"The Grammy is still sitting on my recording console. The money doesn’t suck, but the best royalty is that I’ll be in the supermarket and meet random people who tell me the song has affected their lives in a positive way. It’s helped people through cancer or a heart attack. I know people that have been on the operating table and asked to have Eye of the Tiger playing. That’s the real shit."
This is what everything's about. If everyone wrote software, designed boards, worked like this...
- agumonkey 7y agoit's hard to have your software heard at the supermarket though, unless you design point of sale
- paulgerhardt 7y agoOnce wrote some firmware for a barcode scanner. Didn’t think of it as a musical instrument. This morning Twitter showed me otherwise: https://twitter.com/crab_feet/status/1222165813135720448 https://twitter.com/crab_feet/status/1222165813135720448
- bonniemuffin 7y agoNo joke, this song has had a huge positive impact on my life. When I was learning to walk again after a broken ankle, I would put on Eye of the Tiger when I thought I couldn't go any farther, and it would help me walk just a little bit more. When I was having my baby and the pushing phase of labor got really intense and I started freaking out, we put on Eye of the Tiger and it helped me keep going and avoid an emergency c-section. I wish I knew how to contact them and thank them for writing it!

- bonniemuffin 7y agoThanks, I sent them a note and got a reply from a human saying she'll pass it on to them. :)
