Of all the covers I've heard, this is the only one that comes close to capturing the frantic energy of the original. Great job.

There are a bunch of metal covers of this song, but this one has by far the best vocals and guitar.

If I were a supervillain that had the heroes girl and the fate of the world was in the balance because of my perfectly crafted evil scheme, I would hope the hero would come after me with this song in mind or playing behind him. If I am going to be threatened I want to be threatened by someone who can actually bring it.

This is really good! I love hearing songs done in a different type of music. This is one of those that sounds good done differently. Thanks Emerald Sun. I will check out other songs from this band definitely! :-)

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 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, 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 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 I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night 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 flood I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood 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 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 I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night

really cool. I always wondered why power metal band has not covered this one. This was a cool rock song back in the day. Loved Bonnie Tyler and Lover power metal epicness!

@Arthaszl The GSL is the Global Starcraft II League. Starcraft II is a prominent e-sports video game, meaning that people watch professional players compete against each other. The players compete under screen names, as you could predict. One of the player's name is HerO, and they played this song for him. Thus, lots of "GSL BROUGHT ME HERE!" comments. I just like power metal :P
