This is one I am actually sad about.  Love Bowie.

RIP Major Tom!

Saw this all over Twitter this morning when I woke up.  I'm unreasonably upset (given my casual fandom) by his passing.  Inexplicable.

Well, just because he looked 50, he WAS 69.

I meant my reaction is inexplicable.  Cancer will get you at 50 or 69 or whatever.

I hadn't heard anything about his battle until I saw the headline this morning.  Huge loss. Being older, I recall Bowie in his prime. Didn't really appreciate him until much later because early on, I didn't get the outrageous make-up, hair etc.

Same here. I came to appreciate The Ziggy more as I got older. He was extremely creative. Was able to pull off the "i'm artsy but also a pure rocker" paradigm.
