"I'm Alive" is a song written by Tommy James and first recorded and released in 1968 by American singer Johnny Thunder. Thunder's recording of "I'm Alive" was a "raucous" rock single, featuring "Verbal Expressions of T.V." as its B-side.

Well, I can't believe it. Everyone I've talked to, I've asked them if they've heard that record. It was one of the most powerful records I've ever heard. It's called 'I'm Alive.' By Johnny Thunder. Well, it was that sentiment, truly expressed. That's the most I can say ... if you heard the record, you'd know what I mean." James recorded and released his version in 1969 with his band the Shondells as part of their album ''Crimson & Clover''. It was released as a B-side for the single "Crystal Blue Persuasion".

Soundtrack
A soundtrack is recorded music accompanying and synchronised to the images of a motion picture, drama, book, television program, radio program, or video game; a commercially released soundtrack album of music as featured in the soundtrack of a film, video, or television presentation; or the physical area of a film that contains the synchronised recorded sound.

A ''dubbing track'' is often later created when films are dubbed into another language. This is also known as an M&E (music and effects) track. M&E tracks contain all sound elements minus dialogue, which is then supplied by the f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
