The Belgian version presents three songs not on the U.S. single-disc release.
Although not as comprehensive as its two-CD sibling of the same name, the single-disc BEST OF BOWIE serves as an outstanding career-spanning retrospective reflecting the visionary aptitude of a restless creative genius who switched into different musical guises the way some people change suits. These 20 cuts trace David Bowie's path from space-rock folkie ("Space Oddity") and glam god ("Ziggy Stardust") to blue-eyed soulster ("Young Americans") and cutting-edge futurist ("Fashion").
While 21st century kids might be aware of Bowie via a cover by the Wallflowers ("Heroes"), it's equally likely they've heard playlist war-horses like '80s alt-pop classics "Let's Dance," "Modern Love," and "China Girl." Not to be missed are this icon's stellar collaborations with a wide range of talent including John Lennon ("Fame"), Queen ("Under Pressure"), Mick Jagger ("Dancing In The Streets"), and The Pat Metheny Group ("This Is Not America"). Rounded out by the Nine Inch Nails industrial-rock team-up "I'm Afraid Of Americans [V1]," the single-CD BEST OF BOWIE is the perfect overview for fans with merely a passing interest in the Thin White Duke.
