Rocky showed us that victory ultimately comes in many different forms folks, Rocky was a victory on screen and off.
I mean every single time the way that Rocky cries out for Adrian with this music in the background brings me to man tears…every time…I admit this shamelessly. Rocky took Apollo to his absolute limit and gave it everything he had, and the music that followed that last battle says that he has plenty to be proud about. The Final Bell is the track that brings out the most emotion for me behind ‘Mickey’ I would say. Within these two tracks, one is the track that out of all the music in all the films gets me the most pumped up. GOING THE DISTANCE & THE FINAL BELL – BILL CONTI Kudos go to DeEtta Little and Nelson Pigford for their amazing vocals.Ģ. I’m proud of the fact that the track is on my IPod for the one time a month I feel like going on a run, the best compliment I can give is Bill Conti made Rocky Balboa immortal with this track. This is the first track that gave us a glimpse into the hellacious preparations Rocky goes through to prepare for his battles, and who can forget the culmination of the whole thing with the run up those steps? ‘Gonna Fly Now’ made it to number one on Billboard Magazine’s Hot 100 list for a week, and has been given the honor of the AFI’s list 100 Years, 100 Songs at #58. Right next to perhaps Eye of the Tiger, this Bill Conti theme is the most recognizable and iconic track of the bunch. All the talent involved throughout the years has made each Rocky film a pleasure to behold every single viewing. A lot of the music has even transcended the films in the form of being covered and being featured on other programming. From the brilliant composed work of Bill Conti and Vince DiCola, to the songs from bands like Survivor, John Cafferty, James Brown, Robert Tepper, Kenny Loggins, Gladys Night, Go West, and Three Six Mafia. Throughout the years, the soundtracks for the Rocky franchise has done just that. There’s that handful of film franchises that reach that extra level of greatness thanks to the iconic music that is brought to the table. Whether it be a musical band or a composer, soundtracks help our favorite movies stay etched in our mind forever. They can make us cry, they can pump us up, they can make us remember the 80’s.
ROCKY BALBOA MUSIC SOUNDTRACK MOVIE
Soundtracks enhance the movie going experience. Then comes the wonderful world of post-production. It all starts with a story (according to what every How-To book on screenwriting tells us), there is the director and his crew, there are the actors, who bust their asses to bring a vision to life. There are many things that make a movie what it is.
