861. Eye of the Tiger by Survivor (1982)

Originally, Sylvester Stallone wanted Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" for Rocky III. However, he could not get permission to use the hit, so he went with "Eye of the Tiger." It proved fortuitous as "Eye of the Tiger" became a soundtrack song for the summer of 1982. It hit #1 on the charts and remained there for 6 weeks. The song has since become iconic.
