2. Outrageous! I love it!

3. That is my favorite version of him doing Heroes. I love the way he's worked with that

over the years. It's way different that when he first did it, but he can't sing it like that any more. It is so cool how he did it in later years. I have that Reality tour DVD. That version is pretty good too.

4. Love It

Interestingly, I just watched "The Replacements" on HBOMax the other day.
Heroes is the song that kicks in at the triumphant climax.
So, I just heard the original version on Wednesday.

5. It's also used amazingly at the end of JoJo Rabbit (in German)

Watched it 3 times thru now, and I cried every time ... it's so perfect it's ridiculous.

6. They Played It At World Music Theater...

...when my wife & I saw the Glass Spider tour, with Reeves Gabriel's on guitar. It was fantastic.
Reeves is such a great player. A master of coaxing whatever sound that fits out of a guitar.

8. I like Reeves ... first Tin Machine album came out when I'z in college

Listened to it quite a bit circa '88 iirc.

He can't quite replace Porl Thompson for me in The Cure though

9. Ambivalent

Though I don't think Reeves is right for The Cure.
I think the music needs to have more grit & edge for his greatest contribution to take place.
Though I think he could do some great stuff on Disintegration. That seems right up his alley, if Robert freed him up.

7. Love it! One of my favorite performances of my favorite Bowie song. Not

quite the favorite, though, since I prefer this one - live in Paris, 2002:
