Damn RIP David Bowie

[Britkid]

The famous face that brought European postmodernism into the mainstream psyche.

To get through the demons he did in the 70s and 80s was amazing.

It is almost too cliche, as so many misuse the phrases; but he was iconic and arguably a genius.

RIP legend. Shocking news and no pictures of him recently?

Timeless songs

[Gandalf]

There have been pictures but carefully taken and even with the last albums no interviews. Maybe since the heart scare in 2004 he has faced other set backs and then the cancer that took his life. Bowie gave so much in those last few years with a lot of songs. The new album feels a little like Closer in that the writer is explaining that this is the end. I didn't see it. Bowie was thin and you hear breathing on the album that wasnt there before but the vocals are strong so you just think it is age. You dont think 'He's dying' but he was. This has knocked me for six really. Will take a while.

Rest easy legend and thank you. What gets me is what strength and even loneliness it took to suffer with cancer over 18 months and not say anything. Its the exact opposite and way of society today.

Damn he looked good in those photos. Hell of a talent.
