Holding Out For A Hero, was a big hit for Bonnie Tyler, back in 1984. The song was written for the movie Footloose, by Jim Steinman and Dean Pitchford. I think it's a great song, and I honestly thought someone should remake this song. Do you like this song?

In what I think is not only a big improvement on the original, and a perfect vehicle for his enormous talent, Adam Lambert remade the song this year. I first heard this song today, and I loved it even more than the original. Do you like this version?

MacArthur Park, written by Jimmy Webb, was first recorded by Richard Harris, in 1968. I loved the song, although some may have felt at well over 7 minutes, the song was too long by that day's standards. Did you like this song?

Donna Summer remade the song is 1978, and put her own disco spin on it. I won't tell you which version I prefer, but what do you think of this remake?
