In 1991, she put out her %22Electric Landlady%22 album which provided her with the very big hit %22Walking Down Madison%22. A few years later in 1993, %22Titanic Days%22 was released. Kirsty died in Cozumel, Mexico after being hit by a speedboat which had crossed into an area restricted to swimmers only.
