Just found this on youtube while looking for spectre general/kick axe stuff. Never knew about this. Some of you probably do but some might not. Its John Farnham singing Nothins gonna stand in our way for a movie soundtrack called Savage Streets. Pretty cool!

John Farnham's version actually predates Transformers: The Movie by a couple of years, so it's a pretty cool Australian link to TF:TM. :)

Indeed Sky Shadow, I agree plus Ol' Johnny did a pretty darn good rendition, at the time, I reckon. ;)
Say what you will about the man, but he had an awesome set of vocal cords on him, that's for sure. :cool:

A damn nice find Scattorshot, cheers dude. :D

that's awesome. I never knew about the John Farnham connection! :D

From TFwiki:

Nothin's Gonna Stand in Our Way" is a song that was written for John Farnham and covered by Kick Axe, under the name Spectre General,

Speaking of Australian connections, in the Sabretron 2004 TF convention in Sydney, one of the exclusive Autobot Chainmaster toys was called "Spectre"; so called because of his spiritual affinity with the Aboriginal Dreaming. According to Spectre's Tech Specs Bio his function is "General," hence he is "General Spectre." :D ;)
