This video is very well done. It’s almost magical. The song by Bowie is great of course, but this cover by Motorhead is just unreal. It’s almost better than the original. I just got turned on to this song too. It’s from an album of cover versions in 2017 that I’ve never heard of.
Those lyrics are just gorgeous, too. Just perfect.
I, I will be king
And you shall be my queen
Though nothing will never drive them away
But we can beat them forever and ever
Cause we can be heroes just for one day[Verse 1]
And you, you are insane
And I, I am the same
Cause we’re lovers and that is the truth
Yes we’re lovers and we are the proof[Refrain]
Though nothing will keep us together
We could stop time forever and ever
We can be heroes
What d’you say?[Verse 3]
I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing by the wall (by the wall)
And the guns were all ready to fire (ready to fire)
And we kissed as though we never can fall (never can fall)[Refrain]
And the shame was on another city
Oh we can beat them forever and ever
Then we could be heroes just for one day
We can be heroes we can be heroes
We can be heroes just for one day
We can be heroes
