I don´t understand what´s the point about re-singing this song and making this ridiculous video for it, when everything about the original was sooooo much better.

What? Why?



It's so embarrassing how bad she sounds compared to her younger days.

Me neither. "Hero" is overrated. In terms of ballads, I think Mariah's best single to date is "Without You". She did a great cover of that song.
"And When The Groove Is Dead And Gone, You Know That Love Survives, So We Can Rock Forever" RIP MJ heart

"Baby, that was much too fast"...Goodnight dear sweet Prince. I'll love you always heart

My brother hates Hero lol

At his 5th grade promotion ceremony, his class had to sing the song for the school, he was pissed!

To this day, he will not listen to that track lol

and One Sweet Day....I remember after 9/11, they played it NON STOP

I don't really think her voice lack the passion or the range,,,,my issue is with the song itself.

I love the original "Hero," and I've unfortunately heard two renditions of the song today. This, and this:

Okay, I'm not saying Rihanna is a great singer or anything, but that wasn't terrible. I mean, all things considered.

Edit: I was wrong. I got to the second verse and...let's just leave it at that. lol

Mariah´s best ballad of that album is Without You, which is a cover, but also this one.
