@murderousbastard83 Yep, Frankie Sullivan has a writing credit for this. Jim Peterik (Survivor keyboardist) also co-wrote it. Gary Smith (whoever he is) co-wrote it too.
@rpmangin Yeah, you're totally right. What I should have said is that the guys from Survivor wrote it. Jim Peterik (guitarist and keyboardist, lyricist), Frankie Sullivan (guitarist), and Gary Smith (drummer).
See AMANDA OVERMYER sing this same cover song ROCKIN INTO THE NIGHT at all her Rock concerts while on tour promoting her new Album SOLIDIFY (itunes). You can see Overmyer's version also posted over YOUTUBE ...

I saw these guys at the western idaho fair and they came onto the stage unannounced and just busted out this song. it was the most epic show entrance ive ever seen.

This is why I love classic rock and I am only 25 myself. My dad showed me what good rock was from an early age and this is it. Rock music isnt what it used to be I can sure say that.
Great song from one of the hottest US-ROCK bands of all time! There´s another version of this song, performed by SURVIVOR (The guys of " Eye of the Tiger).
err...rock band, sorry :-)
