Like many musicians, Dave Grohl grew up a huge David Bowie fan. But which song was his favorite? Grohl says Bowie’s first live album David Live was “on regular rotation in my living room”, and that his early bands would cover “Suffragette City”. But Grohl picked “Fame” as his favorite Bowie track: “it’s ****ing amazing. The drums, the vocals, the arrangement, the performance. That song is ****ing slimy.” While Grohl and Bowie never collaborated in the studio, the Foo Fighters did get to perform with Bowie at the singer’s 1997 birthday concert at Madison Square Garden. What’s your favorite Bowie song? Why is he so influential for so many artists?
