Bowie Albums – Overrated / Underrated

I haven’t counted, but if I had to guess I’d say Bowie lists are my most common blog post – needless to say, I love the man’s entire discography to bits! I’ll look through all of his major albums and judge them against the general public’s and Bowie fanbase’s opinion, deciding whether the album inContinue reading “Bowie Albums – Overrated / Underrated”

Bowie Albums Ranked by Lyrics

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?

David Bowie Producers Ranked

David Bowie was a true genius, and arguably the greatest artist of our time. As good as he was, though, he didn’t do it all by himself.

David Bowie – Closing Tracks Ranked

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. I wasn’t really planning on giving any other artist the same treatment, butContinue reading “David Bowie – Opening Tracks Ranked”

50 Underrated David Bowie Songs

“Station To Station” Songs Ranked

This is easily one of my favourite albums of all time (probably top 3), and it’s definitely the best Bowie record in my eyes. All 6 songs are just sublime, but how would I rank them?
