I saw his last full show at Hurricane 2004. It was amazing. We didn't have smartphones, our mobile phones were turned off for the weekend to have enough juice for emergency calls. So when the news came through the next morning, we were completely shocked and on edge because it so slowly came together piece by piece, and we didn't know if he would live.

Every body loves and respects Bowie's work what a genius of a man he was I listen to his music every day

To have lost somebody youve had that sort of experience with must be hard. Nice memory from ricky and a shame it was davids last perf.

One of the best audio experiences I think I've ever had was watching The Martian, (which incidentally, Chiwatel was in), at the local IMAX when Bowie's 'Starman' started playing. The sound was breathtaking and took listening to that song to another level.

"I was almost famous" love it, self-aware 😁

Man, I'm getting emotional listening to Rick's story about the magic of David Bowie.

Ricky Gervais used to be in a band called Seona Dancing. I remember them because my friend was a huge Bowie fan. The group did okay, but they had one major issue. They were too much like Bowie for Bowie fans and too much like Bowie for people who didn't like Bowie. The influence was clear as day. Their biggest hit was Bitter Heart which is not only brilliant but Ricky sounded a lot like his hero. They had a massive hit in the Philipines with their debut record 'More To Lose' which was seen as a kind of theme for youthful revolution. If you see pictures of Ricky back in the day he was a proper new wave pretty boy.

I'm all for that. Great story, Ricky's touched, David Bowie was one of the greatest modern artist. But are we all just gonna ignore that completely randomly, Salman Rushdie is there too?!

It's nice to finally see Ricky Gervais having an emotional moment! He's always rude jokes & all with no boundaries but I'm glad I finally got to see him being a humble human for a second.

Ricky definitely has a way with a story. Fantastic!

What a lovely and warm story

Bowie, you'll always be in my heart. Thanks for the early and charming goofy stuff then something like Black Country Rock, in fact the whole of MWSW lp and every other that I don't listen to as much as I kind of should. Everything you did was so calming yet angry at the point of principle and your journey took many of us with you. I'm sorry but I do believe in angels.

You can see Ricky getting upset, it's always sad to lose a friend.

Does dearest Ricky have time to enjoy his life ? He works so hard. 🥰

Brilliant

Wow - WHAT. A. STORY!!

Pure class 😊

It was a sad day for me when I heard David Bowie passed away. I heard him the first time when I was around 17 in 1975... and the only live concert I ever took the time to go to was that of David Bowie somewhere in 1984 (I'm not sure) in Offenbach, Germany.

Was that the gig Steve Merchant wasn't invited to and got upset on XFM?

Thanks for posting.

Fantastic!

Love you, Rick! :)

Apparently his last interview was the Extras interview as well.

Looks like Mr. Bowie had a similar flare to Keanue Reeves

Watched the Extras very recently, did not expect to be so good. Office was awesome but enjoyed this exactly the same. Became quite a fan of ricky and stephen. Was thinking to start Derek, any opinions? First episode was ok I guess

I’ve always respected how Bowie kept his illness private and only between his closest family and friends. He was a man about it. It just completely tarnishes a career when celebrities live their life like an open wound in their dying days.

Origins of music unevidenced. Except it is gift to humanity from God the Creator. Music continues in heaven. Music discontinues in hell. Jesus Christ came from heaven to earth for one purpose only - to die on cross for remissions of pre-existing sins of every single person and to resurrect. Jesus Christ providing forgiveness from pre-existing sins for every single person, salvation from eternity in hell and free entry to eternity in heaven for all who repent of sins in Jesus Christ. Other side of death is eternity. Eternity in hell where there is no music but wailing and gnashing of teeth. Or eternity in heaven through Jesus Christ and enjoy heavenly music for free. Penalty of pre-existing sins already paid by Jesus Christ on The Cross. Accept HIM. Repent sins in Jesus Christ name. Be saved from eternal hell. Enter heaven through Jesus and enjoy music.
