And it was cold and it rained
So I felt like an actor
And I thought of Ma
and I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race, the way that you talk
I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk

mlt - Heros at Live Aid was one of the special live music moments
Bowie is a genius. Just think of all the different guises he has performed under - with the corresponding changes in his music.
Many many of his songs are classics. His lyrical style cannot be beat.
63 now - and i understand he's in poor health,and has to all intents and purposes retired.

OK, Kooks
No, Oh You Pretty Things.

Moonage Daydream performed on his David Live album was unbelievable. The sax playing was incredible

Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing reprise.
Musically never surpased and lyrically so far above everything to be almost hurting.

i could name a dozen and possibly more too hard to callso ill go for one of his lesser known ones - wide eyed boy from freecloud
Wild Eyed Boy From Freecloud just one of the hundreds of absolute classic tracks that probaley has never been played on any Radio station in the world.
Cygnet Commitee off same album.
Lady Grinning Soul (probaley the most achingly beautiful song ever been put onto vynil)
Big Brother, another classic from the king of albums Diamond Dogs.
as you say Dragon you could pick 100 out and the 101st would still be tens times better than 99% of all music that has ever been.

Good to see so many tracks from Hunky Dory getting a mention.
Even Shakesphere couldnt write better lyrics than Quicksand and The Bewlay Brothers off Hunky Dory.
Great shout Dragon for a nod for Memory Of a Free Festival.
Always Crashing In The Car from the mighty Low album another untainted classic that was thankfully getting played at recent concerts before his illness.

Which Bowie song has the town of Eastbourne in it's lyrics?
Drive In Saturday suede one of the biggest enigma's going re a classic Bowie single.
For some reason it is never ever played on the radio when they need a Bowie single and is almost the forgottan Bowie track.
Let me put my arms around your head
Jee its hot lets go to bed
Dont forget to turn off the lights
dont laugh babe it'll be all right
pour me out another phone, ill ring and see if your friends at home
Perhaps the Strange ones in the door could lend us a book
we can read up alone
and try to get it on like once before
when people stared in Jaggers eyes and scored
like the video games we saw
His name was always buddy.......
