David Bowie s-a stins din viata la 69 de ani

David Bowie s-a stins din viata la 69 de ani, dupa o lunga batalie impotriva cancerului, la numai 3 zile de la lansarea ultimului sau album "Blackstar".

Conform paginii de facebook a artistului:
"January 10 2016 - David Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family after a courageous 18 month battle with cancer. While many of you will share in this loss, we ask that you respect the family’s privacy during their time of grief."

Traducere:

"10 Ianuarie 2016 - David Bowie s-a stins din viata astazi inconjurat de familia sa, dupa o lupta curajoasa de 18 luni impotriva cancerului. In timp ce multi dintre voi veti impartasi aceasta pierdere, va rugam sa respectati intimitatea familiei in timpul lor de doliu."

Timp de aproape 5 decenii, David Bowie a insemnat rebeliune, mister dar si curiozitate in lumea sa muzicala. De-a lungul carierei sale a urcat in topuri cu hituri precum: "Space Oddity, " "Changes, " "Fame, " "Heroes, " "Let's Dance" si "Where Are We Now?" si multe altele.
Impactul sau asupra comunitatii muzicale a fost imens. De-a lungul timpului mai multi artisti au facut coveruri dupa piesele sale, printre care: Joan Jett, Duran Duran, Smashing Pumpkins, Marilyn Manson, Arcade Fire, Oasis, Ozzy Osbourne, Morrissey, Beck, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bauhaus, Nine Inch Nails.

Cu 2 zile inainte mortii sale, artistul a pus ★ (pronounced Blackstar), de data asta de ziua lui. Albumul reflecta interesul artistului in jazz si hip-hop. Acesta a facut anuntul pe pagina sa de Facebook:



"HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID BOWIE AND ★

“That’s the message that I sent...”

Why is this man so happy? Is it because it‘s his 69th birthday or that he has released his 28th studio album today and it’s a corker?

Who knows, but we’re sure you’ll want to join us in congratulating him on both.

Many happy returns of the day to David Bowie and ★
