Thank you, Cheap Trick, for channeling your special brand of vitality to this tune! This one's going to be on my mind all night.

It sucks,cause the first few seconds sounded promising, but then the rest of the beat... And the lyrics.... Horrible. Just Horrible. I still think Meat bee had the best cover of Transformers.

Not everyone can be Van Halen.

Whats that supposed to mean?

Meat Bee?

Yes. Meatbee. I found them a couple years ago when i did a search on iTunes for the Score for the Transformers Movie. Very well done. 10 times better than this "Cheap" new cover.

*cough**cough* A bit easier on the comments.

But both of these versions make me want to listen to the new, rap version of the Touch... Even it is better than these.

OMFG! That royally sucks ass! Leave it to Michael Bay to musically screw up the Transformers as he has done visually. I guess if you are going to screw something up, better go for broke. Don't be half-assed about it.

Personally, I would love to hear a version from the little known Transformers-homage band known as Shockwave. I hate to think what Bay will throw at us for Transformers 3- Britney Spears? Oh, I know, he can get the Backstreet Boys back together for a version of the song!

"Transformers are back!" (a play off that one Backstreet Boys song "Larger than Life")

Cheap Trick and Transformers, a winning combination!
Though count me in on the group that wants to see Iron Maiden do some TF stuff... That would be Beyond Good, Beyond Evil, Beyond the most badass thing you've ever imagined!

Nice comments. If this is the kind of fan base "Cheap Trick" has,then this new remake won't be doing the TF franchise any good.

Anyways, i stand behind my original comment. I fell nearly every other adaption we've had in the past from the original 86' movie theme, to Mute Math is better than this "Cheap" knock off.

Personally, I loved Black Lab's cover, but being a fan of Cheap Trick, I'll be open to it.

5150 is the turning point album for Van Halen when they took a dramatic turn for the worse and became Van Hagar.
