Ah Leo wasn't the only one that died in a plane crash in two thousand
one. I remember another singer being pronounced dead in a plane crash in two
thousand one named Melanie Thornton. I Love How You Love Me? She sang
a song titled love How You Love Me. On the night of November twenty
fourth, two thousand one, Thornton was one of the twenty four people who
died in the plane crash of Cross Air flight three five nine seven near Zurich,
Switzerland, at the age of thirty four. The main cause of the
accident was the captain descending the plane too early, causing it to crash into
a forest area when it got too close to the ground. Thornton had given
a performance in Leipzig and two hours later she took the flight from Berlin to
Zurich for upcoming radio and TV performances. Among others, the broadcast Die Bar
on TV three, which was canceled to promote her new single Wonderful Dream,
Holidays Are Coming, a Christmas ballad recorded for a German Coca Cola TV commercial,
and her album Ready to Fly. Thornton was laid to final rest in
her native South Carolina at Mount Pleasant Memorial Gardens in Mount Pleasant, Charleston County,
South Carolina. Melanie Thornton was the lead singer of the euro dance group
Labouch from nineteen ninety four to two thousand, alongside American rapper and backing vocalist
Laine McCrae. Their two most successful singles, Sweet Dreams and Be My Lover,
was released in nineteen ninety four and nineteen ninety five, respectively. After
leaving the group, Thornton began a solo career and found success primarily in European
countries before her death in two thousand one. Her solo songs include Love,
How You Love Me, Heartbeat Making, ooh Ou talking about love, and
Wonderful Dream Holidays Are Coming, I'm Gale, Nobles, you're listening to the
cat There to day's topic. Melanie Thornton Rest in peace.
