Mariah Carey 至今拥有18首美国冠军单曲，其中最感人至深的一首就是Hero。歌曲来自1993年个人第三张专辑Music Box，由Carey与唱片制作人 Walter Afanasieff联手创作。这首中板抒情金曲原本是写给电影《Hero》的，而且计划由拉丁女歌星Gloria Estefan演唱。后来Mariah Carey并没有把内容与电影多做关联，决定自己演绎。歌曲表现如果顽强努力，每个人都可以成为自己的英雄这样的主旨，是Carey现场演绎次数最多的曲目之一，也是被重新演绎或致敬次数最多的作品之一。
If you look inside your heartYou don't have to be afraidIf you reach into your soulAnd the sorrow that you knowAnd then a hero comes alongWith the strength to carry onAnd you cast your fears asideAnd you know you can surviveSo when you feel like hope is goneLook inside you and be strongAnd you'll finally see the truthWhen you face the world aloneNo one reaches out a handIf you search within yourselfAnd the emptiness you feltAnd then a hero comes alongWith the strength to carry onAnd you cast your fears asideAnd you know you can surviveSo when you feel like hope is goneLook inside you and be strongAnd you'll finally see the truthDreams are hard to followAnd then a hero comes alongWith the strength to carry onAnd you cast your fears asideAnd you know you can surviveSo when you feel like hope is goneLook inside you and be strongAnd you'll finally see the truthThat a hero lies in you
