Seriously one of the most underrated songs of all time. This is music production perfection from start to finish, everything from the big lead kick stomping out the intro leading into the growling guitar riffs, beefy basslines, humble electric toms, elevating synths with everything perfectly panned and balanced, every instrument and voice heard as an equal within it's own sonic space. The rebellious lyrics paired with a defiant instrumental, the way it explodes from the first bridge into that 3rd verse and let's not forget that electric guitar work on the outro... The band, writer, singer and mixing/mastering engineer(s) should all be hailed for this absolute masterpiece.
I used to dream about how it would be When I would be older, when I'd really be free When no one would tell me how to live my life How to waste my days, how to spend my nights (my nights!) But I finally decided, yes, I finally decided I'm finding out the hard way Exactly what I want to say, I want to say I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough To rock and roll, gonna rock, gonna rock Gonna rock! They tell me I'm young and I don't know What's the right thing to do, the right way to go They're so afraid I'm gonna let them down I'm gonna mess things up when I mess around But I finally decided, I finally decided It's my responsibility, I don't need nobody, don't need no one I don't need anyone but me I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough To rock and roll Can't you see I'm changing? My smile is rearranging I'm taking full control You can't ignore me anymore And now I believe I have finally arrived, I'm young and alive, I'm in my prime No one can stop me cause I'm on my way Gonna do what I do, gonna have my say I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough! Now I believe I have finally arrived, I'm young and alive, I'm feeling fine! No one can stop me cause I'm on my way Gonna do what I do, gonna have my say And I finally decided, yes I decided, I finally decided It's my responsibility I don't need anyone but me I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough! I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough! I'm old, I'm old, I'm old enough I'm bad enough, I'm strong enough I'm old enough to rock and roll, to rock and roll!
This song, about 18 years ago costed me roughly $800.00. I was "coasting" at 95 in a 40, that Black '88 Pontiac 6000 magically grew another set of wheels, my foot turned into lead, the music took over. Me: "Well, Good Morning Officer." Him: "Do you know that you were doing 95 in a 40?" Me: "Yes Sir, I figured it looked better than 135, I backed out of it about a mile back." (With a cocky grin) Him: (Blank Expression)
Doug Masters:Shit!! Knotcher: Rough landing,ha ha! It was just a joke,man. Doug Masters:It was pretty funny. You could have killed me! Knotcher: What?? Doug Masters:I said " *you could have killed me* " ! Knotcher: Couldn't hear you. (Doug Masters sucker-punches Knotcher) Doug Masters:Can you hear me *NOW* ? Knotcher: Shit!!
Still listening in 2023! I heard this for the first time as a kid when I saw Iron Eagle for the 1st time!
This is my neighbors’ favorite song . . . whether they like it or not.

At the time when the movies gave an emotion to watch, today much of it has been lost
Totally forgot how much this song ROCKS!
Keep jammin to the tunes cause you zoomin!
What’s wrong Reg don’t you feel like flying....
Reggie: flying yes, dying... no.

If this song doesn't get you motivated you need a cattle prod !
I used to dream about how it would be
When I would be older, when I'd really be free
When no one would tell me how to live my life
How to waste my days, how to spend my nights (my nights!)
But I finally decided, yes, I finally decided
I'm finding out the hard way
Exactly what I want to say, I want to say
I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough
I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough
To rock and roll, gonna rock, gonna rock
Gonna rock!
They tell me I'm young and I don't know
What's the right thing to do, the right way to go
They're so afraid I'm gonna let them down
I'm gonna mess things up when I mess around
But I finally decided, I finally decided
It's my responsibility, I don't need nobody, don't need no one
I don't need anyone but me
I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough
I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough
To rock and roll
Can't you see I'm changing?
My smile is rearranging
I'm taking full control
You can't ignore me anymore
And now I believe I have finally arrived,
I'm young and alive, I'm in my prime
No one can stop me cause I'm on my way
Gonna do what I do, gonna have my say
I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough
I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough!
Now I believe I have finally arrived,
I'm young and alive, I'm feeling fine!
No one can stop me cause I'm on my way
Gonna do what I do, gonna have my say
And I finally decided, yes I decided, I finally decided
It's my responsibility
I don't need anyone but me
I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough!
I'm old enough to rock and roll, I'm old enough!
I'm old, I'm old, I'm old enough
I'm bad enough, I'm strong enough
I'm old enough to rock and roll, to rock and roll!
THANK YOU so much for posting this!!! Loved this song from Iron Eagle but it wasn't on the soundtrack!
Anthony Dixon too many good songs to fit into a cassette 😐
Love this on snake ⛰ in Iron Eagle!!
I like driving while listening to this sound.
I think you meant flying...
Watch out for low flying Cessnas
Don’t transform into a hood ornament
Ohh man! That music is jammin D!

I have a black 80 Camaro with a 383 Stroker that magically does the same thing.
Classic love it
Doug Masters:Shit!!
Knotcher: Rough landing,ha ha! It was just a joke,man.
Doug Masters:It was pretty funny. You could have killed me!
Knotcher: What??
Doug Masters:I said " *you could have killed me* " !
Knotcher: Couldn't hear you. (Doug Masters sucker-punches Knotcher)
Doug Masters:Can you hear me *NOW* ?
Knotcher: Shit!!
Knotcher acted like Malfoy, but A LOT worse. Do you agree?
@@Thunderlion-yd4nv Fully agree 100%!!
I quote this regularly with my brother. so many other quotes "Not... Doug Masters"
Buena!! Fuerza y melodia.
"Well, he almost started a new career as a hood ornament."
Yeah
“Alright guys I’m climbing..”
"I'm coming up on Natcher............I can beat him" Classic!!!!!
Section of the song where they are zoomed in on Notchers wheel Spokes and the guitar is growling is classic
