Rest in Peace David, you gave us so much, and your music will continue to do that.

Bowie wrote the soundtrack to my life

Hence my username that is used here and everywhere else

I was not surprised, but was shocked

I am grateful that he was around during my life


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Agree with everything that's been said here. He was without doubt the most inventive and forward looking major artist I've had the pleasure to listen to and watch. Never stand still, never repeat yourself, embrace change seemed to be his motto.

We won't see his like again, that's for sure.
