The Story of "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor....Jim Peterik, formerly of the band SURVIVOR tells the story of having Sylvester Stallone pitch his answering machine to do the soundtrack theme for the 1982 classic film Rocky 3. Freddie Mercury and Queen had rejected Sly Stallone''s request to have "Another One Bites the Dust" in the film so the rookie band Survivor got their shot with "Eye of the Tiger" and logged 6 weeks at #1!
