This is the movie version of the Rocky IV War theme by Vince Dicola. Most people will prefer this version to the original as it is upbeat all the way through. Enjoy!!!
The thing is, Rocky Balboa had never been stronger, tougher, or more determined than in the fourth movie. And... like Duke reminded him in the final round, he wanted it so much more. The training montage showed that Rocky didn't travel to Russia to win a match. He went there to rip Drago's heart out and show it to him. "Drago!! DRAGOO!!!"
Now he's worried You cut him, YOU HURT HIM You see HES NOT A MACHINE, HE'S A MAN You want it more than he does, NO PAIN NO PAIN NO PAIN OKAY TAKE IT TO HIM! TAKE IT TO HIM!
I swear down,Rocky 4 has probably one of the best soundtracks in movie history. Now while I haven't seen the movie in a while and don't recall it having Eye of the Tiger it did have Hearts on Fire which was honestly a way better choice,in my opinion,to have over the training montage
thats the best version i´ve ever heard. love that crowd noise and the punches. back then i recorded some songs directly from the movie on tape so that i can hear them breath and fight, that was pure adrenaline when i was in the gym and lifted weights that were sheer impossible for my own weight :) many thanks dude
This a great David and Goliath story but trying to repeat that lightning in a bottle with Rocky 1 is impossible. Under 950,000 dollars budget no one knew who he was. It literally was all or nothing for Sly with that film.
They're different categories so it's hard to compare. The original was more a drama with boxing/action while the fourth was a high octane loud 80s style revenge - action film in a boxing ring.
well, and this was considered the worst OST in the year the movie came out. Dicola even got the golden raspberry for it. i guess the audience was not ready for it at this time... ;)
Historias de coraje y honor abundan. Que tendra esa naturaleza misteriosa del coraje, que estas historias nos motivan y nos inspiran? Solo se que todos queremos ser recordados por nuestro valor y gallardia en vida
Yeah, there is a big difference. Before I had to copy the battle with drago from my VHS to cassette tape (later to mp3 when those were available). Glad this was uploaded here.
This music is just epic win, if i was having a fight id want this music playing in the background...they should play it for all boxing matches and plus it would never grow old
Last year at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France, they were playing this as the entire field of cars was coming out of the Ford Chicane onto the front straight to take the green flag for the start of the race, it was EPIC!!!!!!
Adrian: It's suicide. You've seen him, you know how strong he is. You can't win. Rocky: Oh, Adrian. Adrian always tells the truth. No, maybe I can't win. Maybe the only thing I can do is just take everything he's got. But to beat me, he's going to have to kill me. And to kill me, he's gonna have to have the heart to stand in front of me. And to do that, he's got to be willing to die himself. I don't know if he's ready to do that. I don't know." :) :)
i got another version of this 'war' tune which is truely amazing, but slightly differs from the movie. I really want this version too. I just wanna run around and take on the world listening to this, fucking awesome
yes i agree this songs are way better than the ones they have now. more action and also leaving people thinking who has the fight. the favorite or the underdog?
If Apollo‘s wife had seen Rocky in the match against Drago, who made her a widow with no remorse after Drago killed Apollo in the 2nd round of an exhibition match, she must‘ve been worried seeing a true case of David Vs Goliath and hoped that Rocky would make Drago pay by beating him in his own country.
@natureboy84 I totally agree with you. The part after the build up is different in the movie from the soundtrack. Its why I was looking for this EVERWHERE!! This version is kills the soundtrack version
