The news of David Bowie's untimely death blew me away this morning. Found out reading Facebook. Couldn't believe it. He just turned 69, released one of his best albums in years, and realized a life-long dream of bringing a musical to the Broadway stage or rather Off-Broadway stage (ironically named "Lazarus" about a man who fell to earth and cannot die.)

Song, Blackstar, from his last album:
And ...the song "Lazarus" from the New Bowie Musical entitled Lazarus
And yes, in case you hadn't figured it out, I am a David Bowie fan. He was amongst the small list of performers that I'd have paid money to go see in concert. Never got the chance. Unfortunately.
Loved him since I first discovered him, at the ripe age of 16, in the mid-1980s.
