Oh my God. I'm so shocked. One of the true great legends.

I'm shocked too. I had no idea he was sick.

I have a few of his albums and have just ordered
Blackstar (vinyl).

He starred in one of my favorite movies The Prestige.

Because of the time difference, many Americans won't have received the news yet. What a horrible way to start the day. I find it scary when we lose people as influential as him.

I woke up in shock. It still hasn't hit me that he's gone. Many people noticed how Blackstar told of an end, could he have been warning us through the album? Who knows. Cancer is an awful, painful disease and at least he's in peace now.

Oh my God, he was one of my best friend's favorite artists...
I'm really amazed that he worked to leave us a last testament of his artistry while being sick. There will never be another like him.

His music leaves an imprint in my soul. RIP David.

Because he didn't want it to be known publicly. We only know that he had cancer for 18 months but it hasn't even been specified the tipe of cancer yet.

More likely that was what he requested to keep private.I read somewhere that He had liver cancer.

We've lost a legend, a genius and an inspiration. What a shock. The new album "Black Star" is a piece of art.

Could never have told he was ill- he's had the same gaunt look for the past 50 years.

Dropping by to express my sorrow and condolences also. Had an unusually rough night last night, then woke up to the awful news. Shed some tears today. Known a few people died from liver cancer and have to wonder if he didn't take the death with dignity pill. What a gift he was to the world. I understand he was truly a decent human being too. Gone too soon. RIP David Jones/Bowie.
