suggested ultimate fate of the universe, in which the universe has diminished to a state of no thermodynamic free energy and therefore can no longer sustain motion or life."

"Forever" is a concept that humans throw around quite a bit, but we can't comprehend it. It's a very, very, very long time, multiplied by infinity.

Rock and Roll will never die, rock and rollers die with alarming frequency.

Myth Busted.

Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, and Ron Wood are extreme outliers and should not be included in data set for purposes of proving or denying the proposition.
Keith Richard dies years ago. What is continuing to walk this earth is his drug-animated corpse.

Oh. yeah. Keith Richards.

The Stones were in the middle of recording the album that came to be titled Voodoo Lounge in Late 93/early 94 when Keith collapsed and died after a particularly strenuous guitar riff. A voodoo houngan was flown to the recording studio in great secrecy to appeal to the spirits and apply zombie powder to the corpse. His ministrations were quite successful. Not only did he get a nod in the changing of the album title, which was to be "Airport Lounge" to "Voodoo Lounge," he has been on retainer ever since, and is mentioned only as "our special friend" in subsequent album and tour book notes.

Sounds like somebody's been thinking about the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar.

I played the Original Cast Recording *to death* at a very formative stage of my musical life. I still know all the words to all the songs. What an AWESOME spectacle! That one definitely qualifies as "lives forever".

Who is this broken man, cluttering up my hallway?
