AllMusic | [3] |
The soundtrack was hugely successful on the strength of two top-five singles, Survivor's "Burning Heart" (which Sylvester Stallone personally commissioned for the film and reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100)[4] and James Brown's "Living in America", as well as Robert Tepper's lone top-40 hit, "No Easy Way Out". It reached the top ten on the US Billboard 200 album chart[5] and was certified Platinum by the RIAA.[6]
It is the only score to a Rocky film not composed by Bill Conti, but does feature some music he composed for the first film.
