I'm only a casual Bowie fan but surely this song is in everyone's Bowie top ten.

Faultless.

I've been on huge Bowie kick lately. My mother (of all people) introduced me to some album tracks and b-sides. I wouldn't put Ashes in the top ten though; he has way too much standout material. Cool video though.

Top ten 80's Bowie, but definitely not top ten overall. Final answer.

I used to be a huge Bowie fan but I get pretty bored with most of what I used to like. When I do listen, Ashes to Ashes never gets turned down. It's a great track from a great album.

Absolutely. The song is just...funk to funky.

I'm in the zeb camp on this one.

I loved hearing APC's cover of it back in the day.
