Bill Conti - You Take My Heart Away (Rocky)

[knaccari]

What a touching production! If this doesn't move you,  you're dead.Cross your hands and close the coffin! Conti at his best. joshua77

[CrackHoe32]

This song still touches my heart & soul .....so beautiful !!!

[sopranosfan87]

9 people never had a heart to begin with.

[mistermattmoose]

if mickey had told me that women weaken legs, i would have told him, yo! no problem, mick! i just won't do her standin' up, ya know!

[rcmodder]

This song helped me get through mile 22 in the LA marathon last year. Took my mind off the heavy wind and freezing rain.

[Grafo7771]

This song is a true 1970's Romantic Song that fits Rocky As a Boxer who falls inlove with a Beautiful Women named Adrian. and the Ghetto Streets of Philadelphia. In the 1970's where there were bullies, punks, Metal Heads, Street Fighters, Prostitues,Junkies and Drug Dealers... Rocky Rocky Rules.

[666Doncha]

i needed dislike this..cause this song is about love..i m like all movies about rocky..idk how i went here..but however..bye..lol..other soundtrack are good..

[flyforce16]

Yo! Adrian!

[DavidLTG]

i have all orginal albums from rocky on cd and i am proud of it. Thank you Stallone for this all!! YOU ARE THE BEST!

[PatScooter]

Hi.....one of the best northern soul dancing songs I have heard...smooth.

[dlynnatkinson]

Still one of my fav movies and soundtracks. Played the record so much back in '77 that it got thin! I always said "Rocky" was a love story about a boxer!

[abiwhale]

Bill Conti got a ton of mileage out of this song: he actually combined the movie's opening fanfare with the basic structure of this tune to write 'Gonna Fly Now'. It's also the basis for the exquisite 'Mickey' .

Most importantly, it's the soundtrack of Adrian's blossoming into true womanhood. Great, great tune...

[Italianmedallion1]

I wanna Kiss ya, u dont have to kiss me back if you dont wanna... but i wanna kiss you

[lexlucid909]

This is an underrated song. I don't know about the "most...ever" though. But this song is like the music they used to play at the very end of James Bond movies when they would have the silhouettes of hot women while the credits were rolling.

[oneputtsteven]

@lexlucid909 Well they were both products of the same era, '70's.

[mistermattmoose]

all--time most underrated movie song. superb vocals by de etta and nelson. wonderful date music. they don't make them like this any more.

[juliohhc]

;)

[hatzinal]

rocky 4 > rocky 1

[LeroySpeed]

@hatzinal no

[Feon2]

@hatzinal rocky 4 is the worst one. He looked like a boxing version of captain america.

[HeroOfTime121]

@Feon2 I thought Rocky IV was awesome. Now, in terms of good lines it is a bit of a slacker. However, I loved the line where Ivan was getting frustrated by Rocky not going down, and said that he is not even human, he is a piece of iron. That was one of my favorite parts of every Rocky movie.

[mixedwoodplain]

Brilliant writing; variations on the main theme. Love it!

[oneroof1433]

I remember hearing this song for the 1st time on my 8-track player, yes 8 track. I had the ROCKY soundtrack. I was like, when was this song played in the movie. I had to re-watch the movie. There it was, when Rocky puts on the record player and softly in the backgrround this song plays. The ROCKY movies weren't about the fights, but a love story. GREAT SONG!!!

[WYTwrestling]

If I make a porno I'm using this.

[archisaacyout]

burgess meredith....._the pinguin - in batman...

[LTDeivisNr1]

if someone dislike this then send me your adresses so i could come and assassinate you!

[fab4fan4ever64]

RIP Burgess Meredith...

[beaconmike]

So sad that this song never even made it to the radio airwaves. It would have been a hit, as the duo stuff such as Lionel Ritchie and Diana Ross were also hitting at this time...............it would've been a contendah! Wonder whatever happened to Nelson Pigford and DeAtta Little? Great voices, who should have had careers, but they probably had great studio musician contracts. My best to them for singing one of the greatest songs that never got noticed.

[MrLionesslover]

Brings back beautiful memories and brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it. One of the best movie soundtracks of all time!

[chickiesgrettagirl]

@MrLionesslover agreed :)

[TrikkyMakk]

this whole album is just awesome

[elinorvonzahm]

Follow this with "Alone in the Ring"....crying yet?

[lisa4615]

im a girl & i adore the rocky series,,,,,,,,stallone is the man! yo adrian !

[al122385]

Now this song's got spirit! It says love with every bit of it, on a most sincere and flawlessly executed way.

What happened...? How did it come that a genuine love song like this is replaced nowadays by "Baby" from... someone I dare not name in the sanctity of this web space...

[StraightOuttaDC]

"What's this?", a friend asked once.

"It's what music sounds like.", I says.

[StraightOuttaDC]

"Stay away from that pet shop, dame. Women weaken legs."

"Yeah, Mick, but I really like this girl, ya know?"

"WELL THEN LET HER TRAIN YA!".

[Gvieto]

@StraightOuttaDC Got to love that Burgess. He was great as  Mickey Goodmill.

[Gvieto]

@StraightOuttaDC Got to love that Burgess. He was great as Mickey Goodmill.

[StraightOuttaDC]

@Gvieto

Goldmill.

[Gvieto]

@StraightOuttaDC Sorry I goofed. Thank you for the correction.

[AyesThatsme]

love this song, it has that feeling to it, you know? that feeling? lol.

[omnigifted]

Definitely one of the Best Movie soundtracks of all time!

[rejectedreject]

"Women weaken legs." :P

[sedden]

Best for tonight ;) 

[thegroove2000]

The best score for any film i have ever heard. Totally moved me this tonight, the whole rocky album and ive got to say, bill conti is a genius, up there with quincy jones,herbie hancock who created some of the best music for films that i love and cherish. TIMELESS and TRANCENDING.

[LEOJEAL18]

BUEN DIA ESTOY BUSCANDO LA TRADUCCION DE ESTA CANCION NO LA ENCUENTRO,,,GRACIAS

[meme18me]

I kept on re-watching the scene between Adrian and Rocky, straining to hear the lyrics of this song over their voices just so I could type the words into Google and find the song. I love this song!

[flyblondyfly]

@meme18me  Yes, I agree! I love the love scene where Rocky and Adrian are kissing and sliding down to the floor. This beautiful music makes it so romantic...and then there is the Rocky fanfare intertwined with the melody! All part of what makes Rocky one of my favorite movies.

[EkoluX3]

Such a great movie and an unbelievable soundtrack, brings back so many dear memories, Music is indeed timeless.

[vera1986]

Im gonna watch rocky the first part!! love rocky

[pattyfromtoledo]

this song is so beautiful - makes me cry

[liosmug29]

@pattyfromtoledo this song makes me cry as well !! so beautiful like no other !!

[NazaArgentino]

temazo :)

[bjroberts65]

ROCKY and ADRIAN.....4 EVER!!!

[BlueZweix]

Great, Fantastic.

Its warm embraces you not only for 5 minutes.

This song keeps you in the comfortable shelter of a young love that will grow without losing its freshness.

This is really one terrificly deep song... Just wondering why no one knows about Nelson Pigford and DeEtta Little, who sang it

[mitrooper]

This is a cover of a song by Shirley Bassey.

[MARIOBEN1]

should use this on DWTS

[mitrooper]

@MARIOBEN1 Yeah, DWTS right at ya...whatever DTWS means, yeez, next time type the wole word or sentence and after that use a abbrevation between brackets...

[MARIOBEN1]

@mitrooper

DWTS - Dancing With The Stars

[Luis2899]

Wow all these classic Rocky songs are just pure epic.

[TheSupeking]

hammer geils lied daumen hoch

[34gakon85]

Song is classic

[eaivan7]

Quisiera habér nacido en los 40´s y disfrutar de las epocas doradas de los 50´s, 60´s y 70´s. felicidades a todos

[tchwarzi]

is bill conti the singer ?

[fab4fan4ever64]

@tchwarzi No. Nelson Pigford sand this duet with DaEtta Little. Awesome...

[tchwarzi]

@fab4fan4ever64 ok! yes awsome it is

[TheGinger48]

@tchwarzi The Composer, rather. He did an amazing job.

[AvengefulAngel]

I wish i was born into the 70's today suks

[crabizback]

Music and Movies had alot of heart back in the 70's-80's

nowadays it's all about money and business...

[popizm]

@crabizback too true. back in the days they gave us their soul. nowadays they want ours. sad :,(

[74brooklynboi]

The 70's had some really beautiful music.

[StraightOuttaDC]

I like this song.

It actually reminds me of how attractive Talia Shire was back then.

[dhills2009]

That opening...it makes you feel like you're in a maze (of love) and it gets progressively harder and harder to escape. I need to take notes from Rocky and play this when I'm trying to win over a goddesses' heart!

[medickorea1973]

babyface4assasin...You're right about the 70's/80's era. But, there is cool songs, movies etc. that you can make your own.

[oneroof1433]

I had this sound track on my 8 track . Man i miss that old 8 track player.

Great movie, Great sound track. Can't tell you how many times i tried the egg thing.

[invitationtv]

When you mix brilliant composition with great and sweet voices and an inspirational and long living movie you will create a piece of music history!!

[Hadeydeppio]

bill conti<3

[FluffyBunniesOnFire]

@Hadeydeppio He is so much greater than 3!

[Hadeydeppio]

@FluffyBunniesOnFire ??that was a heart not a 3....im confused.

[JustGod7]

i know i left a comment already but i got to say this is a damn good song. it was really slept on. they need to start playing this on the classic soul stations.

[JustGod7]

i was born a year after ROCKY II came out but always been a big fan since i was a kid. i was wondering what the song was playing in the back ground when rocky and adrian first kissed. bill conti was mean on his production. sorry mr.conti but imma have to sample this sue me later. lmao

[geoffkap]

My wife and I walked down the aisle to this song 33 years ago. It is still as romantic as it was then.

[L256931]

LOVE this song...

[jwalts37]

This song made me cry. Im a 27 year old man and it put tears in my eyes. Beautiful.

[wwechamp7]

@jwalts37 wow...

[StraightOuttaDC]

I love Hip Hop. I'm more Neo-Soul than R&B, but this song beats a lot of today's classics. The forgotten ones just can't be beaten sometimes.

[rightfootrayray]

lLove the way Bill Conti transformed The main theme into a romantic ballad.plus it's soo...beautiful.

[MrButch1962]

@borntobewildpascal es preciosa

[speedjounetsu]

Well I suppose this is the song that inspired all the Rocky soundtracks right ???

Because all of them share the same combinations (with the exception of philadelphia morning)

[Frankiarmz]

What beautiful lyrics, they speak of the heart not just the physical part of Love". I'm old enough to have the album, but still young enough to appreciate the haunting message of those perfect voices. Thanks.

[edbies]

well put brother, well put

[csp1csp1]

thank you sooooooooo much for putting this gorgeous song on here !!!!!

[bapuja]

If you're lucky this song has been your truth, even if only briefly...

[rahulpower]

aww :D

[neweast1]

cant believe its been 34 years since i first saw this, music is timeless

[babyface4assassin]

@neweast1 Can't believe I wasn't born when you first saw this! I wish I was from the 70s/ 80s era. The greatest music, movies, etc.

[Apsu72]

If you've actually found love and this song comes on, there is no way possible you can sing it with 2 dry eyes. This song is incredibly powerful.

[devilskitchen08]

cheers m8 its me fave film

[mmangum4444]

my favorite love song, no doubt about.

[83beth]

this is the only scene where sylvester stallone is really sweet and sexy! loves the music!

[ChEpPe101]

i cant believe im hearing this song. I never knew the name of this song. YOU ROCK FOR THIS Wardrip06

[vtiger81]

The fact that this song did not get nominated, although Gonna Fly Now did get an Oscar nomination, does not reflect well on the Academy Awards. This was one of their worst mistakes.

[jjbb84]

I saw the Rocky movies WAY out of sequence, so when I finally got to the part where this song is used in Rocky I, it changed the entire context of the traditional Rocky theme (to me, it sounded like the fanfare was "based" on this song--if you get what I'm saying). Long story short, everytime I hear the Rocky fanfare, I don't think of Rocky anymore, I think of Rocky AND Adrian, which I'm sure is how it's supposed to be, with her being his biggest inspiration and all.

These movies are great!

[EastCoastDude99]

This song starts playing when Adrian wants to call Paulie..........Rock opens his window and screams "YO PAULIE, YOUR SISTER IS WITH ME". Fuckin CLASSIC!!

[Kenalcon]

I haven't heard this song in years!!! I just brings back so many memories of when I was young....and still beleived in love. Thanks for brining back some old feelings for at least a few moments.

[Frankiarmz]

Beautiful Love Song, brings back plenty of tender moments. Thanks.

[juliovtg]

whom sang this song?

[aam165]

Pretty sure it's D'Etta James and Nelson Pigford...

[takietamvideo]

Amazing.

[colognewest]

I hope to have it played at the reception...

[wlodi01]

[cosmocarboni]

wonderful!

[OldGlory2233]

Rocky is the greatest movie of all time.

[obxgc]

Most people don't even remember this song fro Rocky because it is played a background music to the emotional scene in Rocky's apt. It is one of my favorites.

[ebcanario]

raw. deep. like two ships crashing the night. God it makes me want to cry

[EastCoastDude99]

lol true.....this is when Rocky first kissed Adrian in his apartment, she was like, I need to call my brother, so Rock opens the window and yells, YO PAULIE, YOUR SISTER IS WITH ME, LOL Best movie ever.

[luutnantti111]

Was this in the movie or was this just an extra song for the soundtrack? I can't remeber it from the movie anyhow.

[Rivka1957]

The entire soundtrack was a masterpiece - even Frank Stallone's Take It Back - but this - this still takes my breath away.

[127crazie]

you're wrong. it takes your heart away.

ha good theme though

[antonep]

I dedicate this song to my future wife...Babe, I love you and I'll be FOREVER yours!!! xxx PEGA
