Miss that man.

Not a lover of space oddity, Five years is one of my faves though.

He was excellent and I feel privileged to have seen him in concert over the decades.

His '69 to '79 period has to be his best IMHO, and he did produce some decent later albums, I enjoyed Tin Machine too.

I think regardless of whether they are a dyed in the mool fan or not, pretty much everyone has a Bowie song that reminds them of something. A time, a place, a person.

That I think is a sign of his genius.

I like some of his very early stuff. Pre hunky dory, some of it is quite twee, but interesting as you can hear his style developing.

I just played "TVC15" , my favourite of his songs. "Starman" is one of those songs where I can see and smell and taste the seventies again when I hear it. "Changes" jellies me every time I play it and "Golden Years" makes me think of my twenties and the times when days were warm and nights were yu-huh-hunnnngggg. We were so lucky to have him

I remember seeing on Crackerjack (CRACKERJACK)

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky

One for the kids there

I’ve been a Massive Bowie fan since I was 12, saw the Spiders live 1973 Manchester Free trade Hall . Tin Machine I wasn’t keen on.

To many brilliant songs by the man to name.

Station To Station is my favourite album. The last one he wrote and recorded whilst still under his addictions but the title tract is a little known masterpiece

I'm sure a lot of us are old enough to remember him at Live Aid. Everyone remembers Queen but I always think of him in his serious moonlight suit and the amazing band he'd put together and the sheer class of his whole appearance. He had Thomas Dolby on keyboards who was an artist in his own right. He looked magnificent and sounded incredible. It's the kind of thing I watch when I need cheering up.

Freddie, on his deathbed to Elton John : "Have you heard Mrs Bowie's new album? What DOES she think she's doing??" They don't make 'em like those guys any more

He was the head boy, so he recited the lord's prayer.
