So when the music’s over

When the music’s over, yeah

When the music’s over

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

Play in peace, Ray.

Ray Manzarek, 1939 – 2013

Ayrton Senna da Silva,  March 21, 1960 – May 1, 1994

“These things bring you to reality as to how fragile you are; at the same moment you are doing something that nobody else is able to do. The same moment that you are seen as the best, the fastest and somebody that cannot be touched, you are enormously fragile.”
- Ayrton Senna
