    The artist's Facebook page announced the news, with the singer's rep confirming his death to Rolling Stone. "David Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family after a courageous 18-month battle with cancer," the statement read. "While many of you will share in this loss, we ask that you respect the family's privacy during their time of grief."

    Just bought his latest release yesterday and returned home to the news.

    I can't believe it...I was just running Space Oddity through my head yesterday.
    And was watching a documentary "Five Years" on a significant part of his music career on Showtime

    He was one of my favs. :(

    The man was one of a kind.
    And did it well.

    His last video. - Lazarus


    From his just released album this week, Blackstar (on his birthday)
    Very brave, very meaningful.
    Great swan song.

    Wow! Lazarus is a truly spooky song and video. I'm guessing that Bowie knew the end was near.

    This' one of my favorites, and the song title is appropriate.

    Three days after Black Star came out. People are already speculating that Black Star was meant to be a "farewell" album.

    Another great one gone.

    Bowie was always on the periphery of what I listen to; but damn, the guy had a knack for picking up incredible guitarists.

    Mick Ronson
    Earl Slick
    Robert Fripp
    Peter Frampton
    and an unknown Stevie Ray Vaughan
