Favorite songs by him?


I'd say The Bewlay Brothers, Ashes to Ashes, Life on Mars, Golden Years, Valentine's Day and Changes are mine.

My little china girl
You shouldn't mess with me
I'll ruin everything you are
I'll give you television
I'll give you eyes of blue
I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world

Changes, Let's Dance, and the "Major Tom to ground control" song. Sorry I don't know the name of it.

It’s called Space Oddity

One of my favourites, and one of his most unique offerings (which *really* means something with an eclectic output like Bowie's) has long been Please, Mr. Gravedigger. It's a song which rides on pure poetry and atmosphere. He doesn't let anybody tell him what music should sound like and just does his own thing. So, that's one that I've always really loved.

Suffragette City is a driving rock-n-roller, as is Rebel, Rebel.

I love his nasty cover of the Pixie's Cactus, too. Great stuff.

Other favourites:

Everyone Says Hi
Saviour Machine
All the Madmen
Ziggy Stardust
Starman
Blackstar

We once had a MC member named after that song.
