Life gave up on him, baby. I actually saw him almost 19 years to the day in the original London production of Springer: The Opera.
I always loved the song when I was a kid, never knew he was the Starsky and Hutch dude until I got older. There's a funny story about this song. After my parents got divorced my mother remarried, some redneck truck driver. One day when we were visiting this song was playing on the radio, we switched from the country channel while he was out. He came in and heard it and yelled at us to turn that N word music off.
