The mementos had been left by fans from all over the world. “Love without your heartbeat” as he sings the final song “Within You”.

Kanye West has hailed David Bowie as one of his “most important inspirations” in a tribute to the singer on Twitter.
Angie Bowie arrives at the start of the latest series of Celebrity Big Brother at Elstree Studios, Borehamwood.
“From the time I saw his Ziggy Stardust concert as a student, I thought he was a brilliant artist and an exciting and interesting human being”, Blair said in a statement. Bowie seemed like a joke.
On Bowie’s illness, Ure said: “I think people within the industry had heard rumours about cancer, we’d heard rumours about him not being well”. The tour came back to Nashville in February of 1973; this time, Bowie played the War Memorial Auditorium. I wasn’t, however, prepared for it. He was an extraordinary man, full of love and life. He was a master of re-invention, who kept getting it right. The wonderful scene in A Knight’s Tale when a courtly Renaissance dance tune mutates into “Golden Years”.
A woman looks at shirts with a portrait of David Bowie, in London, Monday, Jan. 11, 2016. “The pants may change, but the actual words and subjects I’ve always chosen to write with are things to do with isolation, abandonment, fear and anxiety – all of the high points of one’s life”.
Ethan Dalton posted: “Shout out to the news lady on Heart who reported that David Cameron had died, she’s certainly living the dream”.
That didn’t last for long. The persona – the red-headed, eyeliner wearing Stardust – would become an enduring part of Bowie’s legacy, and a touchstone for the way entertainers packaged themselves for years to come. That song was my gateway drug into the wonderfully weird world of the Thin White Duke, and for that, and so many other reasons, it will always mean a lot to me.
As fierce and unsettling – and sometimes as handsome – as anything in Bowie’s one-of-a-kind catalog, “Blackstar” looks to jazz not for tunes or signifiers but for a proud sense of sonic freedom.

“I’ve got scars that can’t be seen”.
Heroes – undoubtedly one of the most inspirational songs ever to be released.
The big reveal in this song is what happened to Bowie’s legendary character Major Tom – now a junkie, strung out and drifting to the stars.
Facebook users can add a David Bowie -style flash to their profile picture in memory of the singer. It’s been a rough, meandering road at times, but the soundtrack has been so consistent, I can’t help but wonder if my father knew what he was doing when he ushered me into the world with Bowie lyrics.
Bowie is known worldwide not only for his musical talents but for reinventing the music industry and challenging the status quo. Beyond his status as a role model, the music he created offered sanctuary for many in its deep, abiding empathy.

“David Bowie was cool in the beginning, he was cool in the middle, and he was cool at the end”.
