What a voice and what style he had! Oh, I feel so sad

This story from Ricky Gervais put a smile on my face though:
“A few years later I emailed David on his 57th birthday. It read: ‘57???? Isn’t it about time you got a proper job? Ricky Gervais, 42, Comedian.’ He replied: ‘I have a proper job. David Bowie, 57, Rock God.’
