      @@jesusismysavior6395 I have often dreamed of a far off place
      Where a hero's welcome would be waiting for me
      Where the crowds would 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 would 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 loose hope, 'till I go the distance
      And my journey is complete, oh yeah
      But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part
      For a hero's strength is measured by his heart, oh
      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

    How I’m just now hearing this two years late is beyond me. I’m a huge Voiceplay and Voctave fan. EJ killed it as he always does, but it feels like we aren’t giving Eli enough credit. He is an absolute master of mixing and is able to cleanly hit notes far beyond what his vocal type should be able to do. He is a master vocalist and I am constantly in awe of his technical prowess.

      Don't apologize to Geoff! Hades isn't Satan, or the Devil, he's one of the strongest "Olympians" and doesn't have as much canonical canoodling as basically the rest of his large dysfunctional family. He's also a lover of music, Orpheus knows. I think hades would be thrilled to entertain such a profoundly entrancing singer.

    This is my favorite version by far. EJ killed it with his amazing voice and just as a matter of fact everyone did an amazing job. I have heard several versions of this by different acapella groups and I have to say this is by far the best I have heard. Without a doubt flawless from start to finish which isn't an easy feat to say the least.

    Every single one of you is great on your own. Together you're magic. I'm glad you're gradually gaining recognition for your work. It's well-deserved and long overdue. Here's to a bigger breakthrough with each new recording you make.

    Lyric :
    I have often dreamed
    Of a far off place
    Where a great warm welcome
    Will 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 will find my way
    I can go the distance
    I'll be there someday
    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 loose hope, 'till I go the distance
    And my journey is complete
    And to look beyond the glory is the hardest part
    For a hero's strength is measured by his heart, oh
    Like a shooting star, I can 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
    (find my hero welcome)
    find my hero's welcome waiting in
    I know every mile
    Will be worth my while
    I know every mile
    Will be worth my while
    When I go the distance,
    I'll be right where I belong
