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. He had an array of fantastic producers helping him, and they each deserve a special mention in their own right. I thought it would be fun to rankContinue reading “David Bowie Producers Ranked”

“Moonage Daydream” Is Fantastic
Usually I hold my verdict until the end of the review, but since this will just be a quick one I’ll come outright and say it – “Moonage Daydream” blew me away. Brett Morgen managed to make a cinematic experience rather than a documentary, and any expectations I had going in were smashed. It’s suchContinue reading ““Moonage Daydream” Is Fantastic”
David Bowie – Closing Tracks Ranked
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. Same rules apply as in the “Opening Tracks Ranked” list – I’ll definitely be looking at the qualityContinue reading “David Bowie – Closing Tracks Ranked”
50 Underrated David Bowie Songs
I thought I’d just have a bit of fun with this one – I’ve made far too many lists about David Bowie, and I promise I’ll run out soon!

What I learned from re-listening to David Bowie’s entire discography
I’ve done a more than a few Bowie lists on by blog, so it’s no surprise that I absolutely bloody love the man. He was a beautiful soul, with creativity and flair oozing out of every artistic endeavour, and hardly a day goes by where I feel saddened by his tragic passing a few yearsContinue reading “What I learned from re-listening to David Bowie’s entire discography”
“Blackstar” – Songs Ranked
When “The Next Day” hit the scene in 2013, everyone was glad that Bowie had made his return – but it had hardly made a dent in the pop culture landscape. Bowie needed to go bigger and better for his last album, and against all odds he produced one of the greatest albums of allContinue reading ““Blackstar” – Songs Ranked”
“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”
“Heathen” Songs Ranked
This album was the start of Bowie’s twilight years – the subject matter had become quite moody and melancholic, and somehow you get the feeling that Bowie knew his time was up on this planet. Does that make this album dreary and boring? Absolutely not. This is a huge breath of fresh air after aContinue reading ““Heathen” Songs Ranked”
“Lodger” Songs Ranked
Probably my least favourite album from the “Berlin Trilogy”, but that doesn’t mean it lacks in quality – in fact, on a good day this is probably a top 10 album of Bowie’s. How would I rank all of the tracks? You can check out some of my other Bowie lists below: Meh 10 –Continue reading ““Lodger” Songs Ranked”
