Music reviews of Rocky II (1979 Film)
Music Review: Back with Beautiful Music to Enjoy!
Rating: 5 Stars
1979: Rocky was back in "Rocky II"! Audiences could be entertained once again by their favorite hero. So could music lovers, with this stunning soundtrack.
Only 8 tracks?!! That may be your first reaction, but don't you worry, almost every musical piece of the film is included on this soundtrack!
--->(WARNING! The explanations of the Tracks can contain SPOILERS of the Movie!!)<---
1. Redemption - Yeah, Rocky is back! This song really captures that feeling. Being the main theme of Rocky II, Redemption is a completely new music track with hints in it that it is true music from a Rocky film. Rocky has just gone the distance and is transported to the hospital. The ambulances are riding through the dark city which is heard in the music, with another theme screaming: "Rocky is back!" through it. Length: (2:33)
2. Gonna Fly Now - Back is Rocky, so is the heartpumping Rocky theme! This time, a bit different from the original. More funky and even more seventies than the one the Rocky I soundtrack. Now, instead of adult voices, childeren are now singing the lyrics of the song, which gives a great power-up feeling. Length: (2:33)
3. Conquest - Rocky's back in the ring with Apollo for a rematch and gives absolutely everything he has got! The music shows this powerfully. A fantastic tence fight needs fantastic tence music must have Bill Conti thought, and he delivers that sort of music in a perfect way! When Rocky feels his strength leaving him, the music shows that feeling. When he's back fighting, the music lets you hear that! The music is just screaming: Go for it Rock!" Length: (4:36)
4. Vigil - Rocky's one and only true love Adrain has slipped into a coma. His world is upside down, his emotions are high up. His heart hurts and the music shows you that feeling. He doesn't wanna go on anymore. He is broken, defeated, without the love of his woman who he can't live without. The music guides your once again through Rocky's clouded soul with true emotion. Length: (6:29)
5. All My Life - A true seventies song which isn't in the movie. Sung by the same two people who sung "You take my Heart away" on the soundtrack of Rocky I (DeEtta Little and Nelson Pigford) A fun song about once again a strong and important character in the Rocky films: Love. Length: (3:58)
6. Overtune - The longest track on the soundtrack starts with the music of the very beginning of the film. The title of the film floats over the screen from right to left and then flips over to the ending of round 14 of the boxingmatch in part I. The fantastic music of that moment is heard once again. After that the music goes over in another great, kind of, contest of trumpets which is not heard in the movie but has familiar sounds in it. Then it continues as a true seventies tune that also isn't heard in the movie. You can hear tunes of "Gonna Fy Now" and "Going the Distance" in it. A truely fasenating tune.
Then the music goes to the moment where the match has ended and Rocky has won! The music sweeps up and goes all the way to the fantastic moment where Rocky screams in the microphone: "Yo Adrian, I did it!" A true goosbump moment. Then the music fades out and the Main theme "Redemption" is heard once again (which was besides the beginning, also at the end credits in the movie). Length: (8:37)
7. Two kinds of Love - Again sung by Frank Stallone, Sylvester Stallone's brother. The song begins with true fifties humming and soundmaking. Then the man starts to sing with his Streetcornor band. A great song which is in the film at the scene after Rocky and Adrian are married and are walking over the street back home. Length: (2:36)
8. All of my Life - Instrumentical version of the song it says on the cd, but this is a different version of the Rocky love theme if you ask me. Great soft music which is heard in the film when Rocky and Adrian are telling each other that they will never leave each other, right after their wedding, in the appartment. Lenght: (2:27)
So again a fantastic Soundtrack by Bill Conti.
Rocky was back in 1979, and so was Bill Conti! Enjoy!
