What's your favourite David Bowie song?
Since it's his birthday today I thought I'd start a Bowie thread.
He's written so many brilliant songs but Five Years is probably my favourite... |

Space Oddity takes some beating. Heroes. Ziggy Stardust is fantastic. It's a bloody difficult choice to make..
His best performance, beyond doubt, is ... How he kept it together through this i do not know. |

Re: What's your favourite David Bowie song?
^ I can't pick a favourite, it's impossible!
It's far easier picking some of his worst... 'Scream Like a Baby', anyone? Bloody dreadful song! |

Re: What's your favourite David Bowie song?
Not really thought much of Bowie's output after 1980-81, but prior to that there is simply too much quality to pin down to one favourite.
Although originally a Jacques Brel song, I always loved Bowie's version of 'Amsterdam' and 'Five years' was always a fave of mine. Space Oddity will always be a classic. Heroes will always be immense. Life on Mars. Starman. Ashes to Ashes. Scary Monsters... Too many to mention really. |

Re: What's your favourite David Bowie song?
I agree as well it is too hard to pick a favourite. I simply don't think I could. I'd probably give a different answer for every time I was asked.
Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes, Rock and Roll suicide.... I'm not always as keen on the 80's stuff but - China Girl is sooooooo sexy. |

The Laughing Gnome was probably the first Bowie song I heard, I think one of my brothers bought the single.

Gutted, really gutted.
My poor Mum's probably in pieces, reminiscing - she's been texting me, she was quite a fan. |

I don't normally get upset about the deaths of popstars/celebrities but this is up there with Freddie Mercury, John Lennon and Elvis Presley

Re: What's your favourite David Bowie song?
Never was a big Bowie fan though lots of boys at my public school were . I think my favourites were Space oddity, Oh you pretty things,life on Mars and Star man.
I never bought a Bowie single or album. |

Re: What's your favourite David Bowie song?
I've never really delved deeply into his music or become a fan like my sister did and have only really heard his main songs (oh and the Laughing Gnome lol), but even so, it is still quite a shock when a such a music legend like him goes, I turned on the radio and heard people paying tribute to him before hearing the news actually confirmed and thought 'surely not', he only released his latest album last Friday, but turns out he had known for a while and the album was deliberately planned as a departing gift to his fans, really poignant
My favourite of his has always been Heroes though, such an amazing song and I love this performance from Glastonbury 2000 |

Ha! You clearly need to smell the coffee and wake up, Betty - you must've been distracted by Bowie in his tights
