Tunaboy45: Sputnik's Favourite Bowie Songs

Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Hope it doesn't come off as too gimmicky.
DoofusWainwright 01.17.16	Good idea, I'll stick to my list picks - Five Years, Always Crashing in the Same Car, Stay Decent picks too
beefshoes 01.17.16	Sound and Vision!
JokineAugustus 01.17.16	Rock and Roll Suicide
Frippertronics 01.17.16	Teenage Wildlife Quicksand Heathen (The Rays)
laughingman22 01.17.16	Sound and Vision, Ziggy Stardust, Boys Keep Swinging
PrefrontalCortex 01.17.16	Five Years
wtferrothorn 01.17.16	Don't have much to chose from since I've only heard Hunky, Ziggy, Man Who Sold The World, and Blackstar, but I guess I'll go with "Moonage Daydream", "Lazarus", and "Quicksand"
PrefrontalCortex 01.17.16	Little wonder Blackstar
Frippertronics 01.17.16	yo you forgetting those last two of mine, tunaboi
Zorg 01.17.16	I think you forgot I'm Afraid of Americans.
insanedrexl1 01.17.16	Lady Grinning Soul Five Years Lazarus
MyNameIsPencil 01.17.16	does Dancing in the Street count?
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Thy will be done Fripp Zorg, you want me to put you on record with that?
DoofusWainwright 01.17.16	Already two of these didn't make my Top 101 Bowie songs, just goes to show how many classics he recorded and how people's opinions on his best vary And that's before the 'ironic/not ironic' votes for the Laughing Gnome, Dancing in the Street and Dance Magic Dance come in
MrSirLordGentleman 01.17.16	Heroes Moonage Daydream Five Years
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Dancing In The Street will be paired with the Tonight album pencil, I'll count it
DoofusWainwright 01.17.16	Which muppet will vote for Dance Magic Dance? Place your bet now...
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	or The Laughing Gnome?
Futures 01.17.16	Teenage wildlife
anarchistfish 01.17.16	heroes, changes, life on mars
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Look at that variety already.
Dylan620 01.17.16	"Space Oddity," "What in the World" and "Dollar Days" for me, but I say so having heard only a select few Bowie albums in full, so take my opinion with a grain of salt
MO 01.17.16	the song Subterraneans off the album Low is a fucking total gem and one of my favs from him
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	@Dylan620 No problems man, they're some good choices
MrSirLordGentleman 01.17.16	I love how people are picking such a big amount of different songs. It proves how good Bowie was
ArsMoriendi 01.17.16	Wild is the Wind is my favorite. lol Dancing in the Street is hilarious.
zakalwe 01.17.16	Cool! Heroes Life on Mars Rock n Roll Suicide
Zorg 01.17.16	You can put me on record saying that because it's one of his best songs.
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Dancing In The Street is magical Ars Nice choices zak! Yeah Zorg, it's a great song
hikingmetalpunk 01.17.16	life on mars starman sound and vision
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Honestly you could pick almost any song from Low and I wouldn't argue, one hell of an album.
Flugmorph 01.17.16	Space Oddity Heroes Changes im mainstream
Friday13th 01.17.16	"Space Oddity", "Life on Mars", and "Warszawa" from Low
ArsMoriendi 01.17.16	Wait you get 3 votes whoops. I choose "Heroes" and Station to Station's t/ts for my other 2.
tommygun 01.17.16	quicksand breaking glass ashes to ashes
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Ashes To Ashes would've probably been my fourth but with so many good songs it's difficult to choose.
SmersH 01.17.16	strangers when we meet word on a wing sons of the silent age
Tyler. 01.17.16	heroes starman ???
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	@SmersH three great deep cuts, nice one! @cheese13 come on man you can do it
Tyler. 01.17.16	i kinda want to throw blackout in there but idk man.
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Blackout is a great song for the nuttyness of the lyrics, you wanna claim it?
Tyler. 01.17.16	yolo
ArsMoriendi 01.17.16	List needs more Lodger tracks...
Frippertronics 01.17.16	then vote for one?
Torontonian 01.17.16	lets dance right here
Dylan620 01.17.16	@Ars "African Night Flight" prob would've been my fifth choice fwiw
XingKing 01.17.16	Stay Subterraneans Lady Stardust
ArsMoriendi 01.17.16	"then vote for one?" I used all 3 of my votes for songs I like more :/ Man I wish I could vote for 10 songs honestly XD
Frippertronics 01.17.16	then don't complain boiiii
altertide0 01.17.16	Subterraneans Neukoln Sound and Vision
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Lodger and Outside are two of the more underrated albums from his catalogue, not his best but pretty damn strong.
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Neukoln is where his time in Berlin really influenced his music, another good choice!
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	hehe Futures you have another 2 votes if you wanna use them
Dylan620 01.17.16	The wailing sax at the end of "Neukoln" is so amazing
DoofusWainwright 01.17.16	'Low' the most represented so far, perfect album
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	@Dylan620 Agreed, I love how you think it's over and then it just keeps coming back
JokineAugustus 01.17.16	So I had to think of 2 other songs, and I'm gonna have to go with Sound and Vision and Andy Warhol
DoofusWainwright 01.17.16	Feelin' real sad for 'The Bewlay Brothers', please someone pick it
YoYoMancuso 01.17.16	Moonage Daydream Space Oddity Watch That Man
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	I'm feeling sad for The Next Day, so many corkers on that album.
DoofusWainwright 01.17.16	YoYo - loving the vote for Watch That Man
Rowan5215 01.17.16	Teenage Wildlife Rock n Roll Suicide Sound and Vision
Royl123 01.17.16	Changes Space oddity The man who sold the world
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	Feeling REALLY sorry for The Next Day now
onionbubs 01.17.16	space oddity blackstar and i can't give everything away has really tugged at my onion heartstrings a lot lately.
Tunaboy45 01.17.16	The harmonica sample from A New Career is a nice touch
Frippertronics 01.17.16	Love is Lost don't care just put it on
theNateman 01.18.16	Heroes. That was my first Bowie song, and it's a fucking jam every time
CynicalComplex 01.18.16	Mmmm... Life on Mars, Young Americans, and Warszawa.
Lethean 01.18.16	subterraneans five years the man who sold the world
TwigTW 01.18.16	Always Crashing in the Same Car Heroes Station to Station
Snowdog808 01.18.16	"Suffragette City" "Aladdin Sane" "Moonage Daydream"
Parallels 01.18.16	Subterraneans Heroes Rebel Rebel
Titan 01.18.16	Modern Love Station To Station Space Oddity
JustinKing 01.18.16	Heroes, Always Crashing in the Same Car, and Five Years for me.
SCREAMorphine 01.18.16	Starman Probably one of my first musical memories
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	JustinKing - close to identical picks there
TheHamburgerman 01.18.16	Ziggy Stardust Life on Mars Velvet Goldmine Edit: changed Heroes to Velvet Goldmine
Rik VII 01.18.16	Starman, Lady Grinning Soul, and Rock n Roll Suicide.
e210013 01.18.16	Here we have a very good and complete list. Despite I like very much of most of these songs my votes go to: Space Oddity The Man Who Sold The World Warsawa These are three songs of three of my favourites albums of Bowie.
DustyTill 01.18.16	Life on Mars?
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	We're up to date!
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	Heroes winning no surprise there
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	Station To Station has had a boost, Sound and Vision is also doing well.
ExtinguishingTheSun 01.18.16	Heroes Starman Speed of Life
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	Consider it done
TheIntruder 01.18.16	Here are my choices: Station To station Heroes Space oddity
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	Didn't expect a Speed of Life vote, Low track list nearly complete
TwigTW 01.18.16	If we had 6 votes, Be My Wife would have made my list--picking just three songs was really hard.
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	Which Low track(s) do we need now?
TwigTW 01.18.16	Be My Wife A New Career in a New Town Art Decade Weeping Wall
MrSirLordGentleman 01.18.16	So... we could say Sputnik's favorite Bowie song is "Heroes"?
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	Yeah, followed by Space Oddity and Station to Station
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	Heroes is the ultimate statement, no surprise as to why so many people love it.
someguest 01.18.16	"Breaking Glass"
SharkTooth 01.18.16	I'm new to Bowie's material but my favorite has got to be either Lazarus or Heroes
Jethro42 01.18.16	Station to Station Life on Mars? Starman
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	I have a feeling Lazarus is going to be a fan favourite for years to come
Frippertronics 01.18.16	Velvet Goldmine was recorded during Ziggy, just a heads up
JokineAugustus 01.18.16	Only me for Andy Warhol is surprising. Thought that song was more loved than that
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	I wasn't sure whether to put it as Space Oddity since it was on the re-release of the single or Ziggy Fripp. Andy Warhol is a great track.
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	Andy Warhol and Song for Bob always came across as cute homage/in jokes, I'm not massively surprised they've been overlooked. The Bewlay Brothers not being here on the other hand is borderline criminal Soul Love missing out is another shocker
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	There isn't as much Hunky Dory as I would've expected in general to be honest.
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	Yeah, got a soft spot for Kooks too but I get it's not a big league tune Hunky Dory's greatest strength is in the overall vibe, not all that many of the songs are solid gold classics
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	I'm surprised the only song from Outside so far is Strangers When We Meet, album is full of great songs. Criminally overlooked doesn't begin to describe it.
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	Tuna it's a near classic that one - Hearts Filthy Lesson, I'm Deranged and The Motel wouldn't look out of place
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	All great songs, I Have Not Been To Oxford Town works well as some light relief in the middle of the album too.
Mephistopheles 01.18.16	Starman Heroes Neukoln
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	T/t is decent but works best with the intro leading into it
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	Yeah, the album may be a bit overlong but most if not all of the songs fit, shame we never got part 2 or 3.
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	Garson, Gabrels, Eno and Bowie was a classic combo yeah, a follow up would surely have been more interesting than Hours
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	Hours was pretty dull, it's just sad Bowie and Eno never worked again after that
Ebola 01.18.16	Cracked Actor from Aladdin Sane. Five Years is a very, very close second, for what it's worth.
DoofusWainwright 01.18.16	Ebola you get three votes, nice choice getting Cracked Actor on the list it's a sleazy classic
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	Ebola, you want me to put you down for Five Years as well? You do have 3 votes after all. EDIT- Doof beat me to it
Ebola 01.18.16	Oh my bad missed that we had 3 choices. Cracked Actor, 5 Years, and Drive-In Saturday
RadicalEd 01.18.16	Golden Years, Rock'n'Roll Suicide, Valentine's day
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	^ YES!!!!! Valentine's Day is one of my all time favoutites. Bowie's vocals convey the message of the song perfectly and that soaring melodic guitar work towards the end is fantastic.
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	run for the shadows, run for the shadows, run for the shadows in these golden years wop wop wop
Crawl 01.18.16	Changes
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	you have 3 votes man if you wanna give me another 2.
impoppy 01.18.16	Life On Mars for me. Was my introduction to him and just struck me to see the video at the time.
Tunaboy45 01.18.16	Yeah the video is definitely striking, creeped me out a bit as a kid.
Titan 01.18.16	so Heroes will be the clean winner....never would've thought it
Ebola 01.18.16	it's certainly a jarring chorus for a Bowie song to have; perhaps that's why it sticks out to me so much
Muisc4Life26 01.19.16	I would go with 23
Tyler. 01.19.16	glad to see blackout has so many votes
flalafell 01.19.16	got to go with "heroes", first bowie song I heard
ArsMoriendi 01.19.16	I don't know, did Mickey Mouse actually grow up a cow? lol
TheAristocrat96 01.19.16	Fame, Oh You Pretty Things, Moonage Daydream
Bromero 01.19.16	Sound And Vision for me!
granitenotebook 01.19.16	Heroes and Life On Mars, idk third
theNateman 01.19.16	Space Oddity and Lazarus for me too
Greem 01.19.16	Starman, Life on Mars, Always Crashing in the Same Car
eddie95 01.19.16	Count me for 3, 4, 10, 14, 22, 23 and Moss Garden from Heroes :)
DoofusWainwright 01.19.16	eddie you greedy
doomjitsu 01.19.16	Suffragette City all the way
NightProwler 01.19.16	"Heroes", Life On Mars? and Ziggy Stardust
virpi 01.19.16	sound and vision, heroes, little wonder
DinosaurJones 01.19.16	"Heroes," Changes and Life on Mars
Tunaboy45 01.19.16	eddie I've put you down for 3, 4 and Moss Garden. Drop a comment here or on my shoutbox if you want it changing.
dbizzles 01.19.16	Cat People from Let's Dance.
ciregno 01.19.16	sound and vision, ashes to ashes, black star
DoofusWainwright 01.19.16	Love is Lost got on the list thanks to the argument of a lack of votes...I know I too have run out of votes but The Bewlay Brothers has to make this list, have a heart and all that
Tunaboy45 01.19.16	okay I'll give you that one Doof
DoofusWainwright 01.19.16	Good stuff Tuna, has Life on Mars caught up with Heroes?
Tunaboy45 01.19.16	Life On Mars: 13 Heroes: 22 quite a bit to go
ArsMoriendi 01.19.16	Bewlay Brothers rules, good choice. Can I suggest Scream Like a Baby? Since it's my favorite on Scary Monsters and my 4th favorite Bowie track overall and this list somehow only has 2 songs from Scary Monsters on it despite being a beloved album on Sput.
Tunaboy45 01.19.16	Okay... THIS IS THE LAST TIME I'LL DO THIS but yeah ars I'll give you it since you're cool
evilford 01.19.16	station to station the jean genie lady stardust
enedwaith 01.19.16	the width of a circle
Tunaboy45 01.19.16	Done
enedwaith 01.19.16	yay ty
Tunaboy45 01.19.16	you have another 2 votes you know man
enedwaith 01.19.16	the man who sold the world & rebel rebel
Tunaboy45 01.19.16	Rebel Rebel has less votes than I would've anticipated.
dbizzles 01.20.16	Can't believe I'm the only one with Cat People. That song is the shit. Works especially well in Inglorious Basterds.
joshuahuntkc 01.20.16	Station to Station for me
CrazyDiamond7 01.20.16	Ziggy Stardust Space Oddity Warszawa I fought the urge to pick Heroes and threw a vote to Warszawa. Even though Heroes is one of my favorite songs ever, it's got a ton of votes already, and Warz is looking pretty underrated. I'd also like to see The Stars Are Out Tonight on the list. Also Under Pressure not beig on here is just wrong (unless people consider it more of a Queen song).
enedwaith 01.20.16	nobody else likes the width of a circle :(
oltnabrick 01.20.16	Modern Love
ArsMoriendi 01.20.16	"nobody else likes the width of a circle :(" It makes my top 10, but not my top 3.
Pheromone 01.20.16	Five Years, Time & The Bewlay Brothers
Pheromone 01.20.16	...fuk
Koris 01.20.16	Moss Garden :]
DoofusWainwright 01.20.16	Dross Garden
Pheromone 01.20.16	Can't believe no one said time smh
DoofusWainwright 01.20.16	'Time' should be up there yeah
crossparallel 01.20.16	Station to Station Blackout Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing (Reprise) - would the medley count as one song?
Fort23 01.20.16	urrr a rock n roll suicide
Judio! 01.20.16	"Space Oddity" all the way
Tunaboy45 01.20.16	Took a while but we're up to date again!
theNateman 01.20.16	Crazydiamond, I thought under pressure was a queen song, just featuring David Bowie
Ledgy 01.20.16	Cygnet Committee It's No Game (Both parts) Queen Bitch Thought I'd go for ones that aren't already up there.
evilford 01.20.16	props to the people who picked quicksand, that's towards the top on me list
Titan 01.20.16	no, props to arcade and oltna
Tunaboy45 01.20.16	Good choices Ledgy, added them to the list.
evilford 01.20.16	"no" you can't tell me who I do and don't props!
STOP SHOUTING! 01.20.16	up the hill backwards you feel so lonely you could die slow burn - props to me
Tunaboy45 01.20.16	Slow Burn is one of Bowie's best late career songs for sure.
Spec 01.21.16	Subterraneans probably. Haven't heard the entire discography though.
Tunaboy45 01.21.16	Added you to Subterraneans Spec
DoofusWainwright 01.21.16	Tuna do we have a Top 5 / Top 10 breaking away from the herd?
Tunaboy45 01.21.16	You mean what are the songs with the most votes? Or you mean you want me to make to make a separate list for the songs with the most votes?
DoofusWainwright 01.21.16	Just listing here is ok, was being to lazy to tally them myself :D
Tunaboy45 01.21.16	Oh right haha, I'll do a count at the end of the day and comment the highest voted songs. Obviously Heroes is #1.
evilford 01.21.16	I can't believe only ONE person has voted for Fame wtf
Minushuman24 01.21.16	Moonage Daydream, Station to Station, Sound and vision
Yotimi 01.21.16	Be my wife
ciregno 01.21.16	FAME is a DOPE song but BOWIE has a BUNCH of DOPE songs.
evilford 01.21.16	THAT is a VERY good POINT I FEEL the SAME way.
Tunaboy45 01.21.16	I think we've got nearly every song from Low now.
DoctorGreen 01.21.16	Andy Warhol, FAME and ziggy.
Dylan620 01.21.16	Only ones we're missing from Low are "A New Career in a New Town," "Art Decade" and "Weeping Wall"
Tunaboy45 01.21.16	Can't believe someone hasn't said A New Career yet.
TheSupernatural 01.22.16	Put me down for The Man Who Sold the World
STOP SHOUTING! 01.22.16	"Can't believe someone hasn't said A New Career yet." They have, it's in the post just above yours. Don't know how you missed it tbh.
Yazz_Flute 01.22.16	Life on Mars?, Station to Station, Warszawa, Stay, Heroes are probably my top five.
Yazz_Flute 01.22.16	As the World Falls Down deserves some love too actually I fucking love that song.
StKiyo 01.22.16	The Man Who Sold The World
ciregno 01.22.16	"I think we've got nearly every song from Low now." Tuna, that's cause it's his best album ;)
altertide0 01.22.16	like, easily
evilford 01.22.16	eh
Rik VII 01.22.16	"They have, it's in the post just above yours. Don't know how you missed it tbh." no dude, he just listed the Low songs that haven't been mentioned before. Noone has voted for "New Careed in a New Town" yet. Doesn't surprise me that much though, it's my least favorite on Low.
STOP SHOUTING! 01.22.16	oh now i feel stupid. can't believe 'the prettiest star' hasn't got any votes - i guess there's just so many great songs to choose from. the three least favourite bowie songs would be easier to choose.
DoofusWainwright 01.22.16	STOP - Bowie of all artists has just as many bad songs as good lol Most of his 80's solo and Tin Machine stuff is dubious, as is a lot of the pre Hunky Dory stuff plus some of the Earthling/Hours albums 1. The Pretty Things are Going to Hell 2. Try Some Buy Some 3. God Only Knows
Rik VII 01.23.16	The Prettiest Star is pretty cool, but I feel it's a little bit repitive compared to songs like Space Oddity. Least favorite Bowie song ... from what I know, definitely Skeletal Family.
STOP SHOUTING! 01.23.16	ha ha no 3 is a good song but he murdered it. ziggy, low and station2station are pretty consistent, but worst songs: it ain't easy, art decade, tvc15
Tunaboy45 01.23.16	TVC15 is amazing you take that back right now.
STOP SHOUTING! 01.23.16	not easy to pick a 'worst song' for ziggy and station2station albums!
Tunaboy45 01.23.16	That's very true, same for Low as well.
STOP SHOUTING! 01.23.16	more worst songs: heroes - secret life of arabia next day - if you can see me scary monsters - kingdom come
Tunaboy45 01.23.16	I'd probably agree with your pick for Heroes but still a great song. The rest of the album is just better.
DoofusWainwright 01.23.16	If You Can See Me is the dopest Next Day tune SHOUTING
Tunaboy45 01.23.16	If You Can See Me is a great song, not sure what my pick for worst would be to be honest. How Does The Grass grow, maybe? Possibly? Not sure.
NorthernSkylark 01.23.16	kooks
TwigTW 01.23.16	Worst: Across the Universe edit: If you throw a dart at side 2 of Never Let Me Down, blindfolded, you will surely hit another one.
Tunaboy45 01.23.16	Never Let Me Down is just miserable.
Yazz_Flute 01.23.16	Sense of Doubt is another one that deserves mention.
insomniac15 01.24.16	Station to Station, I'm Afraid of Americans, The Stars Are Out Tonight, Time Will Crawl (fuck those who think this song is shit), Blackstar, Warszawa, The Man Who Sold The World, Ziggy Stardust, Suffragette City, Diamond Dogs, Cracked Actor, Rebel Rebel, Heroes, Look Back In Anger, TVC 15 and Don't Look Down (this one is the best on Tonight, again fuck those who think it's shit) He has so many good songs though, can't list only a few of them.
Tunaboy45 01.24.16	which three would you like me to put you down for?
insomniac15 01.24.16	hmm - The Stars Are Out Tonight, I'm Afraid of Americans and Time Will Crawl. Thank you! :D
DoofusWainwright 01.24.16	Oh contraire Toad, think you're the first to vote Soul Love
Tunaboy45 01.24.16	Good choices Toad and insomniac!
NorthernSkylark 01.24.16	Kooks
Tunaboy45 01.24.16	Kooks
DoofusWainwright 01.24.16	Kooks?
DoofusWainwright 01.24.16	Candyman
Tunaboy45 01.24.16	Shining Star
bens 01.26.16	Wild is the wind Rock and roll suicide Quicksand
Tunaboy45 01.28.16	^ Just noticed your comment and updated the list
Frippertronics 01.28.16	Loving the Alien I'm Deranged Slip Away Shadow Man just do it tbh
Tunaboy45 01.29.16	I'm Deranged fits really well with lost highway.
Snake. 01.29.16	changes starman ziggy stardust
wwf 01.29.16	Lazarus is just about the only one of his that I absolutely love so far
Tunaboy45 01.29.16	You don't love any of his others?
wwf 01.29.16	It's not like I've listened to literally every one of his songs lmao I've listened to maybe twenty songs of his?
Tunaboy45 01.29.16	Check Station To Station, Outside, Heroes, Low, The Next Day, Hunky Dory and Earthling if you're feeling adventurous. You'll find some world beating tracks in there.
Sevengill 01.29.16	Suffragette City for me.
Brabiz 01.29.16	Ashes To Ashes is my favorite and always will be
hikingmetalpunk 01.30.16	respect, they named a knife after dude
MusicinaBox 01.31.16	Life On Mars? Space Oddity The Man Who Sold The World
CriticalCriticals 02.10.16	1. Starman 2. Five Years 3. Space Oddity
Tunaboy45 03.21.16	Noticed there'd been some comments since the last update, added them.
BigHans 03.21.16	Moonage Daydream hard
L4titudes 03.21.16	It honestly might be Lazarus now just cause it's fresh
Tunaboy45 03.21.16	@hans/yourgod you do get three, but I've added them
BigHans 03.21.16	Oh, well in that case Moonage Daydream hard Rebel Rebel Ziggy Stardust
