A few weeks ago, I picked my favourite lyric on every Bowie song. You can find that list here. But that got me thinking – how would I rank the albums based on their lyrical quality? Just to clarify, this is purely looking at the lyrics across the board, and has nothing to do withContinue reading “Bowie Albums Ranked by Lyrics”

EVERY David Bowie Song Ranked (Part One: 280-191)
Because I enjoyed ranking all of the Beatles’ songs so much, I decided to give Bowie’s discography a go – I’ll have to split this up into three parts, there’s just so many songs to choose from!

I knew Bowie’s openers were good, but the sheer quality of his album closers surprised me – while there aren’t as many “All-Time Greats” as in the “Openers” category, the majority of closing tracks are pretty outstanding.

David Bowie – Opening Tracks Ranked
A long time ago I ranked all of The Beatles’s opening songs, mainly just as a fun way of showing how the first song on the album is one of the most important and usually one of the strongest of the record.

“The Next Day” – Songs Ranked
After a tragic heart-attack on the “Reality” tour, the world wasn’t really sure if Bowie would ever return. There had been no news for a decade, and as far as anyone knew, Bowie’s days of music-making were long gone. Luckily for them, and the world at large, Bowie made a hugely unexpected return in 2013Continue reading ““The Next Day” – Songs Ranked”
“Reality” Songs Ranked
“Reality” is … fine. I’ve never really been a huge fan of this album, and to be honest my opinion barely changed with a couple of re-listens. There are definitely some great ones on here, don’t get me wrong, but there are just too many bland fillers for my liking. How would I rank thisContinue reading ““Reality” Songs Ranked”
