Reds (1981) using Perry Como, "Love Theme from Reds"
To a previous searcher looking for the 'Love theme from Reds' - this is probably "Goodbye for Now" by Perry Como, he sings it as a duet with an unknown lady. If that's not it try looking the movie up on IMDB, they have a soundtrack listing.

Rocky IV using Robert Tepper, "No Easy Way Out"
By far, the best song from the 'Rocky' movies. Every time I hear it, I wanna get into my car and just drive as fast as I can without any worries at all. - It just gives me a pure adrenaline rush whenever I hear it! An underrated song probably because it was performed by a guy who no one never heard of before and who ending up a one-hit wonder!
