    I don’t why the most beautiful, talented people think they’re not good enough. Pete had an operatically spectacular voice, and he was so gifted. I understand exactly how his mothers passing affected him. Some pain is just too deep to heal. I’m so glad you mentioned his marriage, his former wife was there for him the whole time. He was a brilliant, complicated man. We are poorer for his loss, l really hope he’s at peace. This was so well done, thank you :)

    You couldn't take your eyes off him he was so unique and beautiful. I bought a record called Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division in Probe Records and as he served me he said "Good choice".

    Pete was beautiful before his plastic surgery, he had a totally beautiful voice and he was amazing..its a shame people back then couldn't accept him for him being himself. His love for his mum and her love for him is adorable, rip to Pete and his mum, i hope you're both finally at peace at long last

    To the people in comments laughing at this, I sincerely hope you never have to experience a really debilitating mental or emotional crisis, and if you do, I hope you find more empathy than you show others. Ffs.

    His mother was mentally ill and that affected Pete, being kept home with her, being awoke from his bed at 2am by his mother and taken downstairs whilst she did her makeup and hair, watching her constantly drunk. He had body dysmorphia and it stemmed from his childhood.

      You look at someone so drop dead gorgeous in every way and wonder why he wanted to change it. People would give their eye teeth to look half as good. I don't understand it. I guess he did what he felt was right for him. He was a great talent, with a wonderful voice. He is missed. Very good video about his life.

    I saw Dead of Alive at the ICA in London in 1980. They were a great underground band with songs like Number 11, I'm Falling, Nowhere to Nowhere. He had a great voice and were great before turning into a pop band. Very talented though and great stage presence. I think he wore black contact lenses! Rretty scary!
