Come Dance The Blues With With Us Because David Bowie Has Died

David Bowie, the infinitely changeable, fiercely forward-looking songwriter who taught generations of musicians about the power of drama, images and personas, died on Sunday, two days after his 69th birthday.Mr. Bowie’s death was confirmed by his publicist, Steve Martin, on Monday morning.
He died after an 18-month battle with cancer, according to a statement on Mr. Bowie’s social-media accounts.
“David Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family,” a post on his Facebook page read.
If you are an extra old, perhaps you remember doing all the drugs back in the day while trippin' balls (although you extra olds didn't call it that back then, did you?) while listening to "Space Oddity" and the adventures of Major Tom. If you are a moderate old, you may remember obsessively watching Labyrinth as a child (which was awesome, yes it was) and wanting to go to there and sing along with the creepy cool guy, about how you remind us of the babe (what babe? the babe with the power!), as your parents chuckled because haha, little one, you have no idea just how creepy cool that guy really is.
But if you are One Of Us, you are invited to put on your red shoes and dance the blues, 'cause we imagine he'd want that, and share your most favorite favorites of David Bowie in the comments, which we do not allow except maybe this one time.
