To be honest I never knew he was not well. It's obviously saddening and shocking.
A completely unique artist. One must say that from 'Space Oddity' in 1969 through until 'Heroes' album in 1977, all those albums inbetween 1969-1977, all unique form of original genius....a word that is greatly misused, but here is entirely appropriate. That he during those years, each time re-invented himself and was able to write the next album in a different musical genre to the previous album, shows his unique original talent.
Unlike most, he didn't copy other artists.
That he pushed boundaries in such a daring - for those times - way and carried on pushing them, amazing man. An original thinker, before this there wasn't an artist like this, doing this and living through his created characters.
After 1978, his stuff becomes far too Pop Music for me.
1969-1977, if someone can't appreciate the actual genuine Art within that timeframe, then they don't understand Art.
Man, another kick in the gut.
Rest in peace, Ziggy Stardust.
Man, that band in the sky just keeps getting better. I'd guess he and Lou are having a martini right about now.

Oh yeah, great point.Man, another kick in the gut.
Rest in peace, Ziggy Stardust.

And with Mick Ronson.
Did he just celebrate a birthday recently?
Man, another kick in the gut.
Rest in peace, Ziggy Stardust.

And with Mick Ronson.
Mick did so much great work, but for me his ticket to Heaven was Ian Hunter's "Once Bitten Twice Shy", and those GLORIOUS power chords.Man, another kick in the gut.
Rest in peace, Ziggy Stardust.

Yes, Mick Ronson died a long time ago, he was still quite young, I think cancer got him also.
Hes not supposed to be dead before me. He's such a legend. He can;t be dead I;m losing it.
It hurts like hell, but try to hang in there.

Couldn't say it better myself...the 80's was a sad time for music across genres. So many artist sold out to the quick-cash of canned pop music and MTV. Sadly Bowie was one of them. His earlier work was masterful, truly one of the greats, even as unorthodox as it was.
RIP

I liked the second British Invasion that lunched what was the 'New Wave' sound. The Clash, Flock of Seagulls, INXS, The Knack etc
