Bowie Legacy is a greatest hits album by British musician David Bowie, released on 11 November 2016 through Sony Music Entertainment.

The album's contents are mostly identical to the two-disc edition of Bowie's previous greatest hits album Nothing Has Changed (2014), with a few differences between both releases.^[1] "Love Is Lost" and "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)", which were present on Nothing Has Changed, are replaced by three new selections: "Lazarus" and "I Can't Give Everything Away", both from Bowie's final studio album Blackstar (2016), and the radio edit of the Heathen song "Slow Burn" (which also appears on the three-disc version of Nothing Has Changed).^[2] Additionally, a previously-unreleased mix of "Life on Mars?" is present instead of the original version from Hunky Dory (1971).^[2]

A one-disc version, with a non-chronological track listing, was also made available in some markets.^[1]
