Track Description
Available in:
"Heroes" is a song by the Swedish DJ and music producer Alesso. A remake of the song, titled "Heroes (We Could Be)" featuring the vocals of Swedish singer Tove Lo was released as an official single in 2014 and has become a much greater hit, charting in a number of countries. In the US, the remake went to number one on the dance chart.

The song's lyrics are partially taken from "'Heroes'" (1977) by David Bowie. The lyrics of each of the stanzas differ entirely from Bowie's. The subject of the song has been updated from that of irony-touched love in the shadow of the Berlin Wall in Bowie's version to the present-day street-life interactions of a couple.

The title of the song also drops the extra quotation marks that are present in the title of Bowie's song. In that song, the extra quotes in the title were an affectation meant to invoke an ironic mood. So far, the song has peaked at number thirty-five on the US Billboard Hot 100, making it Alesso's first and Tove Lo's second top-forty single on the chart.

The music video was released on 10 October 2014. It introduces teenagers with supernatural abilities, who are detained in a high security prison. An angel is being kept under strict supervision as scientists compel her to swallow drugs designed to remove her powers. Meanwhile, Alesso runs toward and enters the facility and to release the angelic woman. As he walks past the super human teens, they exhibit their abilities and break free. This triggers an alarm, allowing him and the woman to escape from the scientists. As they approach the top of the building, they decide to fall. As they fall, the angel flies away. However, Alesso falls on a car and perishes. He never came back alive in the video. The final scene involves the teens escaping into the night. Tove Lo is also featured in the video.
