What is his best and what is his worst album?

What is his best and what is his worst album?

I like "Heroes" and Hunky Dory.

His 60s stuff is kind of annoying.

Worst - Blackstar

best: Hunky Dory
worst: Never Let Me Down

Best: Heroes
Worst: Low

hot take

>His 60s stuff is kind of annoying.

Agree

Best: Diamond Dogs

Underrated: Heathen
Overrated: "Heroes" and Blackstar

Best: Station to Station

Worst: Never Let Me Down

Best: Low

Worst: Scary Monsters and Super Creeps

Well except Heroes, "Heroes" isn't that good.
Heathen > "Heroes"

I didn't get what was so great about "Heroes" for a long time until it finally clicked with me, but some time when you're feeling really patient I recommend listening to it. People talk about it like it's "interesting" in an intellectual/experimental way, but I actually find it really powerful on a simple emotional level, and I'm talking about the whole thing, not just the title track. I'd actually say it's more emotionally engaging than Unknown Pleasures, which is sort of a comparable album.

scary monsters is fuckin great aside from 1 or 2 songs

if they could be one album?

I disagree. Try it again.

Well what songs do you like on "Heroes"?
Would be interesting maybe I didn't listened to it enough or didn't get it.

"Heroes" > Heathen
how's that?

Once again please.

I just wrote But yeah, I didn't get it at first either and I had the same reaction. I thought it was some unengaging stuff, with a great single. Then I listened to it for some reason when I was feeling particularly receptive, and now it's his most powerful album for me. I guess that's my take - I recommend trying the whole album when you're feeling open, and not rushed at all.

lol I was actually disagreeing with the other part of the post

Best: Ziggy Stardust
Worst: Never Let Me Down

Heroes by far has the best cover, though. Thin White Duke was his best persona.

Best: Heroes

Worst: Hours

Top 10-

1. Heroes
2. Hunky Dory
3. Station To Station
4. Low
5. Diamond Dogs
6. Young Americans
7. Ziggy Stardust
8. Blackstar
9. The Buddha of Suburbia
10. Scary Monsters

How? Just, how?

Best: Heroes
Worst: Blackstar

Worst Blackstar?
A lot are worse than blackstar I understand if you didn't like it but come on.

Le troll boy

I've already listened to it 15 times.
I never even said it was bad. I like it. People just blow the quality out of proportion when it sure as hell isn't his "best album ever" from him.

his from him

lol

Best keeps changing for me but worst if definitely tied between S/T and Never Let Me Down.

>Worst: Scary Monsters and Super Creeps
Oh c'mon, it's his best 80s album and last great one up until 1.Outside

This is the worst opinon I've ever heard of. There was one guy that said he though Heathens was the best Bowie album though

The next great Bowie album after Scary Monsters is Buddha of Suburbia. 9/10. Patrician as fuck.

I never really got into Buddha, specially when my fav track of it is on 1.Outside too.

And I've never listened to Outside all the way through.... I'll give it another shot.

From Buddha, check the tracks The Mysteries, Untitled No. 1 and Ian Fish U.K Heir.

Best: Ziggy Stardust
Worst: Reality (Not just because of the album cover)
Underrated: Let's Dance
Overrated: Hunky Dory (I love it but it's not too 5 in my opinion)

best - "Heroes"
worst - his debut

>Worst: Hours
thursdays child is a banger tho you have to admit

Best: "Low"
Most overrated: Ziggy, i honestly don't get what's so great about it.
Most underrated: "Scary Monsters"
Worst: "Never let me down"

no "Heroes" is the only album with the "s.
you can't just be putting "s on all of his albums you loonatic.

Do it, I know it's long and some tracks are hard to go through but it's rewarding. The plot behind the album is p good too, I posted the booklet scans on a Bowie thread weeks ago but I'm not sure if they're in the archive anymore since that breakdown.

"David Bowie"

Bowie ranked

I was going to agree but wtf with heathen.

no you cant do that
you dont understand what you've just done

Holy fuck this.
There's no way Heathen is worse than Let's Dance and TND.
