2016 - It Sucked... Mostly

What a year! We said goodbye to an era of idols - David Bowie, Prince, Carrie Fisher and her mum!

Let's start with David Bowie, the creator of hits like Space Oddity. David was born in Brixton in South London on January 8, 1947. His first hit was "Space oddity" in 1969. He later wrote "Fame" with Carlos Alomar and John Lennon, which was his first American No. 1 in 1947.

Next Carrie Fisher, who was Princess Leia in the 1977 movie. She was born on October 21 1956 in Los Angeles, California. Her role as Princess Leia fired her into popularity in 1977. She has also wrote a hit book 1987 called Postcards from edge. Her mum died the day after planning her funeral.

Many more died too, but we just don't have enough time to list more! Others include Sir Terry Wogan and George Micheal. Our next blog will be more optimistic, but 2016 will never be forgotten due to so many fallen legends.
