Background and composition


"Heroes" is the third single by Shakila Karim.[1] The song was co-written by Karim and her father, Karim Ullah, with Karim putting together the melody to accompany her father's lyrics.[2] She played the piano on the recording and created the vocal ideas, including the chorus and harmonies for the song.[3]

The song was released in aid of the Help for Heroes charity which supports the rehabilitation of injured British service personnel from conflicts such as Iraq and Afghanistan.[1][4] It was recorded and produced free of charge[2] in November 2011.[5][6] A video was produced by Big Buoy TV, intercutting Karim's performance with Ministry of Defence footage of British soldiers in Afghanistan.[2]
