 Music legend Neil Sedaka dead at 86


Legendary singer-songwriter Neil Sedaka passed away on Friday, February 27, at the age of 86. His family released a heartfelt statement expressing their grief, describing him as not only a rock and roll icon but also a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. 


They emphasized that while millions admired his music, those closest to him cherished the warmth of his character most deeply.


Sedaka’s death followed reports that he had been rushed to the hospital earlier that day. Rising to fame in the late 1950s and 1960s, he became a defining voice of the era with hits like Oh Carol, Breaking Up Is Hard to Do, and Next Door to an Angel. 


He was also a key figure in shaping the “Brill Building” sound, collaborating with lyricist Howard Greenfield to pen classics for other artists, including Stupid Cupid and Where the Boys Are for Connie Francis, and Love Will Keep Us Together for Captain & Tennille.


Over his six-decade career, Sedaka earned five Grammy nominations, scored multiple Billboard chart-toppers, and was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1978. 


He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1983, cementing his legacy as one of pop music’s most influential figures. 


Sedaka is survived by his wife of more than 60 years, Leba, and their two children, Dara and Marc, leaving behind a remarkable musical legacy and a devoted family.
