Mark Hildreth

Mark Hildreth is a Canadian actor and musician. He is best known for his voiceover work, particularly as the voice of Heero Yuy in Mobile Suit Gundam Wing.

Mark Hildreth and his work provide examples of:

 * Break Up Song: "Sitting Beside."
 * Lyric Swap: "Love Will Make It Certain" switches from the title line to "love will make me certain" towards the end of at least one version.
 * Mis Blamed: Certain fans often badmouth Mark Hildreth for portraying Heero as robotic rather than subdued. At conventions, Hildreth has said he was told to use a rather flat voice tone by the cast director because Heero was supposed to be very, very emotionally repressed. Reportedly, the constant pestering got to him so much that he's sworn to never work on any Gundam dub again.
 * Non-Appearing Title: The title of "Sitting Beside" describes the metaphor used in the song (sitting next to a riverbank and watching your true love drift away), but the phrase itself never appears in the lyrics.
 * Romance on the Set: Met his girlfriend, Kristin Kreuk, when they were filming the Earthsea miniseries.
 * Single-Stanza Song: "Every Heart Has a Winter" is one stanza, followed by a musical interlude, followed by the same stanza repeated again.
 * Surreal Music Video: The video for "Siddhartha."
