Are you talking about that shitty song?

Isn’t it in a Geico commercial or something like that.

This song has been used in the TV shows Arrested Development, Chuck, Glee and Gotham. Movies include Shiner (2000) The Kid & I (2005) and Pitch Perfect (2012). It also gets a mention in a 2015 episode of the animated show Gravity Falls, when a character says, "It's the final countdown! Just like they always sung about!"

Th only songs I remember from Rocky are Eye of the Tiger and Living in America.
Also the Finak countdown not being featured in any movie can’t be accurate. I don’t remember it in Rocky though

The movie was MUCH better than the song.

I'm perplexed OP thought The Final Countdown was a Rocky song.

Never understood why it is called that.
I have never known anyone who believed that Mandela died in prison.
His release from Prison was one of the huge global events of the 20th century covered by all media.
And then of course his election as President was even bigger.
It should be called the Monopoly Man effect. Query 10 people and 8/10 will say yes when asked if the Monopoly Man has a monocle.

the opening riff is nice...but the singing in it is awful.

Can I say this about Rocky IV and montages?
The No Easy Way Out montage has scenes from the Rocky 3 beach training montage. So you're getting an Inception style montage within a montage.
Second, the Hearts on Fire training montage is right after another training montage. There's like a 45 second break for dialogue between Rocky and Adrian, or it would be literally back to back training montages with no break.
