Best of Bowie

Great hits of his career

First, the minus. The hit songs are the single versions. I prefer the album tracks. This should have been a double cd. Throw in some of those deep trax, such as TVC 15. But as is, it's fine for a new fan. Now, the plus. The song selection is great Imo. The must haves are here, and the sound is great. I was 15 when Ziggy came out, and we all fell in luv with this strange new creature. Saw him in Nashville twice. Feb., of '73 and in '76, the Thin White Duke returned! Buy this for your nephew/niece. They'll thank you one day!

Great music to enjoy

Great CD

I bought this David Bowie CD because, of course, I love David Bowie's one of a kind awesome out of this world music, and because this CD has some of the best songs that David Bowie has ever created. Overall, this CD has great sound and it does have great songs. I do wish, however, that it would've had Starman, because if you're a true David Bowie fan then you must know that Starman is definitely one of the best songs ever in the whole world, and it is a masterpiece in and of itself. How could they leave Starman out of this CD?? I do love that the CD starts off with Space Oddity, though. Space Oddity is another song that I consider to be one of the best songs ever created. Space Oddity, Ashes to Ashes, China Girl,Rebel Rebel, Ziggy Stardust; just to name a few of the great awesome hits that are included in this great CD. If the CD would've had Starman then I would've given it 5 stars, but it's still an awesome CD.

All my favorite David Bowie tunes. If you still play CDs and like Bowie, this is a must buy.

Seems like it took forever to get here

Icon. Strange. Innovative. Glam Rocker. Chameleon. Gender Bender. Eclectic Artist. Yes, the great David Bowie has certainly been a moving target in the music world. Sometimes, his looks got more attention than his songs did. But Mr. Bowie always had the talent. He pretty much revolutionized the industry and made us look at the world around us in different ways...sometimes through kaleidoscopic glasses with songs like the still mind-blowing "Space Oddity" & "Ziggy Stardust". The hits are all here: "Changes" (my personal favorite), "Young Americans", "Fame", and "Under Pressure" (Bowie's astounding collaboration with Queen). Then came probably his greatest commercial success as he took the 80's music video/dance song world by storm with "Let's Dance", creating yet another persona. Bowie's teaming with the charismatic Mick Jagger on their cover of "Dancing in the Streets" is a fun 80's listen, if not representing his best work. The most obscure ones like "The Jean Genie" and "Ashes to Ashes" are interesting bonuses to the compilation. If you're a die-hard Bowie fan, you might be yearning a more extensive song collection. But for those who have listened to his songs over the years, this is a pretty good collection on The Thin White Duke!

Loving going through the hits and the years.

If you love Bowie. You gotta have this album on your list!!

シングルバージョンが多いんで。 bestよりgreatest hitsの方がよかったのデワ。

I absolutely love almost all of the music on this (as you can see by the stars......) CD. I know that I didn't really get into David Bowie when I was in high school BUT I am excited to have his 'Best of Bowie' album that has all the hits on it. I collected more classic rock and Canadian stuff back then. Some of the old stuff is really good and very original, I have a pretty vivid imagination and as the music plays, in some of the music, I can see in my mind different things, different experiences that I have been involved in and it is just somewhat more of a relaxing album to me. Now it may not be to you, but that is the interpretation of music, isn't it! The CD is excellent and you won't be disappointed if you order it.

...im Gegensatz zur Deutschen Version, ist diese mit zwei Silberlingen vollgepackt...und es ist alles drauf was einen Bowie Fan oder kommenden Bowie Fan begeistert...guter Mix aus allen Jahrzehnten...und im Gegensatz zu den Vorrednern, kann ich an dem Mastering nichts aussetzen...Einfach Top Ware zu einem guten Kurs...
