Now this is a bit-ta strange. Lots of good vibes go to Jan Kirschenbaum,
because he inspired this particular post. Let me clear this: I love
David Bowie in my most typically intypical way. I never liked best his
most well known mainstream hits, I always had loads and loads of my own
favourites. It also referred to "Heroes", most possibly the anthem, that
David is most frequently linked to in public mind. I know the story and
the poignance of this song, I am also more than strongly
aware of the fact how deep emotional connections it carries for
millions all over the world. I duly respect that, though I need to state
the fact that I wasn't always such a big admirer of it.
Still, there are performances of it where it just clicks in and carries
on undescribable magic. Here is "Heroes" from Berlin, 2002. David,
rejuvenated with the success and the critical acclaim of "Heaten" is
touring the album, giving the audiences the performances they will
remember throughoutly, with their bodies and their minds. Such was the
vibe of one of those nights. And - if not for a brilliant performance of
the song itself - this is a gem for a display of Bowie the human on
stage. Just get through his introduction to the performance. Being
already tagged as an iconic artist back then for no small amount of
reason, he was also a down to earth lovely guy, with a sense of humour,
amazing camarderie bringer to his bandmates and a really charismatic
frontman, a conferransieur just plainly one-of-a-kind. Just enjoy this
with all your might. Love you David, thank you for tons and worlds of
wonders.
