I mean, he made many awesome albums after scary monsters, including some of his best songs. I'd personally rank the top 5 :
1) Tonight ( yeah I prefer it to let's dance, best song : https://youtu.be/ns2hmyP0mGY?si=Pq56Jf0_Ze53GzOJ )
2) Heathen (best song : https://youtu.be/bn2ES-WQQX4?si=9keCIE2z4oXuDFMq )
3) The Next Day (best song : https://youtu.be/S4R8HTIgHUU?si=jdaBf2K9lrtFZBfD )
4) Let's dance (best song : China girl)
5) Outside (best song : https://youtu.be/wASIzajHs7o?si=-LHGHWEnj-INeMxF )

I like some songs, but not the album as a whole. Pretty much goes for all of his post 80s stuff.

His brother and partly himself. He was always afraid that he was just as ill as his brother. Especially early days when his bro was diagnosed. Like any day it'd be him too.

It's definitely not bad and has its moments but a lot of the music sounds very much of its time like it came from ark music factory or something. I enjoy the wedding song, black tie white noise, jump they say, and the scott walker cover on it

never understood the hate for tonight
its a good sound, that mardi gras old mobster sitting and drinking by his friend's grave aesthetic that most of it has, especially the iggy pop songs (which lets be serious, bowie wrote in entirety in the first place)

Buddha of Suburbia, Outside and Earthling is one of his best three album streaks on his career.

My second favorite songs for each album, would be : Tonight (Blue jean) Lets Dance (Cat People) Outside (hallo spaceboy) Heathen (Slip away) The Next Day (Set the world on Fire)
>>126910246
Me neither, but I also dont get why most people seem to rank songs I don't particularly prefer higher, definitely prefer Heathen A LOT more than earthling, when Bowie did a collab with NIN. damn !, how I wish I could see what a Bowie collab with MCR would have been like.

Ziggy Stardust at 1 is very based. But for me this will be always my favourite song (and album) of his:

Very beautiful song, it's hard to rank top 10 Bowie songs, since the higher you get, they all just sound awesome, and the position keeps changing, but Ziggy is permanently on my top 10 songs. What would be your ranking of those songs ?

What would be your ranking of those songs ? I think both Time, and All the Madmen, are seriously underrated.

The James Murphy remix on Love Is Lost is really great stuff to put on a mixtape. Stairways of endless clapping
https://youtu.be/lyGO0IxAr4A?list=RDlyGO0IxAr4A

I agree with Heathen, beautiful song, that and "I Would Be Your Slave". Great understated post 9/11 album with Visconti returning. There's a visceral feeling of warmth and comfort on that record
