Space Oddity

TMWStW is more consistent I feel. A fair bit more filler on Space Oddity imo, although needless to say the title track is amazeballs.

Yeah I'll go with Space Oddity as well. Quite a nice A side but not so strong after that.

Off goes Space Oddity for me too, though The Man...isn't all it's cracked up to be tbh.

But yeah, I agree. You can't just throw in all your votes and **** off till the next round. That's not how it's done. Otherwise everyone will do that and it will just get confusing, not to mention boring.

That's not what I said. I was saying that voting off the debut was good enough for me this round. I don't care how the rest of round 1 goes. That list was just stating my best to worst, and it had nothing to do with the vote itself. If you read that more careful, you'd see that. I made a much earler post about how I'd vote off the debut. And that was all that was in it. An since that post said "I already voted," that means that list was not a vote.

Space Oddity ..awesome song ...rest of album not so much.

Space Oddity for me as well.
A vast improvement to his first one, a few good songs, but still.
I have to admit I really love TMWSTW. It used to be one of my most listened to Bowie albums. Love pretty much every song on this one, although I see how it's much less accomplished than a lot of his later work.

Shall we just call it for Space Oddity for this round then, or does anyone else want to vote? The first round doesn't even require counting, as it's all pretty much as expected, but once we hit round 2 it will get a little less obvious.

FaSho · 01-24-2016, 11:35 AM

I don't know what the count is right now, but I vote for the man who sold the world. I only abstained from that first round of voting because it was unanimous.

Trollheart · 01-24-2016, 12:04 PM

Ah! A dissenting opinion!

It took a lot of consideration, but Space Oddity.
