Ronno was the man, one of my favorite guitars players, not to mention arranger, pianist, producer etc.. Ziggy Stardust, The man who sold the world were the first albums that really turned me on to guitar in music, and Mick Ronson was that player that did it for me.
Mick Ronson had exactly one year left, 9 days. It is so, so sad. Freddie Mercury; Mick Ronson; David Bowie. Incredible talents all. RIP. Gone but never forgotten, and never equalled.
He got to much! He's known to every guitar player and proper music fan! And he didn't do that much only with Bowie. do you think they should make statue?
Arranger producer pianist guitarist list goes on @@dondamon4669 produced for Morrissey, New York dolls, Lou Reed. Arranged John Mellamcamp, Mott the Hopple list goes on! Guitarist for Dylan 😂
@@dondamon4669 do you realise how much production and arranging Ronno did after his short stint with Bowie ? He never got the credit and rewards he deserved.
Rarely mentioned is the fact that Mick Ronson was a great classically trained pianist as well as a great guitarist, producer and arranger. And an extremely humble human being. R.I.P. Hull lad.
His piano and string arrangements were key in making The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust what it is, his guitar plays is obviously stellar, but his other work was fantastic.
Mick Ronson was a fabulous musician and demonstrates mastery of instruments he plays with spectacular selection of notes creating melodies that are iconic!l
I saw Mick .in 1974 in Cleveland with Bowie and the spiders from Mars. When they played moonage daydream. Mick wailed on that song the best song Bowie made, what a concert. My first concert. 7 dollars for the ticket!!
Blessed by whatever is spinning this universe to have HAD the experience of David Bowie and his musicians only once. Couldn't have wanted more. So missed. Regret not experiencing the magnificence of QUEEN. RIP FREDDIE.AND MICK.
@Frank Griegorian You must be mixing things up - Bowie never toured Germany with the Spiders. His first tour in Germany was Station to Station in 1976.
Whilst Mick Ronson was already aware of his own perils of cancer, he volunteered for this stellar performance on behalf of Freddie. Mick was the true “hero” that night. R.I.P. We love you
The Wonderful Mick Ronson and Bowie in his Pomp. Brian May happily playing Rhythm behind them. And all for The Mercurial Freddie. Those days will never be seen again. 💋 💔💔
Stunning! Mick Ronson is killing it. Such a stellar performance. Makes you wonder what Bowie and Ronson could have achieved if they’d rekindled that partnership a little earlier.
This version for me is the best , great drums , awesome bass from john deacon , and the late GREAT Mick Ronson a true guitar hero along with Brian May good memories !
Jack Russell most definitely remember watching this at the time thinking this had to be the the best mature performance of the day most suitable for Brian roger John very emotional.
@Thijs is in the air you're absolutely right about this. Roger Taylor and John Deacon are so in sync on this track. Given the highly-emotional reason for this concert, I can't say enough about Queen's musicianship that night. And of course David Bowie and Mick Ronson make this song very special.
Freddie, Mick (died not long after this) and David. We miss you! Mick so ill and thin here, he looks like the wind might blow him over. Played beautifully. Bend it, Ronno!!!!
Giant Tip Of The Guitar To Mr. Brian May! He held the Grace,Dignity and Honor to stand back and let Mick Ronson literally give his all this Night! Ronno Shined!
I think that David gave us the best performance of "Heroes" of his entire career that night... my opinion. EDIT: wasn't expecting so much feedback. Thank you all for sharing your thoughts. Of course I agree that both Queen and Ronno are pivotal in the greatness of this version (Deacy is on fire). I agree as well that Bowie did other great renditions of this masterpiece during the years, but the vocals on this one always strikes me so hard.
@@ilicgustav9192 2003 and 2011 nr 66 and 43 in the influential guitarist list.1973 and 1974 nr. 2 in the british guitarist poll. Played with Bowie, Mott, Reed, Dylan, produced albums. Brian May named him as one of his heroes. Underrated?
I absolutely love this version of the song. The crying sound Mick is getting by Ebowing that tele is amazing and very fitting to the occasion. Roger, John and Brian are the perfect touch to David Bowies vocals and Mick's crying tele. It's tragic we lost Freddie Mercury, but a year after this show we would lose Mick Ronson as well. Heaven took from us two of the finest musicians and we miss them. But they left us with their music to keep us company. Rest In Peace Freddie and Mick.
It took me many years to realize the genius of Mick Ronson. Thank you Mick for your impact on the world. You are my HERO every time I strap on my Les Paul.
I wish the video included David's short speech after and him saying The Lord's Prayer. Finding that on another website comforted me tonight. Thank you for all you did in your lifetime and rest in peace, David Bowie. I'm glad to live in a world where you have existed.
I wish I could find the video that includes David Bowie reciting the Lord's Prayer. Bowie's death has hit me hard, and I'd love to see that particular video.
I've done research of a lot of stuff Ronson not only with Bowie but with other artists. He is pretty awesome, too bad he's no longer with us. RIP Mick and Freddie
+Paul8820 Mich Ronson was a true genious with the guitar. And quite sure also as a human...... No one can play this amazing guitar without beeing a fantastisc human. Mick played wit stars as Dylan, Lou Reed and lots of others to whoom he gave a release of potential....
I wish Freddie and Mick had recorded something together, it would be magical hear Freddie's voice together with Mick's guitar, but both are dead, with 45 and 46 years, only the good die young. Mick is my favorite guitarrist and Freddie is my favorite vocalist.
Robert Fripp and Brian Eno came up with the guitar line, Tony Visconti was there and he said so. Brian Eno is the co writer of Heroes, in case you hadn't noticed. Heroes is based on Waiting for the Man, so I guess you could say it was written for Lou Reed. Thinking Bowie spent the rest of his career writing for Mick Ronson is just your opinion really.
The fact that we've lost Mick and Bowie since then breaks my heart. Freddie & Bowie were something else and Mick Ronson is beyond underrated. He was an incredible talent. A lot of Bowie's earlier music wouldn't have been what it was without him. Three of my favourite musicians....all gone.
Love this so much, but always feel sad, thinking (and seeing) how ill Mick was. All the musicians played, knowing he was terminally ill....but it made them play their hearts out.
I said it before and I’ll say it again! This is the best version live of David Bo’s Heroes. Queen was made to play live music. They should release an album of all their top hits and all love versions only.
The One of The Best and Greatest Rock song performace. Live.Nobodies and never can not repeat this song performace againThis is amazing performace!Forever!
Every time I see this I get chills and tears. I can’t even imagine what it must’ve been like being there. Seeing Ronson so happy and playing as legendary as he always did...with even Mays watching him...and the rest of the awesome players- with Bowie front and center...Is beyond words. I’m most certain Freddie was there too.❤️ They cut of the Lord’s Prayer though... which should’ve remained part of this. Oh how they all are so missed...especially Bowie😢 ❤️✌️
Here I am 1 year later still listening, watching and enjoying this amazing video. As I watch Mick Ronson performing and knowing how sick he was from his cancer and treatments, I know first hand what he feels. I've been fighting that nasty shit for 16 years and now it has returned once again, and this time with a vengeance. This concert was April 20, 1992 and Mick died April 29, 1993. How ironic is that? I sincerely admired Mick for his talent and the person he was. It makes me wonder what may have been going through his mind not knowing a year and nine days later his time would be up. God Bless all us cancer victims, our families and our loved ones, for our brave battles, win or loose.
I could see the heart braking pain on David Bowie's face expression, his voice, at the end of this song, before he said, the song to be dedicated for Freddie Mercury's Tribute; I got that lump in my throat and watery eyes ready to cry.
Just too magnificent; passionate musicians everyone; Amazing John Deacon superb and Roger Taylor's drumming breaking my heart; Brian just wonderful....David, .Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson, I surely knew about, but their power, emotion and , well wonderful performing all around. Needed this revisit tonight!
I've listened to this over & over just to remember Mick Ronsons unique style. They say he is 64th all time guitarist, I argue that. Definitely in top 10.
He said before he died "I am glad I am dying - because I haven't any more money for the medical bills." His wife said he and Bowie weren't in touch with each other before he died and he was blanked out. He worked as a producer and as a car mechanic too. He wanted to be with his wife and child and being on road with a band he wouldn't have been able to be. He should have - simply - being rewarded for his work. I have always thought that Bowie had a certain cynicism and a me-first about him. Ronson didn't even play on some Bowie albums when he had expected to and even needed the money.
how legendary this is man... David Bowie and his golden era bandmates joining Queen in the historic Wembley to pay tribute to the great Freddie Mercury... and this video has only 1.000.000 views... this is the world we're living children...
Freddie was so astonishing that it takes me this video to "get" how fucking good Queen were as bass drums n guitar. Mick Ronson was a huge favourite of mine. So distinctive a player. "Boy could he play guitar..."
I will never forget this concert. It was broadcasted live here in Spain, hardly to imagine nowadays when music (specially live) has been banished from TV at least in Spain. All the participating artists were unbelievable. However all the songs performed by David Bowie and by George Michael got engraved in my mind forever. This performance of Heroes puts a lump in my throat evey time I listen to it. RIP David, Mick and Freddy.

Add Ian Hunter too
@@clinttoner6239wtf, why?

@@dondamon4669 they did - it's in East Park, Hull, Ronson's home town
So glad to find this. A great tribute to Mick Ronson also.
The duo Mick Ronson/John Deacon sounds just amazing! What a perfect tuning!
Deacon is on fire, the bassline is perfect!
Deacon serves the song and not anything else. Entwhistle - who was also brilliant - but wanted to show-off and avoid being bored.
More class than podge and may 4 sure
I was feeling the same, an Roger on drums, the Queen´s engine on fire!!
I thought that too. Brilliant
it's not even his song! he's such an amazing musician
Legendary performance!Those days were like a dream😢
Rarely mentioned is the fact that Mick Ronson was a great classically trained pianist as well as a great guitarist, producer and arranger. And an extremely humble human being. R.I.P. Hull lad.
Great producer as well he produced Morrissey's biggest solo album

Without a doubt, the absolute best rendition of this song.
Deacon's Brilliance!
Deacon's bass is really special.
I like this song and this version is best "HEROES".
Taylor's drumming is immense too
This is the best live ‘‘HEROES’’ .
John’s bassline is always on my mind !!
True. I specifically watch this over and over again just to hear the sound of his bassline, then the guitar, and the vocal
Must be deaf if you can hear any bass
May steps back to give Ronson the spotlight. What a Gentleman.
Bowie gone. Mercury gone. Mick gone. RIP. Bowie was amazing live in concert. Very blessed to see him few times.
When elton mick and axl are gone music will never be the same
Blessed by whatever is spinning this universe to have HAD the experience of David Bowie and his musicians only once. Couldn't have wanted more. So missed. Regret not experiencing the magnificence of QUEEN. RIP FREDDIE.AND MICK.
@@p.raven8737 Axl's a talentless tool. Music will be better with him gone.
I saw the last show he ever played in the United States pnc bank art center. It was my third time seeing him.the best of the 3.amazing show.
@Frank Griegorian You must be mixing things up - Bowie never toured Germany with the Spiders. His first tour in Germany was Station to Station in 1976.
Music is forever. Legends never die.
General Grizzy beautifully said!
You are correct.
General Grizzy you are right
General Grizzy looks like freddie and bowie
but we die ...
Queen as backing band of David Bowie + Mick Ronson!
It feels like the universe gave it's all at one time
Where's Ian Hunter...
I am soooo dissapointed with new Queen I can't spell.
Whilst Mick Ronson was already aware of his own perils of cancer, he volunteered for this stellar performance on behalf of Freddie. Mick was the true “hero” that night. R.I.P. We love you
Fred Mullen so true.
the real tragedy is that the man didnt have the same level of fame as some of his less talented counterparts , lovely man, sadly missed
Dont think Mick ever got the respect that he truly deserved. He was a better guitar player than a lot of them out there at the time.
Mick "taken" before his recognition was made, RIP mate xx
Sure, I agree. I think that it happens one year before his death !
The Wonderful Mick Ronson and Bowie in his Pomp. Brian May happily playing Rhythm behind them. And all for The Mercurial Freddie. Those days will never be seen again. 💋 💔💔
Could not agree more !! Sheer class by LEGENDS!!!
freddie david and mick. the world is simply smaller without such amazing Heroes
RIP... Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, Mick Ronson, George Michael...
:'(
esize John Lennon
:(
And Michael Jackson
A musical Olympus of gods
My favorite version. It's great to see Bowie and Ronno together again , but also sad. This also has the best bass line.
Absolutely
Mick on his way out here with cancer and still rocking. What a superb man
Stunning! Mick Ronson is killing it. Such a stellar performance.
Makes you wonder what Bowie and Ronson could have achieved if they’d rekindled that partnership a little earlier.
Thank all that is good in the World that we have this awesome footage of the great Mick Ronson!
Nothing beats this.
I adore this song - it has one of the best basslines of all time.
...and John Deacon nailed it. I'm in awe, they couldn't have had a ton of time to master a lot of stuff they played that day.
So true
Freddie, David and Mick, we will never forget you. Rockin in the clouds for all time. Love you all. ❤❤❤❤❤
I feel privileged I was there. Mick and David on the same stage backed by Queen playing one of my all time favourite songs. Only once in a lifetime.
I was there too, unforgettable! We are heroes, best regards from Austria
You were both sooo lucky!!
Saludos desde Ecuador. Yo tenia 5 años cuando fue este concierto y esta cancion es de las mejores de esa noche. Fue un conciertazo.
Please adopt me
I love how faithful Queen was to the original. On their night. True musicians.
This version for me is the best , great drums , awesome bass from john deacon , and the late GREAT Mick Ronson a true guitar hero along with Brian May good memories !

Mick Ronson the most underrated ever guitar heroe... Bowie never ever would' ve became the icon and star without Ronnos contribution
Poor Mick Ronson...his final performance, seen by millions, alongside his old colleague.
Mick Ronson deserved to play this beautiful song....r.i.p. Mick, Freddy and David.
Absolutely phenomenal!
Best version !
The best version ever played
💯
Freddie, Mick (died not long after this) and David. We miss you! Mick so ill and thin here, he looks like the wind might blow him over. Played beautifully. Bend it, Ronno!!!!
I love the clear sound of the guitar of Mick Ronson.

I came from Austria to be in this crowd on Easter Monday 1992. I am 54 now, tears in my eyes whenever I watch this. This was epic!!!
love you man I'm 22 years old really great music you lived in golden era
As was I. It's still the greatest live concert I've ever seen.

For all the talent on show I'm still captivated by Mick Ronsons guitar playing .
Awesome
Love and echo that statement fella....
Mick Ronson say no more 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️⭐️🌞🎸
Ronson hold that one note longer than entire careers of many guitarists!
Will never be another concert like this all the more remembered now for Freddie , ☆David , & Mick RIP

Great Live version, Great concert and great to see Mick Ronson too ...They were ALL Heroes.
Davids voice sounds amazing here
TheOfficialCMAN It always does, but yeah, he stole the show here :)
definitely the best live performance of the song
Agree
Why would Robert Fripp and Brian Eno write a guitar part for Mick Ronson?
Robert Fripp and Brian Eno came up with the guitar line, Tony Visconti was there and he said so. Brian Eno is the co writer of Heroes, in case you hadn't noticed.

I said it before and I’ll say it again! This is the best version live of David Bo’s Heroes. Queen was made to play live music.
They should release an album of all their top hits and all love versions only.

What a fantastic version, how heartrending seeing gorgeous Mick Ronson knowing he was already uncurable ill
This is the best live version of this song, of course with the great Mick Ronson!
The One of The Best and Greatest Rock song performace. Live.Nobodies and never can not repeat this song performace againThis is amazing performace!Forever!
I can feel deep sorrow on John face
Amazing performance, Ronson nails this one, to see Bowie with him is beautiful. Compliment to John Deacon too. This song is a masterpiece.
The best sublime guitar player ever Mick Ronson
What a phenomenal guitarist Mick Ronson was.
This is a great song. A very triumphant song. Heroes. Aptly named. One of Bowie at his best for sure
I think this is one of the better live version. Mick Ronson is perfect, and the line bass is awesome....

Terri Wilk 41st actually. They created another list to substitute this one you're talking about
If you don't write the songs you are nothing really. The guy worked as a chef and a car mechanic just to survive.
He said before he died "I am glad I am dying - because I haven't any more money for the medical bills." His wife said he and Bowie weren't in touch with each other before he died and he was blanked out. He worked as a producer and as a car mechanic too. He wanted to be with his wife and child and being on road with a band he wouldn't have been able to be. He should have - simply - being rewarded for his work. I have always thought that Bowie had a certain cynicism and a me-first about him. Ronson didn't even play on some Bowie albums when he had expected to and even needed the money.
I don't care whether you believe me or not!
He was in touch with Bowie before he died, and Bowie contributed to his medical expenses, along with Ian Hunter, John Mellencamp and Joe Elliot.
I’m addictive to this song ,Mick Ronson’s opening piece is magical, Bowie’s singing is brilliant..
1000% agree!!
how legendary this is man... David Bowie and his golden era bandmates joining Queen in the historic Wembley to pay tribute to the great Freddie Mercury... and this video has only 1.000.000 views... this is the world we're living children...
Yeah beacuse real Queen and Bowie fans actually bought that concert on VHS, DVD, or Blu Ray we dont need RUclips to enjoy this.
still... 1.200.000 views in 9 years for this majestic perfomance says too much for today's audience... anyway... screw them, their loss...
amazing
My favorite version of this song. Mick Ronson (RIP) AND Brian May!
And that bass line.....
John "Deacy" Deacon. Queen fans still pray one day at least once before all Queen members die, he will performed again with Queen. i know i do
legend mick ronson
Wow. Queen plus Bowie and Mick Ronson. Pure undistilled awesomeness. RIP FM, DB and MR...
これを、WOWOWで昨日見ました。

まさかミックロンソンが出てくるなんて、まさかこの曲をこの場でクイーンとやるなんて、思ってもなかった。
