Heroes — альтернативная версия аккордов к одной из величайших песен Боуи. Гимн любви на фоне Берлинской стены.
I
I WISH YOU COULD SWIM
LIKE THE DOLPHINS
LIKE THE DOLPHINS CAN SWIM
THOUGH NOTHING
THOUGH NOTHING WILL KEEP US TOGETHER
WE CAN BEAT THEM
FOR EVER AND EVER
OH WE CAN BE HEROES
JUST FOR ONE DAY
(INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE)
I
I WILL BE KING
AND YOU
YOU WILL BE QUEEN
THOUGH NOTHING
WILL DRIVE THEM AWAY
WE CAN BE HEROES
JUST FOR ONE DAY
WE CAN BE US
JUST FOR ONE DAY
I
I REMEMBER: (CHOR ANTWORT) I REMEMBER
STANDING
BY THE WALL: (CHOR ANTWORT) BY THE WALL
THE GUNS
SHOT ABOUT OUR HEADS: (CHOR ANTWORT) ALL ABOUT OUR HEADS
AND WE KISSED
AS THOUGH
NOTHING COULD FALL: (CHOR ANTWORT) NOTHING COULD FALL
AND THE SHAME
WAS ON THE OTHER SIDE
OH WE CAN BEAT THEM
FOR EVER AND EVER
WE CAN BE HEROES
JUST FOR ONE DAY
WE CAN BE HEROES
WE CAN BE HEROES
WE CAN BE HEROES
JUST FOR ONE DAY

- Heroes записана на студии Hansa в Западном Берлине, в 500 метрах от Берлинской стены. Текст вдохновлён поцелуем продюсера Тони Висконти и певицы Антонии Маасс у стены. Для записи использовалась уникальная система из трёх микрофонов на разном расстоянии от Боуи.
