Mostly when I write the music comes first and the lyrics just seem to pop into my head, In that way I think the Lyrics suit the music best, The riffs on this tune are really punchy so when the lyrics came I started to think about a fight. Eventually the theme of the song evolved into telling the story of The Rumble in the Jungle between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman.

Also the lyrics had another significance for me because of the fact that at the time Muhammad Ali was the underdog being thirty two years old. Im the eldest in Glyder and in my thirties now , ten years older than the other guys in the band. The fact that Ali could be a world champion in his thirties gave me the courage to know if I focus hard I can be successful in my endeavors in my thirties. Muhammad Ali's challenge to prove he was the greatest is like my challenge to prove that Glyder are the greatest! I think you have to keep a very positive frame of mind to be successful in anything you do, to quote from the song "A winners mind, you could see it in his eyes".

When we originally recorded the song I used samples from a BBC commentary and from Muhammad Ali himself speaking before the match but we could not get permission to use either so we had to remove the samples and remix the track. I got my friend to do the commentary you hear at the start of the song and after the guitar solo. Maybe someone might leak the original onto the web sometime!

In the songs performance Tony sings the song almost like he is the commentator of the match. The chorus is very strong with layers of harmonies. Pete plays a very effective solo which he double tracked and this gives it a chorus effect. The end of the song is a mass of drum fills almost like the final punches in a boxing match.

Its three minutes of honest contemporary Classic Rock, It will make you feel good, so check it out!
