David Bowie is a class act in everything he does. There is no better. He joined up with another legend for this song. Brian Eno. I am so lucky to have been a teenager in the 70's :)
I loved this tune the moment I put the needle to the 'album' 30 years ago. I saw Bowie on a Monday nite in 74 at MSG. He was still doing the space thing that really didnt work for me. I stuck with him because the rock tunes he penned were fabulous. Watching him and his band perform some 30 years later at the MSG 911 benefit was a special treat for me. Frankly, I prefer the mature, drug free Bowie.

(luckily I recorded the 911 version b4 it was deleted). IMO, this maybe the greatest rock tune ever written...and performed by one of the coolest guys on the planet. Thanks, Mr. Jones. :)
Ireally like this version with its slow buildup to the climax and wailing guitar. Was that Ronnie Wood looking a bit younger ? David always has really good musicians playing with him and it really shows. The playing is very tight, no messing around. Apparently he runs a tight ship and is very demanding of his musicians which rally shows in the superb quality of thie performance. Even Paxman is in awe of him. I must go and watch him at least once before he too joins the great Gig in the Sky !!!!!
David when are you playing at MSG? New York..We need you to get up on that stage and let your OUTSTANDING AMAZING VOICE and great LOOKS transport the lot of us INTO OBLIVION PLEASE PLEASE ANOTHER NIGHT AT MSG ! NEW YORK SOON SOON
It's interesting to see him getting kind of choked up during this performance. It must have been quite powerful for him to perform this song in Berlin, especially with its references to the Berlin Wall.
David Bowie is like a fine wine,gets better and better with age,he is soo sexy for a man of his age,although he's not that old.He's sexy,sophisticated,honest and funny,everything i like in my men.David Bowie is the whole package with a red ribbon wrapped around him,love him,love him,love him.big fan in Canada,deathnotes mom,Barbara:):)
@mulroasted Where were you in 1974? It was a Monday night and the Garden was packed. I'll be the first to admit a good time was had by all. Sorry you missed out. :)
Have been there too. Was such a fantastic concert. But i still wonder - they filmed the full show and it never came out as DVD?!? And we were standing right in front of that camera thing and they were going on our nerves all the time by pushing us forward and then all for nothing???
This is the best version of Heroes I've ever heard. Bowie is my idol.
God, I wish I could have seen him in concert.
I saw him at Seattle's Paramount with Tin Machine. Hurts the heart he's gone.

Brian Eno.

Now is the time we NEED to be heroes!
Unvergessen dieser Ausnahmekünstler❤....ich liebte diese einmaligen Augen🫶👁️👁️
Looks, accent, personality, swag and class and thats just 1% David Bowie. He is magnetizing and addictive.
My favourite song from David Bowie. I love this song!
Bowie is beautiful because he is a natural former and a great singer. And also original.
Bringing the song back home.
Those that understand, will . . . . . . . . just that, understand.
i travelled from bonnie scotland for this gig, it was worth it, brilliant.
Doesn't get any better than this kids!
My fourth favourite song of all time
Cmon, man, which are the other three?
beautiful xx
I don't recall this being a hit--or somehow I missed back in the day--but now this is my favorite Bowie song and one of my all time favorite songs.
omg!that's one of the best videos i've ever seen
We love You David forever and ever...
I was at that exact concert in Berlin! 3 hours of Bowie at his best! I remember standing by the wall...
what can I give to be there again... it was so fascinating, so powerful!!!
Geez - I did the whole 80's thing - love this song.........still going strong & then some........lol
i was 19. he played at the mcg in melbourne. it rained. we sat under plastic. we went home. we drank 8 year old champagne and it was off. bliss
Best Live version of Heroes! Fire!
This song was recorded at Hansa Studios, Bewrlin in 1977.
Here he is 25 years later bringing it back home.
I agree, best live version anywhere.

wow, his voice has just gotten better and better
great artist, as perfect a song as you can write/perform.
He never gets older.
I saw him years ago on the Glass Spider Tour, and then later at Glastonbury. The man is a genius.
Åh vilken skön musik med härlig rytm. Jag gillar David Bowie musik. Bra att det finns text till då kan man sjunga med vilket jag gillar att göra.
Bowie is one of the best!

@19banana62 It's supposed to be about German lovers who meet under the Berlin Wall during the Cold War. Look it up at Song Facts.
He also cured cancer, stopped acid rain, and halted a hurtling asteroid with ESP.
Have been there too. Was such a fantastic concert. But i still wonder - they filmed the full show and it never came out as DVD?!? And we were standing right in front of that camera thing and they were going on our nerves all the time by pushing us forward and then all for nothing???
iconic
IN EVERY PERFORMANCE 🚶♂️🎶
@theguestfromthewest I wonder the same.. why is he so beautiful? and so talented, intelligent, charming and sensual.. OMG, I love him! ♥
Allurpro...I miss you baby..love you,my sweet
how has probably bowie's finest song got eleven dislikes?
Es un grande.
I thought the same! "Wow, did she plays the bass? cool!"
muito bom!!!
I was there
I've seen at least a half dozen versions of him doing this live......but this one hit's it out of the park. Anyone want to speculate why?
Bowie is living this song here.
Listen to the New York bootleg if you can ( thanks Derek) stunning. ....!
NHL '99 !!!
@khashood
He was 55 I think, this is in 2002
lol now that's sweet :D
un genio
