 Wow, what a death!
I have a friend, knew Isadora Duncan
Yeah she wore her scarves too long, hit the gas a bit too strong
She lost her head, still she saw the glory
Or so goes the story, hope she was not wrong

She waits underneath electricity
What does she touch? What does she see?
Isadora Duncan, so free
Isadora...

- Isadora Duncan, VoL

I should just pick figures in VoL songs from now on.

 Isadora Duncan
That is correct; well done. I figured it would come pretty quickly after your previous post.
In theory there were a lot of people who could have fit, but the pass really narrowed down the field, and then Wikipedia helped with the rest.

Next thread will be up when I think of someone.

That is 19 questions. I think we're probably looking for someone from the performing arts, maybe theater or dance.
