The Moment of Truth (Survivor song)

"The Moment of Truth" is a song recorded by the rock band Survivor. It was the first hit single with their new lead singer Jimi Jamison (from Cobra, replacing Dave Bickler due to vocal problems). After making the No. 1 hit "Eye of the Tiger" for Rocky III, the band was asked to perform a composed song for the 1984 film The Karate Kid. The song reached No. 63 on the Billboard Hot 100 on July 7, 1984 and stayed on the chart for seven weeks.[1] The song was later re-issued on the Vital Signs album in 2009 by Rock Candy.
