Biography
Kirsty MacColl (1959-2000) was an English singer-songwriter, daughter of *Ewan MacColl*, who wrote *Tracey Ullman*'s hit 'They Don't Know' and duetted with *The Pogues* on 'Fairytale of New York'. Albums like 'Kite' and the Latin-flavoured 'Tropical Brainstorm' showed a witty, craft-rich writer. She was killed in a boating incident in Cozumel in 2000. Her writing, funny and unsentimental in equal measure, has only grown in reputation since her death.
