Worked in a bar in London in the 1990s where Bowie was a a jukebox favourite all day and night. I've never since got tired of him, and I could rhyme out a couple of album's worth here.

Absolute Beginners: the brightest of diamonds among Bowie's abysmal mid-80s "coal mining" period, with the snappy radio edit being a clear improvement on the drawn-out original version. This is a magical song.

Rock and Roll Suicide: the most dramatic of rock crescendos, and perhaps his most underrated song.

The Man who Sold the World. I don't doubt that Nirvana improved this song. But what a starting point they were given. Among Bowie's ever changing array of musical styles, this one stands out as a timeless riff and chorus classic.

Heroes
Station to station
Warszawa

All feature in Christiane F. A film he appeared in as himself[& produced] at a Berlin concert where young teen heroin addicts attend. One of most disturbing performances youll ever see on film as actress is 13 and it feels like a documentary. Couldn't be made today you'd imagine.

Puckoon

Heroes
Cat People
Any other Bowie song. Man is sorely missed.

Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose
