I just donated to pet shelter cause of him right in this moment.

Ppl are talking what to do about copyrights and who gets them now. He had about 2000 songs released either by his band or other singers. I want the money to go either to his half sister that he loved or pet shelter. I think he would like both.

He looks like a kind friendly person and he really loved his dog. I can tell this by the pics. He was a strong person for ignoring the past and moving on with life. Looks like he enjoyed his life too. Its really sad when someone so young dies. It doesn't make sense.

Last year when Stephen Gately died in Ireland it was really sad. He was the only guy in Boyzone that I liked. Also he was the only member of the band who could sing. He had also created a great career in musicals.

I dont like when life is cut so short like that. But a relative of mine died from cancer recently and she said before she died that people should enjoy every day they have.

This is what I am thinking as well. And this is why I am not like everybody else do - making their career. For some strange reason, I feel like I will die young as well. I used to have my diary years ago. I am thinking of writing it again about how I feel about it.

I am crying today. But it's not cause I am sorry about him. I am sorry about things he could do and about ppl and animals he left behind him. I am also praying about his soul

I just found this out. There's Danish group Michael Learns To Rock, they have famous song The Actor. I am sure you know the song. So I learned that they took Mārtiņš song from Eurovision contest called "The War Is Not Over" and added in their last album in 2008. Cause of this Mārtiņš sang his song The Actor in his concert as well.

Yesterday was a year since Martinjsh died. And just like last year his friends made a memorial concert for him. All 8000 tickets were sold. I went to this concert last year and also went this year. Also bought some souveniers. I have a new Tshirt with him :D The concert was really lovely, emotional, funny, nice and with these emotions I went home. I really loved it :luv There were many famouse singers, his friends who sang his songs for 3-4 hours.

All the proceedings from souvenirs and tickets went to the fond in his name made after his death. The fond works of keeping his memory and name as well as helping disabled children and animal shelters and also new musicians yo start their carrier. He was often helping charities and often helped new talents during his own carrier.

I want to share video that my friend recorded during concert. The song from this concert he wrote that was performed in Eurovision in 2005 and got 3rd or 5th place (don't remember). I love this song :luv




Maybe my friend will come online and will post some pic from arena. I know she took some ;)

yes, he was 32 years old. He was living alone and his... I don;t know... 5-6 animals? He has dog, 2 cats, parrots, fishes etc. He was a big animal lover. Signers in concert was also telling few stories about him. His chinchilla died once and it was winter. He wanted to bury him and it to be beautiful with all the casket. But since it was winter the ground was frozen so he kept his chinchilla in freezer next to his food :lmao

In some way he was crazy but he had sweet heart. He also reminds me of Michael cause of this love to ppl and especially animals.

Emmm... Just remembered I promised to do so... :blush

I didn't take much pics during the concert, I took some during the break, to recall which sectors were the best, remember? ;)
Still, some pics.

And my other videos:
The first song of the concert, new one, recorded by his friends this year.


The most sad song, still can't listen to it without crying... :( Magic has put its translation in the post #19 of this thread.


The last song of the concert. First part is the song that was this concert's theme song ("My friend Mārtiņš Freimanis"), the second part is a traditional Latvian song, about Latvian nature-related deities.



Miss him... And the music he could have created... -_-
