If you didn't know, last Sunday, the 10th of january, the legendary David Bowie passed away due to cancer. He was said to die peacefully surounded by family, just 2 days after his 69th birthday and releasing what would be his final album"Blackstar".
I'm going to be completelly honest and say that I don't have a wide knowledge of Bowie's work, just some o the first albums like "David Bowie" and "Space Oddity", and of course his most famous singles like "Heroes" and "Let's Dance". But of course doesnt' mean anything, the love and respect I have for both the man and the work are the same as if I knew every song by heart.
David Bowie inspired and helped many people.
He thaught millions of lives to accept and love themselves, while making wonderful and powerful songs for the whole world to enjoy. Even if you aren't amazed bu his actions, you will be by his music.
He was such an iconic person that even after 5 decades there are still people discovering his work everyday.
The news of his death shocked and saddened the world today, but the amazing person that David Bowie was will always be remembered.
