One of my favorite quotes:
“I'm a born librarian with a sex drive”
― David Bowie
It was sad. I sat down & watched Labyrinth with my daughter. She loved it. Now another generation to love & appreciate David Bowie. You will be missed!
Shocked yesterday when I found out but like the one song by the Righteous Bros says "If there's a rock n roll heaven they have one hell of a band. RIP David Bowie
icon, legend. genius, innovator all in one and so many more... your music will live on in all of this world forever
Ashes To Ashes
Its Ashes to Ashes
Now the Starman has gone
To a seat in the heavens
Where the party lives on.
Where ziggy keeps playing
Like its Hunky Dory,
And we could all be heroes
In another crazy story.
Now life on Mars is coming
In an oddity of space,
As the man who sold the world
We never can replace.
So turn up every station
And put your helmet on,
It's time to leave this capsule
So Goodnight Major Tom.
Gone too soon! R.I.P. The Man that fell to Earth
Patton Oswalt mentioned Bowie's passing yet again on "Conan" last night, saying it saddened him even more knowing that neither he nor Conan will be able to die like Bowie, leaving great work at/near both ends to bookend their career...
That's why I'd rather have a million other diseases than the 2 or 3 I've been diagnosed with for sure... No cures, which means I could die today or in 50 years. At least those committing suicide know when it's happening.
I read a few days back the man that shares my hometown, Dave Grohl, is going to perform a tribute to him on an upcoming show (maybe Oscars). Days before that, read DG recalling DB turning-down a discussed collaboration, so it surprises me a bit (both the refusal & that Dave recalls that & will still perform the other).
