Music video by Cheap Trick performing I Want You To Want Me (Stereo). (C) 1979 SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT INC.
My cousin and I were going to see them at a fair, on the way it started to rain VERY hard. We decided to go anyway, showed up and there were like 20 people there, they played the concert for us. Best private show of all time, they were taking request.
That’s a class act. Good for them. Great for you!
Y
You lucky bastard!!! I went to see Blue Oyster Cult in 1988 at the Pismo Beach theater..2 shows 2 hours each. I had a ticket for the first show...but a certain band member was 2 hours late...that turned into 4 hours late...to much cocaine!! But they played 4 hours...the people that waited from the first show..stayed to the second...then the people from the second left so it was just us die hards..I couldn't hear for 3 weeks!!! Greatest show besides my one Rush concert I went to.
Keep rocking brother.
What year was that?
Reminds me of my High School days, the 70's and 80's were the best time of my life until 1988 I joined the United States Marines and found myself in the middle east in a war called Desert Storm, did four tours in sixteen years, now I'm disabled and I've got PTSD it's ok because love my country and I'd do it all over again GSGT Bray USMC first Marine Recon Amphibious Asalt Unit Semper Fi 🇺🇸
Thank you for your service, I have a cousin who was there too, I understand it was hot, he’s a lineman for the power company now,,,hope you are alright 😊
This time was amazing!
😢💘💝
This song was about luv, not killing or getting killed.
I wished You never have go to war ever again.
Stop praising the country that has totally no respect for You or anyone else who served.
I hope you'll help fight the pain of all those who have lost someone they loved.
Because l love you too.
Thank you for your service!!
Just saw them at a local casino a few nights ago. Great concert! Same strong voice, same great music, even in their 70s. They have not lost their edge. One of the most underrated bands ever.
They're still playing ? I'd probably sell a kidney to see them
I’m seeing them in a few months, they’re opening for Rod Stewart. I can’t wait!!!
Oh, wow, cool! Was gonna say they sound pretty wonderful for being live, bet it was a great concert.
Couer'd Alene?
I think Budokan was the best live concert EVER... the studio version of this song is very tame - but this hard rocking version is legendary! This is the version I always heard on the radio, as a kid, and it made me a life-long fan❤
One of the best live performances of all time
Their Budokan performance is freaking legendary.
Sacred Atheist think it’s a mashup of clips. audio is though
Sacred Atheist or, that might be the surrender video i’m thinking of
iconic enough for Waynes World! 😁😅
The thing most people didn't know was that cheap trick weren't that big in the states but were huge in japan until this performance then they blew up
Yup. Man, the Cheap Trick/KISS tour in the 70's was insane energy. Budokan would have been a place to be to see that instead of Canada, but as concerts go, even Edmonton was an electric fire of a place to be.
"And this next song... is called...
I want YOU... to want ME"
Fucking special ❤️
So they say
This was my PARENTS song before death arrived........years of sadness........until I picked up a Fender Stratocaster......!! I play music for all
Yes it is
def would want Robin Zander
I Want You To Want Me. I'm a one man band on youtube.
Imagine being in a band and nobody in your home country has ever heard of you until you made a live album in another country...
I am 33 years old, from Germany and I listen to Rock Radio only. I NEVER heard the studio version of this song ever, the Budokan version is the "standard" of this song. Love it so much.
studio version is waaaay slower.......
@@williampalmer6994And kinda bubble gum'ish ..still Rocks
I am german too, 60 years old now, and I can tell you, that you have a very good taste. Glückwunsch für deinen guten Musikgeschmack!👍
もう何百回も聴いたけれど 今でも当時の熱い気持ちが込み上げる。
好きで好きで…本当に大好きでたまらなかったなぁ…。
ポスターとこのLPは 宝物✨💕
💕🥰
So you understand the lyrics! 🤣
Ceap Trickも本国より先に日本で人気が出たんですよね。来日中に、ベースの彼が、一番と書かれた青いTシャツを着てたのを覚えてます
そう、彼らはそうでした！ 『チープ・トリック』がアメリカではそれほど成功しなかったのに、日本では非常に良い成績を収めたというのはおかしいと思います。

The Japanese media called them the "American Beatles". Even though their 1st 3 albums weren't big in the U.S. in Japan all 3 went gold and when they did this concert, it was like Beatlemania. After this concert, the world went nuts over Cheap Trick. Cheap Trick at Budokan was so popular, the record label had to make more albums of it to meet the demand. One of the legendary performances by a legendary band.
I remember how my sister and I had to put our names down on a list at the local Record Bar to get a copy of this great album because it was flying off the shelves so fast. Dubbed it onto a couple of TDK cassettes and wore them out pretty fast!
Thanks for the history of it all. This is so crazy I'm just now learning this. I have been jamming to them for years.
They always reminded me more of The WHo. Pretty boy blond lead singer, unattractive but very flamboyant lead guitarist, who wasn't really a great guitar player but put on one hell of a show.
Probably, no certainly, on balance all factors taken into account my favorite band.
Some of us were Enjoying them before Budokan.
Growing up to this band i want you to want me. Cheap trick was one of my favorite bands.
Im 62, always loved Cheap Trick !!!
Love the way Robin enunciated the title of the song and uses his hands to emphasize it...one of the best concerts captured on film...that one night they ruled the world
Agreed!
+Rigo es Amor When Budokan came out we were all in awe. It sounded like Beatlemania. One thing I was glad I lived to see.
Meh...nobody comes remotely close to Queen Live at Wembley.
Meh.... Rubbish...
and he knew it was being recorded for a live album-- but yes it's one of the best live rock albums ever
This song will always have a special memory in my childhood. I was an 8th grader, we were at middle school trip to a local amusement park, 1979ish, Dorney Park, Allentown Pa. My group of guy friends were in line at a new ride called the Sea Dragon. It is the rocking/swinging "boat" ride that is often called the Pirate Ship. Anyway, it was a brand new ride with a lot of interest, a very long line. The "kids" who were running the ride had these massive dual 15" sub cabinets, maybe 6 of them up on the platform. They were pumping Cheap Trick I Want You. They keep blasting this song over and over again. They had it on repeat. It was the first time I heard this song, but it was the type of song you hear, and you immediately fall in love with. At this age music like this, with the guitars and drums, would give you chills down your back, I mean you were really feeling it. I don't know......like you felt immortal, you were young and had like a self-awareness moment, where you knew everything was fine, easy, stress free, abundant opportunities. There were also some girls in our group which added to the excitement and butterflies. It was 30 minutes of time that you don't forget. Thank you Cheap Trick.
Was little dude and loved this song. Mom told me I would just wiggle and then dance around to this song. Her one friend would come over and would garble the song to her. I still get so happy hear this song play.
This live version just show's how good they are!
I can testify to that. They absolutely KILL IT LIVE always have always will. Totally amazing group of rock musicians ❤. Closest I've seen to their talent live is maybe Aerosmith ❤💖☠️
I felt that this song was ahead of its time. I don't recall any other rock bands during that time having this particular rock style.
The Cars, Heart, Supertramp, and lots of others were similar. They pioneered a lot of the sounds of the 90s and onward IMO
Maybe, Sweet. Fox on the run and Little Willie.
I’ve always thought Dyer Maker by Led Zeppelin was ahead of its time too.
😁
Big Star
Cheap Trick at Budokan was a monster album. I miss the late 70's and early 80's. good times great jams.
70s for me and LATE 60s
Word.
This version is so damn good that I can honestly say that I have never heard the studio version. Nobody plays it. Ever. It's always this version.
There's very few bands that are better live , and Cheap Tricks 1 of em
This band is more than this hit song. They really made masterpiece albums through late 70s.
Very Happy 73rd Birthday Richard Alan Nielsen December 22, 1948. Elmhurst, IL. Thank you for all the life long favorite rock songs with Cheap Trick. Your guitars are memorable too.
Elmhurst ha..I know all about it
@@rockyford3Grew up near Hinsdale.
Who else just loves Rick Neilsen's on stage antics? He is just hilarious, and a great guitarist. Love watching him.
i wore out the 8 track when i was a teenanger.....they are one of the best rock bands ever..
The crowd was awesome. Made a great song even better. Kudos to the lively audience at Budokan! 😀
It’s crazy to think how this is the definitive version that everyone hears of this song when the album version no one even thinks of.
One of the greatest live albums ever made
I saw them in high School in 1979. Love them.
#DEMOCRACY
Back in the day I got records through the mail from Columbia House. Sometimes if I didn't mail the opt out form back I got an album sent automatically. I remember getting Cheap Trick Live at the Budokan this way. I thought what the hell is this I never heard of them, but rather than going through the hassle of returning it I put it on the turn-table fully expecting to be disapointed. I think it was a week later I listened to side two, I was so blown away by side one I just kept playing it.
olderthandadirt just wondering do you still have that vinyl?
What a great memory! Sounds like something I would have done. I too, belonged to Columbia House. It was a staple of the late 70s...
Ahhh, the days of Columbia House!! Soooooo many memories! 😍😍😍 I came to hear this because this is my best friends first Birthday above. I wish she were here. Shed have gotten a good laugh thinking back to our Columbia House days.
Freaking awesome! Thanks for sharing :)
Record clubs got a bad rep because of idiots not returning the card.
But, man, you could really load up on music cheaply.
This thread is a great example of vehemently different people coming together over universal beauty.
Probably on of the top 10 greatest rock songs of all time.
🎂Happy 70th birthday, Robin🎉 The song reminds me of my younger days. Your Live at Budokan is very, very special to us.
Love and Thanks from 🇯🇵Japan.
So catchy. It will be in your head all day after listening once.
I hope so...
Or forever.
Is that a Jojo reference?
who? thanks for thinking im clever but i have no idea what you are talking about. LOL@@BWITHYURI
Exactly why i’m here 😅 I love it!
Live at Budokan. The best album of 1979! Awesome. 41 ****ing years and it still rocks just like it did in the summer of '79!
still have mine in kamikaze yellow
Oh 79. To be 21 again and just enjoying life!
Um I beg to differ I'll go with Highway to Hell 🙂
@@karenfortson6942 I agree with ya Karen that AC DC had great a great sound and content but my big debate was between Cheap Trick and VH2: Van Halen was the bomb back in the day. I guess that those 3 bands are the holy trifecta of '79 but to each his own on who is numero uno! I respect your disagreement though, AC DC made an enormous impression in '79 as well!
@J. Holter You Gotta another thing coming! was awesome but I think "British Steel" was '80 or '81. Great album though bro, thanks for reminding me of some great music that slipped this old man's cranium!
100% dope AF & intense enough to make one "Cry! Cry! Cry!" Good times, man.
Probably their best tune 🎉❤
武道館のアルバム、今でも持っています。
ロビンが好きで好きで好きで…寝ても覚めても聴いていました。
懐かしい…💕💕💕
This is like one of the few songs played repeatedly on the radio that was live instead of the studio version.
Not a fan of the studio version..too slow...the live version is so much better
@@kenwilliams9539 and too mellow, it sounds like an ice cream parlor, if that makes ense
Along with Claptons Cocaine and Kiss Rock n Roll all Night and Party Every Day
You kids have no idea how fun it was to be rockin' with these guys in the small bars and venues they played before they hit it big. The best energy around!!
Shut up.
Wish I did.
Wish I was there for ACDC in their prime. What an era
@@enigmalfidelity If you are an ACDC fan, look into a paperback book- Rock"N" Roll Fantasy by Susan Masino. It might be out of print, but yes, I was there throughout, bartending in the best eras
Das nennt man Musik , nicht so was wie heutzutage
I do and I'm 60 Years old
One of the best live albums in Rock Music.
True 😊
Rick is such a badass player and showman, always loved them live , they really came to life on stage
Jesus!!! Just wow!!! 1979!? Talk about timeless...must of played this 50 times this weekend!!!
Good morning sweet heart
I listen to song at least 700 times never get bored of this song it way up there of anthem rock pop songs
One of the most iconic live performances of all time! They deserve EVERY bit of their Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame induction. Thank you, guys, for all the great music!
Agreed! Perhaps even the most iconic...
@@Rob4617 Indeed, could be. I also like "Enter Sandman" - Metallica, live in Moscow, & "Comfortably Numb" - Pink Floyd, live "Pulse" concert. Thanks for your reply.
im glad my selectrions help tears in my eyes rt now.from old memory..
@@user-sk8nr4jo4t You were THERE! Awesome!
Rock and roll hall of fame is a Hollywood joke, they put gangster rappers instead of actual legendary rock bands
大好きでしたね。メンバー皆若くてあの頃はファンも熱狂的でした。今も好きです☺️
Never heard of Cheap Trick until I got to college. They were playing on campus, and tickets were next to nothing. Their show was amazing, still remember that night, 40 plus years!
as a 14 year old surrounded by the music of today, this is still my favorite song, it gives a whole different feeling and everything about cheap trick & especially this song is so dreamy and amazing ngl
Sammeeee and I’m 15 but since that was a year ago you are to 😂😂
I'm 16 and sence that was a year ago!!!!🤯
Ur 16/17 now
My all time favorite song too!!!
You have good taste in music bro.
子供の頃、言葉は分からなかったけど大好きだった😍
Guess I'm old here!! Heard this song in the late '70's, when my older children were babies. This is the version I heard, and fell in love with; actually lead singer's voice.
All these years, and he's still awesome!!
I've met the bass player and almost got up close to ROBIN ZANDER.
How close did you get?
when this came out, it was one of the most popular albums ever. There was nothing but great songs on the entire album. We wore out a bunch of 8-tracks cruising around in my '70 Olds in north Jersey..
This has got to be one of the greatest rock and roll concerts in history!
My wife gave birth to my first born chanting this song (it was stick in her head), so now, 21 years later, we are "Cryin', cryin', cryin'!" everytime it pops up.
as a second city native, cheap trick are the best band ever to come out of the chicagoland area. bar none.
Smashing pumpkins and EWF are tight too tho
High School, 1979. Cheap Trick, Areosmith, CCR, Clapton, Alice Cooper, Carlos Santana and Jerry Garcia...good times.
[edit] Boudikan was a good album. Surrender - I want you to want me. Bunny Calos nailed those drums.
Bonzai!!!!!!!!!! 36 years later and looks and sounds just as cool as it did in '79. Viva la wild man Rick Nielsen on guitar!
alicedoesntlivehere Awesome!
I'm a u man
I'm WITH U MAN!!
this is 1978
when people talk about all the top guitarists they never mention rick!!
I actually got a Coca-Cola bottle with the lyric "I Want You To Want Me", and it just hit me in the head of where it came from since I hear it on the radio a lot of times.
I had that on a Coke bottle and a can...
James Butts it's actually cool for them to do that
dont hurt me
I found one that said we are the champions
Hahah well that's good luck !
This is by far the best performance of this song ever recorded
Amazing. A band could be so amazing that it could rock this Japanese stadium and make the crowd scream like mad. Only some 30 years after the end of WWII
Who else is going through their favorite jams thinking about life back in the days? Please tell me I'm not the only one🖐🏼✌🏼️
i was born in 2004 so ain’t realizin the days before i was even born😂
I'm hearing ya.......likewise
I am an old fuck. I am 59. There is not much music from then that I can't tolerate. I play 30 instruments and love to write and jam. Our music was diverse. We liked ALL music back in my day. We rarely fought unless it was another gang, what a different definition then, of boys. Both sides would make sure it was one on one. Life was simpler yet challenging and rewarding. Been using cannabis since I was 14. 45 years without robbing or killing anyone to get it. I hope my daughter and her generation fix all that the chosen fool and the holy sycophants have destroyed over greed and arrogance! With education, tolerance and compassion maybe we will all learn to jam together. Jfff I
FREE THE WEED and $TOP THE GREED!
I long for the days of Cold War & sanity.
You're not alone.
I got to see them a few years back at a small venue in Southern Maryland. It was INSANE! Robin’s voice is so freaking strong still. I was covering the concert for our local paper so I had unrestricted press credentials. I stood between security and the stage so Robins voice would be heard even over the amps. Got a few guitar picks which was great. Robin is still so damn handsome! My skirt would have came off in a split second if he’d of looked at me.
Absolutely love the crowd doing the echo in the chorus after they realized it was missing. Beautiful organic moment
when live performance is best version of this song, it says a lot about quality of band and voices behind it... amazing
Some old dude probably worked at that place 30 years sweeping the floors of trash at the end of the night. Little did he know, on that fateful night, he would be sweeping womens panties up and mopping all the floors without the need for a bucket of juice.
Yeah, these guys were grinders. Always touring, always playing even small venues a night or two at a time. They earned my respect with that attitude. Originally I dismissed them as a flash in the pan playing sounding like 60s bubble gum pop. And then they kept at it for another 50 years and carved out a piece of rock n roll topography for themselves.
@@radman1136 They still are. I, most unfortunately, missed seeing them out here (where I live) very recently. I'd like to see them again before I die. Um... also, 50's & 60's bubble gum pop was kinda neat! (Joey Ramone dug it☺️)
The studio version is so puny in comparison.
Maybe the studio version was really bad.
This is the best version of this song!
THE SONG CAME OUT IN 1977 , The Video was 1979 ,, LOOOOVE THEM 70s ,,
Don"t make music like this anymore, love it
Allen Hibler As a 70s person I agree. They even say Country Music sucks.
@@jimogrady1131 no offense but you guys don't know what you're talking about. there are still plenty of power-pop bands (or bands with power-pop influences) out there
I've watched a lot of live shows. Iron Maiden, Eagles, Pink Floyd, Styx...I always wished I was there for this masterpiece.
❤❤❤
Budokan really propelled these guys into the Stratosphere - they are truly great!
Cheap Trick! You guys are awesome!
De acuerdo!
Even Bun E.?
Holy cow. The influence this had on Japanese pop/rock music is profound.
Bro, i Saw them in 1980 with Angel city, i stopped heavy métal and goes pop right away!
This is a song that will never go out of style, beautiful song.
Great song because I want YOU to want ME, I remember when this song came out I was on my way to the beach, it was an awesome summer! I saw them in Austin, Texas. I've said it before and I will say it again "If you got to grow up anywhere in the 50's through the 80's with all the golden classic movies & music, YOU were blessed!"
One of my favorite songs of all time. I wish that I had written it! ❤️ Over 40 years later and it is still great to hear.
Just saw them live, one of the greatest concerts I will probably ever see. I wish more kids my age were into music like this.. They don't know what they are missing!
Love this song!
I've never been a huge CT fan, but this was on a 2 CD classic rock compilation I had growing up, and it's so timeless that it's been covered by so many artists, from Dwight Yoakam to Hanson. There's also a holiday version Cheap Trick did called "I Want You for Christmas", which is really cute on its own; it starts out slow, but once it goes into the "Budokan" arrangement, I can't help but rock out during the holiday season!
Yeah I remember hearing this song for the first time in the 1980s and I had never heard a studio version so I wondered where it came from. One of my all time favs.
The greatest power pop band of all time.
I stared at that album cover front to back a million times when I was a kid listening to this and imagining this concert in my minds eye. Here I am 40 years later actually seeing it ! The magic of the internet!
Quite possibly one of the greatest live records ever, along with Kiss Alive and Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison. This captured Cheap Trick at their sonic best, along with thousands of screaming Japanese girls 😁
The greatest, most transcendent performance of the greatest song in rock history (alongside all of the other greatest songs in history). Pure, unrestrained brilliance.
I don't get much time to listen to cheap trick but when I do so do my neighbors
It's a good line bro', just don't wear it out. I just saw the same post at "Carry on Wayward Son."
I always say that myself. But they, my neighbors, also get the pleasure of listening to many movies I watch! Once, when playing the landing scene at Omaha Beach in the movie SAVING PRIVATE RYAN and listening to it through my stereo which cost more than My car, my neighbor actually came all the way down my driveway, opened the gate, came up the deck, glanced into the window, then knocked on the door! We could see him as a shadow on the curtains. And of course we could not hear the knock from inside so I turned it down fully expecting him to be upset! He asked, "are you watching Saving Private Ryan?" and I answered "of course!" He looked at me and said, "Mind if my family watches it with yours?" :)
@Thomas Campbell - You can't really wear it out when it truly applies to so many great songs like this. :D
I don't often get to steal other people's clever lines but when I do everyone notices and downvotes
That is so true Kahnadah! Feel that way myself at times lol
A masterpiece!🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝🌹💝
More hooks than a tackle box. Fantastic stuff.
GREATNESS - loved these guys since the debut, way back in 1977 and they are still making killer albums to this day! LEGENDS \m/
I used to dance around the house with my son as a toddler to this ❤️❤️❤️
The good old days when bands knew how to write amazing songs and knew how to play them.
Shit up.
You surely now how to be an old mean guy 😊
@@thestreetintheforest_ But a talented one, too. And you surely know how to be a snowflake and not spell words correctly.
@@thestreetintheforest_ Hey it's the truth. -another old mean guy.
It only occurred for a few years. Prior to the Beatles, big bands rarely wrote their own songs. Of course radio was deregulated in 1981 allowing monopolies to form so that the big music companies could force a major singer down people's throats until they hit #1 and making sure they didn't write their own songs, which helped keep them on a tight leash. By the late 1990's it was becoming rarer and rarer for big hits to be sung by the person who wrote it.
Summer of '79, just finished my A-Levels, summer was here and Cheap Trick blasting at full volume across the school playing fields. Will never forget these guys. Genius.
I'm 59 and have been playing drums for 35+ years.
Cheap Trick is always on my agenda with who ever I play with ...
Great stuff!
These guys were and always will be gold. My 20s right here...so fun a time. They really put on such great concerts too. Luv Cheap Trick!
They once said in an interview that they may not have been the favorite group of too many fans, but they were the second favorite group of a whole lot of fans!
My twenties too, going to clubs and the bands playing this was just an awesome time. Great great band!!
Every Japanese person attending that concert knew they were witnessing something spectacular. A band at their peak, with a string of hits. At a famous venue.
Loving this song as much as years back! Ya know that feeling? Oh yeah! 🍸 ❤️
Damn Robin can sing 😊
I am a female student in Japan, and I was surprised to learn that Cheap Trick came to Japan the year my mother was born.
Music never fades over the years, I love Cheap Trick⸜❤︎⸝
R U really a Japanese? I cant believe Japanese know English so well like you... Answer me...
@@user-vg3ix4xb2q I'm Japanese.I am now an 18 year old girl.
I wasn't very good at learning English, but I've been listening to Cheap Trick and studying here in the comments section!🙂
I am happy to be able to have a conversation in English in this way.
@@user-tb6jo6ob1l As an asian, your English is pretty good !
@@user-tb6jo6ob1l 18... Hummm... Bright and brilliant age... As you'll know i'm an ole Korean. south Korea... and i like ole western, american and Europe music and songs...I can figure out your mother's age ^^ That Album was released in 1979, i know... And i still have it... Anyway.... Thanks 's-' But i Know only Japan version was really really enjoyable, Live from Butokan.. i never been to Butokan, but i find in a map.... Dose your mother was born in Butokan? Answer me...
I saw them just after the Budokan album around 79 80 and they were huge. It is still the LOUDEST show I ever saw and my ears rang for 3 days. I was sitting about 8 rows back and as the words"Ladies and Gentlemen, are u ready " screamed out, I was surged toward the stage as a tidal wave of people came surging from the back. It was an unbelievable show. I remember one encore song was Day Tripper and that described it all perfectly!!
Yup they were loud when they were headlining. I first saw them in 1977 when they opened for KISS, but the second time I saw them was in 1979 at Spartan Stadium in San Jose, CA They played 3rd bill with Pat Travers and Blue Oyster Cult, and I remember as Rick came onstage he said “Hey were gonna play a little bit longer today, is that ok with you” and about 35,000 roared their approval!!!!!! They played for about one hour and twenty minutes. Came back for 2 oncore’s playing “Just got back and Day Tripper” I’ve seen them live maybe 25 times, but that was the best and loudest concert I’ve ever seen them do.
@@bartonpercival2147 Wow Barton u are a devoted fan. 25 times!!! I live in NZ and seen them only twice sadly. It was surreal to be only 3 or 4 feet away from them and because of their status after the Budokan album, they were rock gods like The Beatles. I was off my face as well.
making it more surreal.
They had to get the Mayor of Auckland City to come in and try to quell the crowd as people were jumping everywhere up in the rafters. It was recorded as 110 decibels. We are only 5million people but we love to rock down here. When The Foos played here a few years ago on one of their many tours here, the first ever seismic underground wave was recorded in history. The band is proud of that. It was a crowd of 50,000 but we get right into it and lots get high too. Yes Cheap Trick are icons. I just love Rick Neilsen, his raw sound and his image is unique. Thanks mate!
@@dannymiles6503 Wow 110 decibels that’s insane. It’s great to know that great music is enjoyed and loved throughout the world. I was just a young teenager when the Beatles invaded America, but after Cheap Tricks Budokan show, I kinda felt like I understood the mania surrounding the Beatles. Cheers indeed mate!!!!!! 👍
Cheap Trick was my SECOND concert, in 1986. They had been around forever by that time. 37 years ago they had already been around a long time. It was excellent. "The Flame" was getting lots of radio play.
Great Song 🎵2024. ENID 💌💌💌
One of the Greatest Live Bands Ever.
Cheap Trick is fanFu$$ingtastic!
I've never seen footage of this legendary concert. Brought the album and played to death back in the 70s and only stumbled on these concert footage in the last year or so. EPIC!
I was brain washed by this song when attending college in the States, well almost 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I love this song.
Saw them perform this in concert on June 30, 1979 in Shreveport, LA!! ❤🎶
Just took my son to see this band this evening as his FIRST concert....they've still got it and always will.
One of the all time best live bands!
Maybe the best live album ever... what energy man
This song is like Peter Frampton's "Show Me The Way." NO ONE has heard the studio version. ('Kay, not really, but really.)
+DickTruth I guess it depends on ones age cause I can recall when the studio version was on the radio everyday when the song came out, and still prefer it over the live version. I bought the cassette back in the day and have the CD now, the In Color and B&W album is a classic.
+Wayne DeMunn This tune was never on the radio until Budokan came out. At least i don't remember it, and I was 13. Could be me.
+SirHuddleston Fuddleston Depends on where you were I guess. Played in Melbourne on 3XY in its day.
+Wayne DeMunn I have that album too and Live @ Budokan, ah Happy Days :)
+SirHuddleston Fuddleston I just looked up the basic history of the original single and I must admit I' amazed to learn the single never charted in the US. I cant really argue what I read or believe it. The only explanation I can give is that I live about 20 miles from Cheap Tricks hometown in Rockford and that it must have been a regional thing cause I heard it on the radio all the time, thats why I bought the album. I listened to WYFE and WZOK back in those days and it definitely played on those stations.
