Next time you hear Mariah Carey’s ‘Hero’ you are going to be thinking of Mimi sitting on the dumper.  It is said that her inspiration for the song came to her when she took a break from recording and nature called it’s love song to her.

She tells U.K. TV Show This Morning:

“Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and have an idea and have to get up and record it straight away before I forget it.  “Or with Hero, I was in the studio and someone was telling me about this film Hero with Dustin Hoffman in it. I took a walk to the loo and when I came back I had this idea for a song, and that was what then became Hero.”
