David Bowie wasn't just a musician, but a magician who remoulded popular culture in spectacular fashion. An outrageous, fearless and innovative artist, Bowie shook the world of music with his enigmatic style and groundbreaking performances, leading to worldwide stardom and unparalleled influence. Did you know this about the Starman? Bowie has a spider named after him - "Heteropoda davidbowie", discovered in 2008, which is a homage to his support for the often underappreciated creatures.
And speaking of stars, Bowie's music videos were more like snippets of cosmic dances from the cinematic universe. 'Ziggy Stardust - the audacious alter ego - allowed him to flit through galaxies of glam rock, whilst 'Heroes' was an anthem for the underdog, gracefully dissolving Cold War boundaries. 'Space Oddity', with its astronaut protagonist Major Tom marooned in the cosmos, took viewers on a celestial journey. Later in his career, 'Ashes To Ashes' was a return to Major Tom, and a surreal, colourful escapade - it was the most expensive video made at the time. His ability to consistently push boundaries and shape-shift across various musical and visual styles, underpins his legacy as a visionary artist unmatched in his creative journey.
