RIP....wonderful talent..made me proud to be British..

There's a huge gap in the music world right now.
 
I wasn't much of a music fan, a few songs I liked but Labyrinth and the Hunger were two great movies. He was very sexy in both of those.
 
I'm a huge fan of his music. I was born in '62 so was a little young to appreciate him when his first album was released in '69. I discovered him in the mid 70's with Heroes, and was hooked ever since. He was fearlessly creative. He just released new material on Friday. Had not had a chance to hear it yet. So sad.
 
Genuinely gutted - I can't think of a more creative, versatile musician. The reactions I have seen are entirely deserved. RIP. :(
 
He was great. Him & Mick Jagger did a tremendous rendition of "Dancing In The Streets. "

Other then the album "Space Oddity", my other favourites are Diamond Dogs & Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars.

He also did the film 'The Man Who Fell To Earth".

Never did get to see him in concert but I did see a performance on that show "The Midnight Special".
 
He'll be missed - but what a legacy he leaves behind him. :cool:
 
He was a very private person. Friday was his birthday and no one knew that he was riddled cancer.
Several years ago, I was at NYU in the blood unit. I was leaving or about to leave. It was about 3, maybe 4 pm. I think they close about 4 maybe 5 so it was pretty quiet.
David came in with his wife... No security because that would have prob called attention. I recognized him by his haircut and of course his wife is very striking, beautiful. They walked in and headed straight for a room.
I asked one of the receptionists if that was David Bowie. she quietly said yes and the unit was locked.

remember seeing him on Top of the Pops, in the UK, in the early seventies and he did Starman - every body was talking about it the next day. We hadn't seen anything quite like him.

I saw him live twice...and he was amazingly cool both times.
 
Total shock!

Watching vids of several of his songs on Vimeo now.

Can't believe Jagger and Richards have outlived him.


Long-time producer Tony Visconti described Blackstar, his final album as Bowie's "parting gift".

"He made Blackstar for us, his parting gift. I knew for a year this was the way it would be. I wasn't, however, prepared for it," Visconti posted on Facebook.

The 40-minute-long album included seven tracks, but it was the lyrics of Lazarus which sparked a reaction among fans.

In an eery film clip that opens with a blindfolded, button-eyed Bowie writhing on a hospital bed, he sings: "Look up here, I'm in heaven, I've got scars that can't be seen, I've got drama, can't be stolen, everybody knows me now."

The final verse concludes: "Oh I'll be free, just like that bluebird. Oh I'll be free, ain't that just like me."



...and in a 1973 interview, Bowie claimed he 'loved life' most of all.

RIP...

I guess the next few years will see them go...Jagger, Richard, Townsend....:(
 
So sad, I saw him live once and it was amazing. Such a performer, amazing talent. He will be missed. RIP.
 
This is depressing. What's even sadder is the new generation of music to take over. While there's still some good music out there, I can't imagine being fifty and jamming to 'Hotline Bling' while my kids look on in horror. I like the 'older' generation of music and I'm sad I'm young enough that most of the greats will have passed in my lifetime.
