Side one is superb. Not so keen on side two though.

For a perfectly formed, ageless album that you don't listen to for five years (no pun intened) but when you do, you still remember all the lyrics, then it has to be Ziggy.

actually, i was going to say exactly the same about space oddity. they played cygnet committee on the radio recently and i was happily singing along until i realised i hadn't heard the album for about 15 years (since CDs took over from vinyl for day to day use). went straight out and bought SO to play all over again. god i'm getting old

it was a hard call against hunky dory though, first real album i ever bought (monster mash not included) and the same comment about songs that stick in your memory for years.

side one is excellent...agreed...but side two has some serious quality moments in it as well

Its got to be Heroes for me, its way ahead of its time and I love the eerie instrumentals.

he's made so many crackin' albums, very hard to choose

Ziggy for me, followed by Space...

Just a question. Is it true that The Clach wrote the song This is England after Bowie made This is not America, just to make fun of Bowie?

I dunno. I believe that Nick Lowe made an album called Bowi as a riposte to Low

an ep. which featured I Love The Sound Of Breaking Glass

there are only two possibilities, and both aren't in the poll
outside and low, of course....
