"Magic Dance" from Labyrinth (1987)
1970   |   1980   |   1990   |   2000   |   2010

As  you've doubtlessly heard, the legendary David Bowie died this weekend following a very private battle with cancer, and the world is in mourning.

Bowie was many things to many people following a decades-spanning career, is which Bowie earned a reputation as an ever-changing chameleon of a pop star.  His shifting career took him through looks, collaborations, and genres, many of which he himself pioneered.  His music included rock, jazz, cabaret, and what he characterized as "plastic soul," but it was always heartfelt and soulful.  And while some parts of his oeuvre are better remembered than others, the essential nature of Bowie was that his art was utterly fearless

In honor of the passing of the great man, here's a compilation of the many, many music videos of David Bowie, arranged by decade.  Enjoy
