This one hurts. Didn't really get into Bowie until about 3 years ago. Blew me away how he could be such a vocal and stylistic chameleon. Rest in Peace you magnificent bastard.

RIP! Another music legend died and the world gets a little more sadder

I became a fan of David Bowie about 12 years ago. I've countless hours listening to him. I was really excited this past fall when Bowie announced not only a new album but that it would come out in January. I was shocked to hear the news but I was glad to see all the praise he was getting. I've honestly never seen so many people talk about him, I remember I've always been pretty alone when discussing him, even when his new record came out a few weeks ago. He meant to tour if I recall correctly and was hoping to finally see him live, sadly that will never happen now but I do think this last album was a love letter to his fans.

Blackstar is basically his testament and you should all buy it.

I just watched The Labrynith last night for the first time in ironic timing. I would not call it a classic, but one with a message to kids and brilliantly designed set pieces. Grade 89 B.

So, a local tv channel played a movie that contained a character reminiscent of Bowie last Friday.
That's creepy as hell.

Sounds like how I was watching Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier just as I learned that Robin Williams died, and earlier my brother was wanting to watch Aladdin on VHS. Needless to say, Twisted's Genie (Djinn) scene was very, very awkward.

I found an interesting article chronicling David Bowie's appearances on commercials throughout the years.

I was shocked when I read the news about his death. RIP David Bowie. I had no idea he was fighting cancer.
