Till Lindemann & Apocalyptica - Helden (David Bowie cover) REACTION & REVIEW! FIRST TIME HEARING!

[@Pennywise-hn5qw]

Tills voice is unbeatable❤😊 Love this man so much

[@andreagruber5813]

That is a great score indeed and I love this version as well. Nothing against David Bowie, I like the original too, but Till puts a lot of emotion in this one and I love it. Thanks and enjoy the weekend. ❤

[@IIIIIIDC]

One of my favorite songs, of all

[@annegretkasten6277]

It's also one of my favorite pieces.😂

[@marta150]

How did I ever miss this version. I've heard Lindemann do it in English but this is way better. Love it. Perfect that someone from east Germany sang this.

[@effectosis742]

I was a fan of Apocalyptica but I never thought I will ever like Till's voice... I was even afraid to listen but I love this Till's tribute to Bowie . Never heared him singing that passionatly...

[@annegretkasten6277]

Why, Till has a beautiful voice.

[@klaymor73]

The first time I heard the cover I didn't linked to David Bowie. I was so mesmerized with the cellos.

[@larryc3860]

Apocalyptica often plays on stage and in studio with Rammstein, Epica and other symphonic metal bands....they are extremely talented, playing heavily amplified and distorted cellos........unique and good........

[@TugarunnerLx]

That's new to me too. It's marvellous!!

[@TheAquarius1978]

Oh dude lol, if you like this one you should take a look at their album lol, some of their colaborations are frikking amazing.

"Heroes" was one of the David Bowie songs used in the 1981 German film "Christiane F. - Wir Kinder von Bahnhoff Zoo" (We children from train station "Zoo") in which David Bowie also played a role as himself. It's the real -time story about a fourteen year old, heroine-addicted girl who first shot-up after a David Bowie concert. It's an excellent, but very dark movie and for me for always connected to the song "Heroes". It's been over three decades since I saw that movie, but I seem to remember someone translating "heroes" in German to Christiane while listening to the song. This version by Till does more-or-less the same with the lyrics; a straight translation of the song (it helps that I also speak German). It's a great cover and the score is well-deserved.

[@anjakuemski]

The movie soundtrack had Bowie singing a German verse himself, but I don't remember if he did so in the movie.

There are some artists I'm very strict on, when it comes to covers, especially when the original is so good. David Bowie is one of them. And have to say I love this cover. It's done so well. And of course being german, the translated lyrics into my mother tongue put a special spin on it. Including the meaning of them. And, yes I'm bias, regarding Till singing it, because I like his voice so much. His voice is so rich. Loved your reaction, dear. With love from Germany ❤

[@FionaDowdeswell-Simmons-sm9yo]

Heroes has always been my favourite Bowie song and normally, I'd see a cover of it as sacrilege. Normally. Till brings even more emotion to the song as a man from the former East and Apocalyptica bring their own special signature to the score. Loved it from the first time I heard it which, believe me, is a huge compliment to both Till and Apocalyptica.

[@sheilacampbell1635]

Please do more Apocalyptica😮❤🤘

[@michelleponzio]

I really enjoyed this song. I never heard this version before. I agree that it does feel heavier. I also agree that it's better that it's done in German. It definitely made it a cover, but not a true copy. And yay, 1st comment 😅

[@wildwine6400]

David Bowie also did the song in German

[@imrehundertwasser7094]

It's not a recent translation btw, there's a 1970s version by Bowie himself singing "Helden" in German.

[@conorlynch4595]

To be clear it's a cover of Bowie's "Helden", Bowie had released Heroes in French and German as well as the original English

[@AndreaBrennan-l3c]

I think Richard kruspe did guest guitar on this track

[@anjizetland-von-kiesel3346]

He absolutely did the guitar on this track. Would love to hear more of this collaboration. Works beautifully together.

[@tosa2522]

Sorry David Bowie, but I like Till's cover of your song better. I just like Till's voice too much.🥰

[@m.c.photography8357]

Love this version. Motorhead did a good cover also. Really enjoy the channel.

[@THEDavidHeretic]

Wait, what?

[@m.c.photography8357]

@THEDavidHeretic Being Motorhead, it's heavier but more true to the original.

[@anjizetland-von-kiesel3346]

Yes really! Here is the link. Obviously not a reaction request because the list is probably so long now I won't live long enough to hear it!!! I'm 62. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGGZqoSYadGVhs0si=ntOlrhPMUncy_jA7 Enjoy.

[@THEDavidHeretic]
