I always thought there was something familiar about the 2002 Spider-Man theme “Hero”. Have a listen to Seal’s 1995 hit “Kiss From a Rose” next to Chad Kroger’s (of Nickelback) “Hero”.
Seal - "Kiss From a Rose" (1995)
Chad Kroeger (Nickelback) - "Hero" (2002)
Update 7/19/2012:
Ex-Saliva front man, Josey Scott also co-wrote and performed “Hero” with Chad Kroeger. Check out Saliva’s “Survival of the Sickest” (2004) with Marilyn Manson‘s “The Fight Song” (2000)

It is super sublte. It’s barely a verse but for some of us we automatically hear Seal’s kiss from a rose..that is the only place where there are any similarities in the entire still song..
I know no one under 55 years old will know this and it’s only the intro to Kiss From a Rose, but go over to You Tube and search Our Love by Natalie Cole. Listen to the intro and after the first verse of both songs. The Natalie Cole song is from 1978 thus the comment no one under 55. Back in 1995 when I first hesrd tge intro to Kiss From A Rose, I thought it was a remake of Our Love. The intro’s are exactly the same.
Always thought this. Very similar melody in the hook, seals notes are like quarter notes and nickel backs are like whole notes
