I agree with the commenter above. I would rate The Man Who Sold the World higher too. "Black Country Rock" is a pretty killer tune imo. Totally agree about how bad Never Let Me Down was. Bowie called that part of the 80's his "Phil Collins era"
The Next Day and the Exras together make for a genius double album effectively.... worth getting. That, Reality, Heathen and Black Star (the final four) and Man Who Sold The World, Scary Monsters id have much higher on my list but agree on whole with rest....The Buddha album is fantastic. I remember the tv series it was made for. Epic. Bowie loooooved Earthling and often 'little wondered' 😅why many didnt appreciate it.....love the fact it looks like Outside will be top 10!
Love Bowie and won't much disagree with your choices. I do appreciate The Man Who Sold the World a bit more than you do. I would have rated it higher, but I wouldn't claim it was one his best. It has a very dark feel, an ambience that is more musical than lyrical, but the lyrics amplify that unsettling feeling as well. I like it quite a bit and would have moved it higher, but still not in the top 10. Similarly, I might have liked Space Oddity and Pin Ups just a little bit more than you, but you probably pegged them about right. Pin Ups is just a cover album, but he's covering very good songs, and I like the Pretty Things, and it's always nice to see them get a little notice. Look forward to the next vid since several of my faves haven't been mentioned yet!...
man who sold the world that low? daam man. its amazing. prob me fav. also hours/reality are ace....in me top 10. most bowies stuff is cool tho....only one i dont like whats last in my opinion is black tie white noise.... anyways take it easy....from birmingham/blk country uk....
It disappoints me that they always put his first last. I love it. I can understand why people don’t like it though. Tonight would be my last. (Apart from Loving the Alien of course)Let’s Dance would be very low as well. Apart from that. : good ranking.
I would have Hours higher. Some great songs on it. Also Man Who Sold The World. One of my favourites.Really like Reality. Good Rock album. The albums I don’t like are Tonight. Never Let Me Down. Black Tie White Noise. Pin Ups. and the very first album David Bowie. Young Americans.
Man Who Sold The World that low... you get the hook!

Yeah, I know a lot of people love The Man Who Sold the World a lot more than I do for some reason.
It disappoints me that they always put his first last. I love it. I can understand why people don’t like it though. Tonight would be my last. (Apart from Loving the Alien of course)Let’s Dance would be very low as well. Apart from that. : good ranking.

Im impressed that Outside is Top Ten. If you don't put Ziggy at no.1 I'll be really impressed
So I think I only moderately impressed you.
I don't think you've quite got the South London accent
I tried! I'm from Texas, it was the best I could do.
Pfffffttttttt
