As an ardent fan of Bowie since Ziggy (1972), favourite Bowie songs vary from day to day. Many of his lyrics, as he states, are open to individual interpretation. Very rarely did he write linearly, therefore making the listener think a little harder. Even his music often strayed from the norm as many have said. Rick Wakeman said he was a genius in the way he'd put in a note that didn't follow what would generally be expected musically. Though I'm aware of most of the things here, it's great that you've laid it out so eloquently for othes to see. Thankyou and will share. You deserve many more views.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS, dude you know how many times i've doubled checked your channel to see if you posted any literary influence videos. THANK YOU, you're my favourite music analysis youtuber bc of these
I love Hunky Dorey and Station to Station. But in terms of songs, I would probably say Heroes, Station to Station, and Quicksand. It's really hard to say for sure. How about yourself?
Songs - Aladdin sane, big brother, John I’m only dancing, right, my death and candidate. I love all his songs for different reasons. If find it hard to say I don’t have a song from all of his albums on my play list.

Haha thank you man I appreciate it , hope the songwriting is going well for you👍
This videos is amazing! I can't find the words to describe how fascinating this breakdown of an artist work is.
Great video, very insightful.
Any chance you could do one on Jim Morrison's literary influences? Think it would make for a really interesting video
Seconded.
Dont worry Jim Morrison is on the list!

Big fan of the channel by the way man. Loved your videos on Ian Curtis, Lou Reed and Charles Bukowski

Your amazing and I truly look forward to your videos.
Incredible video! I’ve always loved Bowie, and you’ve done great work giving insight into his music

Thank you 👍
I love Hunky Dorey and Station to Station. But in terms of songs, I would probably say Heroes, Station to Station, and Quicksand. It's really hard to say for sure. How about yourself?
I've been told this is controversial but I honestly think Five Years is his best song. Such a great opener.
@@TheSelador I love five years. I was debating between that and Quicksand.
Songs - Aladdin sane, big brother, John I’m only dancing, right, my death and candidate. I love all his songs for different reasons. If find it hard to say I don’t have a song from all of his albums on my play list.
He did once say he was bored with the conventional use of words in songs and he was interested in an alternative
Incredible video. Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Phenomenal work as always great video
Thanks man
Amazing video ❤
Amazing videos
And fifty years later,man makes documentary...
I'm suprised you didn't mention his gustav holst influence, especially when you mentioned his sci fi influences.
He was wrong his words mean a lot to true Bowie fans.
