Soundtrack Saturday - Rocky IV
There are five movies from the 80's that I specifically remember going to the theatre and remember being blown away. In no particular order they are The Goonies, The Karate Kid, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Return of the Jedi, and Rocky IV. I remember heading to the theatre around Christmas time with my dad and brother.(back in '85, wow!) Like Bob from Office Space celebrates Michael Bolton’s entire catalogue I celebrate the entire Rocky catalogue. If I had to pick favorites I'd say 1, 3 and 4. I'm 32 now so I'd say if you're a male between the ages of 28 and 38 this movie still holds a special place in your heart and makes you feel like working out after watching it.
This particular track (as most of you know) is used during one of the famous 80's flashback sequences that fills you in on the previous three Rocky movies.(see above) I don't know about you but I plan on watching this classic sometime over the holiday season. Happy Thanksgiving - Gomez
