Produced by Bowie and Tony Visconti, it was recorded in July and August 1977, and released on 23 September 1977 . A product of Bowie's "Berlin" period, the track was not a huge hit in the UK or US at the time, but has gone on to become one of Bowie's signature songs . In January 2016, following Bowie's death, the song reached a new peak of number 12 in the UK Singles Chart . "' Heroes"' has been cited as Bowie's second-most covered song after "Rebel Rebel". </P> <P> Inspired by the sight of Bowie's producer / engineer Tony Visconti embracing his girlfriend by the Berlin Wall, the song tells the story of two lovers, one from East and one from West Berlin . Bowie's performance of "Heroes" on June 6, 1987 at the German Reichstag in West Berlin was considered a catalyst to the eventual fall of the Berlin Wall . Following Bowie's death in January 2016, the German government thanked Bowie for "helping to bring down the Wall", adding "you are now among Heroes". </P>
