It doesn't feel right. A brilliant artist of the likes seldom ever seen.

David Bowie dead at 69

Postby Leaping Lindner » Mon Jan 11, 2016 5:48 pm

I'm afraid it's not a hoax. David Bowie one of the largest figures in Rock and Roll history has died from cancer at 69.

I've been listening to the radio today and hearing Bowie songs.

There will definitely never be another David Bowie. One of a kind. The term legend doesn't do him justice

Over and out from Ground Control, Major Tom. Thank you for all the transmissions.

A true artist in every sense of the word. Anticipated and set trends, and continually reinvented himself. The monicker 'pop star' doesn't really do his contribution to popular culture justice.

Rest in peace.

Very sad news.

I only have one David Bowie album but knew he was a musical genius. So many great songs by perhaps the greatest musical artist of our time.

Never heard this cover before, a great version of a great Bowie song.
