Shut your dirty mouth young adidasss!

Ok so I have finally gone through his whole discography and here are my favorites:

1. Station to station - because damn it's funky as hell and contains what I currently consider my all time favorite Bowie song, Word on a wing.
2. Low - first half anyway which is maybe the most original music he's ever made and seems like it could have influenced about a half dozen modern indie bands. I don't care for the second part which is Eno atmospherics.
3. Let's dance - because I'm a pop whore let's be honest.

There are some fantastic singles spread out on other albums but aside from the above, I'd rather make a best of playlist than listen to them in their entirety.

His last couple of decades were a bit depressing to be honest. Quite a stark contrast to the 70s and 80s period.

Just wanted to record this for posterity.
