“Heroes, for me, was always one of the great Bowie tracks. It is heroism in the face of oppression and desperation; it’s something triumphant despite the desperate situation" -

those are the words of Peter Gabriel , I do however concur .

Love pretty much everything but to pin it down it can only be...

Album: Man who sold the world

and from the very same album

Single: Width of a circle (orginally was only half the lengh but imo better for the change and fab guitar joining them together)


He swallowed his pride and puckered his lips
And showed me the leather belt round his hips
My knees were shaking my cheeks aflame
He said "You'll never go down to the Gods again"
(Turn around,go back!)

I don't have a favourite album, but if push comes to shove I'll say Diamond Dogs.

Tracks wise I would say John I'm Only Dancing.
