This song is the jam. It came out in 1985 for the movie Rocky IV. The song was played during the movie when Carl Weathers was about to fight Dolph Lundgren. Dolph was lookin around like what in the hell is going on when this song was played LOL. There was female dancers & fireworks when Dolph was lookin around. Carl had on a america outfit dancing around in the ring LOL. Carl ended up getting his ass beat to death LOL. I guess he shouldn't have came out showboating like he did. James Brown's performance in the movie was tight.

I love the song "Living in America". It was one of James Brown's best. And it was also a patriotic song. When "Living in America" came out, it was also used as a parody for a novelty song by Weird Al Yankovic entitled "Living With a Hernia".

I don't really think James Brown compares to Weird Al was a crazy thing. James Brown's song was from the "Rocky 4" soundtrack. The song "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor was from the "Rocky 3" soundtrack also.
