Anyone here in 2024🎉?

I wish this was on Spotify so I could add it to my playlists!

2024 and i still listen to this song on replay . Beautiful take, thank you!

Here in 2023 and it’s still one of my favorite versions to this song

My daughter loves this song she sings it all the time. She is 14 and has a beautiful God given voice!! You inspired her so thank you to Ella Bowen

2019 and I'm still loving this version of the song. I actually prefer this version better. The acoustic makes the song so much more sentimental. ❤❤

Damn that voice.

I love this version. It's so soft. I would often sit by the window and daydream about my "hero", even if he is nonexistent 😅. This song was on repeat and I would constantly sing along.

I swear, this song gives me chills every time I hear it

I found this song from the movie " foot loose" and ive loved the song ever since always gives me chills

This is by far my favorite version of this song. I honestly like this one better than the original. Side note, every time I hear this song I think of Shrek... EVERY. TIME.

Ugh. My hero died on June 11th. She will always be my hero. R.I.P. Christina Victoria Grimmie March 12th, 1994 - June 11th, 2016 💔😭

this is mine and my step moms song ....we both wait for my father(her husband) to come home from deployment.... i love it adding yo playlist...thank you to all millitary personal...

This hit one hell of a nerve.

Lyrics: 1 2 3 Where have all the good men gone And where are all the gods Where's the street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed Late at night I toss and turn and dream of what I need I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night He's gotta be strong He's gotta be fast And he's gotta be larger than life, larger than life Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da da da da da da da Somewhere after midnight in my wildest fantasies Somewhere just beyond my reach There's someone reaching back for me Racing on the thunder And rising with the heat Isn't there a Superman to sweep me off my feet I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night He's gotta be strong He's gotta be fast And he's gotta be larger than life I pray the mountains meet the heavens above Where the lightning splits the sea I could swear there's someone somewhere watching me Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the raging flood Oh, his approach is like fire in my blood I'll meet a hero And then we'll dance till the morning light Dreaming, he will lead me Held tight, tonight's the night I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night He's gotta be strong He's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light He's gotta be sure He's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life, larger than life Da da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da da da da da da da Larger than life Larger than life Larger than life

This song is so close to my heart. ❤️ the crack in her voice gets me every time, it's so sweet

I first found out about Ella Mae from a book named Breathe by Kristen Ashley and since then I've listened to her cover so many times it's ridiculous. I love it.

Breathe by Kristen Ashley brought me here.. anyone else? ..What a Beautiful song 💕 I feel for Faye (the main character of said book)

I love this song and the way her voice cracks. It’s amazing!! She’s singing with such passion and you can hear it!

Me and my husband are both active duty and he is more of my hero. I am proud of him more than anything. He makes me want to be a better person and no matter how many deployments we go through and long months of training we go through, I will be here waiting for him

My husband is active duty marines and I heard this for the first time today on the radio and balled like a baby 😢 I miss him so much!!!! 4 more months to go !

Your beautiful voice helps me during these depressing times and flash backs of life and 9-11-2001. Thank you.

I ve seen the movie "footloose" yesterday, i really love this song it nearly made me cry ❤️.

This one cover is the best part about the footloose remake.

Literally the most beautiful female voice ever... the chords and song are pretty next level too

you don't need someone to fix you and don't think for a second you need to love someone to be whole. only you can fix yourself and it's important to love yourself and find yourself before placing your heart in the hands of someone who may end up hurting you even more

Ms. Kate. Your work 10 years ago was awesome. Can't wait to see what you have for us now. Thank you for your voice.

One of my heroes. Christina Grimme was an amazing person! And she didn’t deserve what happened to her. She was one of the most amazing people that I’ve ever seen. R.I.P Christina! And also you did a really amazing cover of this song!

love this song, and love this version of this song! Ella Mae's voice is raspy and perfect and the slowness of this song is what makes this version so good, this is a song with lyrics full of pain, longing and raw hurt and emotion and this version truly does that justice.

the best cover I have ever heard❤ from an awesome remake movie!!

Holy shit, anyone found this after listening to it years ago?

Beautiful music & voice I normally skip songs with young Sheila's but the music roped me in

I am literally obsessed with the movie and this cover ❤️

The absolute best version of this song in existence hands down.!.!.!

I love this version! The original is great, but this is great also! Such a beautiful voice!

I can't believe that people disliked this song it is so beautiful because it is about LOVE and that is the most beautiful thing in life

I've been putting this song on repeat for a good two weeks

Doing a contemporary improv dance to this is amazing my dance team did it. Her voice makes the song come to life

I am still just so in love with what you did with song. Your voice is amazing and the way you just made this song your own really blows me away. Hearing you sing this song still makes my heart feel warm. You are truly one of a kind.

This version will always be my favorite. Ella’s voice is so amazing, and emotional. I’m so moved right now and every time I hear this cover. ❤️❤️

Heard this on Pandora and got obsessed right away. Found out later original was BT but im not going to lie. The way she slowed the tune down brought out the meaning and significance of it. Since that was the emotion im sure BT wanted to send out. The vocal flips are amazing and the runs were perfect.

Please, we need this on Spotify!

I cry Everytime I hear this song, it literally touches me in a way that hurts. Her voice is so beautiful, and I can relate to this video. I used to be so hard on myself, telling myself that I was never enough. I had the worst depression, I never thought I could get out. I never asked for help, I was always looking for it but it never came. Until now, I have found my hero and he has brought me from the ground and now I'm flying. I'm happier than I've ever been, I never thought I would be the person I am today. Never give up, you have a person searching for you and you'll receive them one day. I believe in you.

Songs back than were so much more in touch and nowadays we are not seems like, such a beautiful voice and instrumental 🎼 song ❤

Where have all the good men gone And where are all the gods? Where's the street-wise Hercules To fight the rising odds? Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed? Late at night I toss and I turn and I dream of what I need [Chorus:] I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light He's gotta be sure And it's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life Somewhere after midnight In my wildest fantasy Somewhere just beyond my reach There's someone reaching back for me Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet [Chorus] Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I would swear that there's someone somewhere Watching me Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the flood I can feel his approach Like the fire in my blood [Chorus]

i love her voice she is amazing

I Don’t Usually Like Country Music But This Catches Me In My Feelings. Like FOREAL FOREAL.

My grandmother is my hero. She had multiple strokes and lived, she was the strongest person I knew. I wanted to be strong like her. She was diagnosed with late stage lung cancer that the doctors found on accident. They decided to run another scan and found out she also had late stage brain cancer. I broke down in tears because she wouldn't live and only had a little while left. She passed away on September 3, 2016 at 5:30 a.m. I still miss her and cry, she was my hero and she will always be. She was the greatest person I knew. I miss you grandma....❤️

Of all the covers I have heard of this song, this one is my favorite. Oustanding job Ella, Oorah! Semper Fi!

Why isn't this at spotify??? Your voice is so beautiful

Her vocals at 1:50 are insanly mesmerizing! Such a beautiful voice!!!

Kristen Ashley's Breathe brought me here! Love this song and that book

Listening to this song, actually helps me a lot. Ive been through a lot lately, finding out everyone in my life only knows how to tell lies, i sing this song everyday and in a weird way it helps. Idk the whole concept of "i need a hero" doesnt necessarily mean shes looking for a man to be her hero, it means where are the people who we really need these days, they need to be there , be our hero. 😔 this song not only helps , but has also given me a goal. Im 14 years and Im going to audition for the voice, season 11 with this song. Hopefully it not just touches me but also the judges with the words and the way i hope to perform it.

Lyrics Where have all the good men gone And where are all the gods? Where's the street-wise Hercules To fight the rising odds? Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed? Late at night I toss and turn and dream of what I need [Chorus:] I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong, he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be larger than life, larger than life (Dada dada dada dada da) Somewhere after midnight In my wildest fantasies Somewhere just beyond my reach There's someone reaching back for me Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat Isn't there a superman to sweep me off my feet? [Chorus:] I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong, he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be larger than life Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I could swear that there's someone somewhere watching me Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the raging flood Oh, his approach is like a fire in my blood I'll meet a hero And then we'll dance 'til the morning light Dreaming, he'll lead me Held tight, Tonight's the night [Chorus:] I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong, he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light He's gotta be sure, he's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life, larger than life (Dada dada dada dada da) Oh (Dada dada dada dada da) Larger than life (Dada dada dada dada da) Larger than life (Dada dada dada dada da) Oh maybe, maybe, maybe tonight (Dada dada dada dada da) Oh, oh

This song that keeps me going on a daily basis, knowing my brother's overseas and has been gone for 3 years with a year left till he comes home. Thank you to everyone whos fought for our freedom and who are still fighting!!

Just watched footloose and searched for this song. I saw the original first. I was like 'THE HELL?' Then stumbled across this. So glad I did

This is my favorite version of any cover song ever. Like wow.

You definitely brought a new spin to this

this reminds me of my gf and she might not make it here at the hospital... she loved this song and if god takes her from us i'll always play this

i love this version its the best

My camp counselor used your song at one of our church camps and it was so beautiful and touching. Everyone in the gym was crying.

Beautiful voice and very original version.

Holding Out For a Hero is the best country love song from Ella Mae Bowen.

I love this version so much better than the original. Too bad this is not on Spotify.

I remember the first time I heard this song on Footloose. I looked it up afterwards to hear the whole song, and I've been listening to it ever since. When I get older and get married, I want my husband and I to dance to this song.

Love this version so beautiful and peaceful just wanna cry every time I listen to it.

I definitely love this song, when i first heard it in footloose I just immediately searched for it... and after that I really can't get enough of it. And yeah, It's most definitely better than the original version by Bonnie Tyler. Just keep up Xx

Love this version..

Best version of this song and would love to hear new music!

Everyone needs a hero at some point. ❤

I'm obsessed with this song

Thank you dear Kate for the song. It was amazing.

I think this is so much better than the original!! Love it!

I used to play this song over and over when I was going through a really rough patch... but I realized no one's heroic. You have to be your own hero.

I love the way you sung this. Its a powerful song to me. Every time I hear it I cry. You sing beautifully.!

April 2024 anyone❤

Came here because of 'Breathe (Colorado Mountain #4)' . I'm glad I listened to the song 💔

Everytime I come back to listen to this, I always get so emotional. Spotify is robbing her of these streams 🥲

I think about this version of this song at least four times a year, and always find myself coming back. WE NEED YOU TO PUT THIS ON STREAMING PLATFORMS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I HAVE NEVER BEGGED A YT WOMAN FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE!! But I am begging you, right now.

please, please put this song on Spotify, i really love this version of the song, and the wonderfull voice!!!!

I love this song it's better then the original one

My hero comes home in 6 days!!! #ArmyStrong

I love this version so much! It was the song for a competition dance last year

KZfaq suggested this song a couple years ago, and now that I've found the Man of my dreams I will be singing this to him until the end of time.
