I was shocked to hear of David Bowie’s death on the news this morning after a battle with cancer.
His legacy will live on, and no doubt he will continue to be an inspiration for many musicians and artists whose lives he had touched.

I was shocked too because I only saw it on Rich’s post…. So sad! He will always remain one of the greatest.

The song that was just released shocked me. Did you check “Lazarus” yet? It appears as if you was just saying good bye with it and comforting us that he will be never gone at all.

I have just checked it out now. Yes it is like he was saying goodbye, and that he was going to be free.

He must have known it for long. I told Rich that reminds me of Freddie Mercury and his song “The Show Must Go On”

I hadn’t heard! Terrible! I was so psyched up about his new album and now this?

I didn’t even know that he had been fighting cancer for the past 18 months. It was just such a dreadful shock. It seemed that he made that last album especially as he knew how ill he was.

He could’ve rested on his laurels years ago, but continued to challenge the musical status quo. Today is truly the day the music died.

He was an ever inventive and talented entertainer.
Heard a discussion about him on the radio this morning while on my way to the hairdresser’s, but had no idea he had died. Read it here first.
So young…

Indeed his legacy will live one and especially more-so because of his last just released album, which will be analyzed to death.

Well, he knew he was dying when he made it, and a lot has been made of the single he just released ‘Lazarus’ both for the lyrics and the video!

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
