Survivor was an American rock band formed in Chicago in 1978 by Jim Peterik and Frankie Sullivan. The band achieved commercial success in the 1980s with five top ten singles in the United States. The band is best known for their 1982 hit "Eye of the Tiger", the theme song for the film Rocky III which spent six weeks at number one in the US.

Dave Bickler was the band's vocalist from 1978 to 1983, appearing on the band's first four albums. He left the band after a vocal injury and was replaced by Jimi Jamison in 1984. With Jamison, the band had several hits including "High on You", "The Search Is Over", "Burning Heart" and "Is This Love" before going on hiatus in 1988

The band returned in 1993 with Bickler, but Jamison replaced him again in 2000. Their final album Reach (2006) was their first in 18 years. After the album, Jamison left the band and Robin McAuley became the singer. In 2011 Jamison returned for his third stint as vocalist. The band then toured with both Bickler and Jamison on vocals in 2013, which lasted until Jamison's death in 2014.

Whether "Burning Heart" or "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor is better is a subjective opinion, though "Eye of the Tiger" is more well-known and was a bigger hit. Both are iconic theme songs for the Rocky franchise, with "Eye of the Tiger" from Rocky III being an anthem for personal triumph and "Burning Heart" from Rocky IV serving as a geopolitical anthem reflecting the Cold War.

I don't know which one is better, but I know I've heard Eye of the Tiger enough times that I don't ever wanna hear it again. I'm not there yet with Burning Heart.
