R.I.P David Bowie

[Chris]

I've only just learned about his death, very sad - it seemed he was planning to revive his career at the age of 69.

Rest in Peace David Bowie

I think he deliberately timed the release of his last album to coincide with his death, especially when you look at the lyrics about heaven and dying. It's rather strange but he was never afraid to look a bit weird!

RIP David Bowie, a legend of our time.

i agree with dangerous, it seemed he knew and wanted to say one final goodbye. rest in peace bowie!

Great admirer of the man and his influence on many things in modern life. Not so much his music, but the impact!

RIP

[Fan of Big Tone]

He was an artist that certainly spanned the decades and had many faces/personas during his lifetime. RIP David.

Very clever writer who knew how to be larger than life. R.I.P!

I'm 40 this year. In my lifetime I have lived through the death of Freddie Mercury (one of the greatest showmen ever), Kurt Cobain (I shed tears), Michael Jackson (the greatest pop star in his day) and now David Bowie (musical genius). One by one my childhood icons are leaving this world. Suddenly I'm very aware of my own mortality.

The first single I bought was Jean Genie and the first album Daimond Dogs.  RIP.
