I'm not meaning to be a contrarian faggot or anything but

maybe its because they have never truly given their music a chance or they never truly appreciated it. its also a reminder they even made music.

>>61765449
I don't know, probably just curious kids that never gave the artist a chance. Among a number of other factors I'm not bothering to realise.

Or it's memelords jumping on the tribute bandwagon because it's current. #bowie #toosoon #fuckcancer

>>61765449
Fuck off you contrarian faggot

most people never really listened to his albums and just know him from his hit songs

>>61765449
the same reason people listen to music just because its new when there are thousands of years of music they have overlooked. people like being part of trends

I didn't "buy" it.
I mediafired the fuck out of it to know what all the fuss was about.

>>61765449

>tfw literally ran to the local record store to buy black star as is appeared and your post made me feel bad

>>61766191
'Thousands of years of music'

He doesn't need money anymore anyway.
Art should go to humanity cultural wealth after its creator dies and become free.

because that's how human beings work

let this be the first step in you realizing that humans are not rational in their actions

>tfw I've been on a huge bowie binge for weeks before he died
>now I feel like a pleb for listening to him now that it's trendy

>>61766614
The sad part is that we can't let anyone know we like Bowie anymore because plebs will and have ruined him after his death.

>>61766271
dude, i've never heard anybody make a joke like this before, you're so funny and original

Cunts only seem to remember the shit he did in the 60s and 70s never any of his actually good stuff from the 80s and some 90s.

because people love child abusers.

>>61765449
They get tonnes of press and nobody says a bad thing about them and people think "apparently he was a genius and I didn't really appreciate him enough" so they go and get a collection of their "great works".
People are very susceptible to hype and marketing.

>>61766757

First and only real answer of the whole thread

>>61767133
We haven't even had paper for as long as that. Especially not written music. Are you dense?

>>61767174
theres written music dating back as far as 100bc. it is not understood anymore but it exists. plus thousands of years of musical traditions, of course theyve changed but based in ideas present from ancient times.>>61766234
i mean thousands

>>61766614
>>61766641
o come on, blackstar leak was the first thing by bowie i heard apart from under pressure, heroes, space odditty and the man who sold the world (the songs) , and i don't feel remotely bad for loving the shit out of this album and going through his discography currently

>>61767350
If we don't understand it then how do we know it's music?

>>61765449
A lot of people in my generation grew up with bowies music. for many guys, this was the first time an influential male figure experimented with gender concepts. I was never a big fan but some of my friends even cried when they heard of his death. David Bowie meant quite a lot many people, even though they stopped following his output. Those are now revisiting his music.

>>61765449
I'm pretty much cut off from normalfag society by now, does every one and their mom like Bowie now that he's dead?
