"I'm Alive" is a song by the Electric Light Orchestra, released as a single in May 1980. It is featured in a sequence near the beginning of the feature film "Xanadu". The song also appears on the soundtrack album "Xanadu".
In the film the song is heard as the Muses emerge from a graffiti-like portrait; Olivia Newton John, playing Kira (Terpsichore), emerges last. The film's version of the song contains a fairly lengthy instrumental introduction, a small segment of which is used for the album version.
The song has been recently updated in the version of "Xanadu" on Broadway.
Included in the song's closing coda is Morse code which spells out "ELO."
