Hello! Let’s find out who DiS considers worthy of a 5 or a 1 or whatever. Hot takes welcome, obviously. We’ll be following the same format as the TV vote, so you all know the drill.
Let’s get straight into it with one of the big hitters
Bonus poll:
Best song. These will be taken from a best of or equivalent, but other options are encouraged to be discussed etc
0 voters
Obviously Bowie is the best pop star ever
Next
pretty good but tried a bit too hard.
Another B+ artist like Hendrix
I’m seething already, fuck these threads
One of the greatest recording artists there has ever been. Just the sheer scope of genres, styles etc is staggering really, especially for the time. I’ve never gone really deep though, obviously there are albums I know and love but I’ve never delved 100% into everything. And obviously there is an amount of dross, especially around the 80s I guess, but still a 5 for me.
he changed his hair and outfits a lot but his music didn’t change much really
That is one hot take Bam. And I have to do some work for a bit, so well timed! You’re wrong, by the way.
That’s just plain wrong though isn’t it.
not at all, obviously production choices changed cos the 80s but I don’t think the way he thought about songs or the type of songs he made or the boogiewoogie rhythm changed much. sound and vision might as well be on ziggy stardust
B+ is a high score, everyone!
Nothing wrong with a B+
Ziggy Stardust, Low, Station to Station, 1. Outside, Blackstar… all sound the same mates
exactly. good and impressive workmanlike artist!
obviously I’m just talking about his music and not how good he was at being famous
Space Oddity, Modern Love and Lazarus might as well be condensed into a 3 parter.
(Hendrix is an A+ though)
hi @anon19035908 could you make it so we can see the poll results now rather than when it’s closed? it’s quite annoying
as if
The cheek of this!
Yep, it is isn’t it. This is all about revenge on you for this very fact Juke. Ha!
