We're listening to every David Bowie song in alphabetical order. Why? If you have to ask, then this show is probably not for you. Three times a week, we focus on one song, discussing its production, its context—both within Bowie's oeuvre and wider pop culture—along with our personal opinions, musings, life stories, puns, and sundry other tangents. fromatoziggy.com

Customer Reviews
Great for Bowie fans
It’s true the sound quality is not great and the hosts are a little overly positive, but it’s still a great exercise for true Bowie fans. I wish they’d finish!
if you love bowie
perfect for a 5 hour car ride!
My eyes rolled so hard I got a headache
Almost Made it through 2 full episodes. They don’t really know anything about what they’re trying to talk about. Proof that anyone can just make a podcast, I guess.
