A Special Kind of Hero is a song by Stephanie Lawrence that was chosen as the theme song for 1986 FIFA World Cup held in Mexico.
The World Cup Greatest Hits album[1] on which this track is allegedly re-released in fact does not contain this song. Somehow there was a mix-up resulting in the Official FIFA Anthem that was first used in the 1994 World Cup replacing it, but still being labeled as Special Kind of Hero. The only source from which the real song can be heard today is Hero - the Official FIFA Film of the 1986 World Cup.
It was written by Nik Kershaw.
