Lyrics :

I have often dreamed, of a far off place
Where a hero's welcome, would be waiting for me
Where the crowds will cheer, when they see my face
And a voice keeps saying, "This is where I'm meant to be"

I'll be there someday, I can go the distance
I will find my way, if I can be strong
I know every mile, will be worth my while
When I go the distance, I'll be right where I belong

Down an unknown road, to embrace my fate
Though that road may wander, it will lead me to you
And a thousand years, would be worth the wait
It might take a lifetime, but somehow I'll see it through

And I won't look back, I can go the distance
And I'll stay on track, no, I won't accept defeat
It's an uphill slope, but I won't lose hope
Till I go the distance, and my journey is complete

But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part
For a hero's strength is measured by his heart

Like a shooting star, I will go the distance
I will search the world, I will face its harms
I don't care how far, I can go the distance
Till I find my hero's welcome, waiting in your arms

I will search the world, I will face its harms
Till I find my hero's welcome, waiting in your arms

“What the hell is this man’s range?!”

Yes. His Range is Yes.

[Raiden]

I find it hard to believe that Yannis can sing this song and his Beast In Black songs. His range is absolutely insane.

[pierremaiden]

im surprised that Yannis was not approached by Avantasia as a main guest. he would 100% fit right in.

[Raztiana]

I'm not crying, I'm NOT crying....very much.

It becomes more and more beautiful every time you release something, dear Yannis.

[PrinceAlpheid]

This dude can literally sing anything and it'll sound good. Unreal.

[theucidone]

Better than both the originals. Perfection.

[ukiloas]

Power metal vocalists can just sing anything!

[jansmejkal]

No way, my favourite disney song performed by my favourite vocalists. What a day for me! Great job...

[vagevuur]

Can't wait for the Mulan: Reflection cover!

[pau]

I am a deep fan of beast in black, and hear him with his covers and the different voices that he has, is totally crazy, amazing.

[ritvamaki]

Happy birthday Yannis❤ Awesome interpretation as always🎼🎶💯❤️

[superowner]

I got goose bumps because of the perfection you displayed here!

[MIGBMWLOVER]

Η παιδική μου ανάμνηση βλέποντας την ταινία Ηρακλής! Α ρε Γιάννη τι μας έκανες!! Τι φωνή τι εμπειρία!

[samuelengle]

Happy Birthday. Last night i just bought tickets to your Richmond, VA for myself and my 9yo boy.

[alexiuscastrum]

A classic song for a classic Hellenic hero sung by one of Hellas' greatest lyrical sons! Awesome as always Yannis!

[nolanorion]

See, now I need you and Beast In Black to do a metal cover of "How Can We Be Lovers If We Can't Be Friends."

[CrystalPrelude]

Ok. Big fan of Beast in Black, and a fan of the singles he puts up on youtube and such. This is the one singer that never fails me.

[TheGreenBean]

I am shivering over here. I've never once questioned anything about Yannis' voice. The tonality, the technique, his range, his various diction per genre. Just *chefs kiss*

[lilyfelicis]

Happy Birthday Yannis ! What a gift for your Birthday !!!🎉❤

[calledtrout]

I'd love to see Yannis try some of the songs from phantom of the opera.. as both the phantom AND Christine XD
