Beat me to it. A mod will have to delete my thread. Yes, such a legend. Especially given the recent crop of hoaxes floating around this past week regarding his death.

Re: RIP David Bowie
 

No no no no no, what? Is this real?

Re: RIP David Bowie
 

Well f*ck. R.I.P.

Re: RIP David Bowie

Music has lost a true legend.

Obviously a tremendous loss. He was releasing some of his best right up until the end.

Enormous loss. I can't even discuss it.

Big loss. Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley big.

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

The family knew this was coming, so at least he went the best way possible. The man was a legend and he will live on through his art. On a related note, I'm glad his last album was inspired by Kendrick Lamar. Very powerful torch passing.

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

I know I've heard his name somewhere. Labryinth?

Re: RIP David Bowie
 

Damn. He just released an album a few days ago. A legend. R.I.P.

BTW, this is totally my 500th thread.

I wanted it to be something big. This is big.

Back to David Bowie.

One of the greatest of all time. He'll be sorely missed.

Really sad to see so many legendary artists die in the past few years. R.I.P David Bowie. :(

Ahhh damn. Cursed with insomnia last night, I heard the news on the radio around 5.30am, just as I was drifting off to sleep. I knew he wasn't well but it still came as a massive shock. I cried myself to sleep.

Bowie was a proper hero of mine - My parents christened me David because of him and I was brought up on his early stuff. As a child I bought:

As a teenager, I mainlined Low and Heroes and this became my favourite:

Rest easy, Dame David. I'll even forgive you Tin Machine. :)

The laughing gnome will never be caught...

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

I've been so psyched about his new album Blackstar since they released the title song. I think that will be my next vinyl, then. It has to be.

RIP.

RIP, my user title has been one of his songs for quite some time.

Shocked to see this news today – I had seen part of Labyrinth over Christmas after many years and it's still a great film.

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

A. I didn't even know he was sick
2. This sucks.
C. Rest in Peace, Mr. Bowie.

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

Genuinely sad about this. :(

R.I.P.

Nobody knows it (except his family of course)

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

It came as quite a shock to me. Damn, rest in peace, Bowie. :(

Not the first thing I wanted to find out this morning

RIP

Ground Control to Major Tom. David Bowie is coming home. RIP David. You were a legend.

Sad day in the music world! Legend!

Rest in peace, Starman...

To commemorate him, I'll be posting my Top 20 Bowie songs later on today

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

This really hit me, since David Bowie is one of my favorite artists. I have to say that at least he went out on his own terms, he released a brilliant album that he intended as a final goodbye to his fans, and made a moving video for the song "Lazarus" that if you pay attention, was him giving his own eulogy. He will be missed, but as long as even one person plays his songs, he will live forever.

Stunned. Awful news. One of my earliest musical heroes.

Unforgettably perfect in Roeg's The Man Who Fell to Earth

David Bowie was one of my favorite artists..

I don't believe this...a music legend gone...I'm in shock...I loved "Fame" and also loved his performance in The Man Who Fell to Earth. RIP, Mr. Bowie.

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

I am too young to really be saddened by this news, but one of the first songs I ever really loved was Ziggy Stardust. He is amazing. Truly a great musician and probably a great person as well.

RIP.

Come on Cole! you know him like everyone else who watches cinema does

I was jamming today with some friends like we often do and we decided in honor of Bowie, we would do a little "Rebel Rebel". It's one of the first riffs I ever learned, and I still think it's one of the great riffs of all-time. There's no other riff that plays as fluidly and smoothly as that one. It's like how a phrase might roll off the tongue.

Re: R.I.P. David Bowie (1947-2016)
 

I heard the news yesterday morning just before 6am when I left for work. I thought about him all day and watched all the tribute programmes last night. Unlike Dave he wasn't one of my childhood heros but he was always there, if you know what I mean. He never became a singer of the past, he was always current. I loved him in the early days specially. From his first appearance on Top of the Pops singing Starman with his arm draped around Mick Ronson, I loved him then cos not only his songs were great but he (and all the glam rock singers back then) used to wind my dad up. His androgeny was curious to us and somehow threatening to some older people - that sort of parental shock always appeals to youngsters. His songs have been the background to my whole life.
Great musician and wordsmith. RIP

another reason to love David Bowie :)

Bowie charts seven albums in Billboard's 200 including Blackstar at number one.

Bowie impersonates Sprngsteen, Waits, Iggy, Newley, Reed and others.

I see my math was wrong, it's ten.
