I didn't realize the impact David Bowie had on my life until, suddenly, he was gone. My mom would rock me to sleep as a baby by singing "Young Americans". In elementary school, my dad played guitar in a cover band. During their rehearsals, I did my homework on a couch and listened to countless hours of "Suffragette City" and "Ziggy Stardust". Labyrinth is still one of my favorite movies of all time. I spent my teenage years with my BFF (one of the biggest Bowie fans I know) riding around and listening to David Bowie. The opening piano notes to "Life on Mars?" still give me chills.
Thank you, Mr. Jones, for making up a huge portion of the soundtrack of my life.
