The music world lost one of its finest artists today as the death of David Bowie was announced late Sunday night. Bowie, who had been battling cancer for the last 18 months, had just released his final album, Black Star, on Jan. 8, 2016. Here’s what people are saying around Twitter:
If you're ever sad, just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
