Mick Jagger

« David's death came as a complete surprise, as did nearly everything else about him. I feel a huge gap now. »

Brian Eno

« I guess I thought he would live forever. I'm at a loss for words right now. Wow. »

Ozzy Osbourne

« The bejeweled remains of Major Tom lie dormant in a dust-coated spacesuit … It leaves me breathless. You must see it to believe it … He knew … He could see through it all. »

Annie Lennox
