Overview[edit]
Although the Conti version of 'Gonna Fly Now' is the most recognizable arrangement, a cover of the song performed by legendary trumpeter Maynard Ferguson on his Conquistador album prior to the release of the motion picture soundtrack actually outsold the soundtrack itself.[4] The version of Conti's 'Gonna Fly Now' released on later records and CDs differs from the version used in the film. The vocals and guitars are much more emphasized in the film than on the versions released. The 'movie version' has yet to be officially released.[citation needed]
They couldn't understand anything in English. I remembered the Korean streaming from the blizzcon.
