The very next year "Orleans" came out with another weird one. "Love Takes Time" That one told young people if they hadn't found the love of their life, it was OK. Nothing wrong with that. But also against the landscape.
So true. I think it even goes a bit deeper. Something like "your parents will never understand them (and they'll never understand you), but they're a part of you whether you like it or not, and you can't be your own person until you understand that".
I love the line about the parents listening to the son's Kiss records. I dig how it shows that they're just like him in ways that are most important. There's a bit of youth lingering around in everyone, even in your old ass parents :P
Well, my Mom did end up singing along to Alice Cooper when I was a teen and my son always secretly liked the fact that he first heard AC/DC and the Beastie Boys in his little car seat so..... Yeah.
Loved how this band blurred the edges of new wave, punk and straight ahead rock n roll. Few bands did it as effortlessly as they did and do. I still don't know how this many years later to categorize them. All the best things in life can't be I suppose.
Cheap Trick were hard to pigeonhole visually as well as musically. With two rock gods and two cartoon characters in their lineup, they didn't look like any other band. They certainly played up that contrast on their early album covers. It was as if the cool guys and the nerds from school got together in the same band and somehow made it work. You can almost imagine back in high school, Robin or Tom approaching Rick and Bun E. and saying, "Guys, you have to help me with my homework because if I flunk out my Dad is gonna kill me." "Uh, OK, we'll help you , but you have to agree to join our band".
"Mommy's all right, Daddy's all right. They just seem a little weird". When Surrender first blasted out of our radios in the 1970s, I thought, "Wow. Somebody just wrote the perfect teenage anthem...a My Generation for my generation". I mean, The Who were like gods to us, but most of us did not literally hope to die before we got old. Mostly, we were interested in rolling numbers, rock and roll, and getting our KISS records out. I still love Cheap Trick and this song to this day.
I live in Thailand. The first rock band I started listening to was Cheap Trick when I was 13 years old. I'm 58 years old now and I still listen to them.
I am a die hard Kiss fan, and these guys opened for them in 78 into 79 and were absolutely fantastic 👌!!!! This is my favorite song 🎵 of theirs and believe me I love all of them!!!
Thank you guys. This song was the song I used to sing to my sons as babies for a lullaby. I don't know lullabies. Lol. So I sang what I knew. And this song a capella, in a slower tempo did the trick.
Thank you Cheap Trick for existing. I was 13 in '77 when my best friend Mike and I met up, likely the day after he'd seen KISS at the San Diego Sports Arena (super bummed I couldn't go; parents wouldn't let me). Mike and I were both already huge KISS fans, and at 13, seeing them in concert was a big deal. Fortunately, my parents let me attend the KISS concert the following year. Anyway, Mike and I did as we often did, skateboarded to the local Sav-On to browse the magazine section. Mike mentioned that opening for KISS was a band called Cheap Trick. They weren't getting any airplay yet, at least on KGB 101.5 FM in San Diego, so I hadn't heard of them. Mike said, "They were pretty good". So we checked out the current publication of Circus Magazine (featured info and photos of popular bands) and Cheap Trick was in it. Mike was trying to describe Rick Neilson's attire, and the contrast between his look and Robin Zander's. Circus made it all very clear...Cheap Trick was a very intriguing group of characters. Bun E. Carlos included (the '60s, white collar worker look was awesome). Shortly thereafter, Mike bought their In Color LP and I was even more fascinated by Rick Neilson, with the ultra-goofy garb, perfectly matching his silly face. But it was all that combined with the fact that he was a killer, down an' dirty rockin' guitarist that was so captivating. Needless to say, we all became huge CT fans in no time. I was proud to wear a Cheap Trick T-shirt to school on a regular basis. Between the late '70s and maybe late '80s to early '90s, I saw them in concert 11 times. A few times at the Sports Arena (got way too stoned that night, probably in '79), possibly once at the S.D. stadium, several times at the Del Mar Fair and once at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach. As another youtuber wrote (a year ago), I too am glad to live in a world where (he said this song), but I'll expand it to...a world where this band exists. Cheap Trick played a big part in my experiences growing up and feel fortunate and blessed to have grown up in a great era. I still select and listen to Surrender on my high-end vintage stereo, always especially impacted when the part "When I woke up, mom and dad...", as I just think the vocals from there to "...got my KISS records ouuuuut" are genius. Big ol' phat and massive talent in that band...Hail Rick, Robin, Bun E. and Tommy! Bonus: Eu-uu, I need some brand-new shoes Southern girls, ya got nothing to lose Plus...their She's Tight video...man oh man, those were the days, watching MTV for hours after school. And that vid had fairly good rotation; might be among the greatest classic MTV music videos. And I am sorry, but we just don't hear enough singers yelling with max intensity, "So I got off the phone!" in today's music. I get it...it'd be weird if we did. But the excitement was intense...having just got the # of the girl we'd been yearning for. And that first ring up...stressful. I sure do miss the '70s and '80s. Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end.
That's an awesome story and a great discription of Cheap Trick. I first saw them as the opening act for KISS in 1977. Became a lifelong fan of Cheap Trick. Their sound is unmistakable with Ricks blaring guitar and the big beat sound of Bun on the drum kit, plus the huge sound of Tom's 12 string bass and of course Robin's insane vocal range. I've gone on to see them over 25 times live in concert. From 25,000 seat stadiums to 500 fans at small clubs, Cheap Trick always puts on a fun and awesome show!!!!!!!! 👍
This song is far above the time. And they were these unique teenagers who were able to say that "mommy's alright, daddy's alright" and make the others also see it. I can't tell how fuckin' much this song did hit me at the time when I was thinking my parents are fucked up. It took just a few minutes to change my whole point of viev.
This Cheap Trick song, a timeless masterpiece!! It just never gets old and of course it still sounds really great after all these years. One of the most legendary rock bands of all time, Cheap Trick got their due the right way. This great jam is always worth listening to when you crank up that volume all the way up. Rock on!!!!

Best part of the song (besides the mention of KISS) is at the end when they start singing at 03:45 "Bun is alright, Tom is alright, Robin's alright, Rick is alright" They're all alright and give themselves a namecheck haha
Absolutely!!! Why not acknowledge and immortalize themselves in their own song! I'm glad that someone noticed that. Coolest part. Hope that they'll be alright forever 🙏 Rock on Bun-E, Tommy, Robin and Rick ❤👌🙌
I love love love the part where his parents are listening to his KISS records. My dad swears to everything under the sun that once in the 70's he walked in on my grandmother vacuuming to Alice Cooper and dancing around, which was the coolest thing I'd ever heard of!
I do love this song. I love the... maturity, let's call it...of a rock band recognizing that their parents were not only young once, but they had sex, partied, and may even get those old feelings again from time to time.
I consider this to be the greatest pop song of all time. If you think about it, it combines just about everything....... punk, bubblegum, pop, metal, grunge, disco, you name it, it's all there
Sorry about your Mom. I was also born in 1976- clearly it was a good year and she lives on in you and the music and art you will share with the next generation. It's gonna be great :).
Still after the years, this Band is a good reminder of the wonderful 80's sound. They play extraordinary shows and one of their best is "Live at Budokan" in Japan.
@@SK-le1gm Not really... to "surrender", means, generally, to relinquish one's self over to an authority of some sort, without opening up in some honest and emotional way. On the other hand the suggestion of [not] "giving oneself away", as within the context of the song, to a parent, means simply to acquiesce and to 'come to [emotional] terms' with them. Human beings are quite complex, especially in the formative years and beyond involving parents. Not everything is always so black and white.
This is the first album i bought with my own money at 16...fell in love with Tom Petersson such an attractive man....and still is...i love you style Tom...🌻🌻💋💋😄
Kinda wish they saved this as the closing track because this is a textbook example of a perfect album closer Still one of the best songs of the century
This song already has plenty going for it. But when they suddenly change keys at the start of the 3rd verse, omg, it's like a fighter jet hitting the afterburners! Just kicks everything up into an even higher gear for the homestretch.
There's also a key change even before the first verse begins. As if there was a non-existent pre-verse leading into the song and then it kicks into gear.
What a great song, I swear! I remember I listened to this on heavy rotation back in secondary school and now I'm nearly 24 and a half! A classic which never gets old in the hard rock genre! Rock on, Cheap Trick! All the best, much health, and success! Respect from Romania! :)
@Cheap Trick - Surrender (Official Audio) We went to a Cheap Trick concert in Modesto, CA at the Gallo Center for Performing Arts. What a blast from the past. They are getting as old as me: I've been rock and rollin' for 81 strong years.
Released 78', sounds like 90's, waaaaaaay ahead of their time. Im born 94' and heard this song back in early 00's in a movie and listened to it ever since. Reading comments it seems people heard this and loved it cos it gave great message and sounded like kind of an teen anthem back then. How our world got this way and why did i get born in wrong time?
I remember playing this on Guitar Hero as a kid. This was the opening song and it immediately drew me into rocking the guitar throughout the summers. Those were such great times! 😢
That is awesome. I loved Guitar Hero and Rock Band due to having so many of my fav songs on there. Also loved them for introducing younger generations to some amazing, classic rock songs. Rock on, Brotha! 🤘🏼
Can’t wait to show my future kids the music my dad showed me as a kid when he eventually passes away the memories this song holds with me and my dad since I was 7 years old I’m coming on to 20 years old now thank you for ur amazing music taste that I can show our future generations 😅🎉😂
F is for Family - Bill is a big fan of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 (Gunn), same here 😁 👍👍 Weird people (everyone) make weird kids, and the vicious cycle continues. Surrender and accept, smile and live with a sense of humour - always look on the bright side...
Rick can hit you with a pick ... From Fourty rows out..! & i've never seen anyone play a 12 string bass before this.. Or seen Bun E. Carlos use four foot long Drumsticks...
A great track or song that should be added to a future GTA, Saint's Row, Mercenaries, Getaway, Driver, Just Cause or other open world/free roam titles in 2022 and beyond.
im from Rockford where these guys are from, living here in the 2020s and hearing this music makes me so sad because it makes it seem like back in the 70s this town was alot more vibrant and "real" if that makes any sense. Rick is still roaming around this place which is cool, and his kids do alot of stuff with music locally.
I can't believe until they released "Live from Budukon"(spelling) that they were from Rockford, especially since I lived about 15 miles from there! And my friend waited on Rick Nielsen and his son about 1982(?) when we worked at Walgreens in the local mall! 😊
I remember when I was really little (super early 90s) my dad heard this on the radio and turned it up and said "Hey! This is that song you liked the words to when we were watching "Fast TImes" Since then, I was an official Cheap Trick fan (I do love the Dream Police so much, too)
I saw them at Jones Beach with Rod Stewart a few weeks back. It was easily one of the best concerts I ever saw. And I saw Live Aid and about one hundred other concerts.

The Who really opened up what you can do on drums. Same with Rush, Black Sabbath. Hendrix is the ultimate guitarist (imo)
Listen to good music. Take the right drugs moderately, and stay creative and you’ll live happy.
I like this song I'm young
At the end, if you listen closely, they sing "Bun E.'s alright, Tommy's alright, Robin's alright, Rick's alright. We're all alright"
I always wondered what they were saying in the background, but could never make it out. Thanks!

Loved this song as a kid and still as a grandparent. It mixes youthful rebellion with appreciation for your parents, which is a rare theme
The last minute of this song is pure magic
one of the band's best choruses, and everything underpinned by swirling keyboards and a terrific multilayered climax.
I remember playing this on Guitar Hero as a kid. This was the opening song and it immediately drew me into rocking the guitar throughout the summers. Those were such great times! 😢
I discovered this song playing guitar hero 2, 14 years ago. Always been my jam ever since
That is awesome. I loved Guitar Hero and Rock Band due to having so many of my fav songs on there. Also loved them for introducing younger generations to some amazing, classic rock songs.
Rock on, Brotha! 🤘🏼
same here!! my favorite guitar hero 2 jam!!
Same way I discovered this song as well
Same 😎
One the greatest songs from a great band.
The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 brought me here.
Guardians of galaxy for me
Pixels & F Is For Family Season 5 Brought Me Here
Conan brought me!
Love this band. Coolest drummer ever.
Watch the DRUMMER from the Glam Rock band The Sweet from the 70s a few times then get back to the comments lol
This song was so ahead of its time. Like this seems like it could’ve been made by Weezer or someone similar in the 90s/2000s.
power pop is forever
A friend of my brother brought this album over when I was a kid. BOOM!! Fan for life!!
RIP big brother Scott (8/2022)
Imagine replying to yourself in the comments section....Couldn't be me!
I was lucky enough to see this band live 🤘👌
Can’t wait to show my future kids the music my dad showed me as a kid when he eventually passes away the memories this song holds with me and my dad since I was 7 years old I’m coming on to 20 years old now thank you for ur amazing music taste that I can show our future generations 😅🎉😂
So inspiringly similar to 90's and 2000's Punk Rock bands 🎼🎶🎹🎸🎙🎤💿
Love...love...

I was looking for this comment
Im seeing this Thursday night in Martin, TN!!!! First time was in 1982. It’s been waaay to long! Yay!!!
🤘🤘🌹🎸
F is for Family - Bill is a big fan of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 (Gunn), same here 😁 👍👍 Weird people (everyone) make weird kids, and the vicious cycle continues. Surrender and accept, smile and live with a sense of humour - always look on the bright side...
One the greatest songs from a great band.
I love cheap trick and surrender
Rick can hit you with a pick ...
From Fourty rows out..!
& i've never seen anyone play a 12 string bass before this..
Or seen Bun E. Carlos use four foot long Drumsticks...
Im glad they put this song in pixels it really sets the stage and it's also a really good summer song
It where i heard it first and it stuck in head ever since
I've heard this song on guardiance of the galaxy
Came from jjba
you mean guardians of the galaxy vol.3?
@@Boozhler I think it has great CGI and I think it's overhated due to Adam Sandler being in it.
The beat ❤❤❤❤
🤘🤘🌹🎸
Songs been stuck in my head for what feels like years.
Finally surrendered my cares to the great unknown. Feel freer than I have ever felt.
Favorite Cheap Trick Song🔥
Fell in love with Cheap Trick after seeing 'Over The Edge,' seeing them live next week 🔥
I needed a Cheap fix this morning my go to song. Shout out to Cheap Trick and the great 70’s!
Beautiful.
A great track or song that should be added to a future GTA, Saint's Row, Mercenaries, Getaway, Driver, Just Cause or other open world/free roam titles in 2022 and beyond.
im from Rockford where these guys are from, living here in the 2020s and hearing this music makes me so sad because it makes it seem like back in the 70s this town was alot more vibrant and "real" if that makes any sense. Rick is still roaming around this place which is cool, and his kids do alot of stuff with music locally.
MOST TOWNS ,,,,WHERE .....THE 70s where FANTASTIC I was there
0:01 Pixels, Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.2 & F Is For Family Season 5 Brought Me Here!
I came here cause I like the song
Daddy day care ftw
What also brought me here: Bruh Nye the science guy episode sixteen: The sensational senses.
I can't believe until they released "Live from Budukon"(spelling) that they were from Rockford, especially since I lived about 15 miles from there! And my friend waited on Rick Nielsen and his son about 1982(?) when we worked at Walgreens in the local mall! 😊
Pixels 😍
What a stunning song.
Cheer~~~cease resistance to an enemy or opponent and submit to their authority.(all rhythm accompaniment...good)😊
Pixels was an amazing movie, change my mind.
No
I wont
I'm not going to change your mind cuz you're correct
NOP.
Too Much Sandler (in the bad way)
The movie would have been great without Adam Sandler and his gang at the casting and they would change with another actors
One of my favourites from Cheap Trick
*favorites
Forever grateful for Guitar Hero introducing me to a lot of great Classic songs 🙏🏻
My son who is nine as of last month, was asking me my favorite guitar hero songs and I said this one and we came here to listen to it!
God bless Indonesia❤ and the Philippines❤
Cheap Trick, God bless you and yours daily🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍
I remember when I was really little (super early 90s) my dad heard this on the radio and turned it up and said "Hey! This is that song you liked the words to when we were watching "Fast TImes" Since then, I was an official Cheap Trick fan (I do love the Dream Police so much, too)
Light Rock or heavy Pop? Who cares! Cheap Trick wrote, recorded & performed great songs.
F is for Family. Hard to see this one end, it's like you've followed the entire life of people and had to say goodbye
Power pop at it's finest. These guys set the bar. Legends that just did their thing 💫
All the early 2000 movies had this song in it. 😂😂😂
Along with
"In the middle" by: Jimmy Eat World
I'm here from my childhood. 😂
Scarlet Valdez also in the movie Pixels
Iwas 17 in 78
Heard this song at the barbershop today. Had to come back to it. Haven't heard this in so many years.
I saw them at Jones Beach with Rod Stewart a few weeks back. It was easily one of the best concerts I ever saw. And I saw Live Aid and about one hundred other concerts.
They are a phenomenal live band.
I learned of this song, and instantly fell in love with it, so I bought the 45, when I was a teenager watching the movie Over the Edge.
Guitar hero and pixel feat Adam Sandler brought me here ❤❤
Saw Cheap Trick open for Lou Reed in '73. We thought they were WEIRD!
Love Cheap Trick ❤
my dad and I used to like this song a lot when I was young. I just heard this song on the radio. I can't believe I forgot about this masterpiece.
This is my number one favourite song of all time it was in pixels and I love that movie
I grew up on pixels lol
SAME. And W pixels getting this cool song on their movie.
I gotta thank GOTG for this jewel. ❤
