Following his death, Tony Visconti, Bowie's longtime friend, said that the singer thought he still had a few more months to live.
"Obviously, if he's excited about doing his next album, he must've thought he had a few more months. So the end must've been very rapid. I'm not privy to it. I don't know exactly, but he must've taken ill very quickly..." said Visconti.
