When in doubt...

[ozsaint1976]

"When in doubt, listen to David Bowie.

In 1968, Bowie was a gay, ginger, bonk-eyed, snaggle-toothed freak walking around South London in a dress, being shouted at by thugs. Four years later, he was still exactly that - but everyone else wanted to be like him, too.

If David Bowie can make being David Bowie cool, you can make you being cool. PLUS, unlike David Bowie, you get to listen to David Bowie for inspiration. So you're one up on him, really. YOU'RE ALREADY ONE AHEAD OF DAVID BOWIE."

(Not my quote, just something on the internet I found especially poignant today)

That's Caitlin Moran, the writer of Raised by Wolves.

Didn't even know he was ill so it was a shock to hear he'd gone.
Apart from his earlier stuff, the energetic, scruffy, raw, rock and roll, I was never really a huge Bowie fan and lost interest with all that androgynous, glam rock stuff he started producing in the seventies.

Nonetheless, a world class, iconic superstar has been lost to us this day ! So sad.

RIP Mr David Bowie.
