Sir, when a man is tired of Bowie, he is tired of life!

GREAT song but overused and overplayed. Also Bowie does HIS song the best in all its variations.

Hopefully, you will some day find a way to get past this injustice.

PLEASE RE ENCODE, there are artifacts from cd ripping present on this file.   It is a poor show that this is not resolved.   If the artist took time to craft the song perfectly then RP should at least not play a scratched record.   the BBC wouldn't put up with this.
 
Sorry for the delay on fixing this. All better now.

From reading the comments, I gather that nostalgia of some kind is playing a big part in the exceptionally high rating of this song. As a first time hearer, I respectfully disagree. PSD next time around for me.

Was convinced by my 11 year old granddaughter to go see The Perks of Being a Wallflower the other day.  The movie she really wanted to see was sold out.  Anyway, this song was the high point of the movie for me.  Reminded me of my dear, departed friend Charlie who burned his way through S.F., Barcelona and Berlin back in the day.  Charlie turned me on to Bowie.  Blessings to you Charlie.

This got a bit overplayed in the UK this summer as it was adopted as the song of the UK teams in the Olympics and the Paralympics, but I still can't get tired of hearing it.

Maybe the Problem is not with RP but your connection. Have a good day anyways. Nadita

Hey RP listeners, "Heroes" is a Great song, but is it really 1.4 points better then Springsteen's "Thunder Road?"
 
Actually IMHO it is 2-3 points better.   But then again I have never really like Springsteen and I hail from NJ originally.

It is, according to the people who voted on it.  It's not really worth worrying about.

This and "Man who Stole the World" are by far my favorite Bowie songs.  That being said, this still doesn't get much more than a 6 from me.
 



Well, I disagree, and you can put me in the "Bowie was/is a genius camp." But I do find it interesting that this song shows up on many a "greatest rock songs ever" list.
