Eye Of The Tiger

Finally an iconic album got remastered by Rock Candy. The sound is now superb and very well polished. I love the whole album but my favorite tracks are: "Children of the Night", "The one really that matters", "Ever since the world began" and "Feels like love". Of course I like the Eye of the Tiger song but I don't play it much since it got way too much commercial. Buy this remastered edition, you wont regret to have this in your collection.

This band has all great albums, including this one which brought them into the limelight some 20 years ago. The title track is one of the most energetic, rocking singles in popular music history (in my opinion); but as the lead track on this album it is only a foretaste of what is to come. This entire album is high quality melodic rock."Feels Like Love" is a catchy, passionate rocker with impossibly good harmonies. "I'm Not That Man Anymore" is a dramatic power ballad that rocks in spots. "Ever Since The World Began" should have been a huge hit--a spine-tingling, heartfelt ballad that touches the soul. (Interesting side note: Tommy Shaw of Styx fame remade this song on a solo album he put out five years later; that version is good enough to have been a hit, too!) "American Heartbeat" is a top 20 single heavy on the keyboards that is a prototype Survivor anthem of that time. I could rave about all of the other tracks on this album as well; they are all fantastic.Survivor was truly a band for the ages. To this day, they rank as one of the best ever melodic rock bands. While one song on this one album is what brought them into the limelight, I must emphasize (again) that all of their albums and most of their songs are well worth a listen. The "other 8 tracks" on this album are no exception.

"Eye of the Tiger",REALLY,brings a(rare)smile to my(oft-sullen)face!! This occurs,when I APPLY,its' inspiring lyrics to my life.."Went the distance"(In my"bout"with the"Grim Reaper",following a MASSIVE stroke,and ensuing brain surgeries!!)"now I'm BACK on my feet"(Defying the Neurosurgeons who said,I'd NEVER walk again,even IF,I(somehow)managed to avoid existing in a vegative state,for the rest of my life)"just a man,and his WILL,to survive"(My INDOMITABLE will(coupled with the AWESOME,"healing virtue" of JESUS)enabled me to(twice)walk 18 MILES,clear through Detroit(while legally BLIND)into surrounding communities,with NO problems whatsoever,less than two years after awakening in the O.R.to the bleak prognosis,that I'd never be able to take a single STEP again!!Yet,I walked(at a speed of 3 m.p.h)for(slightly over)an INCREDIBLE,TWENTY-THREE consecutive HOURS,when the SuperBowl came to Detroit,some years back!! "Rising up,to the challenge,of our rivals"(As a "child"of the"MOST-HIGH GOD"my "rivals" are doubt,fear and bad-reports from the worlds'"experts")I've already ROUTED,the(feeble)"challenges"of two of my rivals:"Fear"(by getting out of my bed,heading out the front door and taking my first(post-stroke)walk through my neighborhood..)and"Bad Report"(when I,after being told that my days of lifting weights,were FINISHED,bench pressed 90 pounds:ONE HUNDRED consecutive times(with partial paralysis on my left side!!)and I'm STEELING my mind,to rise up,and meet the challenge that"Doubt"presents!! This encouraging song,helps me out IMMENSELY!! I can't believe that I'd just about,totally forgotten this song(with my decimated memory)but when I heard it again,I was OVERWHELMED,with JOY and INSPIRATION!! This ENTIRE albun,is both,Timeless AND Priceless!!Admitedly,I had no idea that Survivor made so MANY,other quality songs!! However"Eye" transcends,merely being a"song" to me...It's been my lifes' THEME,for the last 5 years!! And buying this album,was the BEST purchase,that I've made in the last TEN years!!!

VERY GOOD QUALITY AND SOUND IS CLEAR AND CRISP. GOOD CD AND HAS MANY GOOD SONGS IN IT. THANK YOU

This album is a must have for everyone who remember the late 70's and early 80's.Most people knows only the song "Eye Of The Tiger" but it includes other really good songs too.For myself, I have followed Survivor all years after this album, but unfortunately they splitted the band after they'r reunion, "Reach" in 2006.I will also recommend the solo-albums from the lead singer, Jimi Jamison. He is the one who bring the sound of Survivor further ahed until this day, and Jim Peterik's Lifeforce, who is a bit more jazzy, but still great.

Awesome

Love this CD. Eye of the Tiger is a song that you'll always remember :)

Always been KICK ASS
