My favorite Cheap Trick song, ever. I really enjoy how stealth subversive they were-they wrote a song promoting suicide and made it so silly and funny, nobody ever thought to ban them.
the intro sounds like something sonic youth could have ripped of on their records. i don't think they would really site cheap trick as an influence though. two different bands
@paolorossifan2006 I've seen Cheap Trick in each decade since the '70's (7 times and counting) and saw Sonic Youth '85, '86 and '90...Cheap Trick is way way louder than SY! Luv 'em both!
Wow, The Astrodome Flame video posted a month before this one had 84 comments and Budokan Auffie has 14, lol. It should be the other way around. This is the kick A** song! *Sigh*
How could anyone not think this is awesome? Thanks Cheap Trick! I respect you for putting up official footage! Not only is it legit, but the video and sound quality is SO much better than the kind of stuff most people put up.
Someone thought this was not awesome? Hard to believe, how can you not like it.C.T.s best stuff was from the first three albums, including this! Never get tired of hearing their old stuff!!
Agreed. But their new album is sounding surprisingly awesome. I can't wait to hear more of it. Sorta sounds like Motley Crue though. Still sounds like the best stuff they've done for a while. They're on Conan O'Brien on September 1st!
Thanks for posting this, I just made a video for this great track, check it out.

How come nobody can make concert videos that look like this today? I love the slow edits and the multi-layered images.

gotta love the contrast of the upbeat melody with the terribly dark lyrics

@boardskins Nirvana was just Cheap Trick warmed over with some Sabbath mixed in.

@marvy1118 please don't ever mention Cheap Trick and Nirvana together again. Nirvana weren't qualified to be a pimple on Cheap Trick's ass.

Great fucking song. Not a fan of suicide but man this song kicks so much ass it could be about Jesus and I'd love it.

The chorus of this song is just a more punked out version of "Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts club band". Great tune.

This is just a blast of total power from that very strange universe that is Cheap Trick.

This is the shit. It makes me wish that Thom Yorke would stop being such a prude and put his hair extensions back in.

CT's last 4 albums have been awesome. I loved their latest from first listen and was not surprised. Once they left Epic, they were back to form.
