Holding Out for a Hero by Bonnie Tyler is featured in Dynamic Duets, the seventh episode of Season Four. It is sung by Kitty and Marley with back-up from the New Directions.

In the choir room, Kitty does the split as she sings. While holding a whip, she teases some of the New Directions members. Marley then walks in, spinning, as the Glee Club nods, impressed. As they reach the chorus of the song, Marley jumps on the top of the piano in a hero stance, Kitty still using her whip. They pull off impressive moves and flashy dances together.

As the song comes to an end, New Directions applauds their work, and they hug. Finn compliments them on the fact that they were able to resolve their friendship - unlike Ryder and Jake - but unaware that Kitty still loathes Marley.

New Directions:
Duh, duh, duh, duh
Duh, duh, duh, duh
Duh, duh, duh, duh
Ah, ah

Kitty:
Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where's the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?

Marley with New Directions harmonizing:
Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and I turn and

Kitty and Marley with New Directions harmonizing:
I dream of what I need

Kitty and Marley:
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero (New Directions: hero)
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light (New Directions: 'til the morning light)
He's gotta be sure and it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life, larger than life

New Directions:
Duh, duh, duh, duh
Duh, duh, duh, duh (Kitty and Marley: Oh whoa!)
Duh, duh, duh, duh (Marley: Oh!) (Kitty: Yeah!)

Kitty and Marley with New Directions:
Ah, ah!

Marley:
Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There's someone reaching back for me

Kitty with New Directions harmonizing:
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat

Kitty and Marley and New Directions harmonizing:
It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet

Marley (Kitty):
Ooh! (I need a)

Kitty and Marley:
Hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero (New Directions: hero)
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light (New Directions: 'til the morning light)
He's gotta be sure and it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night

Kitty:
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I could swear there is someone somewhere watching me

Marley:
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood

New Directions:
Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood
Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my...
Blood, blood!

Kitty and Marley:
Oh!
I need a hero (New Directions: hero)
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero (New Directions: hero)
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light (New Directions: 'til the morning)
He's gotta be sure, it’s gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
I need a hero (New Directions: hero)
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

Kitty and Marley with New Directions:
I need a hero
