This must be the morning after his fight with Creed if that silhouette is anything to go by. It's a gritty Philadelphia morning, back when Rocky movies were still gritty and that 80s superhero aesthetic hadn't set in yet. And there's talk around the city about how some nobody actually got in the ring with Apollo Creed and outlasted his punches. Didn't win, but he didn't die, which is crazy. I feel inspired to know this. What ordinary people are capable of.
@HereForTheComments That is an amazing theory. Probably would've happened in the beginning of Rocky II, just after The Italian Stallion gets operated on, & goes to Apollo's hospital room with Rocky asking Apollo, "Did you give me your best?" Then the morning comes...
Just love this tune, played at normal speed or like this, I stand on my door step late at night or early in the morning listening to this makes me reflect on my life, the things I've seen and done in 60yrs, the good the bad n the ugly . About friends and family who are now long gone and this tune somehow enables me to enter an almost trance like state, as if I'm almost back there. My time in HM Forces and the combat stress that came with it after going through and seeing some tragic things happen to good friends . Thank you for posting this its an awesome tune and for me very healing and somewhat life transporting into memory's buried very deep mostly good some bad, but by n large makes life good just listening to it .
One of the most powerful sequences in the film is when Rocky tries to intervene with the young girl and be a role model, to get her away from being around bums. He thinks it takes one to know one (himself), but she sees through him and calls him out ("Screw you, Rocky!"), because he (still) is a bum. This sets him on a path of despair, confronting his shortcomings. You know, in boxing terms, there's something called "shadow boxing", when you just work on your punches with nothing to hit. I like to see Rocky as a man not fighting anyone, or fighting for anything (like the championship), he's fighting his shadow. The shadow of a man he is, takes form first in the meat on the hook in the butcher shop, where he just turns into a savage hitting it with all of his pain. But later, it takes the form of Apollo (who acts ridiculously, like a bum). Apollo stands in like a kind of a shadow of a man that Rocky is trying to overcome. I think of Rocky seeing Apollo as that shadow, and that's why he never stops getting up and hitting back at him. Rocky puts himself literally in the fight of his life. In a way, many of us feel like we go through life fighting our own shadow, our past, and struggling to define our future by overcoming a defining challenge in life, which is ourselves.
I’ve become a big fan of your channel. Listened to the terminator one again today. Looking forward to this one tomorrow morning. Thanks for your great work and I hope you keep making videos.
The soundtrack of despair...searching for answers, overcoming incredible odds..needing to find a way

Amazing, the first Rocky film will always be the classic for me!

@@Mattnova_116 To think that they two are building the world that Adonis Creed will someday inherit.
The song plays in Rocky after he drinks the eggs
@@silas23mill Yes, we are aware of that. 🙂
@@Mattnova_116 ohh I see now. I didn’t see the theory with the silhouette

I haven't seen "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" 1974 get an ambience it deserves. Maybe something to think about.
Done
Sorry this is destroying the original masterpiece some things can't be topped
If it is "destroying" the original, don't listen. Seems like you are emotionally attached to the original and are having a dear diary moment.
Yes this is trash and I had to listen to it to make that decision thanks for following up on my summary
@@U2m2 "destroying" implies you are still listening, and is the purpose of any remix to top the original? #TrashMind
@@U2m2😂 the only thing that is trash is YOUR channel 🍩 Tryna give fitness advice too 😅
@zerox3921 no the music is I thought I made that clear it's trash not o e bit of your crying can change that
