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.

963. Burning Heart by Survivor (1985)

Survivor provided the iconic "Eye of the Tiger" for Rocky III. They returned with "Burning Heart" for Rocky IV. The movie and song centered on Cold War tensions between the Soviets and the United States. The Cold War theme dates the movie considerably, but the film remains a pop culture phenomenon for thirty and forty something men. "Burning Heart" peaked at #2 on the charts in early 1986.
