I don't know why, but I liked the song 'Blue Jean' the first time I heard it. It was catchy. I still dig it.

Far to many good tracks to list but my favourite album is "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars".
Had to give its full name as even that's cool smile

Fav album Diamond Dogs or maybe Aladdin Sane.
Fav Song probably Life on Mars but there are so many to choose from Young Americans Diamond dogs and ashole lot more. Although I much prefer his pre 80's stuff, I cant stand the "scary monsters super freaks" era.

China girl. My first girlfriend ever was a Bowie fan. She loved that song and so did I. Ironically she wasn't Chinese, but a typical Swedish blond beauty . biggrin

Oh yes he did. He was fantastic. Did you ever see his performance in the 80's film "Cat People"?

I used to own a box set by Bowie that had a version of "Heroes" sung in German. I kick myself for trading it in now. That was before the era of cd burners and mp3. All the songs listed so far are great.
