Well, I used to like that song from David Bowie very much, called "Heroes". Now today I wanted to listen to it again on youTube. But all I get are awful versions like this one.

I thought it was a wonderful song only sang along a guitar! (Like in Space Oddity), I can't find that one anymore. I'm confused.

No, the original version from the album of the same name had all those weird synth effects and Bowie sounding desperate at times. Not that much guitar.

I actually heard The Wallflowers' version of it long before I ever heard Bowie's, so the lyrics sound rearranged and out of place to me. The Wallflowers weren't that bad at times, but not particularly innovative and had a hard time following the singer's father. They were tolerable pop for a time.
