Hearts stop but not the music. Yesterday on Valentine Day Sunday, in Los Angeles, a great heart stopped.  A leading voice of 70s New Wave Music, Doug Fieger, Detroit native, singer, songwriter,  died young at 57. Doug Fieger led, and was the lead vocalist of the power pop band The Knack.

 He sung and co-wrote 1979 hit "My Sharona",  the group's first single, an international #1 hit which spent six consecutive weeks at #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 in 1979, and was the biggest record of the year, a song that is and will always be a classic.


R.I.P. Doug Fieger.
