@Lilymoon Oh Ziggy Stardust. I think the whole album is a bit of a jumble. Starman, Lady Stardust and Ziggy Satrdust tell a story but Five Years doesnt realy fit for me. Then Soul love, Hang onto yourself, and Moonage Daydream are "just" a group of performance songs, but they are all good. I feel that with all Bowie's LPs though, did he ever stick to a theme ? Do you see what I mean, whats your take on it ?

@Captain That album was his masterpiece. He didn't quite match it in the rest of his work.
The thing I liked about it was when I first listened to it I was like "what the hell is this"
And then the more I listened to it the more it grew on me.
Each song has it's own story.
I loved Five Years!

@Lilymoon Yes it was his first big tour success as well, though you have to remeber ti was in effect "ziggy stardust" that was amazing, and he moved on to be "other people" later on. I cam eot think of hin more as a fashion icon than a pop artist. Pop music made it happen for him.
