Just as Bowie, Zeppelin, etc., became rock stars by remaking themselves in the image of the California girls, the Go-Gos became rock stars by pretending to be the Buzzcocks and the Sex Pistols. Jane Wiedlin always said her biggest influence was growing up in L.A. as a Bowie girl.

Rob Sheffield

One of my biggest influences of all time would be somebody like Tom Waits. David Bowie is another huge influence. I'm also a big fan of St. Vincent and Leslie Feist.

Hozier

David Bowie is my biggest inspiration. Pretty much the only thing that stayed the same with Bowie was his eyes. Everything else constantly changed, from his sexuality to his songs.

Lil Peep

Bobby Cox had the biggest influence in my career and probably the second- or third-biggest influence in my life.

Tom Glavine

Television and comic books are, and continue to be, probably the biggest influence in my life. It's the biggest influence on everybody's life.

Gene Simmons

Bowie's been a huge influence on me.

Adam Lambert

R Stevie Moore was obviously a huge influence and is still a very big influence in my life.

Ariel Pink

I was in L.A. with my wife in a restaurant, and I spotted my great hero David Bowie at another table. Of course I wasn't going to bother him. Then I felt a tap on my shoulder, and it was Bowie, and he squatted down to talk to me. David Bowie came down to my level - so gentlemanly.

Paul Young

The Grateful Dead were an influence on our music but they weren't by a long shot the biggest influence.

Jon Fishman

In my creative life, David Bowie is definitely an enormous influence on me, being one of rock's greatest shapeshifters.

Scott Weiland

My biggest mentor is myself because I've had to study, so that's been my biggest influence.

Brendan Rodgers

I didn't love David Bowie. Sure, I loved a lot of his songs, like everybody else, and, like everybody else, I had an incarnation of Bowie that I loved best - in my case, the solemn 'art-rock' Bowie of the late Seventies.

Tom Junod

Bowie is my dad's stage name, so I was never, ever called Zowie Bowie. The tabloids liked that because it rhymed.

Duncan Jones

David Bowie is such a big influence to me. Everything about him as a person is intriguing to me.

Leona Lewis

It takes a long time to find your own voice. Along the way, you imitate all the things that influence you - in my case Johnny Cash, Bowie, John Lydon.

Dave Gahan

Biggest influence is my parents. It's funny but my mom was the first one that allowed me to play tackle football. My dad was not ready to let me play yet. She definitely was the one who allowed me to do it. Obviously my dad taught me to throw and be a quarterback.
