About Heroes

"Heroes" is a single by the Greek singer and Eurovision Song Contest winner, Helena Paparizou. The song was specially written to be the official theme song of the 2006 European Championships in Athletics, held in Paparizou's home town Gothenburg. The song is featured on Helena's second international album The Game of Love, which was released on November 15, 2006 in Scandinavia. The song is mainly in English, but does contain some Spanish lyrics such as 'viva los heros' — cognate with 'long live the heroes' — and with very little Greek such as 'Nikes gia panta' — which means 'victories forever'. "Heroes" was released in August 2006 in Sweden; becoming Paparizou's fifth Swedish single release. It was her first single which debuted at number one position in the Swedish Singles Chart and second to peak at number one. When "Heroes" entered the charts Paparizou's previous single "Mambo!" was still charting. On September 10, 2006, the song entered the Swedish hitlist Svensktoppen. more »

Desire, the fire, it's all in you
The passion, and action, you take me through
I'm living it, I'm loving it
This is where the dreams come alive
A shooting star in the night

Para siempre
Viva los heroes

To all the heroes, the rush of emotions
In this high and low, ah-ay-ah let's go
To all the heroes, we celebrate our nations
Let the whole world know, ah-ay-ah let's go
To all the heroes.

Emotions, are rushing out of control
A Notion, touching my body and soul
Can't fight it, can't hide it
Everything I'm feeling inside
Reflects the gold in your eyes

To all the heroes...

Viva los heroes, the rush of emotions
In this high and low, ah-ay-ah let's go
Viva los heroes, we celebrate our nations
Let the whole world know, ah-ay-ah let's go
Viva los heroes

Para siempre
Viva los heroes

To all the heroes, the rush of emotions
In this high and low, ah-ay-ah let's go
To all the heroes, we celebrate our nations
Let the whole world know, ah-ay-ah let's go
To all the heroes
