Gladiators TV Theme Tune - Official Music Video

The official music video for the theme tune to Gladiators on ITV (1992-2000).
Released: 7th November 1992.
Written by Muff Murfin.
Performed by Storm & Phil Bates.
Lyrics:
Do you feel the power of the Gladiators? Can you face the challenge of the champions?
Do you have the courage of a hero? Do you have the will and the skill?
Do you have the speed, the strength, the heart to be a winner? It's not for beginners.
Deep down in your soul. Are you a Gladiator?
Gotta move like a streetwise fighter. Gotta face the fire of the tiger.
Gotta give your all to win. Ready or not, let the challenge begin.
Can you match the strength of the Gladiators? Do you have the fire within you?
Do you have the heart of a lion? Do you have the power in your soul?
Now it's time to race, it's face-to-face, get on the track now.
There's no turning back now. Your future's on the line. Are you a Gladiator?
Gotta move with lightning speed. Feel the strength for what you need.
Gotta take it on the chin. Gotta love it, love to fight and win.
Do you feel the power of the Gladiators? Can you face the challenge of the champions?
Show the stuff you're made of. Can you seal the fate of the Gladiators?
Can you challenge the Gladiators? Will you take on the Gladiators? Will you be the new champion?
The Gladiators!

I’m all in for this! The original show was a staple of our Saturday nights when I was a kid, had the pleasure of meeting Panther and Wolf too, ahh the memories! 😁

[@andrewjames9996]

I did meet Wolf at a Tesco opening.

Sing and play this when I use my LAMINATOR!

[@Xifihas]

The two most memorable parts of this show to me were this theme and the referee, John Anderson. "Contenders, RRRRRRREADY!!!! Gladiators, RRRRRRREADY!!!! THREE! TWO! ONE! *FWEEEEE*"

[@cutemimi25]

R.I.P. John Anderson, he died yesterday 😢.

[@tommylambert]

I honestly never knew there was an actual music video with Phil Bates in it haha! Brilliant!

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

Even in that tiny preview image for this video, my heart still swells in response to Jet's beauty.

[@PengPengPengPengPengPeng]

The awkward moments as a kid when you're watching Gladiators with your parents and Jet is getting you excited

[@starkers1997]

The BBC is bringing it back this year!

[@JASpiring]

And with a version of this theme too. It's actually been extended slightly from the ITV opening titles version, and that gives away that it s actually a new recording as that part is different to this one's equivalent instrumental segment.

[@truth901]

They did and the new reboot is awesome and EXCELLENT! ❤❤😊

This track man is the ultimate workout 🏋️‍♀️ music , My adrenaline is pumping right through my body . I wanna take Life on now

[@bensmithkent22]

Back when the gym was only in the sports centre attacthwd to the local sports centre in a Mr Brittas style place. Not 24 hours in every retail park and high street. That makes these more elite than the ones of today where almost everybody looks that way.

[@WNShadow814]

Oh jet and lightning. I miss this show

🖥 BBC Gladiators brang me here 2024 However, I used to watch this Back in the 1990s on ITV/LWT 📺 Come on Lets SING ALONG now 😎

[@3275Dan]

Loved this show as a kid watching it every Saturday night. Actually going back on utube now and watching all the series. All the gladiators are brilliant, but my favorite female gladiator is definitely Lightning, insanely gorgeous and a great gladiator, especially at Hang Tough. She was also the only female gladiator to star in Series 1 all the way to the end of the series :)

[@jonparton5082]

The ultimate slice of 90s cheese......ahhh takes me back

[@Johnnyafc]

Great to see Love Joy and Mike Smash’s love child singing it 🎸

I love it😊❤

[@paulwilliams2593]

Jet was my favourite

[@bensmithkent22]

Jet from gladiators to host a millenium barn dance at yeovil aerodrome.

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

3:33 I always wondered what Jet said at the end there, because with how her mouth moved, it looked like she said something else after "Gladiators!!!!!"

[@zoomgallygally]

Looks like yours to me but that wouldn't make sense

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

@@zoomgallygally Sometimes I've wondered if she said "show", but maybe she just said "woooooooo"???? After all, none of the other Gladiators were saying anything when she said that!!!! :O

[@aaronjameslockwood2437]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Someday, I'm thinking about signing this in Japanese for Japanese people by giving something to them from a British perspective. 🇯🇵🇬🇧

[@LJinx3]

The Japanese would love this!

Not being a troll, it’s my opinion. They are dreadful. Go back and watch the original pair… these two are clowns in comparison. BBC just wanted a headline name… they chose the wrong pair. They won’t remain… mark my words.

Probably a controversial comment here but I do actually prefer the 2024 version.

[@raynavillus4927]

Wolf was me favourite and while the song is awesome, the vocalist looks as stiff as a board and less interested in this show!

[@viperhalberd]

Wow, I've been watching the new series and it's just so toned down compared to the original. There's like 8 events repeated over and over. The "wall" is just a flat surface with screwed-in hand holds, the pugil sticks in Duel are 95% foam and no stick which means they look like they're having a pillow fight, and Gauntlet is just a joke because the Gladiators can't do shit without getting disqualified. The new series is a woke joke.

[@stuartalder4505]

Rest in peace John Anderson

[@JeffCooper10538]

The original and best version of this theme tune featuring a terrific singer and a ‘bloody nice bloke’ too. 👍👍🎶👏👏😊

I live in the USA. I first got exposed to Gladiators UK through the International competitions. Then, thanks to KZbin, started watching the UK Glads. Favorite UK Glads were Wolf, Warrior, Jet, Shadow, and ‘There’s only one. SARACEN!!’ Finally, To John Anderson, Thanks for the memories. God bless.
