When I listen to this music I remember my father in the 90's when he was out of work because the factory closed. He started looking for work in anything because there was no work in his trade. I was in elementary school and my sister was in high school. I remember one Christmas when my dad couldn't be with us because he had to work and we barely had enough to make ends meet. I feel like my dad was Rocky. Now that he passed away two weeks ago, and I found out his cat was sick with cancer, I feel like life hit me hard, but you have to pick yourself up and keep going. I love you dad.

Fighting against cancer… this is pure motivation. It captures the very essence of the human will against the challenges of life. Thanks.

"It's not about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you get hit, and keep moving forward." Some people think the Rocky movies are cheesy, and maybe they are, but I think they set a great example for how to live your life. "If you know what you're worth, then go get what you're worth." That speech in Rocky 6 really shakes me up every time. I just wrote up what I wanna change for 2024, the things I'm letting go of (I quit weed five weeks ago, I'm cleaning up my diet one snack at a time so it's sustainable, I'm gonna stop buying booze and slowly use up what I have, then quit for good) and the things I wanna learn and do. By this time next year I'll be substance free, drinking only water, studying my craft every day, and teaching tai chi like I always dreamed. When I listen to this music, especially on a loop, it feels all but goddamn inevitable. Win or lose, I'm going the distance baby

Welterweight champion Leon 'Rocky' Edwards

It is with great sadness, I say we lost Apollo (Mr Carl Weathers) earlier today. I was listening to this loop this morning during a workout. In the afternoon I learned he passed "peacefully". Apollo was the character who brought out the best in Rocky. Forever in our motivational thoughts. Thank you Carl.

A true Champion is someone who gets up even when they can’t.

Who’s here because of David Goggins 17hrs loop listening to this song while smashing the world record in pull-ups? 💪🏽💪🏽

Going the distance is all Rocky wanted to do. Little did he know he would shoot to the stratosphere.... Epic..

I am a survivor of a narcissistic abusive relationship, and this music makes me feel so strong, powerful, and I know my self worth!

Rocky is not just a movie or a character. He is an emotion who motivates millions around the globe. Thank you Stallone ❤️

"You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!" ~ Rocky Balboa, 2006

My 6 years old son have diabetes. It is very hard for him. So I told him the story of Rocky. Now he fights every day like Rocky. I hope he never give up...

Its not about how hard you can hit , it's about how hard you can get hit , and keep moving forward, THATS HOW WINNING IS DONE .

You only fail,when stop trying..I have been watching and listening to these songs since 1976 and to this day it motivates me everyday of my life.

Composer's are a gift to this sad and lost world.

Rocky is not just about boxing. It is about LIFE. Anything that you feel you can't quite conquer. If you believe in yourself and just keep getting back up. That is why this film resonates so much.

I went to see Rocky at the theatre in 76 when I was 12 and it changed my life. I decided I wanted to be a modern day gladiator and started boxing for the next 4 years, then tae kwon do for 3 years and then kickboxing for 3 years. I even bought the Rocky soundtrack on LP in 76. This movie is in my top 3 favourite movie of all time cause it had such a huge impact on my life for the next 10 years after it came out in 76. This song still gives me goosebumps. ❤️

This song reminds me of my grandmother who passed away in 2019. She was Korean. She was born during the Japanese colonization era, got married when she was only 14. It was an arranged marriage. Later in life, my grandfather got a mistress because my grandma couldn't get pregnant and that broke her heart. She eventually left him after giving birth to his two children and became a working, single mom raising two kids by herself in 1950s South Korea. The widows, divorced women and single moms were looked downed upon with contempt. But she kept going for her kids. She eventually got promoted in her workplace and retired winning an award. She fought her battle. It was a good fight. It was not an easy fight. But it was worth it. Her kids turned out well. They are now successful and wealthy. On the other hand the kids of the mistress all went bankrupt. Rest in peace Grandma Mrs. Kim Pil Jeon. We love you, miss you and honor you. Thank you for fighting the good fight. This battle hymn really reminds me of you. 06232022

Rocky knew he couldn't beat Apollo, he just wanted to go the distance with the greatest. To prove to himself that he wasn't just a bum.

The single biggest factor for the appeal of the Rocky movies: Bill Conti's soul stirring music!

Greatest instrumental in a motion picture EVER.

One of the greatest music pieces of XX century. Period.

This piece embodies the hero's journey perfectly.

One of The most uplifting pieces of music ever created

The greatest boxing franchise in history... many try but fail. Showed my boys the whole originals 1,2,3 and 4. Still stands up today. They went straight to the home gym after that marathon....just like all boys throughout time did hahah...

Congratulations to the people using this tune for improvement on every area possible. Hold on and keep working, all things that are worth while are not granted easily. NO PAIN! NO PAIN! NO PAIN!

The quality of a movie is determined by its music. The Rocky series has so many banger songs that perfectly captured the vibe. That's how legends and iconic moments are born.

All the Rockys out there, Give a thumbs up!

This was the feature film on HBO for February, 1978, the first month I had HBO, and saw it all twenty-three times it aired LOL.

NEVER QUIT!

Thank you Bill Conti! Your music nourishes my soul.

Wow. Today I found it. I ll use to began my day at work. Thanks. Greetings from Perú.

Bill Conti blows this music into the stratosphere. As a kid I had crush on Stallone. This is life and real humans. NOT robots. GO Rocky

beautiful

You’re gonna eat lightning, and crap Thunder!!! -Micky

Conti said this piece was inspired by Catholic Mass. Rocky is an Emotion of being a man and going through endless amounts of shit, eating shit, overcoming shit, being hated, being true to your values, the passion and purpose coursing through your veins, fighting and bleed in the arena of life for everything you dream of and desire to provide for your family and bloodline and winning. Amen

This story resonates so deeply to me as an Italian-American. Brings me great joy to know everyone else can feel it as well.

Great video I rocked and rolled over my problems an setbacks in life listen to this and my church upbringing as kid an my life now . I try to go to my church three times a week unless traveling.an my military service I went to chapel services on both my ships.

Thank you Bill Conti! I couldn't imagine any other music to fit this film.Thank you Stallone!

This is for everything before the glory of "Gonna fly now"... Suddenly i remembered my father: he was diagnosed liver cancer and he endured endless nights of pain, tryin' keep his composture and good spirit even knowing he was living on borrowed time; he lived on well beyond terms and when surrendered to using painkillers he always said he was there and still was him, until for the count of ten down he went. Would like be half the man he was.

Ok, so It’s after Midnight in New York. Couldn’t sleep so I’m at the gym on the treadmill. Thank you, thank you, thank you Sylvester Stallone for the one in a million story and Bill Conti for composing the best inspirational power music ever written in my opinion. How can you not do another mile when you hear this!!! Awesome Patrick. Great upload!!!

Rocky Balboa é a maior sequência da história do cinema. É a luta de um homem comum, mas que tem um ideal e nunca desiste. A vida insiste em lhe derrubar mas ele segue em frente. Rocky é inspiração, é bondade, é superação. Viva pra sempre Rocky Balboa, and keep fighting.

No word in the world can fully convey the feeling I have every time this soundtrack kicks in 💪💪

Does anyone else bere go through every round in your head and think of the amazing performances by Sly & Carl. I get choked up. What a fuxking masterpiece.

One of the most triumphant songs, the Bell at the beginning and end the crescendo of the whole entire song a Masterpiece!

This is, probably, one of the most beautiful, epic and nostalgic compositions has ever been made. Not feeling something running inside your heart and mind once the music starts going in crescendo will prove you are dead in life. With music sometimes you can touch heaven for sure. I love it.... the same way my dad did.

Goggins got me here. I have been feeling weird lately and doctors aren't discovering shiit. This right here gets me going!

Was Bill Conti struck by divine inspiration before writing this piece ? It's sublime

In life we meet our own demons, thus we fall on our knees, as we are only human beings. It is not bad to be on knees, down at that pit of soul, when there is no sun. It is sin to not get up, to breach limits of who we are. One, two, left, right, up, and down. This melody always brings joy to who I am.

I've lost my own job because of f**king covid-19 pandemic, and now I make an effort to look for a new job. My goal is almost there. Rocky, my hero, always encourages me. I'll NEVER give in! Thank you, Rock!!!

Being that I took quite a few hits in my life, this score inspires me to move forward. And Stallone’s iconic speech where he says “it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward” has helped me to do just that. I lost my wife of 25 years to illness a year and a half ago, and I’ve done a lot of above average endeavors, writing, and other forms of self therapy to restore and cultivate my self esteem and help me to go forward. A few months ago I actually met Sylvester Stallone at my art museum in Philadelphia where I work. But it wasn’t just exciting meeting him. Yes they were just lines in a movie. But I actually told him that his words in that speech he gave in Rocky Balboa have definitely been inspiring and motivationally healing, not only to me, but to all people trying to pick themselves back up in life. Taking hard hits and being forced to our knees is what life WILL do to all of us and it WILL keep us there if we allow it to do that. But then picking ourselves back up in our lives and persevering forward IS how we win in life. Stallone was rather flattered and took that as a valued compliment. And I hope all people reading this, as well as hearing this score, will find that inspiration within them as well.

Please give it up for Bill Conti ladies and gentlemen.

This was a BRILLIANT composition! If you don't get emotionally stirred by this you might be dead

Rocky and Enter the Dragon. The two movies that changed boys to men in the 1980's!

I feel what a wonderful motivation tool this music is to never give up. You brought tears to my eyes and thank you god bless!

Rocky is about masculinity and manhood, pure and simple. The message is just as relevant today as then, maybe more so now the world appears to think 'men' are the problem.

Rockyyyyyyy!!!!! I am here!!

Taking Souls - Goggins

Bill Conti man, just respect, a human intellectual spiritual speaking in our souls!..

One more round, just one more round.. golden words👍

The best version EVER!

Rocky é uma lição de vida, meu ídolo!! Não importa o quanto você bata e sim o quanto você aguenta apanhar e seguir em frente, é assim que se vence!!

I used to listen to practicing basketball. I remember when parents came after seeing Rocky I in the 70s such happy innocent times. Miss you Mom and Dad❤️

emotion, inspiration, motivation, this sound is divine

One of the only songs in history that makes one want to rise up to any obstacles in life and Win!!

Christ even to this day after all these years and seeing the films so much ive lost count, when Adrian tells rocky to win and this song kicks in...still get goose bumps!!! i mean PUMPED isnt a strong enough word

Till today, no other soundtrack and movie has motivated and pumped me up like rocky has

This musical composition will live forever in our hearts !!

I’m gonna turn this into my morning alarm clock 🔥

I’m not sure if Bill intended to make a theme/song that would transcend the movie(s), but he absolutely succeeded in doing so. This music will play with the heart strings at your very core when you’ve forgotten who you are and are lost and pick you up when there’s nothing left/numb/confused and are at bottom. It can also keep you going when you have motivation and take you to the finish line and then some. This music is the definition of a masterpiece.

Without this.no step forward! from Japan

No Matter how hard you Try, no Matter how many times you try , keep on giving all you got until the end.....!!!!!!Salute!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much bill for inspiring millions your music will always endure my great italian people

Rocky me enseñó a amar el sufrimiento para convertirlo en mis propias alas. Esta composición, el coraje de Rocky y el valor de Adrian han sido mi stamina.

Uncommon amongst the uncommon! I will overcome these ignorant ,cancerous, and destructive people one day! Failure is the best reason to try again! ~NIL SINE MAGNO LABORE~ Thank you, David.

When your life getting sick and tired, listen this!. Can get them over!

Some of the best music ever is found in the Rocky movies. It really makes you want to keep on taking the punches and saying you ain't scared, you're still standing, and you're going to win! David Goggins was inspired by Rocky. I am inspired by both.

Bill conti is an amazing composer awesome stirring music love it 😎

Music full of heart, when you feel down and can't move on, listen to this...

One of the most motivating movie themes I know and therefore one of my favorites. I thank Patrick Bennett for uploading this playlist, I never tire of listening to it especially when I'm exercising at home or in the gym or when I'm doing a college assignment that requires my full concentration. Rocky is my inspiration!

I see a lot of men and women of culture here. Stay hard and keep grinding !

This piece is one of the most iconic, memorable and arguably the most inspirational instrumentations that has ever been written. Now there is always going to be detractors no matter where you go, why I have no clue. But when Muhammad Ali took on Chuck Wepner, and Sylvester Stallone, witnessing this, locked himself away for three days power writing a script, and all the people that he gathered for this particular project. Wound up producing one of the most memorable and lovable characters not just in Hollywood but in American pop culture. And this music which is as synonymous with Rocky Balboa and Sylvester Stallone, is just as memorable as Isaac Hayes's theme from shaft is as synonymous with Richard Roundtree and the character he played John Shaft. As far as I'm concerned, when you hear Bill Conti's piece and all it's orchestration, it makes you think, raises your conscience, makes your heart pump a little harder, makes you feel so damned determined that you find yourself saying "If he can go the distance, I can go the distance." And eventually you realize two things. One, eventually we all realize whether we want to or not that if we want it bad enough sooner or later we all have to go the distance. And two, all of us are more than just a bunch of bums from the neighborhood.

I'm running the Philadelphia Marathon in three weeks. This will be on the final race playlist!

Yes!!! It’s about life! I am playing the theme to get me through a rough patch! Soo good and motivating!

De pie... Porque micky te ama!! Jamás olvidaré eso.

Tienes un sueño, y comienzas a trabajar para conseguirlo, pero el camino es duro y adverso, te caes y te levantas, te rompes y te arrastras, tu corazón, tu mente y tu cuerpo tus piernas no se rinden, siguen y siguen, porque llegar a esa meta tendrás la felicidad y la recompenza de todo ese duro camino. Tu Alma recibe el tono más alto de esta hermosa música. Lo lograste, lloras y sonríes, ríes.. Lo imposible lo hiciste posible.

One of the most powerful movie scenes ever, thanks in large part to this music.

The movie and soundtrack captured my heart from Day One.

This is what we needed 10 years ago. But we have it now. Extended...

Thank you for this @Patrick Bennett May Bill and his orchestra Rest In Peace. He has done us all a great service with this piece of music.

When this comes on, you know you can not lose no matter what. No matter what.

This song is how to say "Keep fighting" with no words!

Dont give up,Dont ever give up engraved on the back side of my late boxing trainers tombstone.R.I.P Ray.Those words inspired me like this song hits me hard.

Everyone has to play the role of Rocky at least once in their own lives ! It’s a must!!

I don’t know why it motivates me a lot at the gym!

This tune "Going the Distance"🎺🎶 has so many elements within it, which is why it still inspires!🥊It evokes Pain, Longing, Hope, Courage and Triumph! It's a timeless Masterpiece! 🎼 No Pain, no Gain!💪👍✌🕊

Not how hard you hit, how hard you can get hit and keeping moving forward. How hard you can take and keeping forward , that's how winning is done!!

How happ I am with this song!. every body can change, Japan

Scientifically proven that you can run 25% faster and longer when listening to this song.
