I love the way that they've removed anything that vaguely resembled the melody of 'The Touch', and completely changed the chord progression while they were at it. The rapping gorilla was a nice touch too. No pun intended.
(The above sentences are sarcasm.)
Really? I thought you were telling the truth and how you confessed to how absolutley awesomeness it was.Quote:

Yes, I know what they were trying to do, but "nice" is still not even close to the adjective I would use.Quote:

Looks like the negative criticism has 'touched' Stan the wrong way:
Seriously, he should have tried to maintain the original inspirational tune of the original without trying to make it what he thinks would be 'hip' based on the TF1 sound track.Quote:
UPDATE!!!! Since we threw up this video, there's been a backlash of negative (and some positive) criticism of the new version of "The Touch". However, Stan Bush may not feel the same way -- the song creators have disabled embedding for the YouTube video (so we cannot show it on the frontpage here), and have also disabled comments on the actual video itself on YouTube.
UPDATE 2!!!!! All the information on the video has been removed. There is no longer any mention of their attempt to get the song in Revenge of the Fallen, no mention of getting hyped up for the movie, nothing. No explanation of the change of the song-title to "Sam's Theme" as we first reported. It is now simply called "The Touch Redux ala Linkin Park".
hmm, didn't see that coming.
Still, it was a rubbish revamp of what I thought was a great song in all its cheesey superiority.
It's alright, but the rapping cannot, IMO, beat the best Transformers-themed rap ever created.
