My God, what a genius he was. Miss him.
Yes, he was. I was listening to both Hunky Dory and Alladin Sane in the last couple of days and was thinking how timeless his music is. The man was genius.
Agreed completely. I am looking forward to Stardust when it comes out:

No disrespect to the other dearly-departed musicians for whom biopics have been made in recent years, but Bowie’s musical genius is ahead of the others.
Lately I find myself trotting out Joni Mitchell’s classic line with more regularity: “Don’t it always seem to go, that you don’t know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone.”
Very true for David Bowie for me. I was always vaguely aware of his oeuvre but would not have considered myself a real fan. After he passed away and all the retrospectives started, it seemed like all I saw was example after example of great music – a lot of songs that frankly I did not even realize were his.
