David Bowie gone at 69

[vonclod]

Wow, just heard Bowie passed away from cancer at the age of 69. He was an innovator and seldom boring..R.I.P. David you will be missed.

And he just came out with an album four days ago. Huh.

No shit, I did hear a song someone posted but I didn't know a whole album, we seem to have to wait an extra week or three for new releases, I will have to check out the new one..I did like the new tracks on Sound & Vision.

He was great.

Although I always thought It funny that in this video it shows him playing a guitar solo, but it was really SRV playing that.

This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating*in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
Though I'm past*one hundred thousand miles
I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go

Bye bye Ziggy you crazy bastard :mrgreen:

I doubt i will make it to 69 myself, even have my doubts about 60 so seem like i will never collect a pension here as the age for that is 68 i think. :roll:

Live hard, work hard, die not so old. 8)

He knew he was going and wanted to leave a gift for his fans..so sad, the visuals making me leak

My first exposure as a kid was either Let's Dance or Little China Girl. I'll never forget those songs. Thanks David Bowie.

RIP DB.

Your artistry was in the background of my youth. You will be missed.

Not a fan of his music but the dude was a financial genius. David Bowie: A financial innovator as well as a musical genius | Business | London Evening Standard

Grew up with his music.

Damn, first Lemmy and now Bowie.

Godspeed gentleman, we have lost some greats.

RIP David Jones (Bowie) 1947-2016

First exposure was Ashes to Ashes....

Has anyone heard where he died? London?

 

[The Violator]

Damn, first Lemmy and now Bowie.

Godspeed gentleman, we have lost some greats.

Hopefully they are with Bonzo and are cranking out some tunes.

I don't think anyone else could've played The Goblin King as cool as Bowie did in Labyrinth.
I loved that movie as a kid... shit, I still love that movie.

Way ahead of his time on issues with an amazing body of work. I can't wait to hear his latest album, it deals with mortality as you might guess. He was an amazing showman and performance artist he was only 69 its very sad.
