The titular track of Bowie’s 12th studio album, “Heroes” is still considered one of the eccentric rock legend’s most career-defining works – setting aside “Space Oddity” and “Changes.” Released in 1977, the song has no shortage of Bowie’s inscrutable lyrics, expressing his longing for the ability to swim “like dolphins can swim.” His inspiration ca...
Another song about superheroes that references the red-caped superhuman from planet Krypton, this track included the byline “Is it Gettin’ Heavy?” It’s as much about the idea of waiting around for heroic figures to come to the rescue as it is about the heroes themself. At the same time, it postulates whether there’s anything to heavy for even Super...
The legendary pop artist either formerly known as Prince, forever known as Prince, and sometimes only known as anindescribable symbol, did his part in contributing to the soundtrack of superheroes. “Batdance” was written for the 1989 Batman film and quickly topped the charts as the number one song in the US.

The track endeavors to tackle an analysis of political philosophy, comparing the left-wing ...

By the end of it, you might be tempted to re-watch this classic superhero franchise. It might seem a bit quaint since...
No matter what you think of the band Nickelback, it’s hard to dispute that their lead singer’s installment to the superhero songbook is one that’s both memorable and iconic. Maybe it’s because the track was written specifically for the soundtrack of the 2002 Spider-Man movie, which will forever mark the start – or end – of a very specific era in su...
Just as one might say there aren’t enough female superheroes, it’s hard to find enough superhero songs featuring female vigilantes. XTC filled that need in their ninth album, Skylarking, referencing the DC character in this track. However, the band has stated that the Supergirl character is really meant to be an amalgam of all women everywhere.
In 1975, this former Beatle and one of his most popular post-Fab-Four bands added their name to the list of superhero songwriters. The lyrics are highly narrative, referencing in no uncertain way the Marvel characters of Crimson Dynamo, Magneto, and Titanium Man. Even legendary artist and creator Stan Lee gave the song his stamp of approval, so tha...
The Traits with Roy Head created a song that sheds some sympathetic light on the mean, green fighting machine. What makes this song all the more impressive is that it was initially sold exclusively through advertisements tucked in the back of Marvel’s comic books. The fact that people still remember this song today is a mark of the perfection in so...
No one can remember the ’90s without hearing the Spin Doctors at least playing faintly in the background. Many people don’t realize that they had their hand in the superhero songwriting world, which might be more obvious if you think about the title of their album, Pocket Full of Kryptonite. “Jimmy Olsen’s Blues” is a bit more of a subtle reference...
