Description

In honor of the U.S. Air Force’s 74th birthday, we present an inspirational hit song from the 1976 cinematic classic, “Rocky”!

The United States Air Force Band is proud to serve alongside over 680,000 Active Duty, Reserve, and National Guard Airmen who embody the Air Force's mission "To fly, fight, and win...airpower anytime, anywhere." Always innovating, the U.S. Air Force will continue to build on the success of our first 74 years as we accelerate change to meet the war-fighting demands of tomorrow.

We hope you enjoy this musical collaboration from The United States Air Force Band's Concert Band, Max Impact, Airmen of Note, Singing Sergeants and Air Force Strings, as they celebrate this special birthday with Bill Conti’s “Gonna Fly Now”!

Lyrics
Trying hard now
It's so hard now
Trying hard now

Feeling strong now
Won't be long now
Getting strong now

Gonna fly now
Flying high now
Gonna fly, fly, fly
