Tough Enough

Fallone KouameNov 16, 2022

can anyone help me find the song, that was sung at the end of the show, Don't make me dream alone, I've looked on the internet and cant find any song by that name,, i am looking for the lyrics,, but have been unable to find them, as far as the movie goes i really liked it, but then again i am a big rocky fan, i love boxing and loved the singing in the show. i have also looked for the song on lime wire and still nothing, its almost like it really don't exist. but it does. I want to thank every one for letting me make this post i know I'm not good at it, but its really nice to be able to tell others how u do or don't like a film, and to be able to ask questions about it.

The song I'm attempting to find the lyric's maybe sheet music to in tab is the one he is singing to his kids. I know kind of silly little ditty but i would love to learn and sing it to my kids any help would be highly appreciated. By the way this movie rocked i remember when it came out watching it and loving it as a kid and watched it several times since and just keeps getting funnier. thanks in advanced for any help.My favorite parts in the movie where all the fight scenes the characters where outrageously funny. The movie isn't for everyone how ever most southern folk should enjoy it thoroughly if they like this type of comedy with some odd little twists and turns its not all funny just bits and peaces mixed with some other stuff thrown in.

Dennis Quaid did make the movie. The fight scenes were good, a few a little unbelievable, but overall was enjoyable. The supporting cast was also very good. It was somewhat of a fairy tale script. Keep this in mind when watching it if you haven't seen it yet. The direction lacked some punch, the script a little weak, but I still enjoyed seeing it, again and again.

During the last fight scene in the movie, the ringside time keeper Tony Fallon played by actor Bruce Mcgill has the entire front of his powder blue suit jacket and white shirt sprayed with blood from the fight. Only a minute later after the fight is over the blood has vanished.

Amazingly enough, he wins it, and is picked to go onto the national finals. He's torn between his first love, music, and the glitz, glamor and money of the "Tough Man" world

This is a good buddy-flick with Stan Shaw and Dennis Quaid. It kind of reminds me of Rocky III. The movie seems meaningless but it has some hilarious moments. Check out Pam Grier who plays Stan Shaw's wife. She's hot!

A guy who fights for the money but dreams of being a singer...sounds a lot like a script that had Elvis' fingerprints on it. Dennis Quaid is perfectly cast in this small, non-offensive drama, as a guy with a dream, a mean streak and a guitar who uses his status as a fighter to get a recording contract. He is helped by Stan Shaw and Pam Grier and his wife and makes it to Detroit for the National Tough Man competition. Nice to see Stan Shaw play a character who isn't barefoot and in overalls - he patented the backwards kid in the back woods in such movies as "The Great Santini" and "Fried Green Tomatoes." Movie is a little dated and there's not a whole lot that is memorable, but on the other hand its not a waste of time either.
