Rocky III - Eye of the Tiger (Movie Demo) - High Quality

A fan attempt at remastering the demo version of the song, it was performed by Dave Bickler from the band Survivor in 1982, it's way more raw and impactful in my opinion, people who saw the movie VHS or DVD releases heard this version, on the modern blu-ray releases of the movie the song has been changed to the studio version.

Update: Added lyrics through youtube's closed captions system

The 2 dislikes are from drago and clubber

I don't know why in the mainstream release, they didn't put these Tiger roars in the background. It would've made the released song more badass 🐯

[Iambecome]

This is FAR better than the version they released. The normal version lacks the soul of this one

[SuperHitman]

Lmao. I'm so glad this demo version is becoming more accessible now! It's the superior version of the song, no doubt about it

[evertjethoe]

I agree Thorx i always wanted this version on the cd instead of the studio one and it fits more for me when i train.

Risin’ Up Back On My Street
Took My Time, Took My Chances
Went The Distance Now I’m Back On My Feet
Just A Man And His Will To Survive

So Many Times It Happens Too Fast
You Change Your Passion To Glory
Don’t Lose Your Grip On The Dreams Of The Past
You Must Fight Just To Keep Them Alive

Chorus:
It’s The Eye Of The Tiger It’s The Thrill Of The Fight
Risin Up To The Challenge Of Our Rivals
And The Last Known Survivor Stalks His Prey In The Night
And He’s Watching Us All In The Eye Of The Tiger

Face To Face Out In The Heat.
Hanging Tough Staying Hungry.
They Stack The Odds Till We Take To The Street
For The Kill With The Skill To Survive

It’s The Eye Of The Tiger It’s The Thrill Of The Fight
Risin Up To The Challenge Of Our Rivals
And The Last Known Survivor Stalks His Prey In The Night
And He’s Watching Us All With The Eye Of The Tiger

Risin Up Straight To The Top
Had The Guts Got The Glory
Went The Distance Now I’m Not Gonna Stop
Just A Man And His Will To Survive

It’s The Eye Of The Tiger
It’s The Thrill Of The Fight
Risin Up To The Challenge Of Our Rivals
And The Last Known Survivor Stalks His Prey
In The Night And He’s Watching Us All In The Eye Of The Tiger

The Eye Of The Tiger
The Eye Of The Tiger
The Eye Of The Tiger
The Eye Of The Tiger

Rocky 3 is the best of the Rocky series for eye of the tiger alone and Mr T. Rocky 4 is great too no doubt but I loved Rocky 3 more

[themaskedviolinist]

Thank you so much. I was looking for this. Great! 👍👍👍👏👏👏💪💪💪💪💪

[willschweitzer]

This version sounds more menacing than the one most people know.

[patrickchaney]

I’ll tell you what. I know I’m pretty much a nobody and a loser but because of this character I know I’m worth something

[josemarianote.caamano]

Rocky numca olvidare sus películas son grandes las vi todas

[VenusHeadTrap]

It's playing slightly too fast, kind of like the movie is on helium. But I like it

[myrealghostbusters]

My favorite go to song to get my adrenaline flowing.

[mattkylie]

This song should’ve come on in Rocky Balboa against Dixon during fight

[flyingwild]

Though the stories of rocky 3 and 4 are similar (a death that hurts rocky, him then training in new ways to take on a comical bigbad), the story of 3 is just so much more entertaining and impactful. I think Rocky 4 was too must of a 'movie' for a rocky film, and was used as propaganda in the Soviet conflict, evidenced by the 'everyone can change' speech after the fight.

[Vaporvice]

This is a cool video with lots of BTS pics that most of us have never seen before. Thanks.
