Blimey, thats a bit of a shock. I actually had a bit of a soft spot for his single colourblind back in the day. Only 41 too, jeez, taken far too early. RIP Darius.
I said the moment I saw him on the first pop idols "he will have a number 1, no question" the guy clearly had an abundance of talent and a brilliant voice. Whilst X Factor and pop idol and that type of programme isn't my thing at all, the first shows were very hard to avoid. As a former DJ I can confirm I'd been asked to play colourblind, that went to number 1, more than once. Pretty much a perfect pop song with a chorus.
Same age as me, probably achieved more than I have too. Rest in peace young man
He was at university at the same time as me a few mates and my now Mrs knew him. Got some probably deserved stick at the time but made a good career for himself on the stage. Always shocking when someone your age does, very sad

Couldn’t believe he was still only 41. Thought he was talented.
