"Fight the Good Fight" is one of the two singles that carried Allied Forces, the 1981 fifth album from Canadian hard rockers Triumph, and it's a fist-in-the-air title if ever there was one. It made it to 18 on the US Mainstream Rock chart, with "Magic Power" going to 8. Rik Emmett, Mike Levine and Gil Moore wrote it together, and the band produced it themselves, with Rick Capreol and Ed Stone engineering and Mike Jones recording.

Allied Forces climbed to 23 on the Billboard pop albums chart and has come to be seen as the band's signature record, one that kept coming back on CD: on MCA in 1985, then twice more on the band's own labels.
