Man against the World ( Un hombre contra el mundo) SURVIVOR

Have you ever walked the night alone
Like a man against the world?
No one takes your side,
A boat against the tide.
When your faith is shaken,
You start to break,
And your heart can't find the words.
Tossed upon the sand,
I give you a man against the world.

All the people cheer till the end is near
Then the hero takes a fall.
They'll drag you through the mud.
You're only flesh and blood.
Oh I've walked the path from dark to light
And have yet to come to terms.
Alone I take my stand,
I'm only a man against the world.

*But love!
Like a distant reminder,
It tugs at my shoulder,
It calls me home.
I shout!
Can a single voice carry?
Can I find santuary,
Within your arms?
someday when the answer's clearer,
someday when I even the score,
You'll reach and you'll find me with you,
Right beside you,
Forever more!

But for now I walk the night alone,
Like a man against the world.
A brand new day will shine,
Through the avalanche of time.
Though the road is long,
But the feeling's strong,
And the fire within still burns.
Alone I take my stand,
I give you a man against the world

Esta banda fue formada en 1977 por Jim Peterik ( guitarrista y vocalista de Ides for March) y Frankie Sullivan. Inicialmente la banda estuvo integrada por ellos dos más el vocalista Dave Bickler ( posteriormente reemplazado por Jimi Jamison), Gary Smith y Dennis Johnson.

Dicen que Silvester Stallone los llevó a la fama en 1982, luego de escuchar el single "Poor Man's Son" quiso un tema similar para la película "Rocky III". Es así como nace "eye of the tiger", que llegó a ser número 1 en el bilboard americano.

Letra en Castellano Eye of the Tiger de Survivor

Voy subiendo por las calles,
tomé mi tiempo y mis riesgos.
Fue la distancia y de regreso en mis pies
solo un hombre y su deseo de sobrevivir.

Muchas veces, pasa muy rápido,
cambiar tu pasión por la gloria.
No pierdas fe en lo que llegaste a desear,
debes pelar para mantenerlo vivo.

Es el ojo del tigre
Listo para pelear,
se levanta para retar a su rival.
y es el último que queda
Caza su presa por la noche
Y él nos ve a todos
Con el ojo de tigre

Cara a cara, afuera en el calor
Es difícil aguantar, estando hambriento.
Las probabilidades están hasta que tomemos el camino,
Matamos hábilmente para sobrevivir.

Es el ojo del tigre
Listo para pelear,
se levanta para retar a su rival.
y es el último que queda
Caza su presa por la noche
Y él nos ve a todos
Con el ojo de tigre

Subiendo directo a la cima
Tenía el coraje, conseguí la gloria
Fue la distancia, ahora no voy a parar
sólo un hombre y su deseo de sobrevivir.


Letra en Ingles Eye of the Tiger de Survivor

Risin' up back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the Eye of the Tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all
with the Eye of the Tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds until we take to the street
For we kill with the skill to survive

It's the Eye of the Tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all
with the Eye of the Tiger


Risin' up straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

"Is this love" es del año 1986 y pertenece al álbum "When Seconds Count", interpretado por Jimi Jamison.

Is this love

(Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan)



I've heard talk of blind devotion
Lovers through thick and thin
Lives touched with real emotion
Faithful 'til the bitter end
Now, I must admit that the story's attractive
I've lost in far too many affairs
I've seen all the pain that the morning can bring
I need to prove to myself
This is more than a crush
Can you convince me it's not just a physical rush

Is this love that I'm feelin'
Is this love that's been keepin' me up all night
Is this love that I'm feelin
Is this love

So many nights in blind confusion
I've walked the line of love
We reach out in disillusion
When one night isn't nearly enough
Now, I'd like to know that for once in my life
I'm sure of what tomorrow may bring
I've heard all your talk ,can I take it to heart
Now look me straight in the eye'
Cause tonight is the night
We've got to ask each other if the moment is right

Is this love that I'm feelin'
Is this love that's been keepin' me up all night
Is this love that I'm feelin
Is this love
I've tread those mean streets, blind alleys
Where the currency of love changes hands
All touch -- no feelin'
Just another one night stand
I need to know that there's someone who cares
Could you be the angel to answer my prayer?

Is this love that I'm feelin'
Is this love that's been keepin' me up all night
Is this love that I'm feelin
Is this love

High on you



There you stood, that'll teach ya
To look so good and feel so right
Let me tell you 'bout the girl I met last night
It's understood, I had to reach ya
I let the wheel of fortune spin
I touched your hand before the crowd Started
crushin' in

Now I'm higher than a kite
I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch in the middle
Of the street and I

--*I can't stop thinking 'bout you girl
I must be living in a fantasy world
I'm high on you

*Smart and coy, a little crazy
The kinda face that starts a fight
Let me tell you 'bout the girl I had last night
Piercin' eyes, like a raven
You seemed to share my secret sin
We were high before the night
Started kickin' in

Now I'm screamin' in the night
I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch in the middle
Of the street and I --( * Repeat)


--*I can't stop thinking 'bout you girl
I must be living in a fantasy world
I've searched the whole world over
To find a heart so true
Such complete intoxication
I'm high on you

There you stood, that'll teach ya
To look so good and feel so right
Let me tell you 'bout the girl I met last night

Now I'm screamin' in the night
I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch in the middle
Of the street and I

--*I can't stop thinking 'bout you girl
I must be living in a fantasy world
I've searched the whole world over
To find a heart so true
Such complete intoxication
I'm high on you
I'm high on you
I'm high on you.

The search is over.

How can I convince you what you see is real?
¿Cómo puedo convencerte que lo qué ves es real?

Who am I to blame you for doubting what you feel?
¿Quién soy yo para culparte por poner en duda lo que sientes?

I was always reachin', you were just a girl I knew
siempre estaba alcanzando, tú eras sólo una chica que conocía

I took for granted the friend I have in you
subestimé a la amiga que tengo en ti



I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
Estaba viviendo para un sueño, amando por un momento

taking on the world, that was just my style
apoderándome del mundo, ese era sencillamente mi estilo

now I look into your eyes
ahora veo en tus ojos

I can see forever, the search is over
puedo ver por siempre, la búsqueda ha terminado

You were with me all the while
estabas conmigo todo el tiempo



Can we last forever, will we fall apart?
¿Podremos durar por siempre, nos separaremos?

at times it's so confusing, these questions of the heart
en ocasiones es tan confuso, estas preguntas del corazón

you followed me through changes and patiently you'd wait
tú me sigues a través de los cambios y, pacientemente esperarías

till I came to my senses through some miracle of fate
hasta que volviera a la sensatez, a través de algún milagro del destino



I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
Estaba viviendo para un sueño, amando por un momento

taking on the world, that was just my style
apoderándome del mundo, ese era sencillamente mi estilo

now I look into your eyes
ahora veo en tus ojos

I can see forever, the search is over
puedo ver por siempre, la búsqueda ha terminado

you were with me all the while
estabas conmigo todo el tiempo



Now the miles stretch out behind me
Ahora los kilómetros se alejan de mí

loves that I have lost
amores que he perdido

broken hearts lie victims of the game
corazones rotos yacen víctimas del juego

then good luck it finally struck
entonces la buena suerte finalmente golpeó

like lightning from the blue
como relámpagos desde el azul

every highway leading me back to you
cada carretera conduciéndome de vuelta a ti



Now at last I hold you, now all is said and done
Ahora por fin te sujeto, ahora todo está dicho y hecho

the search has come full circle
la búsqueda a completado el círculo

our destinies are one
nuestros destinos son uno

so if you ever loved me
así que si alguna vez me amaste

show me that you give a damn
demuéstrame que te importa un demonio

you'll know for certain
con certeza sabrás

the man I really am
el hombre que realmente soy



I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
Estaba viviendo para un sueño, amando por un momento

taking on the world, that was just my style
apoderándome del mundo, ese era sencillamente mi estilo

when I touched your hand
cuando toqué tu mano

I could hear you whisper, the search is over
podía escucharte susurrar, la búsqueda ha terminado

love was right before my eyes
el amor estaba justo enfrente de mis ojos

I Can't Hold Back




There's a story in my eyes
Turn the pages of desire
Now it's time to trade those dreams
For the rush of passion's fire
I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us
I've been holding back the night
I've been searching for a clue from you
I'm gonna try with all my might
To make this story line come true

Can ya feel me tremble when we touch
Can ya feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us
This love affair can't wait

*I can't hold back, I'm on the edge
(I can't hold back)
You voice explodes inside my head
I can't hold back, I won't back down
Girl it's too late to turn back now*

Another shooting star goes by
And in the night the silence speaks to you and I
And now the time has come at last
Don't let the moment run too fast
I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate
reaching out to both of us
There's a story in my eyes,
turn the pages of desire
Now it's time to trade those dreams
For the rush of passion's fire
( * Repeat)
