Who is your hero?

In her thirty-year singing career volumes have been written about Mariah Carey’s incomparable expertise, five-octave vocal range, power, and signature use of whistle register. Mariah Carey is one of the best-selling music artists of all time.

“Hero” is a masterful example of how Mariah sensitively negotiates what many regard as her signature ballad. I want you to take note of her command, perfect pitch and conservative use of vibrato. Using her impressive lower alto register “Hero” creates an emotional exchange between vocalist and listener, verse by verse, highlighting her expert understanding of storytelling. Mariah demonstrates consummate intuition knowing that though she could do something over the top she restrains herself knowing exactly what the music calls for. This is the definition of “tasty” in my book! Two thumbs up!

Written by Mariah and Walter Afanasieff, “Hero” was originally intended for Gloria Estefan for the film of the same name. Learning that the song was intended for a different artist Tommy Mottola encouraged Mariah to keep the song for herself. She did so after personalizing the lyrics, key and instrumentation. Mariah has stated that though “Hero” is not her favorite song she recognizes the impact it has had on her many listeners who’ve told her that the ballad helped them through some particularly difficult trials.

“It’s awesome. The private sections of the forum are worth the price of admission alone. I struggled with 2 different tertiary (university Level) level teachers (6 months each about 8 years ago) telling me my voice just wouldn’t be able to do what i wanted to be able to do and even if it could, the material i wanted to be able to sing would be too ‘Dangerous.’ Absolute rubbish. If you do the work thats laid out in this course, you are golden, I started in March Last year struggling to hit the E4 note in ‘Under the Bridge’ chorus now I can sing this stuff:
