I understand what you're saying. I think I have only ever felt this depth of loss (of a celebrity) once before and that would be Robin Williams.Very sad.
Normally I get very short tempered and snippy with people claiming they are "mourning" a celebrity they don''t know that has died. I mean how can you have real profound affection for someone you don;t know.
Therefore I am quite suprised and taken aback and the sense of loss and real sadness I am feeling this morning. I guess for people of my age his music is so inextricably tied up in our personal histories.
Gutted.

David was my first crush, (that lasted for yeeeears) I had (only) his posters on my walls and ceiling, collected everything, watched every movie... dressed like him, filed my eye teeth so they were pointy like his listened to his music on my turntable by day and every night on my walkman (yeah, I'm old) as I fell to sleep.
My first concert was his 1987 Glass Spider Tour... I can still hear the music now and see his face, first when I threw the black rose at him onto the stage (he smiled and nodded at me!) and second when his limo nearly ran me over after the concert.
I still can't believe he is gone... I loved this man, his singing (& speaking) voice, his song writing, his music, his acting... and he was a very nice guy too, off stage.
You will be sooooo missed David Bowie, I am so sorry to see you go. R.I. P my old friend. ♥
What a shock. I had no idea he had been battling cancer. He just released a new album and I thought everything was good. He had had a heart attack years ago that sidelined him for a while but he seemed to be doing ok. Sad news.
I think he kept it pretty quiet.I wasn't aware he was sick.
R.I.P. David Bowie.
First thing I heard on the news this morning. It does not seem real. May he finally be at peace and free from the evil "C" . Will hold the memories of his music close .
