It's agreat song to hear. It's sad though that a few people connected to 'Best Of The Best' have passed away. Jim Capaldi in 2005, then Chris Penn practically a year later, and just two months ago John Dye, who played Virgil Keller. RIP guys.
I used to love this when I was six years old, by then it was 1998. I still love this movie to this day and I always look forward to hearing this song, this song plus the bar fight and the awesomeness that is James Earl Jones is something I will never forget, or any part of the movie for that matter.
I remember when I used to TaeKwon Do -- our instructors would have us watch this movie all the time! now I see why -- great movie! i bought all three movies with the BEst of the BEst!
I love this film, it brings back such great memories. They don't make films like this anymore. The old days were the better days. Chris Penn and Eric Roberts were so awesome in this!!!!!!
@Swearengen420 I totally meant to hit vote up but I accidentally hit the thumbs down. Sorry about that. I totally agree with you though. This film does bring back great memories.
I agree with skishred12. He was underrated. The contributions he made to Traffic were great. I never heard this song before. On a whim, I typed in his name on you tube and so saddened to hear of his passing on to the other side. I've got to get this song and others on my ipod. Now, I feel compelled to see the movie.
@kathrenmclean Yes ! I have been looking for it . They used to play this video at a club I went to. Saw the video so much I went out and bought the album.
Best of The Best ist one on my favourite KARATE movies...Philip Rhee was incredible technik he is damn good ! yeeea "old school times are the best times !!!!!!!! "
the lesser known voice behind Traffic, steve winwood handled most vocals, but ths "some Come Running" album by Capaldi reveals how good a voice he had, and the soulful and heartfelt lyrics he wrote, a great singer and drummer as well
I remember this song from 20 yrs ago. It was all over AOR radio back in the day. Ironically its original album peaked at #183 on the BB Top 200 Albums chart. Although the album sold somewhat poorly this song was still a Top 5 AOR hit. I had to look up that info. I think this song was also featured during a "Baywatch" epi (pre-Pam Anderson yrs) when NBC had the show. Great to hear it again.
I freaking love this movie!! CAN ANYONE POINT ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION TO GET THIS SONG!!! IVE BEEN TRING TO DOWNLOAD IT ALL DAY AND CANNOT FIND IT....
this song AND best of the best is on itunes for 99 cents each dude. you dont need an ipod to use itunes, download itunes from apple's website for free probably, go to the online store part, and look up these 2 songs.
I love this song, and especially the Movie. I'v got all the series original DVDs, never get fed up of watching them. Philip and Simon Rhee are great Martial Artists.
Thanks for posting..song makes me think about the good ol days. You could just be happy waking up everyday...then comes the day when life gets complicated and the happiness doesn't come so easy.
