Whenever I hear his music, I’m a teenager again, taking my first taste of something ungendered, transgressive. At a crucial moment in my adolescence, David Bowie showed me that masculinity wasn't the only way to attract girls and, for that, I thank him.

We are all
David Bowie's children. He inspired us and changed our lives. Love, gratitude and respect always for him and his work. Our truest condolences and sympathy to his family. Neil and Chris x (Pet Shop Boys)
"John and David respected each other," Ono wrote. "They were well matched in intellect and talent. As John and I had very few friends, we felt David was as close as family." - Yoko Ono
"David Bowie was one of the greatest artists of all time. I feel privileged that I ever got to know him. He gave Devo his blessing. He remained true to his art until the end like I wanted so badly for us to do." - Gerald V. Casale/DEVO
