Im 68 and I saw him twice in the 80s truly amazing performances so sorry you left us so soon maybe when the time comes round we can all see you in concert again in that big show in the sky…we do miss you
Yes I,m 64 and still listening to Bowie as much as I did 50 years ago.What a great Performance Artist he was.Had the courage to kill off Ziggy,Aladdin Sane and The Thin White Duke at the height of their success.Then had the confidence to perform as David Bowie.Took his die-hard fans like me with him all the way.Love you David, always have,ways will.Miss you so much.Still, I know your in a good place now,because you were such a good guy in this world.And thanks for all the joy your music has given,especially this tune.
Ditto....I'm the same age and have the exact same reaction. When an artist, regarldess of medium, can have THAT kind of an effect on an audience, you know you are in the presence of true genius!!!
yes same here.62 and still get goose bumps and real nostalgic..over every song I hear both from Bowie and all music of that time 70s and early 80s and 60s.. just a great time to be alive.. and it is really hard to believe I am old.but not mentaly feel 38..
Now i'm 63, and now i rediscover among others david bowie. This is music. Not to compare with the music today. Now I'm going on a journey of discovery and listening to the songs from back then again. And enjoy them now with a more mature ear.
"Just for one day " That's all I have ever asked for that's all I have ever wanted. Thank you David for letting me be a Hero just for one day. When I hear you sing this song I can feel it. You will never be forgotten. We Love You.
I don't know if it's just me, but Gail Ann Dorsey added a special dimension to the Bowie musical experience. We're so fortunate to have RUclips to make us appreciate that David Bowie walked our planet as a polymath.
Only 1 time in life did l meet a knoble giant as him in a Camden beer garden what very Human nonHuman and kind Giant. God's bless you brother for your time and kindness. WELCOME TO vallhalla
I was in Toronto in 1983 during his show. I stood outside the enclosure outside the fence, but you could hear his band clearly. Heroes moved me almost to tears. What a musical genius!
Yes, and a part of me as well as many more of us! R.I.P. Thin White Duke, Aladdin Sane, Ziggy Stardust and all of the other beautiful and unforgettable parts of what made up David Bowie. Thank you for sharing yourself with all of us! We love and miss you so much!
Mate that was blinding,Bowie at his best,and the lead bass player and drummer,take a bow,that was epic,I just seen Bowie in concert,yeehaa,what a jam that was,and the good thing about it is I can watch it anytime,thankyou David Bowie,for being who you are,Toal pleasure just seeing and hearing your music,r.i.p to a super human being. Mick Goldcoast Australia.
Perché sapevi che per te era l'inizio della fine amore mio .ma tutto quello che sei stato e hai creato ti fa ' eroe eterno unico per sempre. Ti amo e ti benedico dovunque tu sia
being 80, I've seen all the great ones in their early years and watched them grow to perfection. David Bowie was one the great ones. We all love Mick but Keith is the man.
Only once in a century does someone like Bowie come along . Listening to a full musical career of his is astonishing . Ziggy to Young Americans , then everything after . Omg …… cancer is a ultimate crime to all . RIP. our “ Thin White Duke “ 😢😔
... early 1980s an I embarked in decades of working non-stop 12 hour workdays. I'd get home to my shack and play Kraftwerk, Devo, Robert Fripp albums. Then Bowie came out with Heroes and swept the deck,..
Mr Bowie as a sixty year old man you were and still are the man !! We all wished we could have been as cool as you. Thanks for all the good and bad times in our life's.
My son is in his early 30s. He summed Bowie up by saying, ‘he was such a cool guy’. David is sadly not with us anymore but he has left behind many, many wonderful songs for us to listen to and we will…….
One of the Best Concerts I've ever been to was Bowie in '78 at The Fabulous Forum! Thank You Mr. Bowie for allowing me to be a "Hero"...just for 1 day!
I am still in disbelief that I was able to see him in 1978. I was so young. So much was lost on me. But it was amazing. And then again, in 83 for Serious Moonlight. And then again for Sound and Vision. Such a vocalist. His voice, his control, his ability to adjust on the fly to what his voice was doing that night. And the songs he wrote...heartbreakingly pointed and insightful. I hope has has the peace he so richly earned.
Towards the rnd Gale Ann Hurley is so united with Bowie, so proud & overjoyed & at peace & triumphant & wanting to just dissolve into the joy of becoming a Hero, there, that day, alongside him, as everyone can. This song is the 5th Symphony of Rock. Bowie's 5th!
For the Gentleman who donned so many hats & looked great doing it no matter which one he wore. Happy Birthday to you David, you are missed & loved ole boy. Truly the first being to ever really explore Mars🪐 & outerspace🌌 You're music live's on forever & we are eternally grateful, thank you... 🛸
@@daviddemaria3982 Thanks David... I must say I do miss Bowie. One of the most most talented musician's we ever had around. I would love to hear his take on the state of madness we seem to have gotten ourselves into since his passing... With the Pandemic & all ? I always enjoyed listening to him speak about things. Obviously miss so much about him... Just an incredible man from another time in space... 👣🌶🛸
I looked up the word crescendo in the dictionary - and every time this song comes up. Might be the best written song ever.... R.I.P. D. Bowie. You deserve to be in peace for eternity because you have provided us so much joy and inspiration.
I have loved this song since I first heard it, I was 11 years old at the time, but this is a very incredible and emotional live version of this song one of the most beautiful live versions, definitely. I love his music, he was brilliant.
I love it that it starts so relaxed, so much so that he doesn't come in at the start by accident, then the casual drinking from a mug, then to the passion of the song. The band was all together........
I feel like I won the Lottery...,I was blessed to see Bowie Live many times in my Life There will never be another time to live in life like the 70zz and 80zzz .😎
I posted a month ago, but I listen to this almost every day! Multiple times usually. And loud. I look forward to getting my home theater system set up. Soon hopefully! I will with Take Five (Brubeck), Return to Me (Dino), this and then Summertime (Ella). A good start. And Claire DeLune.
Ich kann erst seit kurzem seine Videos sehen ohne zu weinen.Bin voller Dankbarkeit für all die Jahre seiner musikalischen Begleitung. Er bleibt eine feste Größe in meinem Leben
I am now 73, and have always been a lover of good music of all kinds. This was possibly one of the greatest artists of all time, so far. R.I.P.
Best ever hands down.
Yes, sir .
The one and only….the great David Bowie…..kids like me ( I’m 71 ) were so lucky to grow up with this magnificent performer, we miss you David…..
I'm only 61 ❤😂
100%
Im 68 and I saw him twice in the 80s truly amazing performances so sorry you left us so soon maybe when the time comes round we can all see you in concert again in that big show in the sky…we do miss you
@@kennyk3989 Amen
I saw him twice too, the most memorable gigs ever. Makes me so happy to have lived at the same as him. Lovely human bean!
Although I'm older (65) I thank the good Lord that I was around to experience and appreciate Bowie's talent. Yes, he is missed
To me, this Talent come from Above 😮!!!!!!!!!
@@estebangranados2583Amen 😊

Me too we are blessed ❤❤❤
Yeah....way more than we likely appreciated as teens.
This song is uplifting and sad at the same time,and David's voice is so emotional. It's just a magical song that I never tire of hearing.
Yes I,m 64 and still listening to Bowie as much as I did 50 years ago.What a great Performance Artist he was.Had the courage to kill off Ziggy,Aladdin Sane and The Thin White Duke at the height of their success.Then had the confidence to perform as David Bowie.Took his die-hard fans like me with him all the way.Love you David, always have,ways will.Miss you so much.Still, I know your in a good place now,because you were such a good guy in this world.And thanks for all the joy your music has given,especially this tune.
One of those people who are able to electrify a crowd of 50,000 - just by walking on stage. Charisma and style, talent and presence.
You are correct. Charisma, style with a unique voice.
Especially with Tina ❤
You said it my friend,I agree totally.
My heart is still broken. I went to every concert in Australia 🇦🇺. I'm 58yrs old and think, what the hell is wrong with me ???😢😢 that voice ahhh
This version, and the Motorhead cover, are my two favorites
Best song, best artist. Now I,m 62 years and my life passes by every time, listening this phenomenal masterpiece and it always ends with a big smile.
Ditto....I'm the same age and have the exact same reaction. When an artist, regarldess of medium, can have THAT kind of an effect on an audience, you know you are in the presence of true genius!!!
how do you keep it together, i can't help but cry every time i listen to this song performed live
yes same here.62 and still get goose bumps and real nostalgic..over every song I hear both from Bowie and all music of that time 70s and early 80s and 60s.. just a great time to be alive.. and it is really hard to believe I am old.but not mentaly feel 38..
You’re just getting started brother 💪
Every album from his early days, all the changes he was a genius.
Im 60 years old I've been listening to this mans music since 1973. Charismatic, cool,iconic. A true genius..what a performance...R.I.P.David Bowie❤
One of the few songs I can listen to over and over and never tire of.
Brilliant he was a great admlrer of Scott walker another great
I saw David in '76 at Selland Arena. I was 16. At 63 yrs old, I am still in awe of this performer!!!😊😊
Seeing & Listening To DAVID IS PLEASURE
I saw him in Brussels in ‘76 and the world would never be he same after that
Now i'm 63, and now i rediscover among others david bowie. This is music. Not to compare with the music today.
Now I'm going on a journey of discovery and listening to the songs from back then again. And enjoy them now with a more mature ear.
Totally amazing after all these years. There are no more entertainers like David Bowie.
there are no more David Bowies, there should be only one , and there is only one, of each manifestation of greatness...
"Just for one day " That's all I have ever asked for that's all I have ever wanted. Thank you David for letting me be a Hero just for one day. When I hear you sing this song I can feel it. You will never be forgotten. We Love You.
I don't know if it's just me, but Gail Ann Dorsey added a special dimension to the Bowie musical experience. We're so fortunate to have RUclips to make us appreciate that David Bowie walked our planet as a polymath.
Gail was great with him. Loved her singing Freddie’s parts for “Under Pressure” ❤️🔥❤️
@@cirenosnor5768 That's exactly how I felt. Thank you.
Agreed- the bass line on Heroes is very underrated, and she manages to lay down a sparse, yet full sound/ groove..
Earl Slick's guitar has a haunting souls throughout the performance as well.
Q. Was she the bass player?👍
The immense greatness of David Bowie which reinterprets this milestone always in a different but always amazing way 👍
That drummer is SOLID.
I'm 71 and still listen every day, what happened to music., broken hearted,
Io ho 73 anni e mi commuovo ascoltandola
In the early 80's my GF and I used to get drunk and crank this way up and sing along at the top of our lungs!
It was Our Song!!
Im '81and DB will always be with me
When all my favorite musicians are gone I won't want to be here anymore!
It’s an honor to have lived at the same time as David Bowie...
and other heroes
Well said brother.......the man was a Prince.
that´s right

I was in Toronto in 1983 during his show. I stood outside the enclosure outside the fence, but you could hear his band clearly. Heroes moved me almost to tears. What a musical genius!
I got Tingles ✝️ when I read your Comment 😁👍👋
Yep, hearing you, saw him sing Heroes live vin '78. I was 17. To this day it moves me "like nothing before".
The world will never see the likes of this again rest easy Mr B ✌️🙏🌈
He was just brilliant. Loved him since I was a young woman. I'm now 70. He will always be remembered. X
😀👍👍

What a star! So sadly missed 💕
His band is TIGHT. Locked in. So good.
Absolutely this is almost studio quality
Bowie was a great performer, better on stage than in the studio...
I'm lucky enough to have Gail as a friend, she says that David had a way of getting the best out of every one without ever pushing
Never mind your bloody solar eclipse. This right here is the kind of thing that can bring us together,
Totally lovers, we fell it . Women 😊
We are together ❤️ we'll said.
What eclipse, yea agreed 👍 we are alive!

Every one of them, on top of their game, cool as fuck. Big Gail, wow!
It's really very profound: each person, in their own way, at a certain time in their life, assumes a unique heroism; we can be heroes!
The most intense and emotional version I ever heard, absolutely phenomenal....
I absolutely must concur, Concert for NY was brilliant as well,but this performance is my personal favorite..
Yes I agree with you this version is great and emotinal too! ❤️🎶❤️
My eyes started leaking

Gail Anne Dorsey bass, amazing
Such a song, such a man, it touches my heart and makes the tears come, sleep well sweet prince. X

I’m 61 & have loved him all through my teens. He & Robert Smith the greatest ❤❤❤
LOVE this performance of Heroes!!
He is wailing this tune not merely singing ...sooo passionate just like he is♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Absolute legend. He also had a knack of gathering the best talent for his band.
My son is in his early 30s. He summed Bowie up by saying, ‘he was such a cool guy’. David is sadly not with us anymore but he has left behind many, many wonderful songs for us to listen to and we will…….

Fantastic! I was there too on the floor a dozen or so rows back..great!
The Fabulous Forum. Wonderful memories.
I saw this tune live in West Berlin 1977. I was 16 back then
no one like him he had every thing genius sad loss
so few true artists can create an aura wherever and whenever they perform. He is a master of this. Bravo.
What a bunch of talented musicians playing around him. David had it going on! Rest in peace. We miss you David.
I absolutely love it it's my fault song of David Bowie 🙏🙏🙏
Will never be forgotten
What a unique and wonderful voice he had - tremendous range and expressiveness.
