Heroes by David Bowie is objectively the best song ever written, prove me wrong /mu/
It wasn't written by twenty one pilots
>>65026192
It's not even his best song.
Not even the best song on the album
Not even the best song amongst the first 3 tracks
>>65026192
It wasn't written by twenty one pilots
>>65026271
>>65026296
>>65026315
you have proved nothing by providing your opinion
David Bowie is inferior to Lou Reed
>>65026192
I actually agree OP, that song is completely perfect
You haven't heard more than 1000 albums, prove me wrong
>>65026192
listen to this song, then listen to some breakcore/drill n bass.
you'll forget this song in seconds
>>65026937
>havent even heard 500 albums
Music for this feel?
>>65026192
>>65027090
>haven't heard 50
>>65026903
overall, yes
but heroes is still 10/10 tho
>>65027098
nothing on this album is even a shaving of how iconic heroes is senpai
>>65026937
irrelevant, next.
>>65027134
You're obviously not a fan of Bowie that much then.
>>65026903
thats a given but i dont think it disproves my point
I agree with OP
>>65026338
And neither have you, you huge faggot.
>>65026192
You haven't even proved it yourself faggot. You're just stating an opinion like the rest of us.
>>65027165
Nah senpai I just think blackstar hits a totally different target than heroes, sure you could argue blackstar has more artistic integrity and is a better album bc of the whole death thing as supposed to the tired and true love song, but as far as a song for the ages I think heroes wins every time.
>>65027280
the point hit by blackstar > the point hit by heros
>>65027244
>>65027191
You want me to prove it eh? try listening to the song, if you think you have another option for the objectively best song ever written hmu
The songs has very basic chords:
D - G - C - Am - Em
>>65027344
thats EXACTLY what I just said
but i'll add this anyway, personally I dont think the song writing on blackstar compares to heroes, the whole cresendo of the minimalist structure with the maximalist sound is perfect, and the emotion comes from a much more relatable place for most people, not everybody is their deathbed writing a eulogy for one of the most fruitful careers in music, however, everybody not from 4chan feels love
>>65027352
Why bother? If I go listen to it again and come back and say it isn't the greatest song ever, not even the best one he ever made. It's still my opinion and it's still yours. Doing this to any song would have the same outcome. You can't disprove something that is an opinion. Cucked yourself.
OP is a faggot as always
>>65027444
have fun understanding music through ultimate guitar pleb
nice get tho
>>65026903
lou reed went to shit after velvet underground
bowie made his solo career relevant
he couldn't hold it on his own
>>65027469
>implying I bothered checking out the chords
I know how to play the song, faggot.
>>65026192
Why?
It really isn't all that special, at least from a musicianship standpoint.
>>65027467
/thread
>>65027554
it has many layers
like an ogre
>>65027554
>implying a songs simple structure denies its cultural and artistic merits
>>65026271
>>65026296
interesting how you're too scared to give your choices
cowards
>>65027621
it's obviously blackout
you bitch
>>65027613
Well it's a shame that none of that shit matters on /mu/.
Because Death Grips exist
>>65027630
le epik troll
>>65027621
Oh! You Pretty Things™
>>65027653
how is it not blackout?
>>65027670
xD lolzzzzz epik troll
>>65027467
Why bother?
well you are asking that question bc you know there is no reason to bother.
So in retort why did you bother replying to the thread if you dont have anything to contribute other than "I can't disprove your opinion, you can't disprove mine" that's something we all know from the get go and definitely not a discussion on heroes, david bowie, or the best song ever written, so keep your irrelevant cynicism's to yourself
It isn't even the best song on the album.
That would be Joe the Lion.
>>65027685
Okay OP, what do you think of Let's Dance? that my favorite Bowie song, and I do believe it hits a bit higher than heros
>>65027747
I like Space Oddity moar, but I get why you'd pick Let's Dance
>>65027747
modern love is better
>>65027118
>Haven't even heard ten
>>65027745
I meant Sons of the silence age
>>65027825
>hasn't listened to one
>>65027747
good choice senpai, that's probably one my favourites, probably has bad rep for being pop but i mean its david bowie he might as well have invented pop, bassline is killer, overall sound is cool af.
its undeniably more enjoyable than heroes so there's that but it just doesnt make you feel like your in a movie the way heroes does yknow
>>65026192
It's not hey ya by outkast
>>65027854
>don't even know what an album is
>>65027894
>doesn't even know
>>65027848
i meant blackout
silly me haha
>>65027907
>is an ethereal concept instead of a living creature
>>65027936
oops i keeep fucking up my posts
i meant heroes
>>65027990
>still is
>>65028004
>>65027990
>are
it's not down by 311
>>65026192
it is really great. I don't know if they're better but I think some other contenders might be
>Born to Run
>Yesterday
>God Only Knows
He raped a child.
>>65026192
I WISH I COULD SWIM
LIKE THE DOLPHINS
LIKE DOLPHINS CAN SWIM
nah for real though i love the song but it has some pretty stupid fucking lyrics. There are much better songs than Heroes on the album
>>65029120
i think the lyrics perfectly convey the desperation and emotion that "heroes" famous for
>>65029173
To me they signified how you become kind of an idiot when you're in love.
>>65026903
Heroes, Low, Ziggy Stardust, Station to Station, Hunky Dory, Blackstar, Scary Monsters, Aladdin Sane
literally all better than Transformer (Reed's best solo record), and the first 4 are on par with The Velvet Underground and Nico (Reed's best work overall), maybe Blackstar too
>>65026937
how do you have the time holy shit
does anyone else get some shoegaze vibes from some of the guitar?
>>65029101
legalize 15 year olds 2016
>>65029101
lucky kid
>>65029452
she was 13
>>65029101
I raped your mother
>>65029311
It's got that spacey quality that a lot of shoegaze has. It's the reverb, I think.
>>65029101
in some cases statutory rape isn't rape
this is one of those cases
Stairway to Heaven, try again bruh
>>65026192
cant desu
>>65026903
ugh lou reed can fucking suck a dick he's faggot who just fucking talks during all his songs
