Rock_Steady Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Sarah cox, Radio 2 " it is with great honour to announce that, David Bowie is dead". with great honour? You can't prefix the death of someone with "great honour", you can play his music in honour of his death but not announce with honour surely?

-G- Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Sarah Cox is an idiot on the best of days. Why not the worst? I'm gutted, frankly. :-( Edited January 11, 2016 by -G- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I suspect Cox was just as shocked as we are, and simply mixed up her words. Human error, easily done when given the responsibility of announcing something like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus27 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Musical genius and a legend for sure. Odd that I was thinking about him and the song Ashes to Ashes as I was falling asleep last night only to be woken up by the radio this morning announcing his death. Very talented artist.

Wendy Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 What horrible news to receive today. RIP David Bowie He was the music of my youth. So glad I got to the brilliant V & A Exhibition of his works last year. A great loss. Just in shock and listening to the great artist all day.

JetSet Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Not a great fan, only have the one L.P of his "Station to Station", liked some of his earlier stuff though. A sad loss nonetheless, RIP David Bowie. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnH Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I saw him at the Isle of Wight festival ages ago, the Libertines cancelled as Pete Doherty was wasted as usual so the organisers moved the band between them and Bowie forward and decided to put the England Euro game on... needless to say England lost and Bowie had to come on to a crowd ofgrumpy football fans... I felt sorry for him, I'm sure it wasn't his best gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mondo 300 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I've never been the biggest Bowie fan, but he had acres of talent and inspired countless artists and musicians over the decades A truly sad loss to the world! And coming so soon after Lemmy's passing as well.... RIP, sir! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrnet Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 A great loss to music and art. RIP. Credit to the Beeb, 15 minute tribute on BBC news BBC1 tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 RIP David Bowie. I suspect Cox was just as shocked as we are, and simply mixed up her words. Human error, easily done when given the responsibility of announcing something like that. Yeah maybe but why would you say "great honour"? Surely she cannot be that stupid despite the possible pressure of announcing his death. Either way sad news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
