Bowie

Without David Bowie, there never would have been a Miss Roxy Rose. I would have probably kept on walking by myself, being quiet me. But I got introduced to his music, which led to learning all about that other world next door, and what a different world it was. What a lot of fun it was. I grew a whole new me, who felt more like the real me--I was much more comfortable in my skin and so surprised how many people wanted to see the world like I did. The only other time I felt like that was falling into LJ and fanfic--that feeling like finding home. Rest in peace, sir--you changed the world.

Isn't that true, and lovely. He showed the weird kids (of which I was one) that weird is okay and awesome and creative. He laid a path for the gay, bi and trans kids. And he expanded the world.

He really did. Unless you lived it, there's no way to explain what a massive influence he was! I think just by existing, he saved a lot of kids.
