The dude has like the largest library of music ever and for me, he's probably top 3 favorite artist of all time so 5 is definitely a challenge. First song at my wedding was "Lets Dance". lol Like, I'm not sure anyone has produced better back to back albums that were as good as Honky Dory and Ziggy Stardust. They are brilliant, cover to cover, some the of the greatest songs ever written. I'll give this a swing but this definitely changes w/ mood, time and situations but, here is my attempt, the first might be obvious mainstream picks but there is a reason they are classics: Is Under Pressure allowed? It might be the greatest song ever written. lol Ziggy Stardust - the way the guitars is attacked in that song, with the lyrics and the story. It's just an unreal song, one of my favorites to play on the guitar as well. It's start on a fun melodic beautiful strum and then goes into a just straight rock n roll jam when he starts "So where were the spiders!". Heroes - the first time I heard Heroes, I remember being like, what is this, it unreal good and so different. I can listen to this beat for an entire day, and then he drops some of the most powerful lyrics ever written. Changes - the song that made me fall in love w/ Bowie. Lyrically? Does it get better? That piano w/ the violin in that song is just gorgeous. Sound and Vision - it just makes me happy, instantly. Bad mode? Put on Sound and Vision, insta happy. Every instrument in that song sounds so good. Rebel Rebel - again, that guitar intro. The groove to that song, just ridiculous. Honorable mentions: Moonage Daydream Life on Mars Suffragette City All the Young Dudes Fame TVC15 Starman Wow, that was impossible and I hate it. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lith Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Top 5 Bowie songs? This should be interesting. Had to think really hard not to have all 5 be from Ziggy Stardust (always in the discussion of my top albums of all time) but here goes, in no particular order:Soul LoveStarmanRebel RebelYoung AmericansChangesSpecial mention for Under Pressure, his collaboration with Freddie Mercury, but it doesn’t make the list since it’s not just a Bowie song. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, like I said, Hunky Dory to Ziggy Stardust, there isnt a single track that isnt an all time great song. Like it's so incredibly hard to leave songs like; Oh You Pretty Things, Queen Bitch, 5 years, Rock N Suicide like how can you not be moved when he starts screaming, you're not alone! Dude was in the zone there for a few years, everything he wrote was just brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy 2 Times Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 @JiFapono you totally nailed it that his top 5-100 changes with mood. Currently my top 5 has to be: Ziggy Queen Bitch Rock n Roll Suicide Sound and Vision (probably my favorite) Life on Mars 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lith Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Under Pressure should be allowed. What about The Little Drummer Boy with Bing Crosby. By far my favorite version of that song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that time, Seven, was the greatest song ever written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lith Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Allowed. I can't imagine it's in your top 5 though. Top 5 Christmas songs, yes. Top 5 Bowie,no. Not even in the discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
