How appropriate.

Off the top of my head:

1. Station to Station
2. Ashes to Ashes
3. Sound and Vision
4. Look Back in Anger
5. Five Years

Falling down is my favorite David Bowie song. Of course David didn't sing that song himself but he's somewhat related imho.

[mrsmaalox]

I'll put down "Changes", but I'll have to keep coming back to edit as I think of songs.

1. Changes
2. Cat People
3. Modern Love
4. Young Americans
5. Fame---has one of the coolest opening riffs ever

I enjoyed the use of Queen Bitch at the end of The Life Aquatic, along with all the acoustic Portugese covers.

[ohmwrecker]

Rebel Rebel
Queen Bitch
Moonage Daydream
Width Of A Circle
Always Crashing In The Same Car
Scary Monsters

China Girl is an Iggy Pop song and is much better than the Bowie version.

[ohmwrecker]

It Ain't Easy is also a cover.

When Bowie, at prime knocks on Crosby's door and they go back & forth over drums & peace.

He does a great job sharing the lead vocals on "Comfortably Numb" with David Gilmore and Richard Wright, as a guest singer on Gilmore's 2006 DVD "Remember That Night" concert at the Albert Hall.
If any of you fans have have never seen it, you owe it to yourself to do so.

#1 would be Changes by default, cliche as it sounds. I would say say Under Pressure after that because Queen is GOAT in my book.

I like that you included Ziggy Stardust though

[Wild Cobra]

I can't think of a single song of his I like.

[leemajors]

Can't really say on singles, but Low is probably my favorite album of his.

[JudynTX]

Don't take this as a compliment, but that made me laugh out loud.

You're a sensitive little guy. I'm not attacking you. I'm just informing you that nobody cares that you've never heard of David Bowie in a thread about David Bowie. Stick to something you know about

[Amuseddaysleeper]

The best Bowie album is Scary Monsters, and his best Era was Station to Station - Scary Monsters.

Love his early 70's stuff, but Station to Station onward he took it to another level.

Agree completely. I think that stuff stands head and shoulders over the Ziggy/Aladdin Sane era.

My only beef is that occasionally the ambient pieces run on a little too long; the lack of those on Scary Monsters makes it his best imo

[RD2191]

I can't think of a single song of his I like.

[Oh, Gee!!]
