CHEAP TRICK - THE FLAME // FANTASTIC VERSION

[@suzyq4041]

My husband played this for me in a rough spot in our marriage, I had never heard it before…it speaks to me of his love for me…31 years now.

[@roberthenne2264]

We all have had rough spots. Yiur husbnd could not have picked a better song to convey his feelings. Wonderfi\ul you could go the distance. Marriage is a marathon, not a sprint. My wife and I have had our problems .........52 years late we are still here and I still listen to the love songs.

[@bradishear9369]

I saw Cheap Trick last night 10/20/23 in Modesto Ca, for the first time they were amazing for 1 1/2 hours, people danced, sang it didn’t matter on the age everybody was so joyous we all forgot about the world problems that surrounded us it was so good people my age 70 to young kids having the time of their lives is a beautiful sight to see thank you again Cheap Trick.

[@ChristopherSmith-tf4nr]

Would be incredible

[@mikeh.753]

Know what you are talking about. I saw them in 1977 at the Long Beach arena and I'm 59 now and remember it like it was yesterday. This song didn't come out til years later but they were absolutely amazing live in concert.

[@natalieflahive6964]

I saw them in 1979 at alpine valley Wisconsin!! It was an amazing experience!! Still remember it clearly

[@michellegonçalves7860]

Just saw them last month, Awesome band. Can't believe it's been 46 years since I started following and listening to their music. Wow.

[@marlenelyles]

I've loved them forever. This song brings back so many memories ..😊

[@Robert-fl9co]

Give me one day of life in the 1980s and I would willingly give up 100 days of life in these times. I remember that song, can I get emotional enough ? Those were better days. The turntables . The approachability of human beings. Paper maps that we knew we could find our way. Phones were available when we needed them. People were not walking around like zombies staring at these things in their hands.

[@Floridamarty]

Amen to that!

[@Robert-fl9co]

I remember the summer of 1979. I was 16. And I remember this live album that had the song I want you to want me. It was a very big hit. But the biggest hit of all was Blondie's heart of glass. I remember a pack of cigarettes was about $ 1.00 , then we could buy them in machines. The stores did not ask for id either. I could buy beer at 17. And there were not surveillance cameras everywhere like these times.

[@johnjeffreys6440]

that's his name, Robin?

[@banditdarval9401]

I think Robin is originally from Beloit WI. I'D never claim Rockford If I were them.

[@Valkyrie-p7y]

[@jackierussell1275]

I remember when CNN was the only choice for cable news back in the early 90s and I could not believe Rockford, Illinois was on the list of one of the worst places to live in America, being from Illinois and the list consisted of only probably 6 cities/ towns. I cannot recall the others in the list.

Had the opportunity to see them a couple of times over the years. Always a great show, even with anticipating each song they never get old and always deliver. Robin's voice is timeless. They are one of the great bands that are always fun. Listening to them brings back a lot of fond memories from the past.

I saw them in Florida - Robin Zander's voice is the best male voice in the biz. This was my wedding song!

I don’t know about that. . . . I might give him like the 4th or 5th spot though perhaps. . . I feel like Geoff Tate around the same time period was untouchable.

[@michaelgreene2920]

I was fortunate enough to get to see this band live, when this song was released..... They are a world class act....i saw them in Atlanta, GA..... At Six Flags Over GA..... Around this time in space, i got to see many , many bands live pretty much at their peak.... If you liked concerts, it was one of the best times to be alive..... And everybody went, a lot of them were held in Macon and Atlanta..... The concert's were straight up, non stop party's.... There would be so much weed smoke in there, you just about needed a respirator to breathe and it would burn your eyes red like they were through..... I was very fortunate to have been there for the ride..... It was sweet.......
