Legendary singer David Bowie has died at the age of 69 after battling cancer in secret for 18 months.
The star, who released a new album last week, was known as the creator of glam rock and was one of the most successful artists of the 20th century.
During his illness, which was not made public until his death yesterday, he continued to record and last week he appeared in a haunting video which contained the lyrics 'I'm in heaven' as he writhed around on a hospital bed.
Following Bowie's death a flood of celebrities and other public figures such as politicians and even the Archbishop of Canterbury rushed to pay tribute to the impact he had on the cultural landscape of his era.
