Yeah, he certainly abused his body in the 70s which must have taken a toll. A heavy smoker all his life too. However, a true chameleon, a champion of evolvement, a lot of charisma, and an undoubted talent, superb performer, exceptional song writer, decent singer with a distinctive voice, capable actor and a passable artist too. Over his decades, probably one of the most important pop stars of all time.

Nihil Nisi Bonum. This moralising is really not appropriate. The fellow didn't take drugs for years. Why, Oh why do people imagine themselves towering defenders of ethics just because they opportunistically can twist an obit, or a death to some point? 'Love covers a multitude of sins'. What's wrong with you people?

I'm an objective rather than an enthusiastic follower, but Mrs TG is a huge fan and was deeply saddened. I doubt if anyone is unaware of the risks he's taken down the years and they don't need to be raked over in this thread.

A major loss of an unique talent. I'm quite shocked and saddened. May you RIP Major Tom!.

Whether you loved or hated his work, he was a pioneer and mercurial talent who was as often the generator of trends as their prophet. A good human being, who covered the course. His lyrics were often paradoxical, he flirted with chaos writing, he's now no doubt where the paradoxes are all resolved: Another rich junky die. The man was part of the junky Seventies movement, along with The Rolling Stones and many others. He exposed his organism to a killer of anti-body. So, everyone who dies of cancer is a rich junky Ludicrous reaction ! I am/was a big Bowie fan, a very intelligent man, wonderful performer, always re-inventing himself, incorporating other art-forms into music. Had the pleasure of seeing him several times in concert. Even the years he was absent, he stayed relevant, and forever will remain so RIP Mr. Jones
