Sweet Victory

Sweet Victory

David Glen Eisley

This song is a rock ballad created in 1988 and performed by David Glen Eisley. In 2001, the song and David received massive popularity as it featured at the end of an episode from the animated show Spongebob Squarepants named “Band Geeks.”

Although the meaning is unclear and David could have been making metaphors and references at certain points, it seems to basically tell a tale of prevalence and fighting for victory; winning is the central goal of the song. This, accompanied by the inspiring guitar solos and powerful drum beat make for an invigorating song. It teaches its listeners to not give up, but to keep going in life, even though it can get tough at times.
