I loved the cleavage shot at the end of the video too...all in all, not a bad song at all. Very enjoyable IMHO.

I feel bad for him at this point. I mean I guess he is an artist and he is still trying to make money from it... but man this was bad. SEAAAAAAAARINGLY bland guitars

why does this site keep updating us with crap about stan bush?? his closest thing to being a "hit", The Touch, is a crappy song. Stan Bush is completely irrelevant at this point

I really wanted to like the song, and maybe I would have if I'd only heard it, but that video was seriously like a bad joke from Tim&Eric. I thought Stan had always done all right for himself by maintaining a cult following separate from Transfandom, but this just made me feel kinda' sorry for him.

It also makes me wonder what ol' Vince is up to these days...

Haha, the song sucks, like most of the other cheesy stuff hes done, never been a fan. Every other song from the movie though, Instruments of Destruction, Hunger, all killer. This whole video is just a huge hilarity to me... I definitely wasn't approaching this expecting to be into it in any serious way, haha. But hey, the video has Transformers gameplay (even though really poopy haha), some fine looking chicks, and HILARIOUS video editing. I love it as sheer retardedness. Kinda like Tim&eric, which rules.

what a way to promote Transformers merchandise.

I like the song, his last album had a few good songs on it as well. Nice to see he's still got that 80's rock thing going.

Video is not great, but I don't think he has a budget for these kind of things anyway so it's acceptable.

Exactly. I also am impressed by the use of chord changes. SO few bands even know what chord changes are anymore. There is a lot going on in the song but it blends well. And yes, the video is horrible but I still like the blonde...

The song does have a few nice changes in it. Better then most of his later work.

Does anyone know who the blond actress is?

Who knows...but for some reason I suddenly can relate to Wheelie humping Mikaela's leg in ROTF...

...it's probably going to end up being Stan's daughter or something...then I might feel slightly guilty...but only slightly...

That video wasn't too great, so I turned my screen off to focus on the music, and it was a pretty great song. I want to add it to my work playlist

by **MysteriousDewd** » Tue Feb 08, 2011 3:05 pm

I don't know why people are hatin on Stan Bush, hes a really good artist. A bit cheezy I agree he can be sometimes but overall hes not bad.

Cheesy 80's power ballads belong in the 80's.

Srsly.

What's with the Halcyon-class Cruisers from Halo?
Seriously, WTF?

Before listening to this I thought it was going to be pathetic. I have to say i don't mind it and it would be much better if Stan Bush just took himself out of the video or at least didn't appear until near the end or something. He just looks foolish. I wouldn't mind if they put it in the movie as a song while the credits were playing as a tribute to him. I also wouldn't be surprised if Bay has a restraining order against him from him constantly showing up at his doorstep with new song ideas for the movies.
