[LTDHO]

Great remake :)

[GhostsInMyAttic]

Robin played 3 old Cheap Trick songs at this years Trans Siberian Orchestra show in Tampa, It was awesome grey top hat and all.

[Syzygy60]

can we get a more co depenedent lead singer?

[Syzygy60]

they r great but u forget ELVIS is One they r 4

[rockstarpinki]

una cancion de uno de los grandes hecho cover por los grandes!! >.< <3

[jaruca2007]

Better than Elvis...

[mrkoolmarky]

bloody rocking brilliant!!! the 80s forever!! :)))

[TokyoXer]

I like this version more than the Elivs one ... but don`t tell anyone :)

[Liquidlizar]

I love the part when they all look around at eachother...

[santiagoangeles]

I know i made mistakes, but she should believe me, i'm telling the truth... She's so cruel :(

[jokkergar]

LOL!!

[samuraix73]

Great cover of a great song.

[medubled]

BIG fan of the KING! He would have loved it. One of the best remakes I've heard.

[rockstar29991]

chap trick is sooooooooooo cheap they have horrible clothes

[turfshredder]

@rockstar29991 Then close your eyes.

[revacohen]

@rockstar29991 I think they looked good.

[sxyfunchck]

@rockstar29991

It was a little thing called the 80's!

[illustrate100]

Elvis would love this. He'd dance to it.

[Danny980223]

Good but cant beat the Kings. You just cant!!

[CassandraAntares]

very cool

[jweckstrom]

Like i told before,these guys should be in the hall of fame...!

[brendan71488]

Didn't a stage collapse on them recently in Indiana???

[bantameis]

They do a better job than Elvis did.

[zebra1067]

@bantameis agreed

[Delta69Dawn]

WHO IN THE HELL THOUGHT THESE IDIOTS COULD EVEN DO THIS SONG JUSTICE???? PLEASE TAKE OFF THE PLAYLIST.. I AM SHOCKED AND APPALLED AND FOR THE RECORD THERE IS NO ONE WHO CAN DO JUSTICE TO THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL..... DELTA69DAWN

[iriegnome]

@Delta69Dawn Elvis was a fat bastard whole stole most of his music from poor black artists that did not ever get credit or payment for their work. Elvis was a drug addict who does not deserve any of the reverence he gets and was a washed up pig at the time of his death.

[barnabas50]

@iriegnome Charming...

[jaruca2007]

@iriegnome Elvis didn't steal anything from poor black artists. In any case if that happened that was made by the greedy producers...

[musicmaestrodj]

I saw them do this song live at the Coliseum in Vancouver, BC when it was charting; it was awesome! When they performed it, every time you heard the 'Bop Bop!' they had blinder lights swinging out to the beat, kind of hard to explain but it was very cool, something I always remembered...

[52wbending52]

This is a really great cover

[goatacidez]

great cover!

[JanetEsq]

Is Zander really playing that guitar? His left hand barely moved three times.

[cleancab]

@JanetEsq Instruments are never played when making videos. Notice how none of the guitars are plugged in?

[plpmurdog1]

Nice--This band just hangs around..saw them at the Marion Popcorn Festival years ago. Rick Nielsen was impressive on guitar.

[mryjn420090]

80s version of a 50s song lol

[TheTiarraLove]

Cheap trick is so perfect i can't even comprehend it

[jeo48]

@jnyveslbl. What do you mean they "smashed kiss" retard. At least our band does'nt cancel shows because of a stupid laser pointer. Zander can still sing, Rick can still play guitar like he did way back when, and Tom plays a mean bass. Gene Simmons cant sing . And peter criss is just an asshole

[7855waldo]

@jeo48 - Anyone with a good word for KISS was born with a blow-up doll for a mother.

[pkfireflies]

Fantastic!

[jnyveslbl]

Oh Yes, this is better than E's, but... not same era, gotta consider that!

Well, to answer MsCoffy, Cheap Trick had it going great up until they blasted at Kiss on stage one night back then (early '80s), that triggered their slow ending. Because, it was Ace and Gene who brought them into the picture.... you see...

Anyways, I love their 3 hits.

[BestMusicExpert]

@jnyveslbl 3 hits? They had a few more than three...

[jnyveslbl]

@BestMusicExpert Ummm... "I Love You To Love Me", and "Dream Police", and "Don't Be Cruel", thats 3 hits.

[BestMusicExpert]

@jnyveslbl ummm... For one its I WANT you to WANT me. They also had hits with: Ain't That A Shame, The Flame, Cant Stop Falling Into Love & Voices. Which makes 7.

In addition, songs that didnt hit the pop charts but hit the rock charts were: She's Tight, Tonight It''s You & If You want my Love....

[jnyveslbl]

@BestMusicExpert Yeah, you're the expert. I only like their 3 hits.

[MsCoffyBrown]

Better than Elvis' original. I saw Cheap Trick years ago when they opened for Motley Crue (yes, I am open to listening to all types of music). They were louder than the Crue! Cheap Trick is the most underrated Hard Rock band out there! Are they in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, because if not, they should be!

[KajunAngel69]

this video and song evokes very happy memories for me

[roddanrocks]

Better than Elvis :-)

[funnybethany]

thumbs up if u perfer this version then elvis's

[gailmckennag]

bads idea , 'let go ' is gr8 . i made a cd without this. i'm getting in to 'the doctor' lp

[gailmckennag]

the solo is note for note.tight band.

[gailmckennag]

he worst song they have ever done.who suggested this instead of any other sopng on a gr8 lp. i'd prefer ' space'.

[StandByYourAnchorsTV]

@gailmckennag Idk man, I still kinda like it :)

[Qamila1]

Oh hell yes.

[AJuarez764]

Those girls are hot! Love watching them dance! :-)

[oneslow1]

Wow! Still sounds great today.

[LAVirgo67]

The smokin' drummer kills me! He's not apologizing for nothing.

[CLASICHEAVYMETAL]

ELVIS PRESLEY FOREVER !!!

SALUDOS DESDE EL PERU.

[mrianmark]

I photographed Cheap Trick in 77 when they opened for Kiss. To see the shots go to 70srockphotos (.com)

[MartinMolko]

yeah, i love elvis too

[chocobosodamoogleful]

The lead singer is pretty hot.

What's his name?

[TheRockNRollHippie]

@chocobosodamoogleful Totally agree, man. His name is Robin Zander.

[DaveWollenberg]

The boys from Rockford hit #4 in Billboard, 10-8-88. God bless ya, for postin' it .

[wanuirmanson1986]

demaisssssssssssss

[MrBanjo102]

Great.

[hardsandra]

♥♥♥♥

[spore73]

6 dislikes i mean assholes

[3impersonators]

Tom seems like a very sunshiny individual.

[MrBundydave]

if you do not like this, your soul is dead.

[alcest35]

@MrBundydave Damn straight... and I for one can tell you this is food for my soul. They still do a rocking live version of this song, when the spirit moves them!

[CelinaCea]

SUPER!!!!!

[nirvana3275]

i could listen to this song all day:) soo in my words its one of the best songs by them !

[earlfishbigwater]

@nirvana3275 dance baby dance

[MrBjornka]

One of the Cheap Trick's song that i like most. Thank you for posting.



[KETARBBA]

[ianhunterfan]

They are all soooooooooooooo cool!

[valentinomonroe1]

How can anyone dislike this?,everything about this classic remake makes it classic his sexy voice ,those cool musicians and those girls singing that way rock.

[tdearsan]

so, you're not enjoying the video. stop watching it and move on. to spray your vitriol all over one of the most iconic and beloved American bands ever wastes all of our time. just go. leave. be gone with you. go watch a beyonce video or something.

[brian7125]

@tdearsan , beyonce....lololololololololol­ololololoolooooooooooooooooooo­oooooo

[MrRanman500]

This has to be one of the best cover songs ever....

[francescozadarmo]

nice solo!!!



[MsStaciejm]

~Bun E. Carlos is the ESSENCE of cool~

[youraverageuser]

great remake

[vlekje22]

gay :-)

[TheOzzierocks]

I love the remote control part.

[marcelodarkkiss]

ooh que hago yo en el video!

[doublebassism]

bad ass drummer

[darbeerathbun]

Hope they play this one tonight, in Greeley, with Blue Oyster Cult.

[toro2265]

I love this song performed by a great band, one of the best in 1988 and perhaps the whole of 1980's

[preshytimey1]

hot hot hot what a sassy young man!

[preshytimey1]

hot hot hot sassy little boy!

[kusurs]

[summi510]

The singer used to b sooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!

[tlynch1218]

@summi510 still is!!!

[hoss73ford1]

I don't normally like remakes but this one I did and I honestly believe Elvis would have too

[RoxyLepRocker]

Robin Zander is gorgeouuus! And I think this cover is great :)

[mogges1]

OK JACK OFF

[mogges1]

they sure screw up this song this sucks.ant no one can sang this song like Elvis .

[thetigerbenji]

@mogges1 dont listen to it then idiot

[casestudyification]

Gonna be seeing them in Clive. Why no Bun E. I wonder? I just noticed for the first time that Bun's drum kit is reversed- left handed in this video!

[malfalcon]

@casestudyification BUNNY was awesome! he switched all the time. He was really a great drummer!

[casestudyification]

Gonna be seeing them in Clive. Why no Bun E. I wonder?

[kja427]

11 years after Elvis left the planet, Cheap Trick made the grade with their cover of this Elvis classic. Nice job, guys!

[booman1323]

drummer rocks!!!!!!

[earlfishbigwater]

The music the clothes ..ooooooolove it

[andresmarcelo2]

POR FIN MUSICA DE VERDAD !!!!

[baileyweding]

one of the single greatist bands alive, and still together.......amazing

[revacohen]

5 people are sadists.

[cheaptrick2427]

The drummer ALWAYS has a smoke loool

i<3robin

[RushAndQueenFan]

Cheap Trick has brought music to everyone throughout the world. They're a great musical inspiration to every musician

[gtrebich]

Bun E. does so much with so little. A true rock drummer. I'm from Memphis and CT made us proud. Elvis smiled.

[bellantara]

Oh man, I had forgotten this song! Love it!

[tomnewyork]

Good song and great 80's memories!!! Thanks for posting!

[Jx8o5]

this guys hair... something about it... its so amazing :OOO

[iloveyouame]

que buena rola , que recuerdos

[luciamonroy]

wow que maravilla¡¡¡ besos.

[davijsky1]

Awesome!

[springloadedchicken]

first time i heard this.. was at a 'known' tattoo studio... (no, not going to mention.. we left on bad terms.. when the major bread maker left) and i was soo cynical going "oh for cryin' out !!!" ... then was like.. hey! "that's cheap trick...." only they can tribulate rather accordingly! aaah, nice memories.. it was a local radio broadcast popularity... my tattoo took 18 hours.. and i think we heard it 12 times that period of time. i was pleased! thank you! i enjoyed that!

[ProfaneRex]

play 'i want you to want me' and get on with it.

[sassylatina808]

Cool version of a classic tune.

[Innocantis]

This is a damn good song but the video makes meh really dizzy. They switch camera angels to much

[butrflzjess]

Man Cheap trick were awesome.. you know the cheap trick look is coming back in my town too.. I think thats pretty cool

[therailfanman]

Thes guys were just awesome all thewy.

[Syzygy60]

i invented this ..l..

[SCHMIRNER]

Best cover effer

[gabstanace2]

This HAS to be one of the greatest covers ever: a classic in its own right. Go Cheap Trick!

[Djlullaby22]

the guy is hot!

[alargedog]

what o laod of fucking shite im glad im dying son

[nastycacabeanjoes]

Music like this is ageless. I attended so many Cheap Trick concerts and had the time of my life when they sang songs like this. Now I get to watch my kids discover the age of music before rap and derive the same enjoyment from it. Pretty cool.

[Syzygy60]

bonus points for female back up singers

[Syzygy60]

cool everything,I always forget the y

[Syzygy60]

cool everthing

[aratgorn39]

elvissss foreverrr

[Hiduregan]

1:19 I thought he was making the "fuck you" ,,l,,

[SlashIsRockNRoll2010]

@Hiduregan if you can play guitar thisll prob seem really pointless but some people do that when playing a power chord because it leaves the middle finger free :)

[Foorehtnossip]

Happy Birthday today to Elvis 8 Jan 2011 ~!! Today

[jonneeb61]

great vid.johnnyB

[Syzygy60]

Elvis on velvet Brian Setzer and stray cats

[Syzygy60]

hi Merry Christmas,I'm back :)

[LukasFin]

Exactly! Dont be...let me..and let you...at the open fireplace on fur.

[NickRicc7332]

EPICCCC

[Paul19807]

There was a time in the 80's, when I was about 13 or 14 (when is this from, anyway? 1985?) that I thought this was the most awesome video in the history of the world.

It's aged fairly well, too.

[LF4L]

@Paul19807 It was from 1988, but you are right...it has aged fairly well.

[Syzygy60]

I have mixed emotions,Elvis will kick their ass on his worst day...I'm sry I gotta sit down

[Syzygy60]

chuck berry did the same thing,I give extra kudos to Chuck,he wrote and played his own music,maybe Chuck is King !

[Syzygy60]

I understand Elvis sang Black Music,that was why he was a pioneer,he united black & white with rock & roll

[Syzygy60]

Elvis was a pioneer,everyone else had years to analyze it...Elvis Is King and will always be KING!

[bobloren]

"Surrender" was a big song when I was in the Army.  I saw this band in Frankfurt, Germany,1979, I believe it was. They weren't the headliner, but stole the show. I have been a fan since that concert. I just saw them this past summer in Washington DC. Still putting on a great show.

[atamgits007]

Fuse Ick

[SuperBlackngold]

the rock n roll hall of fame in ohio says go fuck yourself

i say fuck them

[royraaijmakers]

that bass line is pretty bad ass!!

haha love it.

[MrPaulwaters]

cool drummer

[ackackadackmn]

@MrPaulwaters Bun E. Carlos! I remember a radio interview with Cheap Trick years ago where the host asked "is your name really Bun E. Carlos?" and he said "no, my real name is Bun Eduardo Carlos." (it isn't, btw)

[IrishStorrie]

One of the best re-makes ~ ever! :) These guys have always been one of the best bands. Even live they sound amazing. But, one of the best aspects is they weren't one of those "drama bands" that had a lot of internal fighting, or problems with drugs, or alcohol. Pure talent, and class, and a unique sound. They don't make them like these guys, anymore.

Pity....

[alcest35]

@IrishStorrie And the best of all, they are still around, still performing and just keep getting better! Your comments are right on about the dynamics of the band. That's why they are just so much fun to watch!

[SuperMrMalibog]

awsome

[BalletWatcher]

10000000 times better than the Elvis version!!!

[gramirez1814]

i miss this kind of music !!! excellent band!!!80's were the best times musically!!

[nflder1969]

@gramirez1814

The music today can't touch the 80's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gramirez1814]

@nflder1969 totally agree with you.

[livelifehight]

@nflder1969 your comparing it to the worst mainstream music in the history of music! of corse it's better.

[sarahthediva]

Reminds me of being twelve years old the summer before starting middle school and thinking Robin Zander was super hot!!!

[dahoss65]

They made Elvis proud

[winyguy]

@dahoss65 They sure do.

[marycockburn1]

@dahoss65 terrible

[DARKNEZZINC]

THE 80'S F*CKING ROCK !!

[tambourini]

Saw them perform this in the 80's. Love it! Thanks!

[TheZodiakCracker]

cheap trick is one of the greatest bands to hit off

[equipt4sound]

First comment. cool Awesome Cheap Trick video... Can Bun E. play the remote or what. Cracks me up over and over.
