Off the back of last night's "10 Things You Might Not Know About Hull" thread, what are your top 10 David Bowie tracks? List them 1-10 & next week I'll compose a list, based on some kind of, as yet, undecided scoring system, of the "Official" Top 10. After plenty of overnight consideration this is my top 10. 1. The London Boys 2. Queen Bitch 3. Time 4. Five Years 5. Golden Years 6. Ashes to Ashes 7. The Prettiest Star 8. Quicksand 9. Bombers 10. My Death Would have included the medley off Ziggy Stardust, The Motion Picture. Wild Eyed Boy From Freecloud / All the Young Dudes / Oh You Pretty Things but as it's only my favourite David Bowie medley I didn't think it correct. Others who appear on the "unlucky to miss out" list are The Supermen, Diamond Dogs, Suffragette City, Soul Love & Rock "N" Roll Suicide. Crack on.
Christ, this is gonna be tough. My list CURRENTLY as it is likely to change after a couple of days.... 1. Station To Station 2. Breaking Glass 3. Speed Of Life 4. Rock & Roll Suicide 5. Drive In Saturday 6. Sound And Vision 7. Five Years 8. Cat People (Putting Out The Fire) 9. Queen Bitch 10. Ashes To Ashes Felt so bad leaving out so many classics. Rebel Rebel, Rock and Roll With Me, Oh You Pretty Things, Most of the Ziggy album, Boys Keep Swinging, Modern Love, Width Of A Circle, Changes, Heroes, All The Young Dudes, You Feel So Lonely You Could Die, Black Tie White Noise, Time... the list is endless, and constantly changing.
Not a massive fan, but here's mine... 1. Fashion 2. Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps) 3. Ashes To Ashes 4. Jump They Say 5. Hallo Spaceboy (Pet Shop Boys remix) 6. Up The Hill Backwards 7. This Is Not America 8. Life On Mars ? 9. Blue Jean 10. Heroes
1. Heroes. 2. Changes. 3. Sorrow. 4. The Man Who Sold The World. 5. Diamond Dogs. 6. Rock n Roll Suicide. 7. Panic in Detroit. 8. Life on Mars. 9. Sound and Vision. 10. Fantastic Voyage. Not easy that. I have another 20 odd that only mathematical impossibility is stopping me putting in my Top 10. I've kind of worked to a self imposed one song per album rule. But not really.

I was stunned at the start to see such low placings or outright omissions for Life On Mars? but glad to see some of the latter votes going for it. My number 1 for sure.
Results. Top 10 places. Scoring: 12 points for 1st choice, then 9,8,7, etc for the rest. Life On Mars ? Heroes Jean Genie Queen Bitch Moonage Daydream Five Years Ashes to Ashes Changes Starman Breaking Glass
