Survivor
"Vital Signs"

Released in 1984

Survivor was a band from Chicago. They broke out with the song "Eye of the Tiger" from Rocky III and became huge with this album, which had 3-4 big hits. This is an album with a very heavy 80s vibe to it. It might be too saccharine for many, but I still enjoy it.

Here are two more tracks to check out
