Reply:actually all the people above list people that were famous in their own time except maybe heath and he was pretty popular. I mean Elvis was the King in his own time. He made dozens of movies and albums and he wasnt even a good actor. Women would cry at his concerts and faint. John lennon was in the biggest band of his time.
Reply:Eva Cassidy. She died in 1996 when she was 33. It was after Eva's death that her albums became really successful.
