This album is among Bowie’s top 5, don’t get what you’re talking about. ‘Five Years’, ‘Starman’, ‘Lady Stardust’ & ‘RnR Suicide’ are all top shelf. And despite I’m not a fan of classic guitar solos, I have a soft spot for the one in ‘Moonage Daydream’. Mick Ronson, what a man…

Yeah what Johnny said. Scary Monsters is easily top 4, maybe even 3

Despite Ashes to Ashes probably being my favorite song of his, I’m somehow not completely in terms with Scary Monsters.

This is the most positive reception to a Top 10 list that I've gotten in a while. Maybe ever.

this is one of those albums you like casually at first and then return a decade later and realize it’s one of the GOATs. Every song fucks. Rock n Roll suicide has one of the greatest builds in songwriting history
