The world pay tribute to Legend David Bowie

For the model however, it was more of a slow burn but she said that he succeeded in changing her mind.

Following David’s death, his 25th studio album Blackstar has charged up the United Kingdom music charts proving just how much of an inspiration he was, and continues to be.

Bowie released his final album, “Blackstar”, on Friday, which was also his 69th birthday. The conversation took place about a week before his death, and Bowie wrote five new tracks for the project.

Hundreds gathered in Hyde Park to pay tribute to musical legend David Bowie by showing off their best dance moves and belting out some of his greatest hits. “We began working together on our show “Lazarus”, and at one moment he took me to one side to say that because of his illness, he would not always be able to be around”, Van Hove told NRC Dutch daily.

Bowie died Sunday night at age 69 after an 18-month battle with cancer.

Visconti admitted he was “knocked sideways” when he learnt of Bowie’s death – but does not know the details of what happened in his final days. Everybody knows me now.

The singer, songwriter, producer, painter and actor was described in a New York Times obituary as having “the voice of a rock belter but the sensibility of a cabaret singer”. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, he revealed that a week before his death, Bowie contacted Visconti and said he wanted to make another album.

Van Hove said that at the Lazarus premiere in NY on December 7, Bowie collapsed from exhaustion – “It was then that I realised it may be the last time I would see him”.

“I wasn’t, however, prepared for it. He was an extraordinary man, full of love and life”. Twitter, Facebook and Instagram were overflowing with tributes to the pop star whose music was influenced by his one-of-a-kind artistic vision.

“I often wonder what might have been”, he said of his decision to join Yes and not work with Bowie again.
