"Space Oddity", a tale about a fictional astronaut, was released as a <a href="/wiki/Single_(music)" title="Single (music)">single</a> in July 1969 and became Bowie's first commercial hit, reaching the UK top five. The album was a commercial failure due to a lack of promotion, despite receiving some positive reviews from <a href="/wiki/Music_journalism" title="Music journalism">music critics</a>. For its release in the United States, Mercury retitled the album Man of Words/Man of Music and used different artwork. <a href="/wiki/RCA_Records" title="RCA Records">RCA Records</a> reissued the album under the title of Space Oddity following Bowie's commercial breakthrough with <a href="/wiki/The_Rise_and_Fall_of_Ziggy_Stardust_and_the_Spiders_from_Mars" title="The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars">Ziggy Stardust</a> in 1972, using a contemporary photo of Bowie as the artwork. The reissue charted in both the UK and the US. David Bowie has received mixed reviews in later decades, with many finding a lack of cohesiveness. Bowie himself later stated that it lacked musical direction. Debate continues as to whether it should stand as Bowie's first "proper" album. David Bowie has been reissued numerous times, with bonus tracks and variance on the inclusion and listing of the <a href="/wiki/Hidden_track" title="Hidden track">hidden track</a> "Don't Sit Down".

continued to attract mixed reviews from critics, with many criticising its lack of cohesiveness. <a href="/wiki/Dave_Thompson_(author)" title="Dave Thompson (author)">Dave Thompson</a> of <a href="/wiki/AllMusic" title="AllMusic">AllMusic</a> wrote: "'Space Oddity' aside, Bowie possessed very little in the way of commercial songs, and the ensuing album emerged as a dense, even rambling, excursion through the folky strains that were the last glimmering of British psychedelia."<a href="#cite_note-Thompson_AllMusic-51">[48]</a> <a href="/wiki/Douglas_Wolk" title="Douglas Wolk">Douglas Wolk</a> of <a href="/wiki/Pitchfork_(website)" title="Pitchfork (website)">Pitchfork</a> found that Bowie presents numerous ideas throughout the record, but does not know what to do with them, writing, "he wears his influences on his sleeve and constantly overreaches for dramatic effect".<a href="#cite_note-Wolk_Pitchfork-56">[53]</a> <a href="/wiki/Record_Collector" title="Record Collector">Record Collector</a>'s Terry Staunton agreed, saying: "Space Oddity may be regarded as the singer's first 'proper' album, though its mish-mash of styles and strummy experiments suggest he was still trying to settle on an identity."<a href="#cite_note-Record_Collector-58">[55]</a> Reviewing its 40th anniversary remaster, Mike Schiller of <a href="/wiki/PopMatters" title="PopMatters">PopMatters</a> stated that although it's far from Bowie's best, the record as a whole is "not half bad", standing as a "landmark" in Bowie's catalogue, and offering a glimpse at a man transitioning into the artist we've come to know".<a href="#cite_note-Schiller_PopMatters-57">[54]</a> Pitchfork's Stuart Berman found that the record's "prog-folk hymnals" were a precursor to the "artful <a href="/wiki/Glam_rock" title="Glam rock">glam-rock</a>" sound that made Bowie a star.<a href="#cite_note-Berman_Pitchfork-61">[58]</a> Reviewing for <a href="/wiki/The_Quietus" title="The Quietus">The Quietus</a>, John Tatlock felt the album does not stand as Bowie's first proper album, nor does it stand out on its own merit. He concludes that "it captures its creator at a fascinating crossroads, and is much more than a fans-only curio".<a href="#cite_note-Tatlock_Quietus-62">[59]</a> <a href="/wiki/Rob_Sheffield" title="Rob Sheffield">Rob Sheffield</a>, in the <a href="/wiki/Spin_Alternative_Record_Guide" title="Spin Alternative Record Guide">Spin Alternative Record Guide</a> (1995), considered the album to contain "overripe hippie ballads", with only "Space Oddity" as "a sign of things to come."<a href="#cite_note-Weisbard_&_Marks_1995-60">[57]</a> The music writer <a href="/wiki/Simon_Reynolds" title="Simon Reynolds">Simon Reynolds</a> wrote that the "rush-recorded" album, "centred around Bowie's twelve-string guitar", is arguably his worst album until the mid-1980s, adding: "The debut, charming and tuneful, conveys that Bowie's heart is in it, his delight in the jokes and play-acting palpable. None of that comes through in the second album."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEReynolds201699-63">[60]</a> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1224211176">.mw-parser-output .quotebox{background-color:#F9F9F9;border:1px solid #aaa;box-sizing:border-box;padding:10px;font-size:88%;max-width:100%}.mw-parser-output .quotebox.floatleft{margin:.5em 1.4em .8em 0}.mw-parser-output .quotebox.floatright{margin:.5em 0 .8em 1.4em}.mw-parser-output .quotebox.centered{overflow:hidden;position:relative;margin:.5em auto .8em auto}.mw-parser-output .quotebox.floatleft span,.mw-parser-output .quotebox.floatright span{font-style:inherit}.mw-parser-output .quotebox>blockquote{margin:0;padding:0;border-left:0;font-family:inherit;font-size:inherit}.mw-parser-output .quotebox-title{text-align:center;font-size:110%;font-weight:bold}.mw-parser-output .quotebox-quote>:first-child{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .quotebox-quote:last-child>:last-child{margin-bottom:0}.mw-parser-output .quotebox-quote.quoted:before{font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;font-weight:bold;font-size:large;color:gray;content:" “ ";vertical-align:-45%;line-height:0}.mw-parser-output .quotebox-quote.quoted:after{font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;font-weight:bold;font-size:large;color:gray;content:" ” ";line-height:0}.mw-parser-output .quotebox .left-aligned{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .quotebox .right-aligned{text-align:right}.mw-parser-output .quotebox .center-aligned{text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .quotebox .quote-title,.mw-parser-output .quotebox .quotebox-quote{display:block}.mw-parser-output .quotebox cite{display:block;font-style:normal}@media screen and (max-width:640px){.mw-parser-output .quotebox{width:100%!important;margin:0 0 .8em!important;float:none!important}}</style><div class="quotebox pullquote floatleft" style="width:30%; ; padding:8px;"> <blockquote class="quotebox-quote left-aligned" style=""> [Space Oddity is] kind of iffy, in that musically it never really had a direction...I don't think that I, as the artist, had a focus about where it should go.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPegg2016333–337-6">[5]</a> </blockquote> <div style="padding-bottom: 0;"><cite class="left-aligned" style="">—David Bowie, 2000</cite></div> </div> Biographers have differing views on David Bowie.
