Songs that feel like Cobra Kai (2018)
A nostalgic, punchy underdog story of middle-aged regret, bruised pride and second chances, where old rivalries and surrogate fathers push people toward redemption with plenty of humour and heart.
- Cult of Personality by Living Colour: Defiant, hard-hitting riffs that suit a dojo full of swagger and rivalry.
- Eye of the Tiger by Survivor: The definitive underdog training anthem, which is exactly Cobra Kai's comeback spirit.
- Panama by Van Halen: Swaggering, sun-soaked California hard rock with Johnny Lawrence energy.
- Round and Round by Ratt: Sleazy LA hair metal for a washed-up 80s fighter who refuses to quit.
- Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) by Journey: Big-hearted arena rock about rivals and friends pulled apart.
- Hungry Like the Wolf by Duran Duran: Glossy 80s drive and hunger that suits the show's retro-cool montages.
- Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins: Pure 80s adrenaline for high-stakes training and competition.
- Heaven Is A Place On Earth by Belinda Carlisle: Bright, sentimental 80s California pop with the show's warm nostalgic side.
- Fight For Your Right by Beastie Boys: Rowdy, cheeky rebellion for the show's teenage and middle-aged troublemakers alike.
