Christy Dignam, the Irish musician best known as the frontman of Aslan, died on Tuesday at the age of 63 following a long illness.

Highlights from a successful singing career were two songs in particular that have withstood the passage of time: This Is, released in 1988, and Crazy World, released in 1993, are Irish pop/rock classics and remain among the most played songs on Irish radio.
