10 David Bowie Songs That Will Make Your Life Better

9. The Stars (Are Out Tonight) (2013)

The second single from surprise comeback album The Next Day, this alt-rock-infused number harks back to the days of Robert Fripp's guitar work on Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps), bursting out into one belter of a bassline that refuses to die down.

It's a prime slice of late-era Bowie that went rather under the radar on the back of the more reflective Where Are We Now?, and it's worth checking out alone for the music video in which the artist plays a husband opposite his effective chameleonic equivalent Tilda Swinton.
