The man, the legacy..

David Bowie.

The tributes and the

Brixton street party in

honour of him are amazing.

He continued

progressing with

the times

constantly and

still to his last

days left the

world with

music, and the

fact that it is

cool to be

different and

unique.

(Oh and just to

clarify, David Zowie

is very much alive!)
