Hero (Mariah Carey) cover by Kuhoo Gupta

Hero (Mariah Carey) cover b... Lyrics & Chords

This is my attempt to cover the very popular song by Mariah Carey – Hero !

Thanks to Neha for sharing the karaoke of this beautiful song :)

Beautiful lyrics as well ….

Theres a hero
If you look inside your heart
You dont have to be afraid
Of what you are
Theres an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And youll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Its a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And youll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Oh oooh
Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But dont let anyone
Tear them away, hey yeah
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
Youll find the way

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And youll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

That a hero lies in you
That a hero lies in You

I like your voice in this song.Everything is perfect,sung wirh great sensibility and power.However you have to give attention at high pitches-they are a little too open for western singing(here we learn to put the voice up,in nose,keeping the throat open )You are a powerfull,great singer already!Keep us delighted!

Kuhoo,
Not many even dare to cover Mariah. So first off congrats on that. With regards to your rendition, I want to break it up into singing and diction:

Singing – I thought you sang very well, expressions were very good. Definitely second Ibolya about the high pitch parts. Needs work as it sounded nasaly at certain points. Overally it was very good.

Diction – I thought this needed a lot of work. Lyrics were not clear and at points way too muffled. I think thats what you need to focus on in future english covers.

With that said, a very good jo overall.

Harshan (away) Nambiar Pro user said

Kuhoo ….I should congratulate you for attempting something different. I really enjoyed your rendition ….but not many can come out with their normal genre and perform like the way you did. Improvement areas are covered upstairs ….I am sure the more you do eng covers …you will come in terms with its style ….not a big deal for an artiste of your calibre.

5/5 from me …keep it up !

Bodhisattva Dasgupta Pro user said

Kuhoo, quite a nice attempt…. a different flavour after your other renditions…. Yours is the only rendition of this song that I am listenin to after Neha’s…… and here, you did put in your best here i felt…. but as for a Western number, you will need to work a bit more on a few things… (1) the smooth flow of the notes – at times, the transitions from one note to the other are very marked, (2) the high pitches (as already mentioned by Ibolya & George) – they didnt quite seem to blend properly, (3) removing the indian-ness, or the eastern influence…. for instance, the parts beyond 2:45 till a long time, sound very very indian…. and finally (4) diction – which, even though at 4, is equally important as any other factor when singing a song….
you are a really good singer and hence i thought i should mention these to you…. try and re-do this sometime when possible and re-upload… :-)

Regards,
Bodhi

Neha ........ said

Kuhoo, what amazing voice control! I have hardly come across singers of your caliber!
Your rendition was simply fantab, the modulations and the way you started was superb, however I felt the mods were a bit overdone as the song progressed… Also, considering the fact that this song reeeealy goes high, one needs to make sure that even the high notes sound sweet to the ears (as pointed out by a few above)… also, the lower notes need to be rendered with a soft airy voice (eg. the few concluding lines) to give the whole song a sugary feel…

Technically I would give your singing a 10/10… Spl mention to the ‘in time’ part (3:08 to 3:10) it was awesome…! And I am sure it is a cakewalk for you to pick up the pointers mentioned above and redo this song to perfection… :)

Pradip somasundaran said

Kuhoo, for me it is enough that you had the heart and the will to say that I will try and give it a shot! This spirit is what many of the singers do not have. Many stay within their cocoon singing old songs or only new songs or even say for a style that, I hate rock, I hate pop and I like only classical and this is not my cup of tea and so on. In music, there is only one thing; good or bad! Rest is all to cover up ignorance, lack of interest, laziness and due to the mental block that others and yourself have put upon you.
I would advise every singer to listen to every genre and learn to appreciate and sing every form of music. Then only do we develop into a true musician. Wonderful effort Kuhoo! All the flaws/improvements needed have been already covered by experienced muziboons here. The more you sing and recognize your flaws the more you will improve upon them, in the future. But the will and fire to explore the unexplored should remain as long as we all sing!

This is a very very difficult song, even for a woman. But you were up to the task. Keep it up!!

But I have one criticism. You have to smoothen out your voice in some places. I think it can be done with even more hard work!

But highly enjoyable cover!

Good, u have been correctly christened KUHOO. Suits u. But in this song, the diction was that mattered a lot. Hope u do understand. Still good. Keep it up. I feel ur genre is Hindi or bollywood to b very precise. English songs i feel may not be ur cup of tea but a good attempt. I suppose if u went for western vocal training then the glicthes cud be overcome.
