Tribute concert to feature 20 artists covering David Bowie classics

The sun rose Monday on a world filled with sorrow for fans and followers of rock musician David Bowie, though “rock” and “musician” were always too confining to describe the impact the 69-year-old British artist had on the culture through which he traveled for over half a century in the public eye.

Even when Mr. Bowie said questionable things about fascism, there was a tendency to give him the benefit of the doubt because he was so many leagues ahead of the rest of us.

“Blackstar” was released on January 8, Bowie’s 69th birthday and two days before he died.

Long before alter egos and wild outfits became commonplace in pop, Bowie set the music world on its ear with the release of the 1972 album, “The Rise of Ziggy Stardust and Spiders from Mars”, which introduced one of music’s most famous personas.

He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996, but he didn’t attend the ceremony.

“I was trying to think of something amusing to say, but it just wouldn’t come out right”, Fallon continued.

Hundreds of Londoners honoured the memory of British rock legend David Bowie by gathering in the area where he was born, lighting candles and singing his greatest hits.

“I think celebration is a good way to go about (remembering Bowie), and I think that’s what resonated with people”.

He released a music video on Friday for the new song “Lazarus”, which shows a frail Bowie lying in bed and singing the track’s lyrics.

She said: “I don’t see him (Duncan) at all”.

Music journalist and filmmaker Wes Orshoski, who years ago worked at the Register, lamented the one-two punch of losing not just Bowie but Motorhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister, of whom Orshoski recently co-directed the documentary “Lemmy”.

“If I don’t leave I look callous”.

Dublin-based Gwen Devita, originally from NY, said she used to steal her aunt’s Bowie albums to listen to them.

Murphy said he didn’t discover the hit Bowie song by hearing it on the radio or on a record player growing up. The former model, 66, who is now participating in season 17 of Celebrity Big Brother, opted to stay on the show and allowed cameras to capture her sorrow after being notified of the iconic musician’s passing.

“He was wonderfully shameless in his work we had so many good times together”, Jagger said”. It will be hard for him, I know.

“I couldn’t sleep and I began to read Bowie’s ex-wife’s memoir paperback”. That night something changed in me – i felt a calmness grow, a sureness.
