Goodbye Ziggy Stardust

A legend but is it ok to say I'm getting bored of hearing about it after nonstop bowie songs on the radio 

Yes sad news and at 69 it isn't really that old these days, unless of course you're 18. I wouldn't say I was a fan but did enjoy many of his records from the 70s which kind of tied in with the Apollo space landings... A bit cringing hearing some of the politicians yesterday, saying how they grew up listening to his music and how iconic he was to them... Sometimes their better of saying nothing, what most of these politicians seem to forget is, is that during the 70's most rock / pop stars went into exile due to the massive tax burden of 98%....

Seems all the greats are a little quirky, if not mad ! Not saying i like these but they all have their "quirks" - Michael Jackson, Freddie Mercury, Lady GaGa, Prince, Bono, Elton John to name but a few.

Shocked to hear the news, such a shame and as Barney said 69 is no age.

Lets hope and pray for a cure. They have to find one soon !

Interesting to see how quickly Wikipedia updates it's entries (at least for celebs!). First reported 2 hours ago and wiki page already updated!

Was a superb (if a little odd) artist.”

terrible big brother trying to use David Bowies death, i wont give them any exposure, disgrace. He was down to earth and brilliant, big brother i see why i never watch

I think this is down to good old fashioned media hype.

I dont watch it either by Ch5 have issued a statement, which i did read, completely rubbishing the media story.

Angela was told off camera by her management team and she was given every opportunity to leave "the house" and still can leave at any time should she decide.

I dont know what more they could have done?
