about

I think covers are difficult. While you could love a song, you may find yourself struggling to relate to it in a way that fuels an honest performance. This was not an issue with Heroes. The more I learned about the deeper meaning of the song the more it spoke to me. Being isolated from loved ones is certainly a theme that I think everyone can relate to right now. I don't feel ashamed to say on one occasion I caught myself tearing up during a vocal take when I began visualizing the two lovers separated by the Berlin Wall that are portrayed in the song.

Admittedly a bit part of the inspiration for this came from watching Jojo Rabbit. The day after I couldn't get the song out of my head or shake just how beautifully it worked in the movie. I picked up a guitar and quickly had the chord progression figured out along with a rough vocal that felt comfortable for me. A few minutes later Kristin had joined me and was playing around using the pitch bend on the keyboard to simulate the lead guitar. Fast forward 3 or so weeks and here we are!

I hope you enjoy it. Listen with headphones or on real speakers if you can!
