    This album is brilliant! Happiness, The Pop Kids and Say It To Me are my three favourites at the moment.
  2. #28: This Is Not America (with the Pat Metheny Group) MJRF8xGzvj4 Year of release: 1985 UK Peak: #14 Chart Run: {22-14-17-23-29-50-74-x3-90} (09/02/1985 - 20/04/1985) Scores: 9.5 (Taylor Jago), 9 (popchartfreak, Acidburn), 7 (Joe., Colm), 5.5 (Dandy), 5 (Severin) Average: 7.42 Final score: 74.28 Taken from the soundtrack to mid 80’s espionage film, The Falcon And The Snowman, information on the collaboration is hard to come by as most biographies give the track only a passing mention. The Pat Metheny Group were a Jazz quartet who had been given the soundtrack and this track was a deliberate attempt at a Pop record. Bowie wrote the lyrics and provided the vocal, which is regarded among his finest of the era. The single appeared during the Tonight album’s era which Bowie; an album which Bowie had already begun to distance himself from. This Is Not America received little promotion but still managed a respectable #14 in the UK charts. Going back to 1984, we have This Is Not America, which was a more soulful piece after the in your faceness of its predecessor Blue Jean. It peaked at #14, a position no song appearing on a Bowie studio album would achieve again until 1993.
  3. #29: Hallo Spaceboy (with The Pet Shop Boys) (from Outside) sjYHTCR0qBk Year of release: 1996 UK Peak: #12 Chart Run: {12-25-30-49} (02/03/1996 - 23/03/1996) Scores: 10 (popchartfreak, Taylor Jago, AH Gold), 9 (Colm), 8 (Acidburn, Joe), 7 (Dandy), 6 (Fgiboy2511), 3 (Severin, richie) Average: 7.4 Final score: 74 Of all the songs on Outside, it is Hallo Spaceboy that most obviously flaunts Bowie’s main influence from the era; Swiss band The Young Gods. Hallo Spaceboy is a driving Industrial Rock song that bears more than a passing similarity to Skin Flowers by The Young Gods. It was an odd choice then when first announced as the 3rd single. However, the Pet Shop Boys had asked to remix the track, to which Bowie happily agreed. Neil Tennant had made a connection between Spaceboy and Major Tom that Bowie had never intended. When he explained his intention to use lyrics from Space Oddity, Bowie wasn’t happy. The Major Tom character was written off, lost or dead somewhere far away, and the idea seemed too much like a reference to his past, at a time when Bowie wanted to move forward. Bowie insisted on attending the sessions, but in the end felt like the finished version was like him guesting on someone else’s cover of his song. The remix version of the song was performed only twice, including the 1996 Brit Awards. Bowie would play the album version of the song at nearly every subsequent show he performed. At #29 we have the highest song of the 1990s (which is appropriate considering it is Bowie's best of that decade), Hallo Spaceboy. The Pet Shop Boys were coming off their first (and so far only) number one album, Very (although Super could very well become their second chart-topper) when they remixed the album version. It was by the far the highest-charting single from Outside, and it also outpeaked The Pet Shop Boys' Single-Bilingual, released later that year, which peaked at #14.
  4. #30: Up The Hill Backwards (from Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) ceZma9YI4xs Year of release: 1981 UK Peak: #32 Chart Run: {42-32-32-36-42-66} (28/03/1981 - 02/05/1981) Scores: 10 (Joe.), 8 (popchartfreak, Severin, Acidburn, Taylor Jago), 7 (richie), 5 (Dandy, Colm) Average: 7.375 Final score: 73.75 Inspired by a line from a children’s poem – ‘He walked up the hill backwards, so as not to see how high it was’ – the song has been mostly inferred to be about Bowie’s divorce from Angie late was finalised in 1980. Lyrically, the song suggests a ‘keep on keeping on’ attitude. That we have no little or no control over the course our life takes and in order to get through we must stumble blindly forwards sometimes to get past the obstacles. Bowie’s vocals are, unusually, shared on the song with Tony Visconti and Lynn Maitland. The idea was to give a ‘very MOR voiced’ sound, like the ‘epitome of indifference’, and particularly on the first verse. Being the 4th single from the album, and having been available to fans for over 6 months it stalled at #32 in the single chart. Starting off the top 30 we have Up The Hill Backwards, the final single from Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps). Although it peaked at a lowly #32 and is hardly remembered, and doesn't appear on any version of Nothing Has Changed, it still finishes higher than a few tracks on the 2-CD version of that best-of.

    VzGSeWwNkLI This is brilliant!
  6. 4. I'm starting to really be fed up of these acts whose names are capitalised words with all vowels removed. 6. I love the original! 7. I really like this, not as much as Runaway (You & I) or Peanut Butter Jelly though. 9. Not as good as Roses, about a billion times better than the atrocity that was #SELFIE though. 10. I quite like this, I'd like to see it become a hit. 12. This is great. Blonde making a brilliant song, as usual. 15. Apparently Bastille's second album is out later this year, I can't wait! 17. I love this, Sigma being brilliant as always. 21. This is awful. 22. I really like this, not as good as Attracting Flies though. 24. I can't say I'm overly impressed by this. 26. Absolutely magnificent. 28. This is good, but forgettable. 30. This is really good! Great chart!

  8. Mike Posner climbs to number one! Congratulations to Mike Posner, whose SeeB remix of I Took A Pill In Ibiza reaches number one! The song debuted at #84 five weeks ago, before skyrocketing 77 places (second largest climb in the history of the chart, behind only Boom Clap's 87 place vault from #94 to #7) to #7. It then rose a further 4 places to #3, before retreating a spot to #4. Last week, it climbed back 2 places to #2, and this week it goes all the way to the top. Subsequently, Hymn For The Weekend falls to number two after a three way residence at the top. Meanwhile, Lush Life remains at #3 to spend a 17th week in the top 7. The only week it has been absent from that area since its debut was on week ending 15/01/2016, which it fell 9 places to #14, before rebounding to #6 the following week. After stalling at #5 last week, Say You Do climbs 1 place to #4. Whether it can go three places further and become Sigala's third number one (making him the second act after Blonde to reach number one with his first three releases) is still all to play for. Speaking of which, Blonde & Craig David climb 5 places to reach #7, one place higher than Blonde's previous chart entry, Cast A Spell, which came and went rather quickly. Whether Nothing Like This can maintain Blonde's 100% number one with official releases streak is currently uncertain. Its success in the UK chart could be a deciding factor. Four weeks ago, it looked as if Cheap Thrills was on its way out of the top 100, and even three weeks ago whether it could beat its then peak of #39 was uncertain. By now, all of these doubts are erradicated, and Cheap Thrills moves up 6 places to become Sia's third top 10 hit after Chandelier and Alive. Ashes To Ashes falls one place to #5, No is a non-mover at #6, Absolute Beginners is a non-mover at #9 and Girls Like falls 3 places to #10. Other notable songs After spending 8 weeks going up and down from #43 to #76, Sigma's Stay climbs 22 places to #21. Subsequently, it outpeaks Higher, which still holds the distinction of being their least successful Sigma single to date. Better Place climbs 29 places to #51. It it Rachel Platten's third top 40 hit in this chart, after Fight Song and Stand By You. The 1975 enter at #33 with Somebody Else. THe Sound re-enters at #48, and She's American enters at #99. Following the release of their new album Super, The Pet Shop Boys have four new entries in this week's chart: The Pop Kids is at #43, Happiness is at #62, Sad Robot World is at #81, and their 1996 David Bowie collaboration Hallo Spaceboy is at #90. DNCE enter at #68 with Cake By The Ocean, while ZAYN enters at #83 with Like I Would. Finally, The Killers re-enter at #88 with Mr. Brightside.

  11. I didn't have a chart before 2014.
  12. My pick: GemKqzILV4w UK Peak: #6 Weeks on chart: 166 Snow Patrol have always been a great band, but this is hands down their best song (although "Run" is brilliant aswell). This is just flawless, and it will be remembered fondly for many years to come. A true classic. Ten honourable mentions from #2 to #11: Years & Years - King Professor Green feat. Emeli Sandé - Read All About It Vance Joy - Riptide The Script feat. will.i.am. - Hall Of Fame Labrinth feat.

    Bloody Bang Bang and Rinse & Repeat stopping Now Fitness from being exclusively tracks on Now 90, Now 91, Now 92 or Now 93!

    The Stories era was awful, so if his following music was intended to continue down that path it's no big loss. Waiting For Love, For A Better Day and Pure Grinding remain absolute crap. He was so good from Collide to A Sky Full Of Stars though,

  21. #31: Jump They Say (from Black Tie White Noise) avJt0SQec0I Year of release: 1993 UK Peak: #9 Chart Run: {10-9-21-37-51-61} Scores: 10 (Fgiboy2511), 9 (Taylor Jago), 8 (Dandy, Colm), 7 (Severin, Joe., AH Gold), 6 (popchartfreak), 5 (Acidburn, richie) Average: 7.2 Final score: 72 In 1992 Tin Machine had disbanded but the group had achieved its purpose of reinvigorating Bowie’s creative spark. He now teamed up once again with Nile Rodgers (who had produced the Let’s Dance album) to work on his first solo album since 1987. The resulting album, Black Tie White Noise, was inspired by contemporary Jazz, Funk, Hip Hop and R&B. Jump They Say was its lead-off single and Bowie returned to subject matter he had touched on several times in songs before – his schizophrenic half brother Terry. Whereas previous songs All The Madmen and The Bewlay Brothers were written when the pair were young, Jump They Say dealt with Bowie’s feelings regarding his brother’s suicide in 1985 – Terry had slipped out of his hospital, walked to the nearest railway station and jumped in front of the express train. Press and family members attacked Bowie, accusing him of ignoring Terry and for not attending his funeral (Bowie thought it would turn it into a press circus). Terry had been a huge influence on the younger Bowie, inspiring him musically and artistically but Bowie has acknowledged he exaggerated his importance into ‘hero-worship to discharge guilt and failure.’ Jump They Say has a coldly calculated feel that recalls some of Bowie’s Low era work, but despite this it received a big promotional push and returned him to the UK Top 10 for the first time in 7 years. At #31 we have the best Bowie song released between 1986 and 1995 with Jump They Say. With an intro which forces you to pay attention, a brilliant saxophone riff, and great lyrics, it's by far the best song on Black Tie White Noise.
  22. #32: Dead Man Walking (from Earthling) z3qm2tTD_oQ Year of release: 1997 UK Peak: #32 Chart Run: {32-62} (26/04/1997 - 03/05/1997) Scores: 10 (AH Gold), 8.5 (Taylor Jago), 8 (Colm), 7 (Severin, Joe., Dandy), 5 (popchartfreak, Acidburn) Average: 7.1875 Final score: 71.875 The guitar riff in the song was inspired by Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page back in the 60’s. He had taught Bowie the riff and Bowie had used it for The Supermen, from The Man Who Sold The World. The song was originally intended to be about Susan Sarandon, Bowie’s co-star from vampire movie The Hunger. Dean Man Walking was the title of her recent film. However, Bowie’s mind was turned to Neil Young. A huge influence on Bowie’s Folk inspired work as the 60’s became the 70’s. Throughout the 80’s Neil Young had spent years trying to keep relevant without much success, but by the 90’s had settled into playing the same style of Rock that he had started out only to find that the US Alt. Rock explosion had made him the Godfather of Grunge. Bowie was struck by the ‘grace and dignity’ of Neil Young, and saw something of himself in Young’s previous attempts to stay relevant. Bowie had spent the 90’s desperately trying to keep up to date with modern trends and the writing of Dead Man Walking could be seen as the moment Bowie finally let go of concepts, characters and melodrama and settles in to just being David Bowie. At #32 we have the second single from Earthling, Dead Man Walking. It is a bit too long, but it's still good.
  23. #33: Loving The Alien (from Tonight) OOaqDEjxQAU Year of release: 1984 UK Peak: #19 Chart Run: {23-19-19-28-45-66-x-67-81-x2-87} (08/06/1985 - 24/08/1985) Scores: 9.5 (Taylor Jago), 8 (popchartfreak), 7.5 (Joe.), 7 (Severin, Acidburn), 6.5 (Dandy), 6 (AH Gold, Colm) Average: 7.1875 Final score: 71.875 The final single from Tonight, of all the tracks on the album, is probably the one that Bowie spent the most time working on. It was originally called Demo No.1, and was Bowie’s favourite of the songs he had prepared for the album. From early on he knew it could be a single but its original arrangement was too unwieldy – it was the album’s ‘epic Bowie song’ in the vein of Station To Station or ‘Heroes’. The process of streamlining the song didn’t quite work and Bowie himself re-worked it again in the 00’s, stripping it back further to ‘the way it should always have been done’ Lyrically the song suggests that all the world’s religions are built on a series of mistranslations and ‘hidden history’ stories. The second of the two singles from Tonight, Loving The Alien is definitely a hugely underrated song. However, while it wasn't a massive hit, it does prove that Tonight at least had a bit of substance (aka 2 great songs and pretty much nothing else, but it's still better than none at all).
  24. #34: Time Will Crawl (from Never Let Me Down) gMhMaNAmT-U Year of release: 1987 UK Peak: #33 Chart Run: {40-33-42-55} (27/06/1987 - 18/07/1987) Scores: 9 (Taylor Jago), 8 (popchartfreak), 7 (Severin, Acidburn, Joe.), 6.5 (dandy), 5 (Colm) Average: 7.07 Final score: 70.71 Never Let Me Down is notorious as an example of a great artist making a bad album. It does, however, include Time Will Crawl, which is noted for being among his personal favourites of his own songs, although the album version is not the best example. In 2008 Bowie had the song ‘remixed’ by Mario McNulty for his iSelect compilation and, although the album version is one of the better tracks on Never Let Me Down, it is the remix which highlights the songs strengths. According to Bowie: ‘It was a beautiful day and we were outside on a small piece of lawn facing the Alps and the lake. Our engineer, who had been listening to the radio, shot out of the studio and shouted: ‘There’s a whole lot of shit going on in Russia.” The Swiss news had picked up a Norwegian radio station that was screaming—to anyone who would listen—that huge billowing clouds were moving over from the Motherland and they weren’t rain clouds’. The song was written immediately in the aftermath of hearing the news of the Chernobyl disaster, but Bowie had done apocalyptic fear before; Five Years, Fantastic Voyage, When The Wind Blows – only this time the lyrical intent was resigned indifference. Effectively - someone, somewhere else in the world has screwed up and there’s nothing I can do but wait for the inevitable. Vocally the song was inspired by Neil Young. Well, it's the best track from Never Let Me Down, but that's not a very prestigious honour in itself. Still, it was the only song from that album to appear on the 3-CD version of Nothing Has Changed, and it appeared on iSelect.
