Bowie was our Koi; he transported us to other worlds through his talents. I wholeheartedly believe that there will never be anyone else like him ever again. I am so grateful to have been part of a generation who got to experience him and all he had to offer. Even though he is gone now- and dearly missed, what he gave to the world is transcendental and will continue to illuminate the world. Rest in peace, Starman.

David Bowie was an inspiration and pioneer in art and music and film. In my opinion he was one of, if not the greatest musical influence of all time! Aside from his amazing performances and many many incredible albums, he demonstrated to the world that you can take any approach you want when it comes to music or just the way you live your life! He proved that it doesn’t matter if you are different or gay or bisexual that u can be anything you want to be and succeed at it and to take things your own way! I really believe he is the reason that music and art are so diverse and eclectic, without him who knows where we would be. It’s truly sad and a terrible loss to see David Bowie go but what he did for the world and his art, music, legacy will never die!! Rest In peace Ziggy Stardust!

When an artist, or any creative person in the pantheon of human expression, passes away, especially untimely, too young, we have a chance to think about that time in our lives when they were making a mark on us. A time to, again, fully appreciate what they meant and represented to us, and how they "anchored" us to that time and space. I know in both Bowie and Glenn Frey's case, many memories came flooding back to me, mostly good, it was a young and exciting time, with many changes going on inside and outside my head…

I remember distinctly, going on Chapman College World Campus Afloat in 1974, we took along a record player or cassette deck (who remembers what we had back then?) And listened to Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane (Jean Genie, Panic in Detroit) as we traveled the world at age 20, he forever defined for me my formative, college years, remember the persona The Thin White Duke? Young Americans, Modern Love, wow! Love it all! It is so shocking to lose him so suddenly…same with Glenn Frey, we grew with the Eagles, those songs were anthems for our teens and twenties…rest in peace, both of you. Make some unbelievable music in Rock Heaven!
