I Don't Even Remember Which Rocky Movie This Is From!



But it's Survivor, right? So it's pretty safe to say, there's some red-leather-padded cinematic fisticuffs involved.

Finally viewing this with my plugins plugged in, so I can at least see what it is, and sis (smile in silence)---such complete intoxication!

It's from a Rocky movie? I never saw any, but I'd guess the one with Dolph Lundgren as the Russkie.

Actually, after further research it isn't. Which to me is a shocker! I thought all of Survivor's hits were from Rocky movies. I got the impression that they didn't put out albums - just soundtracks!

It seems I was wrong on that score. But they sure did go to town on those Rocky movie soundtracks.

Yeah, I didn't think it was, but it's not like I'm a Survivor expert. I just remember the video and the radio airplay, and I didn't remember it being tied to any movie.

I definitely do remember this video. It must have been played a LOT - every frame was like a crystal-clear deja vu (except, with no doubt I'd seen it before).

But I don't think I associated with Survivor. If I'd seen the video not knowing who it was, I probably couldn't have told you. I'd name off a bunch of bands, maybe Survivor would be in amongst them, but I'd have no idea which.

I will say with no small amount of shame that I initially was thinking of it as being sung by Steve Perry.

That's what I said! I guessed Journey, or Steve Perry solo.
