A google news search shows that John's death is news all over the world. Media outlets in Taiwan, Australia, California, and even Wales.
Maybe being a familiar voice on the world service played a part there, but they all seem to refer to the music.
I can think of very few people that I've never met that I'd shed a tear over, but I did today.

It wasn't enough and probably never would have been (that's music for you) but thanks for everything. Too soon, too sad.
