I was shocked and saddened to hear this morning of the passing of musical legend David Bowie. He was a true artist who exuded talent from every pore and has a legacy that will live on forever. This is a little tribute to a true icon of music that changed the game many times and below I’ve featured a video clip of one of his songs that I always enjoyed. R.I.P David Bowie.

That’s very true. I’ve always admired artists who do their thing, and do it well, no matter what people may think. He was very innovative in his sound, style, using other types of music to influence his. He was certainly a trendsetter and an individual of his own making.

I just kept saying, “why?!” to the people at work. I accidentally upset a woman who sits opposite me as she didn’t know he’d died, so I felt even worse then. It’s such a shame the world lost him so soon.
