Gonna Fly Now (Theme from Rocky) is the theme song from the movie Rocky (1976), composed by Bill Conti. It combined a funky pop groove with a rock symphonic feel and was an instant hit, winning an oscar for Best original song in a film for that year. The song became part of 1970s American popular culture after the film's main character and namesake Rocky Balboa as part of his daily training regime runs up the 72 stone steps leading to the entrance of the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Philadelphia and raises his arms in a victory pose, while the song plays, it's an iconic moment in film.
