David Bowie is being tenderly remembered where he was born in Brixton – and across the world

David Bowie was born as David Jones on Stansfield Road, Brixton, London on January 8, 1947.

He lived there with his parents in until he was six years old before moving down the road to Beckenham.

His mum Margaret Mary Peggy Jones worked as an usherette at the local cinema, which makes this tribute from the Ritzy even more touching.

Around the corner is a mural to the legend, which is also gathering more flowers and tributes…

His former home in Berlin is also receiving bouquets…

His genius lyrics are popping up all over the capital and various stations…
