Seconds Into This Girl’s Performance, She Gets A Standing Ovation. I’m In TEARS!

Don't you love it when you listen to a song you haven't heard in ages and it takes you right back to a certain time and place in your life?

I'm constantly finding myself asking questions like "How come I can't remember what I ate for dinner on Tuesday, and yet I know every single word to songs I can't even name from the '80s and '90s?!"

Well, I have to admit that, when I saw the following video, the 10-year-old girl in me came out of hiding and couldn't help but sing along. I haven't heard "Hero" in ages, but I can vividly remember when Mariah Carey first came out with it back in 1993…and I'm sure you do, too. It was impossible to escape.

"Hero" helped empower a generation, and many people would say it also helped skyrocket Mariah Carey to international superstar status. Although there's nothing like the original, the following performance by 10-year-old Alexa on Australia's The Voice: Kids comes pretty close.

There's no denying that this is the song Alexa was born to sing. And I think it's safe to say that the judges agree, as Alexa went on to win the first season of the show after this amazing moment!
