The British singer-songwriter Colin Vearncombe, better known as Black, has died aged 53 following a car crash. Black was best known for his hit Wonderful Life - a top ten hit throughout Europe. The song has been covered frequently and used in adverts several times - in fact, a cover by Katie Melua currently features in a Premier Inn advert. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-35414315 RIP Colin.
