Every time I think a song or album is mid 4 or 5 listens later I’m like “nah he’s a genius I just didn’t get it”
Went through the Berlin Trilogy over the last couple days and now I’m on Scary Monsters
Definitely feeling how much more accessible it is than Heroes and Lodger are

not to spoil your listening experience but you about to enter the mid territory of his 80s era
still always a handful of good to great songs on each album but the mid to late 80s were def not his high point artistically speaking(have to blame lets dance for that tho).
thank god he turned it around once more in the 90s

I’m fairly certain I’m going to listen to Let’s Dance and circle my way back around to the beginning of his discography
I’ve heard ziggy stardust but not any other of his pre station to station albums

yea that one
idk if its a 100% accurate but just the mental image of him driving around in a parking lot like a lunatic is priceless
Basically listening to a Bowie album a day rn, revisiting all of the classics as it’s been too long for some of them. Not going in any specific order either, which has been interesting. Started with Diamond Dogs, Low yesterday and Ziggy Stardust a bit ago. Anxious to see how my album rankings look when I finish up.

scary monsters always worth a re-visited, lodger also a fun album.
listened to reality yesterday some amazing songs on there and his last album before that loooong hiatus

I haven’t listened to some of the later Bowie albums really, outside of Blackstar. The ones I have heard it’s been ages since. I’m trying to listen to every single one this time though.
Went with Heroes tonight, always a solid choice not sure how I’m gonna rank these albums though

Will check them out for sure then
Def gonna try to give every album a listen if I can.
But no doubt, Heroes is amazing. That whole Berlin Trilogy is unbelievable.
Moved on to Scary Monsters early this morning, it’s been too long since I’ve heard this one.

scary monsters has my fav bowie song on it so i rate it prett highly in his discog for that fact alone lmao
u can def. skip some of his 80s albums tho (like tonight or never let me down) couple of worthwhile songs, but overall you ain't missing much.
also "hours" his last 90s album is just meh imo

I think Let’s Dance is where I stopped last time I went through his discography bc id heard the rest of the 80s stuff wasn’t that great.
But what’s your fav Bowie song?
