David Bowie - favourite song?

[Flingingmelon]

Not an easy one, my mind keeps changing. Right now I'm going for Life On Mars.

Anyone else?

[DoreenLethal]

So hard.

Changes as it was the first Bowie song we got slightly tipsy to.

Ashes to Ashes for the people I was around at the time [schooldays]

Queen Bitch for the video - those boots.

I am totally and utterly gutted today. ALL my friends are Bowie fans. It's heartbreaking, and we are all devastated.

[Inkanta]

Shocking news to wake up to this morning. He's just brought out a new album but has had cancer for a couple of years. Must have wanted to keep it secret.

I'm a big David Bowie fan -

Heroes
Lets Dance
Ashes to Ashes
Stay ..

[OurBlanche]

Whole Albums rather than a single song.

Man Who Sold the World
Station to Station

[TheoriginalLEM]

man who sold the world

ground control to major tom

[fourmummy]

Wild is the wind

[LettuceLaughton]

I honestly couldn't choose. So, so much amazing material.

[Inkanta]

fourmummy

Yes - Wild is the Wind.

[JimmyGreavesMoustache]

so many
Boys Keep Swinging
Queen Bitch
Heroes
and I have a very soft spot for As The World Falls Down

[OurBlanche]

Yes, if 1 song, Wild is the Wind

[mupperoon]

Another vote for Ashes to Ashes. I love his 70s stuff but that song just encapsulates the strangeness of him, and indeed the 80s.

[Gozogozo]

Wild Is The Wind
Under Pressure
Life On Mars
Little China Girl
This Is Not America
Heroes
++++

It would actually be easier to list the very few that I DIDN'T really love.

[PseudoBadger]

Changes

[Flingingmelon]

There's so many I don't even know. My most musculature influenced period was when he was releasing his creatively questionable stuff or when he wasn't releasing anything, so I only know his more popular stuff.

Going to use this thread to educate myself

[Flingingmelon]

Musculature? 'Musically' please auto correct!

[needygonzales]

Prettiest Star, I just love it

[Iwonderif]

Let's dance.

I'd like to say RIP however resting in peace for such a legend seems not quite right. I'd like to think of him and all the greats gone before him having a right old session wherever they may be. Being free from pain and suffering is what's most important.

[MilkTwoSugarsThanks]

Ashes to Ashes.

Ooh, no Changes...

..but I really loved Let's Dance too.

Space Oddity is still brilliant.

[zippyswife]

Just can't pick one...
Young Americans
Heroes
Absolute beginners.
Can't believe he's gone.

[SoftBlocks]

So many I can't chose just one.

Life on Mars
Heroes
Space Oddity
Ashes to Ashes
And many many more...

Made such an impact on my little brain when I first heard them and I've loved them ever since.

[OurBlanche]

Odd isn't it? To like a cover song, when he wrote such beautiful songs.

But I always looked for the covers on each album. He interpreted so well.

[TondelayaDellaVentamiglia]

The Jean Genie and Suffragette City
...up so loud the car windows rattle.

so many others though

[OurBlanche]

It's love back to front and no sides

Psychodelicate Girls and Little Metal Faced Boys all over the world will cry today

[M48294Y]

Queen Bitch, Young Americans, Heroes, Breaking Glass, Star Man ... there's just too many!

[MumOnTheRunCatchingUp]

Blue jean
Young Americans
And ( weirdly I added this last night to my running playlist)

Modern love..... My all time fave

RIP david

[MumOnTheRunCatchingUp]

And loved the video with mick Jagger for 'dancing in the streets'
