R.i.p. david bowie

Is it normal that the sad news of Bowie passing has made my depression be replaced by just sadness for the lose of David vs my own selfish depression.

Bowie was the top musician/celebrity i wanted to just met and listen to tell stories and this feels like such a lose for everyone that loves music.

So did Bowie or any other musician inspire you or carry large significant to you?

    I remember him in a movie from back in the 70's called, "The Man Who Fell to Earth", which was a great job of acting. I liked a lot of his music, too. I feel for anybody who suffered from cancer because I have brother in law dying of it as I write, poor guy.

        Thanks, but it's too late. They brought in the priest yesterday, and he's heavily sedated now. Only a matter of hours.

    I was a bit shocked, but these things happen to the us all. The day I hear of Bjorks death will be a devastating day for me. I don't even wanna think about it. Silly maybe, but so am I.

    Meh. I was never a fan so not a big loss to me.

    I give him credit as an actual artist compared to a lot of entertainers. Still he wasn't my cup of tea.

    I often hear of celebriy deaths and I'm not bothered, it's almost like I want to be but with how many things go on in the world you can get detached, I feel genuinely really upset over this though

    The word genius is thrown around a lot but this is one case where it applies, a man who defied categorisation and constantly reinvented himself with success after sucess influencing many and having a huge impact on modern music,

    The appeal of his music is amazing, admired by people of his generation to a 23 year old like me and younger, and more to come, even his death was a work of art, when it came out Lazarus was an amazing song and video but watching it with the knowledge of what it was actually about brought me to tears, or once I can honestly day I'm going to miss a man I never even knew

      It was some kind of cancer, possibly liver.

        Well regardless of what people think of the man as a person, he still left a legacy of great music and a few good movies. May he rest in peace.

    Another HUGE talent gone. The world will be a lesser place without his creativity and energy.
    Strangely, just two days ago I read a long detailed article about his career and the personas he developed to enhance various stages of his ever changing musical styles.
    I'll miss you, Ziggy.

            Thank you for your intelligent and thought provoking reply. I know it took a great deal of thought for you to come up with such an erudite reply and I sincerely hope that you will continue to contribute such helpful comments in the future.

          Yeah its petty. The person with no life is angry and butthurt. Hence our negative votes. Its hilarious that there is someone like that out there with no other ambitions but to mess with people they do not know online all day.

            I'm sure every one of those seven down votes is from a chickenshit coward who would pee his/her pants at the mere mention of crossing an ocean on a 50' sailboat. No, I don't think it's the sailing, sorry. They just don't have the balls.
            I believe it's the fact that I'm a happily 60 something married man getting laid daily, while they haven't even managed to get a kiss, yet. Boo fucking hoo.

              Actually NO. I don't think you got all those downvotes from someone who is jealous of your "lifestyle". It's obvious that they are from people who (and I'm sure there are quite a few of them) that dislike you intensely (and well deserved it is too!) and therefore would disagree with anything you might say.

              I happen to agree with what you said about Bowie and I didn't downvote you though I find you and, everything about you, extremely replusive. Bowie WAS a musical genius whether you liked his music or not.

              By the way, you really should work on your cover story as you have been telling us for well over a year now how you are 69 but it should be at least 70 years you are now now not a "60 something married man". It's the little details that count.

              Something else too, is your "wife" happy with all your attention being taken up with being on this site, practically 24/7 instead of "getting laid daily'? I suppose she would, as if I were her, I would rather you do this than try to get your wrinkled old arse between my legs and try to push your pathetic old member into me. EEEEUUUW!

              Child, stop throwing a tantrum, and get over it. Sulking won't help. Neither will pretending to be married to a woman, 42 years your junior and sailing the Caribbean.

              Not that I like or hate you, but you seem to be one of the most hated users on IIN. It's most likely more than one person disliking your comments. Probably a combination of charli.m and her crazy husband who wants to cut off one of his own limbs, Ellenna, derpyderp, The_Creep, and the other sailors.

              Some of your comments are just plain stupid or bitchy, and whenever someone points out that you were wrong, you turn into a big, whiny 5-year-old and start throwing a tantrum. Like the comment I'm replying to now.

              On a side note, if all of us mean so little to you, why do you always write a response of multiple paragraphs whenever someone criticises or makes fun of you?

      Why did people downvote you to negative 6 for this comment?! You must have a few haters here....or most likely one hater with no life and multiple accounts.

        Whether one liked Bowie's music or not, his talent was undeniable to everyone except a complete simpleton.
