David Bowie preminuo je nedugo nakon svog 69. rođendana nakon duge i teške borbe s rakom.

Bowie je prije samo tri dana objavio novi album "Blackstar" i činilo se kako glazbenik ne misli posustati.

Ipak, bolest s kojom se borio u tajnosti posljednjih godinu i pol bila je nemilosrdna.

Svijet je šokiran tom viješću, a reakcije drugih glazbenika pokazuju kakav je utjecaj Bowie imao i koliko će nedostajati. Svi se slažu u jednom – nekoga kao što je bio David Bowie glazbeni svijet više neće imati.

David Bowie was one of my most important inspirations, so fearless, so creative, he gave us magic for a lifetime.

People always asked me what actor I wanted to work with the most, and I'd always say David Bowie. Sad I'll never get that chance. RIP

Songwriting, music owes David Bowie a great debt. Such sad sad news. RIP Bowie.

He never seemed of this earth. Now he's left it. He bent rules, gender, genres, and our minds. RIP David Bowie. One. Of. A. Kind.

I njegova dugogodišnja supruga objavila je na svojem Twitteru dirljivu poruku prije 18 sati, prije nego li je i vijest o njegovoj smrti službeno izašla van.
