Listen to Jarvis Cocker's two hour David Bowie tribute
Jarvis Cocker has paid tribute to David Bowie with a two-hour show dedicated to the icon's life and music.
The tribute was part of the Pulp frontman's BBC Radio 6 Music Sunday Service show. Speaking last week following the news of Bowie's death, Cocker described him as a "lighthouse": "I think people feel it very personally, maybe more than with a lot of people who have passed away, because he was very important in how people grew up."
As well as alternate and demo versions of Bowie's tracks, Cocker also played a few archive interviews with the iconic rule breaker.
Listen to the show on the BBC website.
Bowie passed away 10 January following an 18-month battle with cancer shortly after his 69th birthday and the release of 25th studio album Blackstar.
Other tributes over the weekend include a jazzy parade through New Orleans led by Arcade Fire, and a new lightning bolt-shaped constellaton.
