To me, the Flame is my favorite Cheap Trick song! 🤘😁
Me too
Yes, this and Surrender.
"Mighty Wings" for me
Mine also
@@davidbarker77 it always threw me off though... I love this song but it sounds nothing like anything else they have.
Yes, he really plays that 5-neck. Just saw them live in September and even at 70+ years old Rick strapped that thing on and played it. You can see it much better in the official video for their song She’s Tight. And yes, Robin Zander is an incredible singer and he still is at age 69, too. He still hits the high notes on this song live. He killed it on everything when I just saw them. VERY underrated rock vocalist.
Man, LUCKEEE! I fell in love with Cheap Trick (and Robin!) in the early 80's and never fell out of love. But also never managed to see them in concert.
I've seen Cheap Trick at least 6 times. They don't miss a beat, play a super long set, and most importantly, they still jam just like they used to. They perform as if the stage is their home. I don't know many other bands with their longevity and the high number of their fans young and old.
Yup, I've held that guitar before one of their shows I worked (I had a career in tour and venue security so I've met these guys several times as I worked their shows more times than I can count) and it weighs a freaking ton. But you're right, Rick still plays it live.
They are a great & underrated band....& saw them 3 times in the 80's!!🎼And Rick's known for having one of the coolest guitar collections around🎸!
Rick had most of his guitars custom made by Hamer
1980's power ballads will never go out of style.
100% Truth. So much more emotion than in anything done today.
This is a great power ballad, yes!
Robin Zander KILLED this vocal. It’s outstanding.
He sure did.
Absolutely nailed it. One of my five favorite 80's songs...
When I was a young man, I went through a breakup with a girl I deeply loved. This was literally the first song I heard while sitting in my car crying my eyes out and it ripped my heart out. I spent a while healing from losing my first love, but all these years later, the pain is gone. I’m happily married to a fantastic woman that God sent to me right when it was time. Years of happiness and 4 great children later, I can listen to this song with a smile on my face. If you’re dealing with a broken heart, hang in there, it will get better!!❤❤
Yup
Awesome comment.
Amen.
Vocalist Robin Zander is the man. His voice is so versatile.
"I want you to want me" should be next, guys!!!
Definitely
Agree
Yes!!
Yes, but the live version please
Yes, but be sure it is the Live at Budokan version!
One of rock's best voices - and band names - ever.
Anything you do by Cheap Trick should be the live version. That's where they shine.
For the most part, I’d agree. But there are a few exceptions. Hello There, Clock Strikes Ten & Come On Come On are definitely better off In Color, than from At Budokan, while I Want You to Want Me, their signature song, is miles better than the studio version. The other songs from Budokan are about as good as the original studio versions. I haven’t spent much time deciding which songs from the expanded versions off the Complete Budokan set are better live or studio. But those early studio albums from the beginning through at least Dream Police are phenomenal!
@@screwyootube1 Apparently, they weren't satisfied with Tom Werner's production on that second album, and re-recorded the whole album years later. Maybe someday we'll get to hear it.
Never react to live version first - you need to know the song to appreciate a live performance fully.
Robin Zander is of the best voices in Rock and Roll... EVER!!
This song is a tender ballad where the singer tells a girl he will always be there for her. It was not typical of Cheap Trick's sound, and was also their only hit not written or co-written by their guitarist Rick Nielsen. The song succeeded in exposing the band to a much larger audience.
This was Cheap Trick's only #1 hit, remaining at the top spot in the US for two weeks in the summer of 1988.
In this song, the flame represents the singer's love, which will always burn bright. Those following Cheap Trick's career spotted this song as an outlier, since they eschew metaphor in their songwriting. Note the difference between this song and their previous hit:
After the fire
After all the rain
I will be the flame
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
Supposedly Robin Zander hated this song when it was first brought to them, and he recorded it under protest, lol. He thought it didn't reflect the spirit of the band, and that it wouldn't go anywhere. And then it went to #1.
Don't forget their other hit song "Don't Be Cruel" wasn't written or co-written by their guitarist Rick Nielsen as well
This is the first song by Cheap Trick that I've ever heard, then a few more of their hits. "She's Tight" "Don't Be Cruel" "Ain't That A Shame" "If You Want My Love" "Surrender" "I Want You To Want Me" "Dream Police" "Voices" "Tonight It's You" "Passing Through" "Here's Looking At You" "Wherever Would I Be" "Gonna Raise Hell" "Mighty Wings" "Ghost Town" Enjoy! Btw, this is a perfect song to slow dance to.
YES, Tonight It's You and Ain't that a Shame
And if you want another ballad, Robin Zander and Ann Wilson did a song called Surrender to Me, from the movie Tequila Sunrise
They've done Surrender and If You Want My Love already, but I'd love to hear them react to any of these! :D
I was going to mention their cover of Don't Be Cruel. They did a fantastic job covering that.
Definitely yes to If You Want My Love!
So glad y’all got back to Cheap Trick! If you love their ballads, definitely recommend “Tonight It’s You” or “Voices” next
Yes! 2 of my fav CT songs right there! 💯
How I Met Your Mother used Voices in a very funny scene. I had forgotten about the song.
Both great suggestions.
I just saw cheap trick today, at 71yrs old he still hits every note. Robin Zander is amazing.
This song is set apart from all the rest of their stuff and came so much later. I lost my best friend/ex fiance to suicide and it just ripped a hole right through me. And just when I thought I was doing better, they played this on VH1 and I lost my mind all over again because every word just. All these years later, the song fills me with such warmth, and makes me feel connected to him as if he was sending me a little message of "I'm not gone, you just can't see me, but I'll always be here for you."
So very sorry, Maggie. 😥
I'm sorry, my heart seriously bleeds for you.
Damn... That hits the feels in a raw spot.
((HUGS))
He is with you and you will see him again after your life here. 100% guaranteed.
Definitely my favorite Cheap Trick. Gotta love 80s Power Ballads!
You REALLY need to check out their live version of Ain't that a shame!! You will be SHOOK!!
Live in Daytona 1988?
This might be the first time I agree with checking out the live version. I prefer when they review studio recordings, but Budokan is exceptional, across the board. ♥️
It might be fun to do a two-fer; listen to the original Fats Domino version, then the Cheap Trick Live at Budokan version.
@Maya Nightwolf that was the first album I ever bought for myself. Freaking awesome!
Love Bun E's drum intro!
Another beautiful ballad from the 80's love it. 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
@terra 🤘🤘🎸 🎸 😊
Just saw Cheap Trick last month! One of the best shows! They still sound so amazing. Rick hoists that 5 neck up and plays the dang thing with his teeth! 😬🎸🤟🔥💯
Where, we saw them at Tinley Park, Il
Saw them Sept 16 in Biloxi myself
Cool, 👍👊
@@jen_alanfromchicago53 Kansas City 🤟
The reason for multiple neck guitars is simple. Each neck is set to a different tuning, allowing the guitarist to cover a broader audio spectrum with only one instrument instead of switching out guitars as needed. Cheap Trick, especially this song, brings back so many great memories of my teens. Truly a great band!
Actually , the five neck guitar is his way of mocking the guitar hero shtick.
This is one of the best Cheap Trick songs
I swear🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Renegade from the 70s KICKS AASSSS
@@theodoreritola7641 that's a Styx song
@@revwillyg6450 👍. One of my favorite groups of the late 70's!!!! Saw them in 1978 in Pgh!
As an 80's kid, I can't overstate how big this was back in the day. This video was HUGE, and played over and over, and I loved it! I retroactively got into the previous hits by Cheap Trick, but this was the one that got me, and a lot of other people of my generation, into this band!
In the early 90's, when this song was getting a lot of airplay, I and my co-worker were sitting in my office at work. I was playing the radio and this song was playing. A teen girl that also worked in the building, ran into my office and said "I love this song, sooo much. Who's the group?" When I replied "Cheap Trick" she said "I'm going to buy all of their records" and ran out of the office. When she was gone, my co-worker asked "Don't you think that's unreasonable?" I answered "Not at all."
You mean the late 80s early nineties it was severely played out and not played as much as when it first came out
Sounds like me...lolol
power ballads fullfilled the radio in late eighties. Songs like Heaven from Warrant, home sweet home from Poison, High enough, when the children cry from White lion and many other. i recommend you any of these.
This tune was popular in 1988. By the early 90's there was some legal issue with the song, and it was being pulled from all the compilation CD's...
@@Deborahtunes Perhaps, but in 91/92 it was getting A LOT of airplay in Houston.
Such a great band. Been around almost 50 years (73) and they're still out there killing it
This song went to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in America in the Summer of 1988!!! Awesome memories of being a teen in the 1980s!!! Such a great power rock ballad!!
I was 12 in 1988 and I'd go back to that time in a heart beat I soooo miss the 80s the neon the crazy clothes and the more mis matched the better it was a time u could be pore and still look lk great but when I found out how much those band tshirts cost then I was shocked all the "headbangers" as we use to call them spent lk 35 bucks on their band tshirts then..way more than I spent my crazy prints and neon colors and biker shorts with a tiny tank wow fun times indeed lol
Oh yes....wouldn't give nothing for my teenage self in the 80s.....best time ever to be alive 🕊️💗
I had a group of friends when I was young. We made a pact that whenever we heard this song in the future, no matter what we were doing we would stop and just listen and think of the memories we all made together. I’m in my 50s and still do it to this day. Love this song!
Rock N Roll Hall of Famer's Cheap Trick... Went to their concert many years ago and they tossed copies of their album to the audience like a frisbee!!! Love that Robin Zander.
You know, I had my mind blown once sometime in the 90's I was driving by a bar in western Maryland somewhere once and saw on the sign, "Cheap Trick". I couldn't believe they weren't shown more love than that because they shouldn't have been playing that venue after being such a big band (at least in my opinion). I saw them up close and personal in a small club and they were awesome--much better than the venue would suggest.
Lighters in the air!! Wave them back and forth to the beat! ❤❤❤ My absolute favorite Rock Ballad! Robin’s vocals! Chills!! 🔥🔥🔥
Cheap Trick is such a good group and the lead singer is amazing.
Another of the great classic bands. This is probably my favorite from them.
The Flame is a favorite of mine. You also need to check out 'I Want You To Want Me' (Live at Budokan).
Honestly, my favorite Cheap Trick song
These are my home boys from Rockford IL. Watched them play at many bars and concerts around the area back then. Have met lead guitarist Rick Neilsen, was at eye dr in waiting room. Not being shy struck up a conversation with him about the concerts and bars I had watched them play back in the day. Was in 2010 I think. He remembered almost all of them and was super great guy. The lead singer Robin Zander, has a daughter Holland who plays in local band around here. She has her fathers incredible vocal range, herr band is The Sensations. Drummer Bun E Carlos still plays at a local bar about once a month here. Another great guy. Tom Petterson bass player, not sure where he is tho.
He does play the 5 neck guitar, Rick is fraking awesome, owns a casino here
Yeah. They used to play up in Madison, Wis, back in the early 1970s. I would stand there in awe. We all new they were going places.
Rick Neilson crews his buddy's drag car at Byron on occasion.
Doesn’t own a Casino, he’s an investor.
🤘❤🤘 Loved your reactions! Cheap Trick's lead singer, Robin Zander, did a duet with Heart's Ann Wilson called, Surrender To Me.🙂
Good One!
I remembered hearing it and just loving the hell out of it. Apart from fantastic vocals, I found out that it was written by Richard Marx.
@@TeXXicJA 🙂 Richard Marx? Oh, man. I did not know that. That's pretty damn cool.
@@MiguelLopez-is9te Yesss! He did it as a duet with Lara Fabian a while back.
Check it out when you get the chance
It is just as gorgeous.
Robin Zander = one of the greatest power pop signers in music history. What a voice.
Remember Hotel California has at least 4 guitars to play it. Everyone except Don Henley plays that song. While Don Henley plays drums. Saw Cheap Trick in concert years ago. Still one of my favorites
Robin Zander has an incredible voice. One of the best groups out of the USA - to this day.
This came out when me and my first boyfriend broke up. I thought I would never feel better. I played this over and over. Love this song! ❤️
Same thing happened to me with my gf except I refused to listen to this song. I already went through junior high with an REO Speedwagon broken heart. lol
It came out while I was dating my now ex wife in mid twenties. We made it 25 years.
I'm 58 and have been seeing them since I was 14. Rick Neilson is known for his guitars. He plays multiple guitars AT ONCE as well. He's the master.
"AINT THAT A SHAME" "I WANT YOU TO WANT ME". AND
THEY DO A GREAT COVER OF ELVIS' " DONT BE CRUEL"
They do a great Beatles cover with Magical Mystery Tour, too. This was the first concert I ever took my wife to (with BTO opening)
Yeeeeeeees!!!! I want you to want me!!!!!
My husband got me into this band way back in high school 1979 I’m not saying that’s when this song came out but I’m glad he turned me on to them ,brings me great memories 😀
Thank you!
I grew up listening to Cheap Trick (My Stepdad's favorite band). I will never forget when I lived out of state and my Mother was at their concert and called me during this song and sang these words to me "Wherever you go I'll be with you. Whatever you want I'll give it to you" my Mom passed in 2019 and the chorus of this song was on her memorial card.
My Mom will always be my flame.....
The live version of this song with Robin Zander's vocals will bring you chills. I also like Ghost Town which is a slower song.
Everyone should own a greatest hits compilation from Cheap Trick. They are a great vibe!
Robin Zander is definitely a powerhouse voice.
It doesn't get more Power Ballad than THIS Power Ballad!
My all-time favorite Cheap Trick song, and one of my favorite songs of all time.
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT ❤❤🔥 Will forever love💝💗
This song is actually SOOOO good!! 😍🤩🥰
J & Amber, you'll love their "I Want You to Want Me" and "California Man"!!!
edit- Robin Zander on lead vocals.
Robin Zander is one of rock's best vocalists, ever
Robin Zander is the singer, what a voice. Cheap Trick are amazing, been a fan ever since hearing "at budokan" in 1979. The Flame is great, CT have an amazing catalogue of songs.
Great album! All great songs
Even if you don't read to Heaven Tonight, you owe it to yourself to listen to it. Even the band members say it is the best song Rick wrote.
BUN E. CARLOS THE DRUMMER IN CHEAP TRICK IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE BEST DRUMMERS IN ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!!!!!!
Robin Zander is the most underrated singer in rock & roll history!
ZZ Top was technically the first tour I ever saw but Cheap Trick opened for them so they are the first major rock band I've ever seen. I saw them again years later at a little band shell near the river. Both times they were fantastic. A big part of my high school soundtrack.
Robin has one of the greatest voices in rock. Check it out LIVE!
I love this song. Gives me chills. Such memories!❤
summer of 88
@@bb-gc2tx yes!
His voice reaches up so clear and high that it breaks my heart. Thanks for sharing this
The singer is Robin Zander, Drummer is Bun E Carlos
Robin's vocals and Bun E's percussion are both beautiful....
You guys actually came across one of their songs in Top Gun called "Mighty Wings". It's played at the end credits and an instrumental version during the dogfight training between Maverick & Jester.
Yes!!!!! Cheap Trick is one of my favorite bands from the 80's. They are awesome, i saw them once in a small club in the 90s and they put on a great show!
Thank you for doing a reaction for this song. I absolutely love this song. This is one of those songs that take me back to one specific time in my life and anytime I hear it, I remember back to those days. Pure nostalgia.
First band I saw live in 1979.
They had me from “Surrender”.
Left a lasting impression, I’m a huge fan.
Cheap Trick was one of the most fun concerts I have ever seen. The opening act was Molly Hatchet. It had to be 83 or 84.
The moment it clicked when you both realized how good of a singer Robin is, is priceless!!!!!
Love Cheap Trick, and " The Flame" is a great song!
This is my all time favorite Cheap Trick song💜 From my understanding they almost passed up doing this song and I'm so thankful they decided to do it. Robin's voice and the lyrics are so beautiful 💜
This song is incredibly poignant. Underrated to say the least
Being #1 is not "underrated".
Underrated? You must have been in a coma when this song was released in 1988! Or maybe not born yet?
@@michaelparsons5299 I was 4/5 and thankfully not in a coma. Comas suck and are unpleasant to say the least. When I think cheap trick, this isn’t the song that would initially come to mind.
@@MarkCucchiara underrated in terms of it not being in the top ten 80s ballads. Underrated in regards to not being a love song that is widely regarded as one of the best of its era.
“Being number 1” doesn’t equate to lifelong prestige, especially in the music industry. How many “number 1” songs are just catchy and overrated and fade away into the abyss?
Using quotation marks to try and be right by attempting to define something that is subjective is a fun game.
The five neck guitar is fully functional. And Each neck has their own sounds. From classic rock sounds to synthesizer sounds. Rick calls it the hammer 5
This is my absolute favorite song by Cheap Trick!!! Love it!
Cheap Trick is one of the greatest bands ever, imho.
Underrated is an understatement.
Saw them in concert back in the early 80s. Loved them.
RENENAGDE From the 70s Rocks .. Please give it a reaction Rob Squad . Love them 70s Amber
This is how I came to know cheap trick! Classic 80s Rock Ballad 🤘😜
this is one of my favorite bands and getting to see them in concert was a dream come true!
Rick Nielsen is a MAESTRO re guitar. He's an OFFICIANDO when it comes to guitars, and yeah, every one on the MULTI-neck works!. His collection is MASSIVE!
Cheap Trick is- Lead Singer- Robin Zander, Lead Guitar- Rick Neilson, Bass Guitar- Tom Peterson, Drums- Bun E. Carlos. (now no longer the drummer).
Great tune and the most mellow they ever did. Surrender and I Want You to Want Me are their most popular and best!
Like I said before, love this band and there is a story behind a older woman and this band and growing up in the late 1970's. Wow it was crazy fun.
Most favorite song of theirs! Saw them at the Brat Stop!
They rocked it!!!!😎😍
He didn't have a sax on his guitar, the guitar was shaped like a sax. Rick Nielsen owns hundreds of guitars and has designed some of the crazy looking ones. He does play all five necks during his guitar solo. There is a video of their song Surrender, I forget if you've done that one, where he plays four out of the five. One is a twelve string and one is fretless and one sounds like a Fender and another sounds like a Gibson. I guess the last sounds like a Hammer which is what the whole guitar is made by.
Cheap Trick continue to make great music. I would suggest Dream Police, Voices, She's Tight, If You Want My Love, Just Got Back next. Ah never mind, there are too many to choose from :)
For real! There are just too many! Start at “A” and work through alphabetically 🤣
Jay n Amber would you react to 70s Styx Babe and Lady, Styx was huge in the 70s
40 years and still gives me chills up my spine when I hear this song. So many memories going through my mind good and bad from my past. Can't find another song that I have ever heard that does that. It's powerful and it's deep and until you've lived you just can't connect with it. 😢❤️🎸🙂👍
Boy does this song bring back memories. Seeing Cheap Trick live in concert in Cedar Rapids, Iowa around 1985 was one of my first concerts. Guys were making out with their girl friends during this song, lighters in the air (not cel phones). I wish I could live those times all over again. There was so much great music back then.
I lived in Cedar Rapids around that time, lol! Wasn't at this concert, unfortunately.
My favorite Cheap Trick song/ Video is If You Want My Love. It has an old school Beatles vibe. I like the goofy guy with the baseball cap.
The first time I heard this song was on MTV at a friend's house in 1988. It became a #1 hit. My older sister was on her honeymoon. When they got back, I mentioned the song. She said they both heard it on their honeymoon & also loved it. 🙂
Rick Neilsen from the very beginning is a SERIOUS guitar collector!! From the rare expensive classics to the fun and silly ones he has custom build. In this video you can see some of them in the background. Besides all this, he is a GREAT guitarist. Bun E. Carlos is a great drummer into the old school drums. When other drummers of the day had massive drum kits, he kept it very simple. Always wearing a shirt and tie...ALWAYS smoking. FUN FACT: If you look closely, bassist Tom Petersson is playing a TWELVE string bass! Made by Hamer Guitars...he is one of only TWO bassist I know that use it...the other is Dug Pinnick of King's X.
Cheap trick is a great band and their singer is above par The Flame is a very good song thanks for this, if you ever get a chance to check out their concert do it, you made me smile thank you 🎙✌️😎southside OG
This is my most favorite Cheap Trick song... It brings back lots of memories from high school stomps (dances)!
Biggest hit they ever had from the summer of 1988.
Married to my husband for over 30 years this is our song and was played during our first dance in 1990. Never get tired of hearing it.
I saw them live. A great band to see live.
Very apropos of Jay wearing a White Sox cap, since Cheap Trick hail from Illinois.
This song showed Cheap Trick could rock a power ballad as well as anyone else in modern rock; Robin Zander's vocals absolutely soar on this.
Robin Zander is so underrated as a vocalist, he still brings it today.
Cheap Trick's 'I Want You to Want Me' live at Budokan is definitely worth a listen!
According to my dad, in their hayday, Cheap Trick was like The Beatles for Japan.
Man I love this song, so much. Thank you for doing it!
Rick Nielson, the lead guitar player, had a huge collection, and constantly changed during concerts. I saw them 3 times in the 1980's, and they are still one of my favorite bands. Please check out "Surrender"
Love you guys, love this channel. Cheap Trick was my 1st concert 40+ years ago. It’s so nice to see the music I grew up with appreciated. 😁
One of MY FAVORITE rock ballads! You guys NAILED the reaction...it speaks differently to everyone...its just a mark of a great song! Our song SB...for me anyway...IF ONLY
One of the best live bands of their generation.
Fun fact: Kid Rock inducted them into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
That's disappointing to learn, they should have had a real musician induct them
I didn't even know that
Saw Kid Rock live! Was no fan until then!
Robin Zander's voice is showcased by this song. Rick Neilson plays all the guitar necks on his guitar. My brother was a luthier for Hamer guitars and worked on some of Rick's guitars. He is a phenomenal guitarist. The defining line in the song is "You were my first, you'll be my last." He means loves.
