King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp and his wife, the actress and singer Toyah Willcox, have unveiled the latest entry in their “Sunday Lunch” series of cover videos that have captured the Internet’s attention in recent months.

The duo’s latest video finds them covering Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger,” along with the masked guitarist, Sidney Jake, who has become a fixture in these videos lately. Willcox dons boxing gloves for the shoot, a reference to the song’s prominence in Rocky III.
