No Easy Way Out wins for me, The Rocky 4 soundtrack is easily one of the best ever.

edit- Man I want to have an 80s movie marathon now.

Rocky 4!!!
That training montage is the best thing ever. Cant see the vids cuz I'm at work but Beat Street is also one of my favorites.
My friend told me that Rocky's brother made eye of the tiger for him.

some clips
I always called this the training beat

Breaker's Revenge in Beat Street

Dude you posted exactly what I was going to, same song, same soundtrack, same sentiment.

That said, Rocky IV's soundtrack in general blows away Karate Kid's. KK1 had You're The Best & Cruel Summer (which wasn't even on the actual soundtrack they released), that's about it. Rocky IV's was magnificent. No Easy Way Out, Eye of the Tiger, Burning Heart, Living in America, the two awesome DiCola instrumentals, and a few other semi-forgotten gems as well.
This too.

As long as it is part of the montage it doesn't matter.

Your post made me think of this spoof of motivational songs from 80s movies:

In terms of spoof you can't really top Turn and Smile

For those far too interested in 80's movie songs, this was just released a few months ago, I got it and dig it a lot:

http://store.intrada.com/s.nl/it.A/id.6605/.f

It's the score (ie all of DiCola's stuff) from Rocky IV. Only took 25 years for it to come out! Sheesh. Of note, "War" is the movie version, which is better than the version on the regular Rocky IV soundtrack.



You know a CD is worth it when it includes an extended version of the "HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAULIE" robot song.

I don't know what it was about the 80s that spawned all these tunes, but whatever it was seems to have died.

"You're the Best" from Karate Kid. They use it in the episode of South Park where Randy gets drunk at Stan's little league games and starts beating up all of the other drunk dads, I laugh every time I think about it.

Wow...this thread brings back memories. I would have to say the best is Eye of the Tiger by Survior.

However..There is one song everyone here missed:

I was thinking and singing this song in my head a bit today wondering where I had heard this besides karate kid. It was south park and that episode is one of the funniest, IMO.

Seriously though, I really wish life was more like this. Instead of shooting or stabbing just take it out on the dance floor (or any other medium that requires skill in a non violent manner) and resolve issues that way. Like the movie Over The Top with Stallone, they arm wrestled in the bar scene instead of having a barfight. Then when it was all over, they gave each other respect .

Over The Top was way better than I remembered.

Is noone else going to mention they use it in King of Kong. I'm a south park hater so i have no idea what ya'll are talking about but King of Kong is awesome.

I'd settle for gang members to just stick to knife fights. Any innocent bystander that dies as a result of a knife fight probably deserved it.
