There is a Spanish version as well. He sang the English version right after 9/11 to honor the firefighters and first responders at World Trade Center. Good version of that too. He is also the son of Julio Iglesias.
You can´t go wrong with anything that Enrique Iglesias does. Amazing songwriter, he´s father (Julio Iglesias) it´s living history in spanish music who also happens to record a couple of songs with Willie Nelson and Diana Ross.
The video for this song was filmed just after the filming of Once Upon a Time in Mexico ended and that is one of the reasons why the actor Mickey Rourke was in this music video.
@@AmolAmrit the song Bailamos was in the movie Wild Wild West with Will Smith in 2000 where is the song Hero music video was filmed in 2001 just after the filming of the movie Once Upon a Time in Mexico was done being filmed and just before 9/11 because this song and music video was released September 3rd, 2001.
When I heard this song for the first time I was with my boyfriend at the time. His daughter was 9 and a Britney Spears fan, as were many girls…. So the song was just on the radio and I was so blown away that I sat down and listened spellbound…. I knew immediately that I would listen to this song many more times... When I came back to my friend the next day, his daughter jenny was already standing at the door and then she said to me with a mysterious smile: "I have something for you" ...., she pushed a small flat package across the table , I removed the paper and then I held in my hand this CD with HERO by Enrique…., I was totally amazed and asked her: how did you come up with this song? and she said, "I watched you yesterday listening to him...." the relationship with her father ended a long time ago, but whenever Jenny and I meet somewhere (accidentally - today she is a beautiful, intelligent young woman) the memory of this moment comes back immediately, I'm still happy that we always had a good connection to each other
Jennifer Love Hewitt recently gave an interview where she explained that the day this was recorded Aaliyah had just passed and Enrique was good friends with her and his cries were real dedicated this video to her.
It's hard for me to listen to this. The man I was in a relationship with for ten years was battling alcohol addiction, we lived in Florida but to get clean he went to Michigan where his family was and went to rehab. He was afraid I would leave him but I promised him I would there waiting to just concentrate on getting clean. After taking him to the airport when I got home I found a note he had left for me saying he loved me and wanted to get married and he said he was going to make it, he wanted to be my hero and told me to listen to this song. He did great for a while but one day left rehab and one of his brothers went looking for him and finally found him in the woods near their family farm where they hunted all their lives. He had made a makeshift noose from sheets and hung himself in a tree, he had committed suicide. He had left a letter for me where it could be found and his brother sent it to me. He was telling me he was so sorry but the he had been diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver that had advanced quickly and he could not take the pain anymore. He said over and over he was sorry he couldn't be my hero and he was letting me down. I grieved over that man so long and still miss him and wish I could have let him know he was my hero and always would be. People that commit suicide think the only one they are hurting is themselves but the ones that love them they leave behind go through some much pain when they are gone. 😞😞
Who are you to Taron Depot West Covina buddy somebody at Polycoat Victor whatever you know you have to respect the people sick the people who you are or whatever we are in that’s what it is God bless your family amen
Oh my gosh sweetie! All my love to you. Just remember he loved you to the end.. he's still with you, watching over you and comforting you when you need him most. I'm so genuinely sorry for your loss. ❤ I have a similar story. My boyfriend of 10 years got addicted to pain meds when he got in a car wreck and almost lost his foot.. they were able to save it but he had a lot of pain.. 5 years of pain pills turned into shooting heroin because it was cheaper for him.. well dec. 29 2021 he was found alone in his parents house (they had both passed so he inherited it) he spent all his money on heroin so he had no running water, electricity, food, nothing. The cops found him overdosed on the floor. He was too far gone to try to save. That was the love of my life.. i feel like i failed him because I tried everything i could to get him help. He just wasn't ready to change for himself yet.
@@Amberhx1 I dont know how but I missed the part of your reply to me about your boyfriend and just came back to read it again and saw the whole thing this time. I'm so so sorry, I feel for you from the depths of my soul. I felt the same like I failed him but just find comfort in knowing you didn't, depression and addiction is a hard battle and doesn't discriminate, it can happen to anyone. Bless you and I hope your heart has found peace and life brings you happiness!! 💞🌺🌼🌸
Looks like an undercover op in which the man falls for the bad guys broad, both do a runner equally for a better life, but he knows it isn't to be and calls in sacrificing himself for her in the video. Got to catch the bad guy in the act. His father was my mums love, Julio. His songs were from the time. Raunchy but milder. Try 'To all the girls I loved before' with him and Willie Nelson. Enrique had other hits, I remember 'Bailamos', 'Escape' and 'I love to see you cry'.
What a composition, the perfect execution of all the elements, the strings, the bass, the congos, the snare, the kick, the piano fills, the riff. And on top of that the voice, majestic!
Well Gets What Daryl Somers The Host Of Hey Hey it’s Saturday From 1999 Angie Hilton My Girl Of My Dreams Is My Hero Because I Know Why For Reason Enrique Iglesias She Was The Singer In The Hey Hey it’s Saturday Band From 1999 Because I Just Absolutely Truly Do Love Her Very Very Very Much
Enrique’s father, Julio Iglesias, has an amazing voice and had many hit songs in the 80’s. Here are a few of his songs you might want to react to. “All Of You” m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BayF79ylUCQ.html “When You Tell Me That You Love Me” m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mQoVNrPQdtU.html “Hey” m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s4K77yTlnhE.html
I wanna thank this song for help me get my current girlfriend hahaha I said to who was my friend and said I think of you when I hear this song got her blushing now she my girlfriend
I seriously thought this came from a movie when this first came out. Jennifer Love Hewitt has never looked hotter, LOL. And good acting from both frankly. And gotta love Mickey Rourke as the bad guy. He's so good at that. Amazing song.
Can I make a request for a song? Have you heard of the Norwegian singer Sissel Kyrkjebø? She is the national treasure of Norway and has a unbelievable voice. Her voice can also be heard in the 1997 Titanic movie. Could you react to her performing "O Helga Natt"? (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XUgfL-2r6W8.html)
Ok there is sth I have been wanting to know about this video... U see he barely walk why in the heck didn't she go to him so he could save some strength... This is like a one way street here.. a relationship should be a two lane road not a one way... Her legs didn't look broke to me... 😄😄
They dated. Him and Jennifer at that time. His father is julio iglesias, but julio was never there for him. Enrique faked his name to get a Record deal, he and julio dont talk for 20 years. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yah-t9wVFcE.html react to that
