Mariah Carey is an astounding talent, and a voice beyond a metaphor (because NOTHING compares to her pipes!). "Hero" is an EXTREMELY difficult song to sing, but Ms. Carey has handled it like...O god! Unbelievable!... And the cresendo that starts with "Hold on, there will be tomorrow" is simply stunning! And when I first heard her sing the line, "..In time you'll find a wayyyyyyyy", it blew me away. Mariah Carey is invincible, and a beauty (both vocal and physical) to behold.

I believe that this is one of the greatest power ballards that have ever been released. Think how many emotional and delicate situations this songs represents? This was the songs that was played after the devistation of 9/11. The powerful lyrics were able to reach out and unite individuals from all walks of life. This song will be around for ever and Mariah will be too!

Ask yourself this? Have you ever heard anyone sing like Mariah Carey? And before you say yea of course, Whitney Houston etc etc......then you would be very wrong as not only can Mariah hit the shinying C note (think thats what it is called!!) but she also writes her own songs, so unlike the Whitney's and the Cline Dions, when you hear Mariah's music, it is HER music. And for her being a diva, who wouldn't act like that if they wasn't in her shoe's, and thats just saying if what you read is true! All in all not only is Mariah stunning she sings like an angel and "hero" must be one of the best songs writen!

I absolutely love this song. I'm learning it at the moment with my singing teacher and it's one of those songs you can really get your teeth into and learn a lot from. But, no one can sing it like mariah!

This is an awful song by someone who has probably never made a decent record.

I find it quite astonishing that this over sentlimentle, toothless flatulation can even be on the same page as something like imagine or even anything by the beatles the stones or any vaguely talented individual.

Are you kidding me? Higher than 'Imagine'?

Ok, so she doesn't do stairs and she has flunkeys to hold her glass and pour her champagne and when she holds out her hand and she is a diva extrodinaire, but no doubting she has the voice and the curves of an angel...shame about the fact she can't act for toffee though.

people can relate to it because it can make them feel different about themselves and it will make them believe things that are differnt and they can feel better about themselves.

Its a really heart felt song and i think it is the best because i am going to sing it in a school concert and i cant wait. so i think the song is really great and is well loved.

Mariah's music has captured my heart ever since I have heard the high pitch intro to her debut "Vision of Love" in 1990. She came a long way ever since and is one unparalleled phenomenon, known for her god-given talent, that multi-octave vocal range that climbs higher and higher just to drop down further and further. "Hero" is probably one of the most heartfelt modern, contemporary ballads that have ever been written. Walter Afanasieff has penned many of Mariah's co-productions but this one is of eternal beauty.

This song brings helps you believe in yourself and that your worth something no matter what others say

Trystan, Santa Clara California
If you actually read the words without the music or the vocals of Mariah the message is pretty clear, but when you add Mariah's amazing voice the song is down right profound. Suprisingly that gets lost on a lot of people that just want to hate her, its a great song both lyrically and vocally and only Mariah could have done it this deeply.

Dallis Stockman/Sardinia, Ohio
This song Hero is one of Mariah's best songs, it is so deep, and you can feel the emotion. This is the best love song.

Katie Johnson from liverpool
i think mariah has an amazing voice and she puts all of her heart into every song

Anton Balogun. Smethwick.West midlands
Mariah Carey's songs are about situations that she has dealt with through out her life. She has inspired so many people through her music because it is about believing in yourself and how any obstacle that comes in your way is a blessing from god to make ourselves stronger for the obstacle can be overcomed by having faith within your self.

Bruce Baker-Johnson / Kirk Hallam, Derby
So far this would have been "my" No:1. It has everything a great ballad should have!

nic bham
