I don't know what to say about one of the most timeless artists of all time, one who touched millions -myself included- with his ever changing and genre-defying music.

    I read in an interview shortly before his passing, he expressed it wasn't his death that concerned him, instead it was the time his daughter wouldn't have with her father that she would have to miss. He loved her so much and she was his future. Maybe the world was a little better for awhile with your music and your message David. We all miss you.

But the first song to be played out loud in the air on the surface of Mars was the tune of "Happy Birthday," also played by Curiosity on August 5th 2013 (the anniversary of when it landed) using its Sample Analysis on Mars instrument to vibrate at different frequencies to produce the pitches of the song. I find it really awesome but also a little heartbreaking to think about Curiosity up there, completely alone, with this happy little tune echoing across the empty Martian landscape every August 5th with no one to hear it :')

    Nobody will probably see this, but I just want to put it out there anyway. Every time I listen to this song I get somewhat emotional, its such a beautiful song and was a large part of my childhood. As a kid I loved space, and David Bowie. Me and my Mom would go on vacations together and we would frequently go to Colorado in the winter time, in the day we would look at the beautiful rocky mountains and in the night gaze into the beautiful night sky. I remember us driving up a snowy hill in the middle of the night, stars showing, with this song playing on the radio. I also would frequently go to Space Camp and would constantly listen to this song. I even had a shirt that said, "I'm a motherf*cking Starman" that my Mom got me, even though she never let me wear it out in public I still loved it. Although as a kid I loved all the Ziggy Stardust songs, this one was special. Maybe because of the great lyrics, instruments, or something else which I'm not aware of. I would always listen to this and marvel in its beauty. Anytime I listen to song I tear up a bit, as a reminder to my childhood and the amazing memories this song allowed me to have.

I did Blackstar and then Lazarus. It was 4am in the Maritimes in Canada. Not even 20 minutes later I heard that David passed away in the night. My heart broke. It was at only within that hr. I'm not a spiritual guy, but when he died....so did a part of me.

    R.i.p. David. I remember heard starman first when I was 12 y.o., in 1988. Got goosebumps even minutes after hearing this fantastic song. Asked school friend, to copy this song for me on an audio cassette. He did for me. I searched my room for all coins n money asked parents for some bucks. After counted about 50 bucks, I went 3 miles to media markt in germany and bought cheapest portable audio cassette player / Walkman. Rest of money enough for an ice cream. Then, I surely played n heared several hundred times this song, the only song, on the cassette. In bed before sleeping, doing homework, going skateboard, going for basketball, everywhere. Today, still have this old audio cassette n Walkman in storage room cellar in a box with old stuff, clothes, toys. I could give away all of this old stuff, except my starman audio cassette and the old walkman. It s one of my biggest treasures and David Bowie was a hero in my childhood. Through school, exams, first love, high school, drivers license, 8 years in german army, I used to hear starman and this old cassette, until Mp3 n CDs conquered the music. And here still it is, the one n only David Bowie audio cassette with starman, So many good memories when I see this 36 y.o. cassette n walkman. I m sad, I never couldn't see n visit David Bowie in live concert, but he n his music will stay forever and will be part of my life forever. Cause of you David, I ve started playing guitar being 14 y.o. The only thing I can say today is - ty David for your music, your person and all the things you did for us.

    Lyrics
    Didn't know what time it was the lights were low
    I leaned back on my radio
    Some cat was layin down some rock n roll lotta soul, he said
    Then the loud sound did seem to fade
    Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
    That weren't no DJ that was hazy cosmic jive
    There's a starman waiting in the sky
    He'd like to come and meet us
    But he thinks he'd blow our minds
    There's a starman waiting in the sky
    He's told us not to blow it
    Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
    He told me:
    Let the children lose it
    Let the children use it
    Let all the children boogie
    I had to phone someone so I picked on you
    Hey, that's far out so you heard him too!
    Switch on the tv we may pick him up on channel two
    Look out your window I can see his light
    If we can sparkle he may land tonight
    Don't tell your poppa or hell get us locked up in fright
    There's a starman waiting in the sky
    He'd like to come and meet us
    But he thinks he'd blow our minds
    There's a starman waiting in the sky
    He's told us not to blow it
    Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
    He told me:
    Let the children lose it
    Let the children use it
    Let all the children boogie
    Starman waiting in the sky
    He'd like to come and meet us
    But he thinks he'd blow our minds
    There's a starman waiting in the sky
    He's told us not to blow it
    Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
    He told me:
    Let the children lose it
    Let the children use it
    Let all the children boogie

    Wonderful artist. So imaginative and ahead of his time. He completely ruled the 70s and 80s with an impressive string of hit singles. All very different with a distinct character. He got all of them right. I heard all of them on the radio back then and I remember being especially impressed with this one. Could well be an all time favourite.

      if you honestly believe someone wouldnt make it to heaven because of a way they were born, then you need to re-read the bible because you missed the bigger point of it
      ...it preaches love, acceptance, amd forgiveness above all else; love thy neighbor

    Didn't know what time it was and the lights were low
    I leaned back on my radio
    Some cat was layin' down some get it on rock 'n' roll, he said
    Then the loud sound did seem to fade
    Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase haze
    That weren't no D.J. that was hazy cosmic jive
    There's a starman waiting in the sky
    He'd like to come and meet us
    But he thinks he'd blow our minds
    There's a starman waiting in the sky
    He's told us not to blow it
    Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
    He told me:
    Let the children lose it
    Let the children use it
    Let all the children boogie
    I had to phone someone so I picked on you
    Hey, that's far out so you heard him too
    Switch on the TV we may pick him up on channel two
    Look out your window I can see his light
    If we can sparkle he may land tonight
    Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright
