"Heroine" is a song by British pop act Shakespears Sister, released in 1988 as a single from their debut album Sacred Heart. "Heroine" was released in most territories as a Double A-side with "Break My Heart (You Really)", which according to Siobhan Fahey was to "give a more rounded picture of what I'm about".{{YouTube|sDGmtOI5Rnc|Shakespears Sister 1988 Mick Brown Interview}} In North American territories however, both songs were released as separate A-side singles.[http://www.discogs.com/Shakespears-Sister-Heroine/master/56965 Shakespears Sister - Heroine at Discogs]
