Today's track: "Heroes" by David Bowie

What song makes you feel like you’re breaking free?

This song… wow, just wow!

I can’t think of any other song that captures the feeling of breaking free quite like David Bowie’s “Heroes”. It’s not just the Berlin Wall–inspired lyrics, it’s everything. The whole feeling that the music and lyrics convey together.

And to add some visuals to that same feeling — the final scene in the movie “The Perks of Being a Wallflower”. I get goosebumps just thinking about that last shot through the tunnel to the sound of “Heroes”.

Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day
