He was such an hero, to take it all away. We miss him so, That you should know, And we honor him this day. He was an hero, to take that shot, to leave us all behind.

It was 2006: typos made by grieving people had a chance to become memes.

isn't "an hero" technically correct? It sounds weird, but it is not grammatically wrong.

What do you mean "not grammatically wrong" ?

"An" is used before words that start with a vowel sound.

An orange. A cop. An easter egg. A yeast overgrowth. An hour. A hero. etc.

Ok thank God, I thought I was going crazy for a second. This is the rule I follow and I had a moment where I thought maybe I'd been wrong my entire life. Should be more confident.
