David Bowie has died
 
http://www.theguardian.com/music/201...-the-age-of-69

:

The singer’s death was confirmed in a Facebook post on his official page: “David Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family after a courageous 18-month battle with cancer. While many of you will share in this loss, we ask that you respect the family’s privacy during their time of grief.”
His last music video was released 4 days ago:




I was never a huge Bowie fan myself but I think he’s made an appearance in nearly everyone’s lives and had a major impact on pop culture. Life on Mars? and Space Oddity are two of my personal favorites of his songs.

We didn't have a Lemmy thread.

This is literally the only thing I know David Bowie for



But of course it's sad that he died because he was a human being. And also he had fans.

That's because you're a terrible person, and no one will ever love you.

Poor old David :( the world lost a great artist today.

RIP David Bowie. He accomplished a lot in his life and his career as an artist, and was an inspiration to hundreds of thousands. He was something else.

I have friends who never even heard of David Bowie. Also I think I read somewhere that he was a white supremacist or something but I'm not sure where and I don't think it's true.

Terrible people tend to congregate together.

If you most keenly feel its absence, you're clearly the person who should have created it.

Fuck cancer.

Also the music video to Lazarus gave me frigging chills. The guy clearly knew he was dying and this was his way to say goodbye. :(

I liked the art direction in the video. The song was okay too.

There are theories that his final album is about his own death. Apparently it’s a very dark album in general.

It's quite obvious it is... a single listen to it will confirm it, that's not what I would call a "theory".

Manco 01-15-2016 07:23 AM

To be fair, I haven’t listened to it.

OANST 01-15-2016 07:32 AM

Bullshit! Kick his ass, Xavier!

Varrok 01-23-2016 12:00 PM

Seems like some people are not happy with Bowie's death and demand some action against it

Nepsotic 01-23-2016 01:04 PM

I liked Labyrinth.

Bowie really made em jiggle.

Nepsotic 01-23-2016 01:53 PM

Fuck yeah...

Well they say the first stage is Denial.
